Side A: The Tale of a Divine Being Falling in Love with a Human

The MV for "Cool with you" by NewJins explores the theme of love between a divine being and a human, portrayed in a modern yet enigmatic manner.

The Two Women and the Elevator

The story unfolds as one woman closely follows another, almost like a shadow, yet the people around them seem unaware of her presence. Upon entering an elevator together, they are joined by a man. The woman in black observes the man and the woman in front of her, and we catch a glimpse of two other individuals who seem to fall in love as she leaves. It is evident that the woman in black holds an otherworldly influence, possibly a divine being responsible for triggering love in those nearby.

The Woman's Loneliness and Divine Abilities

While the woman in black can make others fall in love with just a glance, she herself remains isolated, seated alone in apparent dignity yet profound solitude. A group of girls observes her, suggesting they might also be otherworldly beings, able to see her when ordinary humans cannot. Another scene shows her standing amidst a crowd in front of an artwork where love seems to blossom around her, but she remains unnoticed, invisible to the world.

Encountering the Man

Suddenly, a man appears behind her. She turns to him passionately, but he fails to recognize her presence and walks away, leaving her heartbroken.

The artwork in this scene is reminiscent of the painting "L'Amour et Psyché" displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, which depicts the moment when Eros falls in love with Psyche, a mortal. This suggests that the woman in black may be a divine being capable of causing a mere mortal to fall in love.

The Divide Between Divine and Human Love

Despite her constant presence, the woman remains invisible to the man. This emphasizes the vast divide between the divine and human realms – a distance that even true love cannot overcome. Love eludes her, and the man she adores remains oblivious to her existence. The MV beautifully captures the unbridgeable gap between them, like parallel lines that can never intersect.

The Desperation and Pity of Onlookers

Several girls appear singing in sympathy as the woman despairs, realizing what is to come. The man's smile fades upon seeing the woman, and he turns to the woman behind her. It becomes apparent that the woman in black's divine abilities have returned, causing the man to fall in love with the human woman near her. The man, seemingly of a higher existence than the divine woman, leaves her behind.

The Woman's Surrender and Acceptance

Left alone, the woman faces the onlookers with a stoic expression before undressing and standing naked in the rain. This symbolic act represents her surrendering the unique powers associated with her black attire and embracing vulnerability, returning to her original state of insignificance, willingly sacrificing her divine nature for the sake of her love for a mortal.

Side B: The Conclusion of a Divine Being's Sacrifice for Love

Side B continues the story from Side A and reveals the consequences of the divine being's choice to love a human.

The Human Woman and the Divine Girls

The now-human woman ascends the stairs to find the man and eventually becomes his lover. They hold hands, able to gaze at each other freely. However, like many mythic love stories, the happiness is short-lived, often leading to tragic endings rather than fulfilling happily-ever-afters.

The Return of the Divine Woman's Powers

Suddenly, a man appears behind the lovers. He looks at the man and woman in a disapproving manner, then shifts his focus to the woman. It becomes clear that the divine woman's powers have returned, influencing the man to fall for the human woman. The divine woman's powers overpower the mortal love between the man and the human woman.

The Heartbreaking Finale

The man leaves the lovers as if fulfilling his duty, and the divine woman is left heartbroken once again. The expression on her face is one of resignation or unwavering determination, leaving viewers to wonder if she has accepted her fate or remains resolute to face an uncertain future.

 

In conclusion, "Cool with you" masterfully weaves the classic theme of divine love for a human with a modern twist. The MV, akin to a short film, skillfully explores the complexities of love, choices, and the barriers between divine and human realms. It leaves viewers to ponder whether the tale will unfold as a tragic love story or if there is a chance for love to triumph over all, just like in mythical love stories of old.
