About these sets

미녀와 야수 & HEAL. This set gathers the Korean from The Rose's 2021 digital single 미녀와 야수 and the Korean-bearing tracks of the 2022 album HEAL. 미녀와 야수 turns a fairy tale into a love song built on petals, wilting flowers and a spell about to break, while Definition of ugly is speaks in the voice of someone pushed away and laughed at. See-Saw supplies most of the vocabulary here — the language of enduring, of a tilting centre and of lifting weight off someone slowly — and Childhood adds a handful of words about keeping an innocent heart as time passes.

너와, RED & Strangers. Three standalone releases from 2018 and 2019, collected into one set: the drama OST ballad 너와, the neon-bright single RED, and the horror-drama OST 타인은 지옥이다 (Strangers). 너와 is the band's only fully Korean track and supplies the quiet vocabulary of watching someone sleep — 미소, 어둠, 곤히. RED turns toward light and motion with 불꽃, 빨갛다 and 펼쳐지다, while Strangers supplies the darkest register in the catalogue: 악몽, 비명, 갇히다, 지옥.

Dawn. Dawn is The Rose's 2018 EP and the richest Korean source in their catalogue. The four tracks move from the flirtatious curiosity of "I Don't Know You" through the grey downpour of "She's In The Rain" and the numbed goodbye of "Take Me Down" to the sleepless circling of "불면증". The vocabulary here is weather, exhaustion and memory: fog, raindrops, loneliness, traces left behind and nights that will not end.
