Become A Music Monster Overnight! [EN]: Chapter 28

Snow Lady.

“Is it the first snow?”

I stretched and then realized that snow was falling heavily from the sky.

Thanks to that, it felt even more like the end of the year today.

-Slurp-

I emptied my coffee, which had already gone cold, and gazed out the window at the falling snow for a long time, counting down the days until my debut, which wasn’t far off.

The songs were already mastered.

The songs came out quite satisfactory, though not perfectly.

Now, if the music video comes out well, Black Tiger can be released into the world.

I heard it would take about two weeks, which is a long time for editing a music video, but considering Director Hong Ui-chan’s style, it was close to average.

“The promotion strategy is the problem.”

It was riding the wave of the ‘Legends of Rock’ buzz, but recently, the interest had been fading, perhaps because of the year-end atmosphere.

If this continues, the buzz may be less than half of what it is now by the time of debut.

“Should I sing a carol or something?”

Apart from the increase in subscribers, the number of views on the YouTube video was also stagnating, so I had no choice but to consider a carol.

“Should I make it a duet?”

Since it was a carol song that makes money, the guys over there had already made more than one or two. [Many artists release Christmas carols to capitalize on the holiday season.]

Every one of them was a hit, proven tracks.

However, in the case of a carol to be sung as a duet, it seemed better to create a new one.

To gain two advantages with one carol song.

One was for the promotion of Black Tiger, and the other was to increase the awareness of Lee Na-eun, YC Entertainment’s big prospect for next year.

“Maybe it’s thanks to the arrangement, but she digested ‘Bunny Bunny’ better than I thought.”

Of course, she still seemed a little shy, but that’s something she’ll get used to over time.

However, it was clear that she wasn’t just saying she was bad at dancing for nothing, and the dance was facing many difficulties in many ways.

Thanks to this, the difficulty of the dance had to be lowered through the third revision, and it seemed that it would take a considerable amount of time to dance it properly.

“Looking at this, she really managed to release dance songs.”

There were more than seven stages where she danced that I knew of, so after knowing the situation, I felt that she was a hard worker.

It’s amazing enough to be a genius, but she doesn’t spare any effort, so it’s no wonder she became Korea’s top solo female singer.

Anyway, since she digested ‘Bunny Bunny’ well, I’m thinking of giving her an award called duet song. [He’s considering writing a duet song for her.]

“Ummm.”

I had to pause and ponder, looking out the window at the snow-covered scenery.

It wasn’t that I was worried because I couldn’t think of any inspiration. Rather, it was a concern about what to pick out of the inspiration that was pouring out with the first snow.

“Let’s go with this.”

-Tap tap tap-

Before I knew it, I was back at my seat, writing the title on the music notation program that was turned on.

-Snow Lady-

The English word for snowman is snow man.

There is no word snow lady in English. [The term “snow lady” is not a common English expression.]

Some people may meet acquaintances they haven’t seen in a while and have a warm end of the year, but on the contrary, there are many who face a more lonely end of the year.

I named the title Snow Lady to express that loneliness more directly.

I want to let those who are caught up in the thought that they are nothing because of loneliness know that they are not.

-Click…Click!-

As the title and the big frame were created, I quickly started composing.

And the first draft was created in less than an hour. Perhaps it was because it was the end of the year that the inspiration for the carol came to me clearly.

In fact, it didn’t even take a day to get to the final mastering.

It was a song created as a result of a sudden event promotion effect, so it was possible because the section only included guitar and bass. [The simple instrumentation allowed for quick production.]

I’m thinking of making an overseas version arrangement of Snow Lady.

It will go separately from the domestic version, and the reason for this is not only because there are many overseas subscribers on the channel.

I think English can bring out the unique atmosphere of a carol.

It would be nice to take advantage of the Christmas special and increase the number of overseas subscribers.

As soon as I finished the song, I played it to Lee Na-eun. Na-eun, as if she had become a mute, only swallowed her saliva while listening.

I smiled silently at Na-eun’s appearance and asked.

“How is it?”

“…It’s good.”

Her eyes were full of respect for me as she said it was good.

I felt that my trust was falling as I had been forcibly recording ‘Bunny Bunny’, but it seemed to have been restored with this one song.

“I’m thinking of releasing the song officially, so think you’re dead from today.” [He jokingly tells her to work extremely hard.]

“Yes!”

“Okay, it’s good to see you so energetic.”

I nodded at her full of motivation.

Perhaps because I also have high expectations for her, I had great expectations for this project. It was even more so because I had produced her once in that world.
