Lookit my skzskz #soulbeam performance featuring a background graphic with #skzRedMoon and #skzBlueMoon

I've watched the Karma trailer a few times and scrolled through endless gifs on Tumblr already and I am pleased.
Delightfully Aussie bit at the end with #BangChan's "hip hip"
(I've heard that when one person says "hip hip" and everyone responds with "hooray" it's an Aussie thing that can mystify non-Aussies. I genuinely have no idea if this is true.)
The #skzRed and #skzBlue is subtle this time but jumps out at me because I'm looking for it, I guess. The main thing is how integrated the two colours are now. No longer mostly-red or mostly-blue. Instead there's an even mix of both. Like they've found a balance.
Channie's blue eye surrounded by red makeup, while he's in red or blue circles.
After acquiring some of the Japanese #skz releases, I looked at my shelf of skz albums and realised that I had at least one version of all the main Korean releases except for #InLife and #Oddinary.
Um.
I now have at least one version of all skz's main Korean releases.
Oddinary is available in blue and red versions. Kinda want to get the red version because it feels incomplete to have only the blue.
(argh I am such a sucker for this stuff)

They're doing the red/blue thing in this #Levanter dance practice video.
They all have at least one blue thing and at least one red thing on them, except maybe for #BangChan and #Hyunjin ?? I can only see blue on them.

✂️ #BangChan talking about his coloured lamp and the colours associated with specific songs
* "District 9" is green
* "Mirror" is changing like a rainbow
* "Awaken" is red
* "Rock" is yellow
* "You're Doing Well" is blue
I'm not sure which song is "You're Doing Well" because there isn't a skz song with that name in English, but I think it might be "Grow Up"

what the fuck
what the fucking fuck
i thought this was some kinda augmented reality thing at the #skzDominateSaoPaulo show
but it's ... an inflatable??
the way it writhes as it inflates. this is amazing and creepy and i love it so much
(also noting the heavy emphasis on red and blue, with the blue costumes and the strong red lighting. it's like the combination of the red and the blue is what creates the giant)
(at some point I will get back to the red and blue analysis because it's still simmering in my brain)
I'm forming a theory about what red and blue represent in #skzLore. I had started a # skzRedBlue hashtag a while ago but it didn't seem to be quite the right hashtag, so I got rid of it.
Going to reinstitute it, sort of. But as separate hashtags #skzRed and #skzBlue, probably as replacements for the blue team and red team tags. Because the teams aren't quite so fixed, maybe, but the colors seem to be fairly consistent in their associations.
I want to collect some more data points and smoosh them around in my brain for a bit before attempting to share it fully.
But the gist is:
Blue = security, stability, peace, loyalty, reliabilty, trust. might also be too safe, not exciting enough
Red = danger, risk, pain, loss, but also pleasure, sexytimes, excitement.
Both are essential. The balance varies from person to person, and through the seasons and events of life.
