PROMOTION TIMETABLE
#THE DAWN #TD #Aeronautics]
A poster showing a white airplane leaving a long tail of vapor as it soared through the «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» deep blue sky was posted on all of The Dawn’s official SNS accounts, along with the full comeback promotion schedule. Simultaneously, as if waiting for that exact moment, the album trailer, concept photos, and track sampler were aggressively uploaded.
Even before the highlight melody had been revealed, what drew the most attention was, unexpectedly, the critic’s review from the music appreciation event.
[Title: Critic Han Jiyu’s Review of The Dawn’s New Song Listening Event
“Perhaps the more beloved an artist becomes, the more they tend to wander when it comes to music and their own direction. Maybe that’s why. The title track ‘Flight,’ which compares the dark unknown future to an endless night sky and the traces of wandering within it to a cosmic distress signal, feels like a darker twist on the buoyant ‘Ocean Train’ from three years ago.
Yet strangely, it does not feel sad. On the contrary, the lyrics carry hope and sketch out the future. Come to think of it, they’ve always shouted it so often it became almost tiresome. That our eternal, most cliché truth is still love.”
└;;;Why did our ice-cold critic Han Jiyu write such a romantic review;;
└That part ‘They’ve always shouted until it became boring’—isn’t that referring to Kang Ichae’s featuring in ‘Garage’??!
└└He used to always be so sarcastic.. Ah, now I’m actually looking forward to it, I think I’ve got the same taste as this critic.]
[Just listening to the song alone made me feel like standing alone in a theater as the ending credits rolled. The song’s metaphor-filled storytelling aside, I think the dreamlike beat with its fast tempo and subtly chilling melody played a huge role in creating that peculiar atmosphere. Of course, Jeong Ahan’s voice, blending perfectly with the song, also did its part.]
