BRICOLAGE

Bricolage is a French word, mean "making something out of things you already have" or in easy word "DIY - DO IT YOURSELF"Bricolage is a way of thinking that can be applied to all sorts of things, from art and science to cooking and fashion.

The ways of bricolage in postmodern film : 

  • Intertextuality
  • Genre Mash-up
  • Nonlinear Narrative

Some examples of BRICOLAGE : 

What is Love? - TWICE ( Park Jin Young, 2018 )

  • Nayeon is Mia from The Princess Diaries
  • Jeongyeon and Sana are Molly and Sam from Ghost
  • Mina and Dahyun are Vic and Matthieu from La Boum
  • Sana and Tzuyu are Mia and Vincent from Pulp Fiction
  • Jeongyeon and Tzuyu are Romeo and Juliet from Romeo and Juliet
  • Jihyo and Jeongyeon are Itsuki/Hiroko and male Itsuki from Love Letter
  • Momo and Tzuyu are Mia and Sebastian from La La Land
  • Dahyun and Chaeyoung are Léon and Mathilda from Léon: The Professional

The song is about "the love girls would dream about or imagine after learning about it through books, movies or dramas" so adding the scene from different films ( bricolage ) is helping the audience to easier to imagine and understand the message.
