RIIZE 라이즈 【Insomnia】

Korean comments on this video

What happened

RIIZE’s official channel announces that “Insomnia” is out now.

More context

In the Korean comments

One commenter treats the whale as the music video’s unresolved key, asking, in translation, “Is the whale Eunseok, or is the whale Anton? Whoever the whale represents, it feels like a sad ending.” Another asks the official channel to publish an interpretation, giving viewers a specific mystery to follow while watching.

What the words mean

화양연화 (hwayangyeonhwa) literally evokes “flower-like years,” but means the most beautiful time of one’s life. The comment “This is my hwayangyeonhwa” uses the poetic expression as exaggerated fandom language, elevating this release into a personally defining beautiful moment.

This song could be loved by the general public too if it just got a little word-of-mouth buzz. It would be such a shame for it to get buried. BRIIZE need to do their part, and the company needs to step up and move together with us too ㅜㅜ

No, I really need an analysis of the music video. So is the whale = Eunseok, or is the whale = Anton? In the end, it feels like a sad ending no matter who the whale represents, so my heart is being torn to shreds..ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Please keep RIIZE close and united...
