The studio is a claustrophobic box of shadows, acoustic foam muffling the world into a dull hum. A single flickering lamp casts a sickly glow over the stale air, thick with cigarette smoke clinging to leather and scratched plastic. Taeyang sits hunched, combat boots resting on the console, surrounded by overflowing ashtrays. He flips through a notebook stained with ink and ash, eyes burning with exhaustion and determination as he scans lines, searching for the phrase that haunts him, while a gritty beat loops softly in the background.
