     Have you listened to ‘six degrees of separation’ by The Script? If not I suggest you listen to it first and then come back here. The rest may proceed.

             

      F.T.Island came up with their Korean version of their Japanese song which has an English title ‘Puppy’. That’s a mouthful! But really got me itching was the music video which talks about Lee Hongki’s search for his puppy. PUPPY! If any canine is to be paired with Hongki it should be Jolie from ‘You are beautiful’ 

      Aside from that the emotional roller coaster which Hongki undergoes reminded me of six degrees of separation. How you ask? Well Imma tell you, Chingu, so read on!

      The music video begins with the camera man showing us the time and also the type of literature Lee Hongki indulges in… 

  

‘Whisper to the slaughter’?, ‘The punch and Judy murders’?, ‘Haleway House’? ‘The Spanish cape mystery’ and finally ‘The Sarab murder case’. What are you reading, young man. I often thought Hongki would indulge in fashion and nail art magazines….. Mostly nail art magazines but not this…. I mean what…………. Are these books even real?

Never mind that cause, Hongki is awake and under goes the six degree of separation- the old Hongki style. 

First degree of separation: Realization and panic setting in.

     Lee Hongki realises that his puppy is no longer with him and his panic mode rises towards the sky. He looks at the ground and notices that his little puppy has left clues for him . . .  

This puppy probably thinks it is Korea’s Blue from Blue’s Clues or something. Somebody ought to catch it before it skedaddles into a book or what-not!

Back to the human, Lee Hongki goes into search mode and asks his friends to search with him……

Few agree

While few other give only a ‘Bow Wow Wow’s worth to it. But leave to search for the puppy anyway

      Hongki gives a chance at searching for the puppy who he feels has left him for good. Good old Hongki begives to whimper 

And calls out the name of the puppy, ‘puppy’. 

Kudos to the naming committee there!

Second degree of seprartion: indulgence in vain distractions

     After torturing oneself over the disappearance of another, Hongki barely comes out of his is-this-really-happening-for-real-I-mean-for-real-bruh phase. Below is a picture of him in that so called phase. 

      Hongki experiences mood swings as his face suddenly goes all powerful and suave looking. An example, 

      His friends who have obviously been helping him all this while are in the make-shift garage ripping up some tunes. Hongki’s rockstar alter persona takes over and he begins to jam with this fellow Chinguduels. 

      And just then, and just when everything was going oh so smoothly, Hongki accidentally puts his feelings into the tracks. 

      Ah damn it all! The feel has been ruined and the band breaks out for the session. Fellow Chingudeuls realize that this puppy could possibly get them apart….. meanwhile, Hongki 

      What are you saying, no he was not. He was jamming a second ago. What do you mean all day?

Third degree of separation: Hoarding and revisiting memories 

     A typical behaviour I believe but not my place to speak, Hongki finds the custom made dog food for his puppy and emotionally breaks down. 

      He begins to reminisce the times he spend giving food to his puppy and occasionally eating it with the puppy as well. 

      His fellow chingudeuls decide to take matters into their own hands and for the sake of Hongki and the band as whole, they call the police to file a missing pet complain. 

      OH! Oh never mind. That was just me talking.

Fourth degree of separation: pretending to be someone else

      Paranoia gets the best of Hongki as he decides to follow the –if-I-can’t-find-Puppy-Imma-be-Puppy route. 

      At this stage, Hongki looks desperate and willing to go through any extent to find the puppy named Puppy. 

And this stage I wonder who let the puppy out in the first place.

      Meanwhile, fellow chingudeuls show their concern by jamming some music- AGAIN and distracting him. 

      The plan mildly works but only pummels him down to the next degree

Fifth degree of separation: on the verge of complete madness

     

      Hongki sinks lower than ever and decides to ask people around if they are his Puppy. Hongki couldn’t have picked a better time to ask then when the pizza delivery girl enters the scene

      Personally I would never order from a place where the uniform is such as this and especially if the girl speaks dog. Hongki and the others are quick to realise that this music video is taking a turn of a weirder kind and try to manage the situation. 

      The girl however tries to play the role of a pizza delivery girl to the tee!

      Hongki reminds himself that this is not the puppy he wanted and quickly changes the puppy’s owner and jumps back into sadness. 

Hongki is seen once again to be searching for his puppy. 

Yes, all day, ladies and gentlemen, ALL DAY. In Korea, the sun never sets, it is always bright outside. All this sunshine and colours unfortunately brings Hongki to his last degree

Sixth degree of separation: Delusional to hysteria

      Like every good search party, Hongki comes back to the scene of the crime, the place where it all began, where he lost it all…… 

      All sense breaks loose and Hongki embarks on the final stage- being delusional- He asks the ultimate question. 

      And then he and we see this. 

I DON’T UNDERSTAND !  IS THIS SOME KIND OF TWISTED FANFIC THAT I AM NOT AWARE OF? IT IS LEE JAEJIN DRESSED AS A PUPPY. WHY DIDN’T HE DO THAT IN THE BEGINNING OF THE MUSIC VIDEO. It would have resolved all the tension Hongki felt. But now Hongki is Delusional and on the verge of Hysteria as the music video comes to an end.

So what do you think about today’s review. I really want to know what you have gotta say about this

BOW WOW WOW TO YOU!
