The Meaning Of Each Of The Flowers In LOONA’s “Flip That” Teaser Images
On June 4, LOONA announced the upcoming release of their summer special mini album, titled Flip That.
The concept photos for each member, uploaded to the group’s Instagram page, highlight a different type of flower and color. As flowers have various symbolisms in many cultures, here are the meanings of each flower used in the Flip That promotions.
1. Full group
For the first set of their promotional images, the LOONA members stood together and held hands around a wisteria tree. Wisteria is known for its longevity, as it can live up to hundreds of years, and symbolizes longevity.
2. Heejin, Hyunjin, and Haseul
Instead of posing with one specific type of flower, Heejin, Hyunjin, and Haseul were surrounded by a variety of flowers in their pictures.
The blend of red, pink, white, blue, and orange flowers symbolize courage, happiness, innocence, openness, and excitement respectively.
Perhaps the meaning of this color arrangement is a prediction for vibe of the Flip That song lineup!
3. Yeojin
In this picture Yeojin adorned sweet alyssum flowers in her hair, which symbolize calmness.
4. ViVi
ViVi‘s branch of yellow forsythia flowers represent anticipation towards warm sunshine.

9. Chuu
In contrast with her white dress, Chuu posed with a large red peony across her knee, which symbolizes love, passion, honor and respect.

Instead of holding a flower, Olivia Hye pointed to a white rose, which represents loyalty. In addition, the plethora of deep pink flowers in the background represent gentleness.
