ᯓ★ COMPOSITION, CONCEPT, AND PRODUCTION

BREAK THE CURSE is an album best defined by its hyperpop, electropop, and clubpop flare. almost all tracks were written and produced by DREAMCHIC’S main rapper and lead vocalist MICKEY MOON. mickey has went onto express that her main inspiration behind the sound and direction for the album was the clubbing and raving scene. in an interview, she states: “we’ve been working really diligently on this album for awhile now, and we felt that there was no better time to release it like now. as for the inspiration behind the creative process…” she laughs trying to choose her next words carefully. “i really got inspired by the partying scene. i wanted to make music that i could party to…i really like the vibe of raving, not—not to say that i’ve been partying or anything,” she laughs again alongside her members, attempting to explain in the best way possible. “but i would best describe this as a party album that you can play in clubs or when you just want to dance. we had a lot of fun making this album. i would say break the curse in its entirety has brought us even closer and has been our best creative session to date.”

additionally, BTC has quickly become a fan favorite and a staple in both pop culture and the music industry. the era has gotten the internet talking with the fashion choices, music videos, concepts, and lyrics. the lyrics in certain tracks have raised several brows and has been at the center of many discussions with netizens and fans alike. for example, TRACK SEVEN: GUESS, has received an abundance of love from fans, going viral, and being one of the highest charting songs on the album — peaking at #2. however, many have also questioned the lyrics. some lines in particular that created quite the stir being: “you wanna guess the color of my underwear, you wanna know what i’ve got going on down there…” these lyrics have brought the girls a lot of judgement in spite of its massive popularity. a lot of netizens even going as far as to scrutinize them for being too “provocative,” however stronger words were often used. when asked about the lyrics, mickey moon responded: “we were just messing around in the studio. ‘just having fun and, like, greatness just popped into our head regardless of the lyrics. it’s just spontaneous and fun.” though, hailey had a spicier response in comparison: “i mean, the lyrics are there! we all know what they mean but at the same time…i’m grown! so is mickey and like—it’s not like the lyrics are a lie!” the lyrics for the promo single 365 were also questioned for their ‘allusion’ to drug use (especially considering natalia hwang having a hand in the writing process) but the girls never spoke on it.

aside from this, the concepts and music videos were highly praised for the production quality and aesthetic. dreamchic utilized a concept heavily influenced by the culture and fashion of the 2000’s, most commonly a term often recognized as mcbling. below, you can find a collection of photos that emulates the overall concept for BTC:

ᯓ★ ERA NOTES

001. this era literally opened doors for the dreamchic girls. dreamchic was already a big name in their generation, but this era was something totally different. something shifted when this came out. once again, both ENVIE and DREAMCHIC were pitted against one another (nobody’s surprised) but this time was different. it felt more personal, which some fans could pick up on, due to a few incidents that happened. though it seemed to be a tough battle when both of them had comebacks only a few days apart—pre-sales only being different by half a million sales—when it was all said and done dreamchic won by a landslide! it was a victory for the girls and dreamers.

002. the promotion period was one for the books, lasting for a little over ten weeks total; filled with radio show appearances, variety show appearances, performances, music videos, commercial films, brand deals, editorials, livestreams, and so much more.

003. the members were evidently closer. not to say that they weren’t close already, but you can tell that the behind the scenes created an extremely strong bond between them. this coalition brought some solo stans together…that’s saying A LOT.

004. another thing that showed how much fun they had behind the scenes was the live listening party they hosted on FLORYVERSE. you could really see how passionate they were in the songs and how they would dance and sing along to the songs they enjoyed the most together. it was a real fun time like damn these girls are really a family 🥲

005. even though they had a lot of fun with this release, they also worked a lot. like they were being overworked but they didn’t complain. all the months before were literally all just dedicated to producing, writing, dance rehearsals, filming, etc. very little time for sleeping and eating, just sneaking in naps and snacks on set or for a couple of minutes in between rehearsals.

