I am almost 100% sure that BRILLANTE is about her fans - and maybe especially her international fans as they seem extra-*****y over the internet and the song includes goodbye in all those languages. The video makes that rather obvious to me. Talking about her father ended with Memorial Address. After that there was nothing left to say.
Also the whole context of the FIVE EP as somewhat a "**** you" to fans telling her what to do and then still being disappointed.
It's a goodbye to her fans. Not in the "I will end my career" way but in the "I will stop listening to what you want" way. She's proven just that throughout this era. The duets, a-nation, trying rather generic RnB, no upbeat track, untypical progress video...she's not trying to please her fans anymore, she has grown up into someone doing what she wants to do.
