⊹ MV 02: Multiply

✧ Concept & Theme: The video unfolds like a noir-inspired movie, centered around Lorien in a hotel room, deep in thought and reflection. Starting with him drinking whiskey, the scene feels intimate and introspective, setting the tone for the song's themes of temptation, excess, and the overwhelming emotions that multiply in a complex relationship. As the video progresses, neon lights and flashing signs illuminate his emotional descent, blending surreal and real moments that make the viewer question what's real and what's a reflection of his inner turmoil.
✧ Visual Aesthetic: Dark, moody, and cinematic. The hotel room is dimly lit, with shadows playing on the walls, and neon signs outside casting colorful lights through the window. The video feels like a blend of noir and modern romance, with moments of surrealism—such as reflections in the mirror or dreamlike sequences. The flashing neon sign adds a sense of chaos and instability, matching the intense feelings described in the song.
✧ Symbolism & Hidden Meanings:
• Whiskey symbolizes the attempt to escape, numb the pain, and cope with the overwhelming emotions in the relationship.

    •    Flashback sequences: As he drinks, moments from the relationship play out in a hazy, dreamlike fashion—love, fights, passion—all flashing before him like a series of disconnected memories.
    •    The reflection in a mirror showing two versions of Lorien—one calm, one chaotic—representing the duality of his emotions.
    •    Neon sign flashes getting faster and brighter, representing the increasing intensity of his feelings.
    •    A slow-motion sequence of Lorien walking through the hotel hallways, his footsteps echoing, symbolizing his isolation and the emotional weight he carries.
✧ Choreography & Performance: The choreography is more about subtle, emotional movements—Lorien's actions feel deliberate but introspective. There's a sense of quiet intensity, with every gesture carrying weight. His interactions with the camera are almost like a performance in a film, emphasizing the isolation and inner conflict he feels.

⊹ MV 03: Floral Sense (ft. Zian

✧ Concept & Theme: "Floral Sense" is a delicate yet deeply emotional song that captures the fragility of love, the passage of time, and the bittersweet nature of fleeting moments. The music video tells a story of two people who find beauty in their connection but struggle with the realization that love, like flowers, is destined to bloom and wither. It explores themes of impermanence, longing, and quiet devotion—a love that lingers even as it fades.
✧ Visual Aesthetic:
• A soft, dreamlike color palette featuring muted pastels, earthy tones, and faded golden light to evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia.
• The cinematography leans into slow, intimate shots with delicate close-ups of hands brushing, flowers wilting, and sunlight filtering through sheer curtains.
• A mix of real-world scenery and surreal, floral-infused dreamscapes, blurring the line between memory and reality.
✧ Symbolism & Hidden Meanings:
• A field of blooming flowers: The vast, open field represents the early stages of love—pure, untainted, and filled with potential. It is a space untouched by time, where Lorien and Zian exist freely, surrounded by nature's beauty.
    •    Falling petals & wilting flowers: As the story progresses, flowers begin to fall from their stems, symbolizing the inevitable changes that come with time. Their love, like nature, is subject to cycles of growth and decay.
    •    Water imagery (rain, mist, and reflections in puddles): Water serves as a symbol of emotions, cleansing, and fleeting time. A puddle reflecting Zian's face before a raindrop distorts the image signifies how love is beautiful but can never remain exactly the same.
    •    The glass room filled with flowers: The glass symbolizes the fragility of love—beautiful, transparent, but capable of breaking under pressure. Initially, the glass space feels safe and untouched, but as the video progresses, tiny cracks form, growing larger with each moment of hesitation and unspoken words between them.
    •    A clock with missing hands: There is a scene where Lorien glances at a clock, but it has no hands—representing how love can make time feel both frozen and fleeting. The absence of hands also suggests an impending sense of loss, as if their time together is slipping away without warning.
    •    A single petal carried by the wind: In the final moments, as Zian walks away, Lorien holds onto a petal that is soon swept away by the breeze—symbolizing that even when love fades, it never truly disappears. It lingers in memories, much like the fragrance of a flower long after it has fallen.
✧ Key Scenes:
• Opening Scene: Lorien stands in a vast field of flowers, bathed in golden sunlight, as petals float gently around him. The world feels untouched, almost like a painting. He glances around, sensing someone nearby, but the camera does not reveal Zian just yet—building anticipation.
• Zian's Introduction: She is first seen behind sheer white curtains inside a glass greenhouse filled with wildflowers. Her silhouette is blurred by the soft light filtering through, making her seem like a vision—someone real yet unreachable. The moment he steps closer, the curtains sway, revealing only an empty space where she once stood.
• The Glass Room: Lorien and Zian finally meet in a transparent room overflowing with delicate white and pink roses. They share quiet, unspoken moments—hands brushing, heads resting against each other—yet there is an underlying tension, a sense that their time together is slipping away. As they move, fine cracks begin forming on the glass walls, symbolizing the delicate balance of their love.
• Rainfall Scene: A soft drizzle begins as they stand apart in the flower field. Zian closes her eyes as the rain soaks through her dress, while Lorien watches her from a distance, hesitant. The raindrops weigh down the flowers, causing petals to fall—mirroring the heaviness in their hearts.
• Mirrored Reflections & Shattered Illusions: In one surreal moment, Lorien and Zian's reflections are shown in a puddle, but as the water ripples, their images blur and distort, symbolizing how perceptions of love can shift with time.
• Final Shot: The field of flowers has mostly withered, except for a single bloom standing untouched. Zian walks away, her figure gradually fading into the mist. Lorien remains, holding a petal between his fingers before a sudden gust of wind carries it away. The camera lingers on the petal drifting into the sky before cutting to black—leaving the audience with a lingering sense of beauty, loss, and quiet acceptance.

The Parental Advisory label subtly hints at raw, honest lyricism.
