Kand Do lets heartbreak linger in webtoon OST 'My Heart is Stained'

Singer Kand Do has poured the poignant narrative of a webtoon into her voice. On July 11 at noon, Kand Do released 'My Heart is Stained,' the OST for the webtoon 'The Depressing Life of the Wicked Duke's Daughter,' through various online music platforms.

Kand Do's vocals capture the lingering traces of parting

This new song deals with the psychology of a character who remains stuck in longing and waiting even after letting go of a loved one. It calmly portrays the narrator's state of hovering around the space left by passed time, unable to fully accept the breakup.

The lyrics concretize the lingering traces of separation through the air and space of the seasons. Phrases such as 'The seasonal air still remains, so with a glimmer of hope, I turn my steps back once more' and 'Thinking that we might meet if I wait, I cannot leave, and so several hours pass' express the lingering attachment toward the other person. Kand Do led the emotion of the song by starting with calm vocals in the early part and increasing the emotional density toward the latter half.

High-quality production featuring Pilsungbulpae, John Kim, and 05

A team of talented producers participated to ensure the song's high quality. Composers Pilsungbulpae, John Kim, and 05, who possess numerous OST and ballad hits, collaborated to complete the track. This release provided by Yogurt Studio is a result of combining Kand Do's vocals with the webtoon's narrative.

Emotions aligned with the narrative of the webtoon 'The Depressing Life of the Wicked Duke's Daughter'

The webtoon 'The Depressing Life of the Wicked Duke's Daughter,' which serves as the background for this OST, tells the story of Irene, who becomes possessed as the villain in a novel, and the second prince Schuert, who is destined to live as a dog during the day due to a curse.

Schuert's narrative of gradually opening his heart to Irene, who approaches him kindly without knowing her true identity, aligns with the emotion of the song. Reflecting the atmosphere of the work, 'My Heart is Stained' sung by Kand Do puts the feeling of being unable to forget even after a parting at the forefront.
