Vienna Teng is a genre writer. She just happens write songs instead of stories.
Songs like "The Hymn of Acxiom" and "No Gringo" and "Radio" are all speculative fiction. "Blue Caravan" is somehow a historical drama. "In Another Life" is one of those twisty reincarnation romances that masquerade as literary fiction because the prose is beautiful. "My Medea" is one of those retellings of ancient myths that are so hot right now. If "Watershed" were a short story, it would be taught in scifi classes at Ivy League colleges.
And every time I listen to "Whatever You Want" song, I realize it's the plot of a Korean melodrama. And I want that Kdrama.
I'm now pondering who I would cast....

my brain keeps rotating it to try to figure out how it fits into the Untamed though - the theme of people who have been overlooked or dismissed as unimportant turning out to have power of their own is definitely a throughline in both song and show, but I can't get the exact characters to match!

I know! I actually thought of this but also couldn't make it work!
