This music album is created for the game “9999 Days”, with artwork by Jung Min Lee rooted in the apocalyptic narrative, stemming from the environmental havoc caused by the 2019 pandemic and climate change coupled with societal trauma. The “9999 Days” series, a fusion of painting and gaming, follows the character Harpy through a post-apocalyptic world depicted in paintings and a video game format. It delves into the consequences of human actions, envisioning a future where only remnants of civilization remain amidst ruins, while also evoking nostalgia for the lost human civilization from the perspective of the Harpies, newly created beings brought into existence by humans.
In a world ravaged by climate change, the brink of extinction was teetered
upon by humanity. Food shortages and a deadly virus threatened their
existence. Desperate to preserve their legacy, scientists embarked on an
audacious project named “9999 Days”. Within this limited time frame, they
birthed a new species known as “Harpy”, a remarkable chimaera blend-
ing the traits of birds and humans. Through parthenogenesis, the Harpies
reproduced, giving birth solely through eggs. Their unique existence held the key to humanity’s survival, a beacon of hope in the face of impending doom.
