Letter Translation:
To. Jimin
Jimin-ah, you've worked so hard during these promotions!!
I think this album is even more meaningful because it's your own solo album
I feel like it's an album that really makes you excited for what Jimin as an artist will bring in the future!
They say that in this world, great things cannot be accomplished without passion.
Even if you have to go through countless trials and pain, don't forget the 'passion' you feel right now and I hope you'll continue to show us really cool things in the future as well
I'm always cheering you on
Your hope

May I entice the masses with the concept of a Will Wood Jukebox Musical?
Around a month ago me and a good friend of mine were listening to Will Wood’s discography and they offhandedly threw “Wouldn’t it be cool if someone made a Mama Mia equivalent with his songs?” into the air.
This thought stuck with me for a while until I found myself incredibly bored during a 3 hour-long road trip and decided to kill some time.
Preface aside, I present…
[ Welcome To Suburbia The Musical ]

Narrative Summary:
A young couple attempt to escape the hardships of life by moving to a far-off picture-perfect town known by locals as ‘Suburbia’. Despite it’s shining appearance, the couple are troubled by unsettling peculiarities bursting at the suburb’s seams- but what’s a village without a little cooky culture?
Character Breakdown:
• James Campbell - An alcohol-dependent horror writer down on his publishing luck.
• Dai Lu Lee - A doctor specialising in the care of farm animals with an unfortunate talent for disappointing her parents.
• Cassie Logan - James & Dai Lu’s next door neighbour with an unsettling sense of humour.
• Morgan Logan - Cassie’s reserved wife working as a forensic investigator for the local PD with a predisposition to bad first impressions.
• Lin Lee - Dai Lu’s headstrong traditional father.
• Ming Lee - Dai Lu’s passive narcissistic mother.
• Mayor - Confident and charismatic front man of Suburbia with a messy past who’s always ready to offer a helping hand.
• Barkeeper - Eccentric and off-putting owner of a local bar that appears to be a front for a darker business.
• Therapist - Patient woman tending to Dai Lu’s psychiatrical and psychological needs.
• Secretary (Non-singing ensemble role) - Nerdy and shy assistant of The Mayor who is desperately enamoured, head-over-heels for her employer.
Act Synopses:
[Act 1]
James and Dai Lu, freshly engaged and already exhausted from life’s baggage, strike a ‘too-good-to-be-true’ deal on a down payment for a quaint home in the unmarked town of Suburbia. After being warmly welcomed by the ever so charming Mayor and their next door neighbours Cassie and Morgan, the couple begin to unwillingly face some of their fatal flaws as Dai Lu is forced to stare her regretful decision making right in its ugly face.
[Act 2]
James may recognise his now hard-to-hide attachment to alcohol, but he is far from apologetic about it. Frequenting a newly discovered bar on the outskirts of town results in his fiancée finding herself in a rather unusual predicament. Forced to work for a sleazy underground cabaret bar, she preforms a number detailing The Mayor’s dark and unfortunate past. All the while, The Mayor himself is trying to seduce her partner into a life overflowing with sin and dubious spiritual ties. Upon being reunited through the brilliant detective work of Morgan, the couple have yet another handful of complicated feelings to sort through.
[Act 3]
Decades of pious work from The Mayor’s hands finally come to a head as he no longer attempts to hide his servitude to a being he was never quite sure how to please. The town descends into uncertain insanity as every individual is consumed by their corrosive and abandoned insecurities. Dai Lu never quite moves past her disagreements with her parents, James never quite makes peace with being an utterly unremarkable writer and Morgan never quite solves the case that’s been scratching at the back of her mind for years. All those lives are, however, lost in vain as The Mayor misinterprets his Patron’s asks. The town of Suburbia stands desolate, bare, and belonging to a man who’s greatest desire is to be rid of it’s burden.

Naturally there is a much larger and in depth plot summary, thought-out blocking for musical numbers and some in progress character designs that I have crammed into my Master Doc for this behemoth of an original work.
Keep in mind this concept is far from finalised, more characters may be added and more songs might be written into the narrative.
I’d be more than happy to go more in detail about it and accept any form of suggestions or feedback if the users of Tumblr happen to find this interesting :)
In the mean time, if you find yourself interested in this work and would like to listen to the songs in chronological order I have compiled a playlist you can find bellow… ↓↓↓
