Hyunjin at night. The clouds behind him partially obscure 2 full moons.
I'm letting the algorithm show me actual skz music videos for a change.
There are two moons in "Astronaut" (but it's too gloomy to tell if they're supposed to be red or blue)

Bang Chan looks up at the camera. He has a blue contact in one eye, and red makeup around that eye only. He's standing on a red circle within a gold circle.
Bang Chan bites a coin. He's surrounded by circular graphic elements in blue and gold, with "2076" above him and "CHAMPION OF KARMA" below
I've watched the Karma trailer a few times and scrolled through endless gifs on Tumblr already and I am pleased.
Delightfully Aussie bit at the end with Bang Chan's "hip hip"
(I've heard that when one person says "hip hip" and everyone responds with "hooray" […]

Felix howling at the red moon during a stage performance of Wolfgang.
Stray Kids posing at the end of a performance of Wolfgang, with blue lights projecting from behind them.
Big red moon (I think??) in the background for a lot of these scenes.
I wondered if they might introduce a blue moon when #Hyunjin joined partway through the performance. (The original track was released during #HyunjinsHiatus and he doesn't appear in later […]

View from behind of Seungmin among greenery, reaching up to the red moon projected on the stage backdrop, with a wolf in silhouette in front of it.
Bang Chan runs from the back of the stage to where I.N and Lee Know are connected by ropes attached to their wrists.
✂️ Red moon behind #Seungmin and #ChansPetBoys #I_N and #LeeKnow during the Golden Disc Awards performance of Wolfgang.
(Why haven't I checked Wolfgang performances for red and blue moons before now? It seems like an obvious source.) […]

Blue-haired Bang Chan is being filmed by I.N, who says, "You dyed your hair blue this time."
Red-haired Hyunjin viewed from behind. Bang Chan (off camera) says, "and here's the red guy"
Bang Chan is being filmed by I.N, who is kind of half-kneeling on the floor, leaning back and supporting himself on one arm.
Laughing Bang Chan chases I.N, who's just teased him by exposing his abs. I.N is committed to the bit and continues filming even as he backs away rapidly.
✂️ #BangChan is blue and #Hyunjin is red.
They're matching up with #skzBlue team and #skzRed team alignments again.
Bonus: #I_N adopts one of the most dramatic filming poses I've ever seen, and then gets cheeky about Channie's abs.

Stray Kids dancing in front of the elevator during the "Side Effects" MV. There are still two moons behind them, but now the moon on the right has a pink or violet hue.
wait I was too hasty now the moons are changing colour. I don't know if the moon on the right is properly a red moon yet, but it's heading that way.
#skzLore #skzRedMoon #skzBlueMoon #skzSideEffects
Stray Kids walking across a tarmac with their luggage, looking cheerful and carefree. There are two moons in the sky above them, and an elevator with scaffolding plopped down incongruously behind them. A sign propped against a barricade says DETOUR.
... and that's the elevator behind them that becomes central in "Levanter"
#skzLore #skzSideEffects #Levanter #skzExMember
Stray Kids at the start of the "Side Effects" MV, walking across a tarmac with their luggage. In the blue sky behind them are two moons: one half-moon and one full moon.
oooh there are two moons in the opening of the "Side Effects" MV but they're not red moon and blue moon yet. Instead it's half-moon and full moon.
This is the last title track MV before Woojin left. The next one is "Levanter" and I *think* that's the first […]

Bang Chan moodily walking up stairs, shot from below. He's carrying a bag decorated with chains. Caption: We're staring at the ticket that says "one trip"
Bang Chan looking down. Caption: We're staring at the ticket that says "one trip"
Seungmin's hands holding a ticket that says "TO NEW WORLD - ONE WAY TICKET". Caption: I walk as my feet take me. I feel the light, I feel the light.
Bang Chan, Seungmin and Han inside a beaten-up elevator, looking at a ticket that Seugmin is holding. The angle of Bang Chan's head is reminiscent of the angle from the shot in Railway where he's talking about the ticket that says "one trip." Caption: I walk as my feet take me. I feel the light, I feel the light.
Listening to "Railway" again and noticed the line "we're staring at the ticket that says one trip."
It made me think of the bit in #Levanter where #BangChan, #Seungmin and #Han are in the elevator, Seungmin is holding the ticket "to new world," and the other […]

what the fuck

but it's ... an inflatable??
also the heavy emphasis on red and blue, with the blue costumes and the strong red lighting. it's like […]

I.N wearing a bright pink top, a black jacket, and one of his oval glass pendants (looks like the black one although this image is fairly low quality so it's hard to be sure)
Back in #skz's rookie year, when #I_N was first getting a bit obsessed with accessories, there was a particular oval glass pendant necklace that he bought in a bunch of differnent colours. The other members used to borrow (or steal) them quite often.
At some […]

