This contributes to the overarching concept of new beginnings that is being explored within this MV and the wider album. The lyrics suggest that although we can find love again, the cyclical nature of it also makes pain inevitable, but that this pain is in turn healed as we move on and find love again. Again, there’s an exploration of duality as well as the cyclical nature of love. These lyrics are interposed against a scene of a train travelling directly towards Minhyuk symbolising inevitability whilst also suggesting routine and repetition. Minhyuk sings “you can’t stop love so the pain repeats // it hurts so much but love comes to me again”. This concept of inevitability, in moving on, and the relentless nature of time is also sprinkled throughout the MV.
Echoing Changsub’s lyrics, there’s a sense of finality and inevitability in the lines “today will become yesterday” that Sungjae sings. The underlying message again is that in order to overcome the pain of lost love a healthy dose of time and distance are required to go some way towards numbing the pain. During the latter verse, Changsub sings “time has passed and I’ve come this far” neatly tying the two concepts of time and distance together. This imagery gives voice to our inherent understanding that whilst time will continue on and the pain will dull, in the immediate aftermath the heartache dominates.ĭistance is symbolised by the aeroplane setting for Changsub and Peniel’s verses. We also see sand running through Changsub and Sungjae’s fingers representing the relentless passage of time and again harking back to the hourglass motif.

Two hourglasses can be seen in the foreground in the foreground and on the TV screens as Peniel and Ilhoon rap respectively. The motif of the hourglass, a shout-out to the album title Hour Moment and concept, is peppered throughout the MV. The MV also considers time and distance in overcoming the “beautiful pain” of an ending love. Hyunsik’s low note near the end of the MV, that transitions to the climax, embodies the concept of ‘beautiful pain’ in vocal form. This concept exploring the bittersweet nature of love is at the very heart of the song with the chorus summing up the cycle of love and the emotional highs and lows that come it: “I met my love, then break-up // For endless days, I cried and laughed”. The use of red smog lighting in one scene really magnifies the lyrics that are played over it: “We get coloured with painful love again” by giving the words a visual representation. Meanwhile, Peniel’s rap encapsulates the downs: “the pain will disappear but the scars are forever”. During Ilhoon’s verse, the former is exemplified by the happy memories that playback on screens, whilst the retro guitar riffs throughout the song give it a nostalgic and introspective vibe. We see further visual references to the ups and downs of a relationship. The use of lighting via a torch beam in that same scene and the transition of light and dark scenes between Sungjae’s white setting and Hyunsik in semi-darkness echoes that duality: dark and light, love and pain. This is interposed nicely with the next frame showing Hyunsik and a girl goofing around, epitomising the playfulness that embodies a new relationship and the calm before the storm. The MV explores this right off the bat, starting the song with hints of conflict: the whine of a siren and beeping horns can be heard as the camera pans over debris scattered on the floor, representing the fragments of a broken relationship. This is the idea that we can experience the utmost of joy whilst in love as well as the excruciating pain that comes with its end. This latest MV explores the duality of love, best exemplified by the title of the song “Beautiful Pain”. Cube Entertainment’s BtoB released “Beautiful Pain” the lead single from their special album Hour Moment on 12 November. “Beautiful Pain”, exploring the bittersweet nature of love, marks a graduation of sorts for the ballad group as they move onto their next chapter.
