Lovelyz member Ryu Su-jeong has completed a narrative as if it were a film.

On the 16th, Ryu Su-jeong released a comprehensive compilation of music videos for all tracks from her fourth mini-album 'ALL THE COLORS I AM' through official SNS and YouTube channels.

The released compilation is a video that arranges the music videos for six songs included in the album into a single work. Each track utilizes different aspect ratios, shooting methods, color tones, and atmospheres, emphasizing natural light and the texture of real spaces rather than constructed sets. Long takes were employed to capture Ryu Su-jeong's expressions, movements, and even the air within the space. Light, space, objects, and movements flow into the next scene, creating a cinematic narrative that lasts approximately 15 minutes.

Ryu Su-jeong stated, "This album reflects on her 20s, where she filled in with bright colors one by one, and at the threshold of her 30s, it tells the story of organizing the layers of color accumulated so far and facing the true essence (Nude) within. The focus was on the process of accepting that even unstable moments were all part of 'me.' The six music videos, produced in different formats, show my growth narrative embracing the wandering and clumsiness of my 20s and moving forward toward a new era."

First, 'Crying to' began from a state trapped in recurring emotions. Immersion was heightened with only her voice and no accompaniment. The light Ryu Su-jeong moves toward transitions into the space of 'Birthday Cake,' shifting the direction of the story. Ryu Su-jeong unties a rope herself, looks back at the past, and frees herself from self-imposed bonds.

Following this, Ryu Su-jeong's image flying along with the light leads to the world within 'Lucky Charms.' Ryu Su-jeong appears in different visuals, displaying her various colors. Scenes that began in real spaces transition into animation, crossing the boundary between reality and imagination. The message of "believing in myself as I am" is conveyed through the image of three Ryu Su-jeongs traveling together.

The car Ryu Su-jeong rides moves onto the track for the next song, 'shoulda woulda coulda.' In this song facing lingering feelings about past relationships and her past self, Ryu Su-jeong in different forms runs alongside a turtle on the same track. After everyone crosses the finish line, the gaze directed at the turtle transitions into the black-and-white visuals of 'Friendly Fire,' moving to the next emotional thread.

In 'Friendly Fire,' Ryu Su-jeong, who has continuously run forward, briefly stops to look inward. Amidst visuals alternating between black-and-white and negative film, she wipes off her makeup, faces her unadorned self, and stands before new emotions. Particularly, the scene of gazing at her own face transitions into the color visuals of the final track 'Diamond,' visually completing a change that sheds colors to find one's original light again.

In the final 'Diamond,' Ryu Su-jeong, who has passed through countless colors and forms, confirms her unchanging inner light regardless of appearance. Expanding on the music video's message where she moved in her natural form after setting aside glamorous attire, it captures the moment of looking at one's essence not through others' gazes or external standards.

Regarding the full-album music videos, Ryu Su-jeong explained, "If you know each message and sequence, they are videos connected as one," adding, "I intended to create the six music videos into a single film-like work."

Continuing on the narrative of each track, she said, "'Crying to' begins from a state trapped in recurring emotions, 'Birthday Cake' sees her breaking free from self-imposed bonds, and 'Lucky Charms' displays Ryu Su-jeong in various colors. In 'shoulda woulda coulda,' she faces her past self; in 'Friendly Fire,' she lowers her defenses before new emotions; and in 'Diamond,' after passing through countless colors and forms, she confirms the light within that remains unchanged regardless of appearance."

On the 17th, Ryu Su-jeong will hold an offline fan event to celebrate the release of her new album and meet with fans.
