Singer Yoari sings the OST of ‘Check In Hanyang’.

The new weekend drama ‘Check In Hanyang’ (written by Park Hyun-jin/directed by Myung Hyun-woo/planned by Channel A/produced by Wemad, Artist Studio, Story Networks/joint production and investment by PONY CANYON), which will be aired for the first time on the 21st, is a youth romance historical drama that contains the eventful growth of Joseon‘s flower youths who enter Joseon’s largest inn ‘Yongcheonru’. The harmonious chemistry and youthful energy of the four actors Bae In-hyeok (Lee Eun, Lee Eun-ho), Kim Ji-eun (Hong Deok-soo), Jung Gun-joo (Chun Jun-hwa), and Park Jae-chan (Go Soo-ra) are the biggest points of interest.

The dancing cactus and goblin composers who worked on the ‘Check In Hanyang’ OST Part. 1 ‘Dark Night’ are young producers from Blue Key Music, and the ‘Man and Woman’ OST THAMA - ‘When I’m with This team has been increasing their recognition by composing many drama BGMs and OSTs recently, including U‘, ’Queen of Mask‘ OST Jeong In - ’Ain‘t No Joke’.

‘Dark Night’ is a song that expresses the narrative of a character in the drama finding hope and getting back up even in a desperate situation. Lyrics such as “Remember, flowing tears”, “If there is one starlight that goes against fate” reveal that one can change fate with one‘s own hands, raising expectations for a big change in the character in the drama in the future.

Blue Key Music producers said that ‘Dark Night’ was a 3-beat song that they thought would be the most suitable for the mood of a historical drama, and that they tried to incorporate the mood of a historical drama in the sound and melody. Singer Yoari, who participated as a singer, showed off her sorrowful voice and expressiveness, heightening the immersion of the song and the play and well blending Yoari’s unique personality.

Yoari gained global attention last year through the OST True for the drama ‘My Demon’, and has been active in various fields, participating in several OSTs such as ‘Understanding of Love’, ‘Hell is Other People’, ‘You Are My Spring’, ‘Black Sun‘.

Meanwhile, Yoari‘s ’Dark Night’ for Channel A’s new Saturday-Sunday drama ’Check In Hanyang‘ will be released on music sites at 6 PM on December 21. ‘Check In Hanyang’ will be first broadcast on Saturday, December 21st at 9:10 PM.
