💜 BTS often address issues like depression, suicide and self-love in their artistry and it would seem “Fake Love” is no exception to the narrative. Lyrically, the song talks about love that was once believed to be destiny, but turned out fake at the end and reflects the theme of the entire "Love Yourself" series - "that any love wherein one does not love oneself is not real."It also recounts the emptiness that comes to a person who has invested too much in a relationship, only to lose one's own identity in the process through lyrics such as, "I even became quite unsure of who I was / Try babbling into the mirror, who the heck are you?"The lyrics further reference the notion of holding onto a toxic relationship: "I grew a flower that can't be bloomed in a dream that can't come true."Lines like "Mold a pretty lie for you" and "Try to erase myself and make me your doll" suggest themes of "hiding depression" and "pressure" to maintain relationships despite struggling with mental health. During the chorus, the band chant the titular phrase singing, "I'm so sick of this fake love" admitting "disenchantment."

💜 My goal is to deliver English subtitles that are correctly translated, and easy to read and understand, whilst not being an element that disturbs or irritates you.
But I cannot make the rappers rap slowly ;)
💜 Regardless of the translation source for the subtitle, I also search for information about the meaning of the song and the lyrics. I fix errors, sync the subtitles to the video and replace words or sentences that need a better translation to make it easier to understand and/or follow the subtitles.
💜 I work on creating subtitles for BTS videos so that we can understand the songs better, as the lyrics are a big part of BTS music. I know a subtitle, as an option to turn on, will make people enjoy BTS more. Any advertising revenue is paid to the copyright holder, usually HYBE (Big Hit Entertainment), and not to me.
