However, fans who watched the video felt that the narration felt familiar. Turns out, they were from Anton‘s letter he wrote to fans on Weverse this past April. He posted a long letter along with photos of a solar eclipse.
“Hi BRIIZE :D Did you guys see the new photos that were released? These eclipse photos were sent to me by a friend in the States. Most of you probably know, but a solar eclipse happened yesterday. It’s so cool. I’m sad I wasn’t able to see it with my own eyes, but because of the eclipse, I started thinking about what I would be doing or what kind of person I would have become by the time of the next eclipse.
I think my friend was touched after seeing the eclipse, and they sent me a long message..’If feels like a crazy coincidence that the moon blocked the sun. But then I thought, ah, it’s obvious. The moon was always swimming towards this moment.’
That’s right. Hundreds of years ago, people thought the world was ending when they saw an eclipse, and they could have said their goodbyes to loved ones. But now, we see things like this and are happy. Because we know that the sun is just covered and hasn’t disappeared.
Pain is like that. It covers our lives for a moment. Nothing else changes. Korea will be able to see an eclipse in 2035! Let’s watch it together then!
I wasn’t trying to say anything deep. Although we have our comeback, fan-con tour, and mini album coming up, I know it might be hard, but I hope that BRIIZE will be able to experience these happy moments together. Everyone, cheer up!”
The photos of the eclipse were sent to him from his friend in the states.
The director for the trailer also posted the narration on Instagram with the caption, “Written by Anton.”
Fans felt that using his words for the trailer made it even more special and meaningful.
- “To have the words that consoled me during my hardest times in the trailer is just…it’s crazy. I love you, Anton.”
- “It’s so meaningful…so touched.”
- “Oh.”
- “Oh the words are so nice.”
- “How can you not love him.”
- “The Weverse message was so nice.”
- “Wow the words are so nice, but combining it with the narration makes it feel like a movie.”
- “Such good emotions.”
- “The message is so nice.”
- “Having this type of emotion must be genetic…I’m so touched by this.”
- “He’s such a good person..the fans are lucky.”
- “I loved this message from him, and to use it in the trailer…SM, you guys are genius.”
- “I love Anton’s emotions.”
- “The expression of swimming is so like Anton.”
- “What’s this..his emotions are great.”
