#parallel_universe

ay guyssssss it’s meeeeeee the ex-chanbaek hater lollllll! THE BETTER ASIAN! Anyways ariel was kidnapped and will never come back! (jk she’s just lazy so she wants me to do this theory since I’M SO SMART AND I CAME UP WITH THIS THEORY!) I’m kidding... or am I? DUN DUN DUUUUUN! Anyways, getting straight to the point-ish... I’m not good at starting these things... 

well... in short... MAH HUSBAND BAEKHYUN IS A GOOD GUY IN A COMPLICATED WAY! So like... the MV hasn’t come out yet and we literally only have like three trailers to work with so... I’M SORRY IF I AM WRONG WHEN THE ACTUAL MV COMES OUT! 

Anyways there are hashtags with #total_eclipse, #parallel_universe, and #RF_05.

So let’s start with the easiest... #RF_05. the secret meaning to this weird letter thing is....

THIS! jk... I don’t know what it stand for... sorry for wasting time... or this can mean that they are making this repackage for their dear fans to recharge their fangirling/fanboyish souls... bad joke... sorry

Moving on to the actual kinda better point--#parallel_universe! You know... first Gfriend with their parallel universe theory and now EXO! TBH having experience with this type of theory makes this a little bit easier! Ok so pretty much, I think that this new MV is gonna be linked to monster and everything after that! I would try going deeper and say that all the MV are linked but... Ain’t nobody got time for dat! In this theory they are four separate universes but monster and total eclipse are linked and KoKo Bop and Lucky one are linked. Let’s start with the notorious baekhyun saves them at the end of monster. 

mhmm, this boy can save me any day! Anyways in this, he practically “betrays” them to save them in the end. In this, he sides with the bad guy to ultimately free all his buds. In lucky one, which was the second MV they released the same day, baekhyun still be there trying to save all his buds but he does it by staying on their side but they end up all trapped. 

sad... 

How does this link to The War? Well, Lucky one and KoKo Bop are actually similar in one singular way! Baekhyun is there with them! But they are all trapped in their euphoria with no way out because... they don’t want to leave. Unlike lucky one where they are forcefully trapped, they are willingly staying. Even though that differs the idea of being trapped when baekhyun is there with them is still consistent. 

Now how does this new MV link with this theory? well, in one of their teaser, the concept of being trapped is kinda hinted in a way?

Look at them, having fun in their small cramped room. Doesn’t it kind of remind you of little hamsters that you keep in a cage? 

Now here comes the more mind blown thing! In the other two music videos, baekhyun plays an important role!

“Failure to obtain target’s orb of light”

The enemies have yet to capture baekhyun and in this case, since the bad guys probably brainwashed the members (I mean look at their eyes! It might be aesthetic but just go with it cuz it’s a dang theory) baekhyun is probably fighting off the opposing side to free them!

See, his orb is gone and he is seemingly darker than the other members meaning that they have yet to get them. He left them so he could ultimately save them instead of getting all trapped. Baekhyun is probably gonna start a dang war to save his friends (DA WARRRRR)! 

Lastly, where does the last hashtag fit in. #total_eclipse. Baekhyun is all darkened out and he controls light. If he controls light then he can create an absence of light as well if he doesn’t use his power. 

Baekhyun created the eclipse. Maybe he’s using it for a sign or something but like i said... it’s kinda hard to find stuff off of 3 short teasers... 

Or what if baekhyun is the bad guy in this universe hence why he isn’t there with his comrades. Maybe that’s why he’s darkened out, some sort of darker force took him. Hence why he is dark, what if him being dark symbolizes something overtaking him which explains why the darkness is covering the his light (solar eclipse). What if in this universe they are trying to save baekhyun like how he did before?

Who knows, we’ll find out soon when the MV comes!