006. all members except hana took part in writing at least one track on the album. mickey, of course, wrote and produced all tracks (aside from truth be told though she did take part in writing it). hailey has credits on four tracks and ruo has credits on one track but she’s also participated in a lot of decision making when it came to composition. but where hana lacked in the writing department, she had a hand in choreographing. though they had a choreographer, it was left to hana to revise the demos for 365, SUPERNOVA 2, and MIDAS TOUCH.

fyi never blocked anyone during this entire situation lol

[aevortex]

okay i have some things i wanna say still too! i get my reaction was “aggressive” but i respond the way someone comes at me. my apologies for that but also, i’m extremely disheartened at the fact that this was never once brought to my attention. not a dm, a message, anything. if this has been a problem for such a long time and we’ve been in spaces together, you let me be friendly with you and interact with you freely without expressing: “hey, i have a problem with you!” why wasn’t your initial response to send me a message? you have my discord, we’ve been in chats tg, my asks are on, and my inbox for all my blogs are open. so why immediately just start speaking of me like that on the blogs. i had to find out that there was an issue with me through some of my mutuals blocking me and reading your posts by chance. frankly, i wasn’t even given a chance to show the storyline in its fullest before everyone jumped the gun and automatically made what the arc was going to be before i did. also, about “graphic being stolen” every graphic i’ve ever made was inspired by a bunch of pinterest trends put together and it’s only so many ways you can edit posts in this community. not to throw shade at myself, but my graphics are also extremely basic for the most part. i’ve never been a graphic heavy girl, so what graphics could i possibly be copying?

returning to the storyline, the motives behind yana and jiali and hyunjae situation are entirely different to those of anything i’ve read personally in this community. their relationship is complicated. the circumstances in their situations are very different. i’m assuming this inference was made based on an ask game response…which gave little to no backstory to what was actually going on in the arc…

you can’t expect to come at someone with aggression and not expect aggression back. that’s literally just life, i fear!

finished an important piece with almost 3k words and broke things off with a toxic man

[aevortex]

i wanna make a docuseries for one of my groups….

[aevortex]

now that i’m back and have started planning and reworking most things in the nyaverse, i just wanna share some of the changes that i’ve made :D

unfortunately, poison has canonically disbanded in 2021, however, that is not the last you’ll see of some of these members !

mali has officially signed to countessa recordings in early 2024.

also, countessa recordings is no longer a subsidiary of zephyr entertainment, it is it’s own entity and natalia hwang has terminated her contract with zephyr officially in 2023.

as you can tell by my pinned, in my active blogs section, almost all of my initial oc’s have unfortunately been sent to npcdom 😓 the only remaining og who is active and not an npc is my girl natalia!

with love!, ravana, and the pinkettes all still exist in the nyaverse, just as npc’s (meaning they will not be getting their own content but will still make appearances in active oc’s storylines 🙂‍↕️🤞🏾)

[aevortex]

hey y’all i’m officially back and can’t wait to start back posting 🙂‍↕️

𖥔 ࣪ ᥫ᭡ꗃ⋆࣪. I KNOW IT’S OVER … A JOO HANA STORY

FEATURED. JOO HANA, MICKEY MOON

SUMMARY. in which hana knows it’s over but it won’t die.

WARNINGS. very heavy piece, sexual assault trauma, ptsd symptoms, angst, there is no sexual assault explicitly described but it is heavily implied and a prevalent theme in this piece, please mind the tags !

NOTES. another reupload ! hope y’all enjoy <3

Hana finds herself hiding a lot now. She doesn’t want to take up too much space. She doesn’t want people to see her the way she feels. She talks less because she’s not sure if she even wants to be heard. She does less because she doesn’t know what she’s doing anymore.

She feels alone because she has no one.

She wants to be held but she doesn’t want to be touched. She wants so much but at the same time she wants nothing at all—nothing at all except to curl up into a ball and die. She wants to be nothing at all.

Hana sits in her bed in a crisscross position. In her lap sits a notepad and in her hand is a pen. There’s nothing that she wants to think about in between her ears, just the blaring of the music coming from her earphones. She scribbles words onto the paper, repeating over and over: ‘I DON’T KNOW,’ written with reckless abandon. She thought that if she wrote what she felt instead of trying to say it she would feel better. Turns out she couldn’t put her feelings into writing, either.

