I wish I could pin your comments but Patreon won’t let me do that yet! I love learning and being reminded of all the things and luckily I have done some lore diving at the time that I write this comment so I am now much more aware of all the things you are referencing which is fun!

The story that began with HeeJin's 'ViViD' created a group named '3', composed of HeeJin, HyunJin, and HaSeul. Yeojin added '/' while ViVi added '1' to complete LOOΠΔ 1/3. Kim Lip with 'Eclipse', JinSoul with Singing in the Rain', and Choerry with 'Love Cherry Motion' gathered to create a new group, 'ODD EYE CIRCLE' to start a new story. Plenty of imageries and metaphors are in LOOΠΔ's music, lyrics, albums, and music videos for fans search for like puzzle pieces to complete. For instance, the word 'ODD' in ODD EYE CIRCLE is used as its original definition, but is also an image of three moons together. ODD EYE CIRCLE's musical story told by three odd girls have just started. [Mix&Match] 01 ODD The intro track to express ODD EYE CIRCLE’s identity. Girls who have released solo singles each have gathered to sing under the name ‘ODD EYE CIRCLE’. They say that we’re all ODD as people. 02 Girl Front The title track of ODD EYE CIRCLE. While LOOΠΔ 1/3 has drawn the picture of girls in a crush, ODD EYE CIRCLE sings, "Love is not to be waited for, it is something I look for.” This song depicts new standards of girls saying that they would ask the boys out first, and expressing their love with dignity. The track is structured in the way that Kim Lip’s ‘Eclipse’, JinSoul’s ‘Singing in the Rain’, and Choerry’s ‘Love Cherry Motion’ mix & match to show how three moons (ODD) gathered to form a new team. The music video was shot in Los Angeles, and the group's links to LOOΠΔ 1/3 are hidden in the video like puzzle pieces for the fans to find. Another girl yet to be introduced revolves around ODD EYE CIRCLE. 03 LOONATIC The international title track which will be released in English for the fans outside of Korea. The track is in the styles of dream pop which has almost never been done in Korea to satisfy both international and local fans. Listeners would feel as if they are in a roller-coaster ride for a lot of work has been put into making the sound. 04 Chaotic A track that emphasizes ODD EYE CIRCLE's vocalist techniques. The song was initially chosen to be the title track for BlockBerryCreative's 8x8x8, but it was changed to showcase ODD EYE CIRCLE's technical vocal skills. Thus, you can feel ODD EYE CIRCLE's unique charm as they can express their music to be 'manish'. 05 Starlight Fans who like LOOΠΔ 1/3 might be surprised with ODD EYE CIRCLE as their music is in the complete opposite style. While LOOΠΔ 1/3 has focused to create sounds of cliche images of young girls, ODD EYE CIRCLE is creating their music in the original shapes of a girl-crush in the form of a pop-tune. They’ve put stories among girls, more important than stories about boys, into this track, Starlight. Story told under the starlight endlessly until the morning comes. Having started with the idea of solos gathering to make a unit, and units gathering to create a whole world, LOOΠΔ can finally show its big picture via the introduction of ODD EYE CIRCLE. The girls will continue working as solos, units, and as a whole. LOOΠΔ concert, which is being prepared, will be the stage for twelve solo artists, three teams, and one whole complete group in a splendid set-up for everyone to be amused."

2024-09-30 00:49:00 +0000 UTCTHEE SUMMER BOP OF ALL SUMMER BOPS lore-wise, this mv shows that jinsoul has the ability to teleport which is why you see her in a different location every time she turns around. it also shows that oec are looking for other members as shown by the animal stickers that are representative of other members on the map that they're carrying around. I think the animal stickers in the upper right belong to the 1/3 girls minus yeojin but a frog sticker is later seen on the map. so this is indicates that currently oec members are looking for 1/3. oh and the circles on the maps are in the same positions as the mirrors in choerry's video which means that both the circles and mirrors lead to the other members also I don't know if you caught it and just didn't say anything but hyunjin is there for like a split second in this video which shows that she was found by oec! we see another choerry (from the mirror dimension/different time hence her always having a mirror in her hand) guiding the main choerry. another girl's shadow is also shown to be circling the oec members in the scene where they're all sitting down around the map and a lot of orbits have theorize it's either hyunjin (since she was actually shown in the video) or yves (there was a description for the song that states "Another girl yet to be introduced revolves around OEC" which is why people thought it was yves since she was the next member to be introduced) or hyeju (I forgot why people thought it was her I think it might have had to do with her connection to jinsoul in the lore) but I don't think we've ever got an official confirmation even to this day in some shots, you can see the girls wearing a rubber band bracelet on their left wrist but it's twisted up which supposed to represent a möbius strip which in the simplest explanation I can muster atm is a three dimensional loop where one side mirrors the other. if you start at one end to the other, you will eventually get back to where you started. the möbius strip is super important in loona's lore. at the end of the mv, we're back to the beginning of the video with kim lip and the tape is shown to be rewinding which indicates that the möbius strip has started a new loop once again
