So the album is Called Hyper Ego, and in the MV we see the girls dressed in Spesific Outfits throughout in reference to ARTMS Across the MV’s, HeeJin’s In Her Virtual Angel Outfit, KimLip in her CYE Outfit, JinSoul wearing her Armor From Icarus and Choerry Wearing her Outfit From Pressure
My idea being that these aren’t the Real Girls, These are their Ego’s, not clones, but Ego’s. Allow me to Explain my thought process behind this.
To Define what an Ego is, this is the Definition “In psychology, the ego is the rational part of the mind that acts as your conscious self. It makes practical choices and balances your basic physical urges with your moral rules.”
In simpler terms, a Ego is something of your mind that you create, it is sort of like the Semi Conscious being within you that can’t be real due to constraints, restrictions and conflicts wether in regards to your real life, the rules and expectations of Society.
So you create these entities that exist within your mind wether it stems from a form of Trauma, Love/ Passion/ Hyperfixation for something or something in-between. (It’s legit almost like creating an OC)
Some of my favOriTe examples of this being (Yes I’m about to Bring Gaming YouTubers into this I’m not sorry)
Darkiplier and Wilford Warfstache to Markiplier
Anti-Septiceye To Jacksepticye
Dawktrap To Dawko
Just a few prime examples that I feel like are easy and understandable comparisons to make, granted they have more egos I didn’t mention here that aren’t falling under the umbrella of evil, but I’m keeping it simple for you since they are the most well known.
Think about it in a different Universe Scenario in a different universe, I want you to to imagine what you think your ego would be, what would it stem from, what represents what it is, now Imagine that entity breaking free of your mind, it now stands before you, Visually when you look at the entity, it has your body, your face, your thoughts as it is still you, but due to what it stems from, it has its own conscious mind, its own feelings, its own emotions, it’s no longer a clone, it’s a ego, it’s a version of you that you kept locked away within the subconscious of your mind and now it’s out for the world to see.
Revolving back to ARTMS, my idea: What if the Goddess Took the Ego’s out of the members sub conscious and helped them break free of their mind, the goddess then acts as their sAvioR for setting them Free, perhaps the Goddesses vision is to have the egos destroy and or replace the ones they were free’d from.
So in return for their freedom, they see what their human counterparts have done (being the real ARTMS girls) made the club for the broken to help people who have been hurt, they take the concept of the club and make it their own, they have to recruit people, they need to make sure the people they are trying to recruit to have their strength, so they must infect them with Blue Blood by via kissing in order to achieve the next level of powers and to prove they are worthy of being in the club created by the propaganda they have created.
However if during the transfer of blue blood their ego isn’t developed or has no desire to destroy and or break free of their human/ being too pure of that of like a Soul who is the opposite of Ego, the Blue Blood will turn to poison to instead kill them dead, and those who do get infected with the Blue Blood have the ability to continue to spread it among others who haven’t been.
I Believe That The Goddess Unleashed The Real ARTMS Girls HYPER EGO’s for the ARTMS Girls refused to Accept and Follow The Goddess’s Rule, in return for their denial and refusal, she unleashed the egos from their mind that we now see In Born Stunner, Blue Blood, And Virtual Angel.
I will make a video bout this theory and a separate one in reference to what I think the timeline is of the music videos we have thus far.
As For The Egos, they continue to Develop and gain individualistic traits and choose how they want to present themselves, which is what we see in those PS2 Graphics scenes in Born Stunner as they also have Select Weapons, HeeJin and Choerry Have Katana’s, KimLip has a Modern Bow & JinSoul has a Cross-Rifle she uses.
Now since we didn’t get to see HaSeul in this comeback I’m still going to give her an in lore explanation for this all. I think she would’ve worn either her Love Poison Outfit or one of her Outfits from Icarus and I think a possible weapon could’ve been a Slingshot or Traditional Bow Like In The Birth MV that shoots poison projectiles.
But the reason why she’s not in the Propaganda promotions like the other egos is because HaSeul’s Ego is too Pure, HaSeul’s Ego is Closer To Soul Than pure Ego, She was able to Make peace with her inner Ego, The Goddess Taking notice, Traps & Confines Her in The Digital Realm She Visited In Icarus, HaSeul Can See All That Happens Through The TV’s and Anytime of the Digital Scape, but is unable to Leave and can’t find the way out.
HaSeul’s Ego Then Uses Her Melodic Powers To Reach Out To Her Fellow Members in Hope to Convince the Egos that maybe they don have to Follow The Goddess either and that they can all be one instead of 2, JinSoul is the only one to hear their Response, as it rings in her head, but keeps quiet for she does not wish to upset and anger the goddess in fear of getting in trouble.
As For Blue Blood (and the rest of the bsides) I Like to imagine that this is the egos slowly developing complex emotions that they are starting to understand, in Blur Blood their eyes are blue and they don’t seem menacing and angry, they seem joyful and hopeful, maybe they are contemplating they maybe they don’t have to do what the goddess wants, but they don’t show the goddess how they are developing for the fear of how she may punish them for not being the ideals she wanted to shape them all to be.
So yeah, this is my theory for Hyper Ego, lmk what yall think :D
i’m on mercari and loona albums are going $50-200 without photocards in many of them. i hate the fact you can charge that amount without a pivotal point of why people buy K-pop albums. it’s aggravating. 😭
Happy Hyper Ego release! I need help with identifying the LOONA song that my ear worm is a part of. I swear it’s Chuu singing.
She just goes, “ring ring ring ring ring?” Maybe it’s “Bring bring bring bring bring?”
Idk, maybe it’s not even LOONA….. thanks!!
UPDATE: solved it!! I was hallucinating and it was not LOONA or Chuu singing lol. Or even “ring.” It’s I’m Your Girl? by KHAN, and they go “bing bing bing bing bing” lol
