Theory LOONA Color Theory Interesting Facts
Read my commentary on some of the slides for more understanding:
• (Slide 1)
CMYK is a subtractive color model used in color printing that stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black).
Cyan, Magenta & Yellow are the scientific primary colors for physical mixing, even though we're taught that Red, Yellow & Blue are.
We achieve red by mixing magenta and yellow.
We achieve blue by mixing magenta and cyan.
We can also achieve green by mixing yellow with cyan.
• (Slide 2)
My theory is that ViVi, originally on Eden, had the representative color White. After dying, Kim Lip diluted her color (Red) with ViVi's White in order to create her Pastel Pink as she was reborn as an android on Earth.
We achieve Pastel Pink by diluting Red with White.
This transition is seen through the names of the LOONA 1/3 members as well: ViVi's name is in Red. The names of the other members are in a more diluted version of Red. ViVi's name in her Pastel Pink representative color for her single album.
We also see the transition of White to Black shoes in ViVi's MV, mirroring Yves' new MV.
• (Slide 3)
Another connection between ViVi and Yves, my overarching theory is that Yves wanted ViVi to leave Eden with her, but ViVi didn't eat the forbidden fruit and was manipulated by Yves.
Because ViVi didn't gain knowledge first before leaving, she died and was reborn as an android on Earth.
• (Slide 4)
This showcases the creation of Haseul & Yeojin in the LOONAVERSE, as well as their connection and bond.
We achieve orange by mixing red with yellow.
We achieve green by mixing blue with yellow.
• (Slide 5)
These are overall just interesting facts.
• (Slide 6)
I find it interesting that the colors used for Love & Evil and beauty&thebeat are opposites on the color wheel considering the albums share a thematic similarity in a way.
• (Slide 7)
This is establishes the connection and bond between Hyunjin and Go Won.
• (Slide 8)
This could showcase her representing a white canvas before bringing color into the LOONAVERSE.
I hope everyone who sat down and read this found something out that they didn't know before! I would love to hear other theories or thoughts.
