BLACKPINK Solistas: Análisis de Sawadika, Fallen Angel, Click y New Tricks
Main summary
Key takeaways
Summary
The video presents Pilu Alda’s opinion-based analysis of new solo releases by BLACKPINK’s Jennie, Rosé, Jisoo, and Lisa. It explores lyrics, music-video storytelling, color, costumes, symbolism, and each artist’s public image, as well as fan and media reactions. The video interpretations are presented as theories, not confirmed explanations from the artists.
Jennie — “Fallen Angel”
The song’s subdued guitar and reflective mood support lyrics about vulnerability and wanting companionship. Alda reads the video’s imagery as a contrast between Jennie’s idealized celebrity persona and her humanity:
- A pink cardboard city and a girl with a goose plushie suggest childhood or an “inner child.”
- Geese, violet tones, and a white dress evoke being watched, idealized, and angelic. Jennie’s fall into water marks her loss of that elevated status.
- Red stages, fire, luxury, and confinement are interpreted as symbols of fame, power, and industry pressures. Breaking out of a box and being carried by butterflies suggest liberation and becoming a solo artist.
- Black-and-white scenes of people parting, followed by their reunion in color, reinforce the song’s longing not to be abandoned. Frozen blue roses are linked to Jennie’s mother and the wish to preserve cherished moments.
- A burning house and a nest with childlike angels suggest chaos surrounding Jennie while her inner child remains a source of comfort.
Alda contrasts the EP’s vulnerable, introspective direction with Jennie’s earlier work. She also criticizes the release strategy of keeping three additional songs exclusive to the physical edition.
Rosé — “New Tricks”
The song is presented as a shift from heartbreak toward recovery: instead of staying in the sadness of a toxic relationship, Rosé gets up, goes out, and celebrates.
The preppy styling—especially chocolate and light blue, classic cardigans, stripes, and diamonds—helps create a youthful, relaxed mood. A school-gym setting and the song’s pop-punk energy add a nostalgic, early-2000s feel.
Alda rejects claims that Rosé is simply copying Olivia Rodrigo, arguing that pop-punk is a wider genre rather than the property of one artist. She also discusses an online joke about whether Rosé’s promotional iPhone photo was edited, treating it as a rumor and a source of teasing rather than serious criticism.
Jisoo — “Click”
The song describes attraction to a questionable partner, but Alda finds the video’s abandoned amusement-park story more prominent. Dusty surroundings, blue tones, and neglected animatronics create an eerie atmosphere. Jisoo is portrayed as an abandoned park figure who waits alone until she repairs a plush toy called the Click Bear.
Alda suggests the bear may represent the fans, with their connection bringing the park back to life. She also highlights the shift from darkness to a lively, illuminated park, and interprets a final spiderweb-like 3D-printed dress as imagery of abandonment and entanglement.
She thinks the romantic, relatively relaxed pop song may have disappointed viewers expecting a more horror-oriented concept.
Lisa — “Sa Wad Dee Ka”
The Thai greeting in the title sets up an era focused on Lisa’s Thai heritage. The video and promotion use local settings and a tuk-tuk, while the costumes range from futuristic neon and jeweled traditional references to sporty boxing, red latex, and other diva-like looks.
Alda praises the visual versatility but argues that the song’s confident “I’m the best” persona resembles “Rockstar” and risks keeping Lisa within a narrow image. She speculates that the image may reflect expectations placed on Lisa during her YG years, and points to more melodic songs as evidence that Lisa can show other sides of herself.
The release is described as a preview of Lisa’s upcoming EP, Press Play.
Alda’s overall reaction
Alda says none of the releases fully became a favorite, though Lisa’s upbeat track was the one she connected with most. She closes by thanking viewers and channel supporters and inviting followers to vote on future video topics.
