SONGS (in order, song inspos will be listed):
1. MERMAID PRINCESS (2017) | Song Inspo: "Mermaid Princess" by Mystic White
Based on the popular fairytale, The Little Mermaid, the song is about a girl who unable to express her feelings for her significant other. Jeonah cried while writing the song after reading the original tale of "The Little Mermaid" (plus her being an introvert helped digest the emotions). This song started the literary or fairytale-themed comebacks in Star Beam: "I Am" was based from "Swan Lake", "Love is Over" is from "The Love Witch" & "Flaming Heart" is from "Romeo & Juliet"
2. STARRY MOMENT (2018) | Song Inspo: "Starry Moment" by WJSN
This 90s new jack swing bubblegum pop song that discussed the girls' ideal date of gazing stars in the sky on a peaceful night (this was before they met their current boyfriends from NCT). The girls laughed on how they dreamed of having a date under the stars but they all have relationships during the pandemic. The song charted very well and even joined the reverse charting trend on Easter Sunday of 2021.
3. RIGHTS OF THE JEALOUS (2021) | Song Inspo: "My Error" by BVNDIT
This lo-fi, R&B jazz track was originally part of the OST of "Dear.M" (the drama that has Ryuna & NCT's Jaehyun as leads) but thanks to the unlikely circumstances that threatened the premiere of the drama, SeuBim decided to include it in the upcoming EP, "Chasing The Sun", which will be released in June. The story of the song is that when Ryuna briefed the group about her drama without spoiling too much, the members started to debate regarding the story of Dear.M's main characters, Minho (Jaehyun) & Narae (Ryuna). Few hours after the release of the song, it turned out that the teaser hinted that Minho is chasing Narae (who falls for someone else) which became a hot topic especially to SeuBim's staff. Dear.M was considered as Ryuna's most bittersweet point in her career. Lyrically, the song is about a girl who doesn't have a right to be jealous because she is not his girlfriend.
