Where is the "we CAN live."
Ivan: "I can't live without you, but you can live without me."
Hyuna: "I can live without you, but you can't live without me."
Sua: "Neither of us could live without each other, but it was better for both of us that it was me."
I just love till and I randomly got obsessed with him (also he reminds me of myself)
Totally normal about him
+ your reasoning in the reblogs
guys Ivan is alive because he is adopted on February the 14th. Do you know what else is February 14th? valentines day! So with the power of love, he would come back.
Also It's dracalora birthday! And she's a vampire! Do yk what that means. That she's a vampire then Ivan is a vampire so that explains why he is alive. Also he has vampire teeth.
That means that till would be alive because Ivan had vampire magic so he would make till come alive. And with the power of friendship everyone will become alive (also become vampires)
Anyways happy birthday dracalora and happy adoption day Ivan
Till's guitar represents his state of being.
(ill try to keep this short and simple)
in round 2 Till has his guitar that is actually a lower class alien named Freddie. During the round Till breaks the guitar, therefore killing Freddie, to symbolize his rebellion (and also for Mizi to notice him).
In round 6 Till doesn't have a guitar. Mizi is gone and Till feels hopeless.
Till in this round low-key is just giving up. If it weren't for Ivan's sacrifice, Till would've lost.
But thankfully Ivan's sacrifice was just what Till needed to get his rock back on š¤šø.
In the final round (round 7) Till has his guitar back. I couldn't find any confirmation on what his guitar is but it seems to be a hologram. Holography is a technique that records and displays a 3D image using light waves and laser beams (to put it simply).
Now that Mizi (his light) is by his side Till will be alive š Till is alive š
dressed for a wedding on your own funeral
Round 7 is killing me...not only me
I'll start with my thoughts on the song itself, then break down some of the lyrics.
So, "Nowhere" is quite a bit different from Ivan's other songs, mostly in regards to the melody and his singing. His voice is a lot more... flat, and the pitch and length of the notes vary a lot less. In "Cure" and "Black Sorrow," there's a lot more variance: Ivan's voice goes from soft and low, singing shorter notes, to louder and higher, holding long notes, et cetera.
In Nowhere, the notes are typically shorter, and tend to stay in the same general area on the scale. Ivan's tone stays very consistent; in his other songs, it goes from calm and collected to full of emotion and feelings. He sounds a lot more monotone in Nowhere, and not just because he's singing quietly. He's not entirely apathetic; there's still a lot of emotion in his voice. But it's muted. Numb.
The only line that lacks this somewhat monotone, apathetic tone is "In love with you, when you were mine." This line is EVERYWHERE, and plays in the background of the ENTIRE TRACK.
And all of this kind of makes sense. "Black Sorrow" and "Cure" were both declarations of Ivan's love, and his feelings for Till. They were meant to be heard; they were meant to have an audience in Till. Ivan was projecting his emotions outwards.
"Nowhere" was not meant to be heard by anyone but Ivan himselfānot even Till. It represented Ivan's internal thoughts, ones he would never say to anyone elseāsort of how like someone might find certain things about a friend or significant other annoying, but choose not to say anything despite thinking it. Ivan is tired, and perhaps even a bit annoyed. He's wondering why Till doesn't return his feelings, and likely, wondering why he himself continues to love Till despite that.
Now, onto the lyrics (English translation b/c my Korean is awful):
That's just the kind of kid he is, so laugh Laugh, because he can't do anything No one cares about someone like him There's nowhere in the world for him to rest
It's been stated (see image below) that Ivan feels like he cannot be lovedāthat he's undeserving of it, or just doesn't have the qualifications. These lyrics are Ivan speaking about himself. Ivan is unable to get Till to return his feelings ("no one cares about someone like him"), and he is also, ultimately, unable to save Till ("Laugh, because he can't do anything"). To make this second thing worse, it happened not once, but TWICE: first when Ivan couldn't get Till to leave with him, and then when his actions in Round 6 ended up seemingly being for nothing in Round 7.
Another bit of the lyrics is as such:
Worse and worse this painful wound I become more and more numb
Ivan is slowly becoming more and more apathetic, and resigned to his fate, saying that "this always happens to me." Even the song's title is a reference to this: there's nowhere for Ivan to find solace, and all of "this" is going nowhereā"this" being Ivan's relationship with Till. Ivan is resigned to his fate of loving Tillāalmost certainly more than he loves himselfāun"till" the end: until death.
Can we just talk about the connections between the scoring for rounds 1, 3, and 6 like come on Vivinos you didn't have to do this š
SPOILERS FOR ROUND 6 (the outcome of rounds 1 and 3 are fairly obvious)
The fact that Till and Ivan's scores in their winning rounds are exactly 1 point apart Vivinos when I catch you Vivinosā