How can you feel better when you don’t know the root of the problem? How can you understand what’s wrong with you when you don’t know where to begin?

She couldn’t get in touch with any of her emotions so another one began to form over time: Rage. Pure and unadulterated rage. She can feel its hands claw at her skin and peel it off. She can feel it’s tight hold on her heart, weighing it down by tons. She feels it sinking like a ship at sea on a stormy night. Her heart was stuck in this place, stuck in a moment in time that it couldn’t move past.

And she tried to make her heart move on but everything—everyone always took her back to this place. Why didn’t it ever fade it into a distant memory? Why was it always happening? Again and again. She’s done feeling it, she shouldn’t have to feel it anymore.

‘It’s over,’ she tells herself. She covers her ears and closes her eyes, shrinking into herself. ‘It’s over,’ she repeats.

It’s over. It’s over. It’s over.

A knock on the door startles her. Her breathing speeds up and heart beats violently in her chest. She can feel it in her throat, her heartbeat.

“Hana?” A voice is soft on the other side of the door.

Hana says nothing. She doesn’t want the company, but she knows she can do nothing to control it anyway. Much like most of the things in her life; completely out of her control.

The door opens slowly, revealing Mickey’s figure. She steps in, closing the door gently behind her. She studies the girl, taking in her image. She doesn’t know what to say to Hana anymore. She can see that Hana’s hurting but she feels like she can't do anything to fix it. She didn’t know how to help.

“Hey, we just ordered some donuts,” she informs. “It’s your favorite. Krispy Kreme.”

Krispy Kreme was her favorite. She loved glazed donuts, especially warmed up with a glass of cold milk. Homemade meals were comfort foods for everyone else but for Hana, the only food that could bring her comfort was the mellowness of a soft, warm donut in the pit of her empty stomach.

Hana nods, quickly looking up at her and then back into her lap.

“We were…” Mickey starts but her voice falters for some reason. Hana takes her earbuds out of her ears, cradling them in the palms of her hands. “We were just about to put on a movie.”

She nods again.

“It seems like a Disney day. We were thinking ‘Aladdin.’”

Mickey is making this interaction more painful than it has to be. For both of them. She knows that Hana won’t say anything. But she still tries. Everyone thinks it’s useless for her to keep trying, but Mickey is tireless. She would never be able to forgive herself if she just ‘stopped trying.’

“You’ve picked up a little artistry here, huh?” Mickey jests. “What’ve you been writing?”

She not-so-sneakily takes a peek at her paper, eyeing the words written down. Her hopeful smile is replaced with one of sympathy. Her eyes wear a concerned look, feeling wet almost immediately.

“Listen. Hana, if you ever need to talk…um, I’m right next door,” Mickey says.

“My door is always open.”

Hana flashes a tight-lipped smile at her. She nods. The doors are open but is she ready to go through them? Will she ever be ready? If she walks through those doors, that means she’ll have to talk about it. And talking about it—actually talking about it with someone who isn’t the blurred version of her in her head would make it more real than she felt it had to be.

All this time she’d been able to pretend, even if just for a moment, that the girl he did that to wasn’t her. She was able to disassociate herself from that person.

She looks up at Mickey and nods once again.

“I know.”

Mickey grins at her.

“If you need something let me know,” she reminds before heading back to the door and exiting, gently shutting the door behind her.

Hana’s eyes shift across her room as the girl leaves. They land on a picture sitting atop her bedside table. It’s a picture of her and Zhiruo, displayed in a pale yellow frame. She looks at old pictures of herself and can’t even recognize her. She has no recollection of who that girl is, for all she knows she’s never seen her a day in her life.

She has no memory of when she was that okay. She has no memory of anything that happened before it happened. All she knows it’s that it’s over and that’s all she keeps telling herself.

Hana covers her ears and closes her eyes, shrinking into herself. ‘It’s over,’ she repeats.

It’s over. It’s over. It’s over.

[aevortex]

btw everything that i wrote about hana before in the raventail days is still canon !!!
