Abstract

This study aims to analyze the meaning of mental health messages in the lyrics of BTS’s song “Zero O’Clock” using Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic theory. This research applies a descriptive qualitative method with a constructivist paradigm. The data were collected through lyric observation, interviews, and literature studies, then analyzed by identifying signifier and signified elements in selected lyric fragments. The results show that “Zero O’Clock” represents mental health messages related to emotional pressure, self-reflection, hope, and the opportunity to start over. The phrase “Zero O’Clock” symbolizes a new beginning, while lyrics such as “And you’re gonna be happy” reflect optimism and emotional recovery. Therefore, this song can be understood as a form of popular music that communicates messages of self-acceptance, resilience, and mental health awareness to its listeners.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of using song lyrics containing Degrees of Comparison to improve students’ grammar mastery. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test control group design was employed. The experimental class received instruction using song lyrics, while the control class received conventional instruction. Data were collected through tests, observations, and documentation and analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, normalized gain, and Cohen’s d. Based on the simulated data, the experimental class mean score increased from 56.70 to 76.10, while the control class increased from 57.10 to 65.93. The post-test difference between the groups was significant at p < 0.001. Cohen’s d value of 1.277 indicated a large effect. These findings suggest that song lyrics have the potential to improve students’ mastery of Degrees of Comparison. However, field-based research is still required because the results were generated from simulated data.
