ROSÉ POV
"I know you really wanted to hear a new music from me and i'm so sorry i couldn't give you a precise answer. Trust me on this, love. It'll be worth it." I gave my phone screen a smile as i talked my fans through an IG Live.
It should be a V App but i know my fans prefer Instagram and a lot of them are not from the country i'm working on.
"Just hang on and let's jam around as we wait for my new music, alright?" I added, smiling.
I read someone asking for a series of this session.
"Yes. I will do some..ah. Bored in the Studio. Is that a good name?" I asked them.
They agreed.
After a while of talking and playing my piano i said goodbyes and goodnights.
I ended my Instagram live and sighed. My eyes roaming around the almost dark room. I'm in the studio in TBL and i'm the only one left here.
My eyes fixed on the recording room.
Someday, i'm gonna singing songs that are mine to release.
I can count in my fingers of the songs i've released which i recorded for a demo. I only have 6 songs in my 5 years in the Idol Industry.
Despite of having a few songs, i made my way in the industry and been tagged as the nation's princess. It is an overwhelming, of course. My 6 songs charted no.1 and no.2 in every charts.
The mass are already asking my company to release my music which my company left a statement that i'm going to release soon but until now, i haven't asked for the album making or brainstorming.
Anyway, i'm Roseanne Park but my stage name is Rosé. It's my idea to use it and so far, people still see it as a unique name for a singer.
I'm 24 years old and a 5 year old singer under YG Entertainment.
My only wish as a musician is to release a full album and play it in front of my fans... in a big stage.
Well, that'll be too far.
I cleaned my mess in the studio and lock the room. It's past 2AM and i'm the only one left in the building (and the security of course).
I greeted him as i walked out the building. I looked around first before continue walking on the sidewalk. Making sure no one is stalking me.
I have 2 security but i don't want to bother them at times likes this. So after 9PM, they are off duty.
I went to the bus stop.
I missed being a trainee. Everything around me is music. And competition but it doesn't feel like it because i really enjoyed myself being surrounded by music. 14 hours a day. Learning new instruments, learning new choreos. Writing music and producing music.
Everything was taught when you were a trainee.
I had friends. I have friends. I was supposed to debut in a group but on the last minute, i was excluded and debuted as a soloist.
The group composed of nine members didn't make it. The company decided to cut them. Instead they debuted a solo-- which is me and a duo.
The duo has the same situation with me. Few songs and no projects. But them gets to have a reality show. While i'm stuck on my own.
When i got home, i cooked myself some pasta while busying myself scrolling on my social media apps.
As an idol, i am required to have social media apps to communicate with my fans. And if other artists follow another artists, no i'm not. But i do check the posts if i'm in them. To share or like it.
A message pops up in my screen and i couldn't believe what i just read.
From Manager Yoon Jae: I know you're still up and i'm just ecstatic to share you a good news! Prepare your music sheets on Monday. You'll be recording your mini album!
I started composing for a reply but i kept erasing them as i really don't know what to say. I found myself replying a meme of myself in shocked.
I received another message from him.
From Manager Yoon Jae: It's too much to take but you'll be in control of your mini album. You can help in the recording process and all. Me and Minsook will be working on your promotions. Other details will be discuss on Monday.
Yes! It is too much to take all of this. Earlier, i was just reassuring my fans that i'll get my new music and hours later i'll be receiving i'm gonna get my mini album soon.
I finished my late dinner and early breakfast then run to my room to rummage all of my music sheets.
Yes, i didn't sleep. I started checking all of them of what i think would suit the taste of my bosses. I mean, i need to get their 'yes'.
I prepared 10 songs, my best picks but i'll bring my folders just in case they ask something else.
After that, i started sketching for the album cover. Since i will be given control, i want to design my album cover. It's gonna be my first mini album and i want it to be perfect.
I didn't know i fell asleep in the sofa until i felt someone carrying me.
"Shh, go to sleep." She whispered.
I smiled sleepily on her arms, "you're here."
"It's Sunday, that's why. Now go back to sleep." She answered.
She put me in my bed and covered myself with the comforter.
"I missed you." I whispered.
"I missed you too, my chipmunk." I heard her answer.
After hearing her answer, i finally drifted to sleep.
