21univ. releases conference room version of song comforting exhausted workers

The artist 21univ. has released a conference room version of the "Clock Out Song," which depicts the realistic rewards of delivery food and the desire for the weekend to soothe those enduring repetitive daily routines.

A song capturing the hearts of modern people waiting to finish work amidst repetitive daily routines has been released. The conference room version of "Clock Out Song" by artist 21univ. offers small comforts to those who have finished their day.

Repetitive daily life and sweet rewards after work

The lyrics delivered by 21univ. specifically depict the image of people heading home after finishing a hectic day. While the colorless daily life feels like "copy and paste" every day, the lyrics continue with a confession of enduring today for the sake of the free time permitted after work. Small scenes, such as watching videos while traveling by bus or being greeted by a cat upon returning home with an exhausted body, fill the flow of the song. The process of the day drawing to a close is described alongside the ticking of a clock that suddenly points to 7:00 PM.

In particular, the song focuses on the "gifts" one gives themselves after work. The moment of waiting briefly after ordering delivery food, or the act of allowing oneself delicious food after working hard, is depicted as the most realistic and sweet reward that those who have spent a fierce day can enjoy. The lyrics contain a determination to give oneself a gift for the hectic day that has passed. Along with the feeling of wanting to rush home immediately, the narrator of the song grants free time and delicious food to themselves for enduring the day well.

"Why isn't tomorrow the weekend?"... Realistic empathy

As the song moves toward the latter half, a realistic sense of regret emerges alongside the liberation of leaving work. Along with the emptiness of feeling that the day has already passed, the lyrics "Why isn't tomorrow the weekend?" express the common sorrows felt by those living daily lives, such as office workers and students. It captures the longing for leaving work, along with the wish that it might be a dream. The desperation to leave work is intuitively conveyed through the expression "I want to rush home right now."

The song concludes with the greeting, "You worked hard today, running frantically, good night." Through this conference room version, 21univ. delivers a message like a short rest to everyone who has endured the exhaustion of every day, even if there are no special events.
