Yael revealed that they traveled to Seoul and Chungju in South Korea to shoot the music video. He described the project as a “labor of love” from a fellow fan of “Queen of Tears.”

“I couldn’t help it, it was too moving to not write. There was an overwhelming need for a catharsis,” he added.

This marks the second time Yael has been inspired by a K-drama to create a song. Previously, Sponge Cola released “Siguro Nga,” inspired by the popular series “Start Up.”

Although fans can listen to “Tatlong Buwan” on music streaming platforms, the group has not yet released its official music video.
