Pretty Boy 。❀ | the mix explained

Visit Spotify or 8tracks to listen to the playlist.

This playlist was originally created as a way for me to remember the mood of the story, what the characters are feeling, etc. so when I take a break from writing, I can just play the music to get back in the "mood" of the story.

 The music selected is ordered approximately according to events in the story except for a couple, which I think influences the general feel of the storyline instead of a specific plot point. Some of the explanations for the selection is a spoiler to the story, so I'll exlude it. The playlist is mostly Western/English music, with a few exceptions from BTS, of course. 

  1. Helplessly - Tatiana Manaois 
    • The lyrics to this song is so obviously Taehyung after he's met Min Jung. It's that heart-wrenching, can't sleep, can't eat lovesickness that's got him glued to his phone as he anticipates a text from her. She's got him hooked.
  2. Anti-Everything - Lost Keys ft. Loren Gray
    • Min Jung is a cynic about love. Especially after going through a rough break up in the past, her distrust on pretty boys is kind of profound. Until Taehyung came into her life and basically up-ended everything she's sworn off.
  3. Back in my Arms - Carlie Hanson
    • I came across this song from Jungkook's Spotify playlist. Just like the first song in this list, this song kind of describes how Taehyung feels about Min Jung after doing it. His feelings are a little naughty but also a little sweet when he thinks about the first time.
  4. Lips on Lips - Tiffany Young
    • This upbeat, tropical vibey song describes what Taehyung and/or Min Jung feels when they're near each other. It's that young love, we-can-do-anything emotion they feel whenever they're on a date.
  5. Wait - IRIS
    • Spoiler.
  6. Magic Shop - BTS
    • No real reason for including this, except for Taehyung's velvety vocals in the beginning. 
  7. Honey - LAY 
    • Spoiler, but let me give you a teaser: TaeTae becomes an . Explanation will come after the chapter reveals this.
  8. BLACKJACK - Aminé
    • I am 103% sure this song got a spike on hits when Taehyung filmed himself singing along to this on their Twitter. Anyway, this song exudes the kind of confident swagger TaeTae is trying to personify in the story.
  9. bad guy (with justin beiber) - billie eilish
    • Spoiler.
  10. you should see me in a crown - billie eilish
    • Spoiler.
  11. i swear i'll never leave again - keshi
    • Spoiler
  12. MIC DROP - BTS
    • Including this because it was one of the main songs (this, and DNA) that is featured in the story. BTS is currently doing promotions for MIC DROP and DNA during the story.
