I actually found FLOWER's video to be one heck of a juxtaposition like the song's title.

1. We didnt expect FLOWER to be this angsty rock track. But it turned out so despite its gentle title.

2. She posture on the couch was VERY geisha/artisan? It reeked of traditional Japanese vibes but yet she was not exactly dressed in that sense. And after that regal pose, its as though she went like F this sh*t and just went berserk. Super big contrast there.

3. The whole vertical subtitles idea i guess is suppose to give off this traditional video sense. Yet the whole setting isn't traditional at all. It looks like a hotel. (and she looks wasted..lol)
