[랜덤] QWER (큐더블유이알) - 미니 1집 [MANITO]

The band QWER, who have been writing their own unique story of "harmony created from dissonance," has returned with the mini-album 'MANITO'. While their first single told the story of the formation of the four members—Chodan, Magenta, Hina, and Siyeon—who come from different backgrounds, and established the team's identity, 'MANITO' intends to unfold the inner feelings of QWER, who experienced a meeting like destiny, as a single drama. "You might have thought it was a coincidence, but all of this is fate." Even if the process of becoming each other's "Manito" (secret friend) was a coincidence, the newly forming relationships between them can be interpreted as a fateful encounter. Looking back, the destiny-like connections around us begin with small coincidences, such as being placed in the same class or being assigned to sit next to each other. Furthermore, like the butterfly effect where a small flutter of wings creates a meaningful movement, small gears come together to carve out their own great destiny. In this album, the members, who accidentally became each other's Manitos, wish to present the process of creating a single destiny under the name QWER. Above all, the dramatic structure—set in a school and unfolding chronologically from day to night—stands out, weaving familiar themes such as feelings for someone they admire, friendship with peers, band activities, and the school after hours into the music with unique keywords. Additionally, by composing a variety of distinctive songs that are not confined to the framework of a "band," it is expected to once again imprint QWER's unique charm on the public. 1.

Because I was your Manito too.
