The persona, as defined by Carl Jung, is the mask that we show to everyone around us. In the graphic above, the persona is right on top of the consciousness, on the border with the real world.  When the world looks at us, that’s what the world sees. The persona isn’t our true self, it’s what we allow the world to see, and it can change depending on the role we are playing in our lives. We all have multiple personas: mother, daughter, wife, professional, etc.

In the third and final part of this series, we explore further into the connections between Demian and WINGS, diving into a magical god, organ music, and motherhood, finalizing the novel and drawing connections with RM, j-hope, and SUGA’s content in WINGS.

We continue exploring the connections between the novel Demian and BTS's WINGS album. In Part II, we delve into recurring themes like regret, dreams, duality, and self-discovery. We also discuss the symbolism in both the Demian and the WINGS album, including references to chocolate, absinthe, and Dante’s Beatrice.

In BTS's album WINGS, there are many references to the book Demian: The Story of Boyhood. This blog post explores the connection between the two. The book is about a boy named Sinclair who loses his childhood innocence and goes on a journey of self-discovery. The album WINGS is full of symbolism that reflects these themes, such as good vs. evil, temptation, and sin.