I'm forming a theory about what red and blue represent in #skzLore. I had started a # skzRedBlue hashtag a while ago but it didn't seem to be quite the right hashtag, so I got rid of it again.
Going to reinstitute it, sort of. But as #skzRed and #skzBlue, probably as replacements for the blue […]
I have some vague memories of the dual moon imagery in skz videos *before* Levanter, but I don't know if that's really a thing or I'm muddling my memories.
I want to go back and watch again *right now* but I have other things to do this evening, alas.
Hey in the movie The Dark Crystal, there's a cataclysmic event in which the crystal cracked, and a lot of things in that world cracked or split in two at the same time.
Their planet originally had one moon, and it split into two moons at the time of the cataclysm.
Then, when the shard of the […]
There's some other intentionally placed skz lore that I've seen other fans get into, such as the multiple universes, evil Felix, the keys (from Clé series), probably others. But I haven't really approached those rabbit holes yet.
I'm a little freaked out by the levels, to be honest. I've been […]
#BangChan has hinted pretty heavily that the #skzBlueTeam and #skzRedTeam lore drops are intentional.
He does not like to explain any of the messages behind any of the music or the MVs that he creates, and prefers it when fans build and share their own theories.
I don't genuinely believe that […]
#skzRedTeam and #skzBlueTeam were explicitly defined last year in #skzCode 59, part 1 of Fall Field Day.
:youtube: https://youtu.be/g5FGuZZJy3A
The #skzHOP album also came in red and blue versions, with the members' solos mostly (but not entirely) color-coded to match their teams.
The […]
A bit of background...
#skzBlueTeam is #BangChan, #LeeKnow, #Han, #Seungmin
#skzRedTeam is #Changbin #Hyunjin #Felix #I_N
Parts of the #skz lore may have been hinted at before #Levanter, but the 2 teams of 4 wouldn't have been part of the hinted lore before that, because there was a 9th […]
No #skzRedTeam connected sequence in that same video as far as I can tell.
They come out of the elevator at the end in order, #skzBlueTeam followed by red team.
Apart from that, red team's parts in the song itself are not connected into a whole. Which is also consistent with #Levanter, where […]
Cutie Han Jisungie looks piercingly into the camera while the other members stand behind him
Bang Chan stands in an elevator and tilts his head back to look into the camera that is directly above him
Lee Know sings and spreads out his arms close to the sides of an old elevator while he looks up at the camera filming him from directly above
Seungmin sings in an elevator with a metallic wall behind him
The algorithm knows how to keep me hooked.
I may have completed the #skzSignificantJewellery mission, but that just means I have more time to get obsessed by whatever's going on with #skzBlueTeam and #skzRedTeam
I just noticed that the blue team leads the […]

#skz5OClock things I want to remember ...
- Seo #Changbin #FlaggingRightBlack (heavy SM bottom) hell yes more fodder for the Solo Swap Is Really a Top/Bottom Swap theory (as posited on @ChickenRPF)
- Lee Know, Bang Chan and Seungmin carrying their skzoos in baby carriers on their backs during […]
I enjoy writing analysis on skz m/v and theorizing the lore. I'll post some theories and analysis soon. #skz #skzlore #straykids
Lee Know, a guest actor, and Hyunjin pretending to be members of a high school film club. Lee Know wears a black leather jacket that looks a lot like the one Bang Chan wore constantly for a couple of years.
Huh I'm pretty sure that's #BangChan's favorite leather jacket that #LeeKnow is wearing in this scene from On Track.
I wonder if Lee Know's "Youth" solo is part of the same universe?? Because he's helping to run a bingo event at a school during that one, and […]

Felix and Lee Know in school uniforms. Lee Know has a mark (maybe a bruise?) on his chin. Caption: and I can become anyone
There's a whole sequence of videos continuing this storyline where #skz are members of a high school film club:
"B Me" https://youtu.be/FR8_d1wDNZs
"Mixtape: OH" https://youtu.be/M7lIml8-eHU
"The View" (although there isn't much school in this one) […]

Hyunjin and Lee Know in school uniforms, with a girl in a school uniform in between them. Caption: it's too late / the last train to return to you has stopped
For #KpopMonday #SkoolLuvAffair
It's me, so of course it's #StrayKids with "Mixtape: On Track"
In which #Hyunjin and #LeeKnow are supposedly competing for the heart of the same girl. But it kinda seems like Hyunjin is pining for Lee Know.
:youtube: https://youtu.be/XkxWIAe3NDU
I realised that a big part of my ongoing fascination with Stray Kids is that my mind sees them as an intricate puzzle to solve.
Hence the deep-dive analysis of their hanky code signalling, their signficant jewellery, and every potentially shippy interaction that they have with each other […]
Bang Chan faces the camera. Behind him there are two moons: red and blue. the other members are pointing to the sky.
uhoh too late
✂️ red and blue moons combining at the end of #levanter
The whole of Levanter is essentially the red and blue teams.
