music<\/a> was such a new and exciting experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\tFor Tablo, a veteran of the Korean music industry, his own daughter, Haru, was a big reason why he signed on to produce the track. \u201cThe youngest member (Kya) is actually the same age as Haru,\u201d Tablo explains, gathered on the Zoom with KiiiKiii. \u201cI\u2019ve always wanted to try something or work on a project that would speak to her. I thought that KiiiKiii, as a group overall, speaks specifically to that audience.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tTablo\u2019s daughter didn\u2019t just serve as an inspiration for him taking on the project, she also participated in its creation. \u201cShe actually wrote the lyrics with me,\u201d he explains, noting that he realized he hadn\u2019t been that young in a while. \u201cI wanted to look through the eyes of KiiiKiii. Also, because this is related to a web novel, I wanted it to represent the thoughts and worries and hopes and dreams that are present within someone like Haru\u2019s mind, someone that is KiiiKiii age.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tSiu says that she felt comforted when she first read the lyrics. \u201cWhen we heard that Tablo was talking to Haru while writing the lyrics, we were very inspired by the fact that he was taking everyday life and thoughts and making that into music,\u201d she says. <\/p>\n
\n\tTablo also thought about how this style of song would fit into KiiiKiii\u2019s overall image. \u201cI\u2019ve had such a long career, so I understand how all songs in a musician\u2019s discography play an important role\u2026 I\u2019ve had certain songs that I never imagined would become the most important songs for Epik High or for me. They somehow just end up that way,\u201d he explains. <\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cI believe that that\u2019s why it\u2019s important for artists to try different things and to tell different stories. Sometimes even when fans don\u2019t expect it or particularly want it because it fleshes out the world that KiiiKiii is,\u201d Tablo continues. \u201cI hope that KiiiKiii, with their next album too, try different things and the dots will connect way later. I would always say to young artists, try different things.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tTrying new things seems to be on the top of mind for KiiiKiii as well. \u201cWe have always said that we want to try a lot of diverse concepts, especially because we\u2019re still rookies,\u201d Haum says. She reinforces what her group members said, that \u201cTo Me From Me\u201d has been a track where they\u2019ve been able to explore.<\/p>\n
\n\tKiiiKiii debuted on the K-pop scene earlier this year with their first release, \u201cI Do Me,\u201d which felt like a breath of fresh air. The song is infectiously catchy, a fitting soundtrack for a slumber party or an outdoor adventure. The music video opted for an effortlessly fun and youthful feel, trading in glossy, big sets for scenic mountain views. <\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cWe never expected that we were going to gets so much love and support from so many people,\u201d Jiyu says of their debut year. \u201cWe still have many things to learn and experience, so we\u2019re dreaming a very positive future. We\u2019re going to keep working even harder.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
