Description (Translated):

The band 'QWER', created through the 'Favorite Children' project planned by mega creator Kim Gye-ran, debuts with the release of its first single 'Harmony from Discord'. The group name QWER comes from the QWERTY keyboard layout and the order of skill placement in an online game, and includes popular creators Chodan (Q) and Magenta (W), Hina (E), who has 4 million followers on TikTok, and Japanese idol Siyeon from NMB48. (R) is made up of members with different personalities. Just as players create games by combining QWER skills, band members plan to tell QWER's unique music and stories based on their individual charms and talents.

“From dissonance to harmony, a story that only QWER can tell”

The first single 'Harmony from Discord' is based on the slogan "Our harmony comes from discord" and conveys the ambition of four members who have lived different lives to come together under the name of QWER and create beautiful harmony. The album contains a variety of stories, including growth stories derived from precious relationships with the members, as well as a promise to move forward as an artist and unique emotions.


1. Harmony of the stars
Lyrics by Kim Hye-jeong, Lee Dong-hyuk / Composed by Lee Dong-hyuk, GESTURE, Elum, Hong Ji-hye, Lee Si-yeon / Arranged by Lee Dong-hyuk, Han A-young
“I’ll hold your hand so you don’t let go, like that shining star.”
'Harmony of the Stars' is a song that captures the narrative and friendship of QWER, who grows out of his anxious self into a bright and hopeful person. The performance reminiscent of a twinkling star and Siyeon's appealing vocals stand out.

2.Discord
Lyrics by Lee Dong-hyuk, GESTURE, Elum / Composed by Lee Dong-hyuk, Hong Hoon-ki, Elum, GESTURE, Kim Seung-jun, Hong Ji-hye, Lee Si-yeon / Arranged by Lee Dong-hyuk, Hong Hoon-ki, BuildingOwner
“Dissonance is okay, so what’s the problem?”
'Discord' is a title that means 'discord', and although it may seem confusing at times, it is a song containing the confident message of the QWER members that they will capture people's attention with their unstoppable charm. The fast and energetic performance, catchy, lively guitar riff, and witty lyrics are impressive.

3. Mystery Diary
Lyrics by Lee Dong-hyuk, GESTURE, Elum / Composed by Lee Dong-hyuk, GESTURE / Arranged by Lee Dong-hyuk
“This is all because of you~ Huh?!”
'Mystery Diary' is a song that delicately expresses in everyday language the inner feelings of a speaker who is in unrequited love and wants to get the other person's attention. The exciting and emotional vocals and the addictive chorus that anyone can easily follow are attractive.

Description (Original):

메가 크리에이터 김계란이 기획한 '최애의 아이들' 프로젝트를 통해 탄생한 밴드 'QWER'이 첫 싱글 'Harmony from Discord'를 발매하고 데뷔한다. 그룹명 QWER은 QWERTY 키보드 배열과 한 온라인 게임의 스킬 배치 순서인 QWER에서 비롯되었으며, 인기 크리에이터 쵸단(Q)과 마젠타(W), 틱톡 400만 팔로워를 소유한 히나(E), 일본 아이돌 NMB48 출신 시연(R)까지 각기 다른 개성의 멤버로 구성됐다. 플레이어가 QWER 스킬을 조합하여 게임을 만들어가는 것처럼, 밴드 멤버들은 각자의 매력과 재능을 바탕으로 QWER만의 음악과 이야기를 풀어나갈 예정이다.

"불협화음에서 하모니로, 오직 QWER만이 할 수 있는 이야기"

첫 싱글 'Harmony from Discord'는 “우리들의 하모니는 불협화음으로부터”라는 슬로건을 바탕으로, 서로 다른 삶을 살아왔던 네 명의 멤버들이 QWER이라는 이름 아래 모여 아름다운 하모니를 그려내겠다는 포부를 전한다. 멤버들과의 소중한 인연에서 비롯된 성장 스토리는 물론, 아티스트로서 나아가겠다는 다짐과 톡톡 튀는 감성까지 앨범에 다채롭게 담아 냈다.


1. 별의 하모니
Lyrics by 김혜정, 이동혁 / Composed by 이동혁, GESTURE, Elum, 홍지혜, 이시연 / Arranged by 이동혁, 한아영
"놓치지 않도록 너의 손을 잡아 줄게 저 빛나는 별처럼"
'별의 하모니'는 불안했던 자신의 모습을 벗어나 밝고 희망찬 모습으로 성장해가는 QWER의 서사와 우정을 담아낸 곡이다. 반짝이는 별을 연상시키는 연주와 시연의 호소력 있는 보컬이 돋보인다.

2. Discord
Lyrics by 이동혁, GESTURE, Elum / Composed by 이동혁, 홍훈기, Elum, GESTURE, 김승준, 홍지혜, 이시연 / Arranged by 이동혁, 홍훈기, BuildingOwner
"불협화음도 괜찮아 뭐 문제가 되려나"
'Discord'는 '불협화음'이라는 뜻을 가진 제목으로, 때론 좌충우돌처럼 보이지만 거침없는 매력으로 사람들의 시선을 사로잡겠다는 QWER 멤버들의 당당한 메세지가 담긴 곡이다. 빠르고 에너지 있는 연주와 귀를 사로잡는 경쾌한 기타 리프, 그리고 위트 있는 가사가 인상적이다.

3. 수수께끼 다이어리
Lyrics by 이동혁, GESTURE, Elum / Composed by 이동혁, GESTURE / Arranged by 이동혁
"이건 다 너 때문이라구요~ 네?!"
'수수께끼 다이어리'는 짝사랑에 빠져 상대방의 관심을 얻고 싶은 화자의 속마음을 일상적인 언어로 섬세하게 표현한 곡이다. 설렘 가득한 감성의 보컬과 누구나 쉽게 따라할 수 있는 중독성 있는 후렴구가 매력적이다.
