➤In "Dionysus" RM carries THE THYRSUS STAFF (Mic) with a pinecone on top of it, and it's wrapped in ivy/vine leaves, symbolising his role as the 'Dionysian figure. It represents power, prosperity, and high obsession with productivity, fertility and creativity.
➤RM's FIVE CLAWED-DRAGON Mic from "BTS: COMEBACK LIVE" symboliises A King/Emperor's Supreme Power, Strength, authority, prestige, and good fortune.
➤SKELTON-ROOT MIC: Core self, unchanging truth. The skeleton also provides the foundational support and protection for the body, representing strength, stability, and the "backbone" of existence.
In 'BTS: The Return, RM talks about the impermanence of time. I also see his Hooligan mic to represent the mentality to keep rooted to him/ themselves despite the impermanence of life.
The roots: grounding, stability, strength, and connection to heritage. Heritage to birth, but more so a deep connection to self, and creativity.
And since it's their comeback, also A REBIRTH!
RM's Hooligan lyrics "𝑌𝑒𝑎ℎ, 𝑤𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑠, 𝑔𝑜𝑛𝑛𝑎 𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑎 𝑏𝑖𝑔𝑔𝑒𝑟 𝑚𝑜𝑝 ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒”, Mop - roots are attached to his mic. The roots are going to transmit sound from his mic and spread it further and deeper.... WITHOUT LIMIT - UNCONFORMED!
"𝑊𝑒 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑒𝑠𝑠" Makes me think of ↑Dionysus figure - the untamed, drunk on art Bangtan
