Development
Kazuaki Imai, who directed Doraemon: Nobita's Treasure Island (2018) and Doraemon: Nobita's New Dinosaur (2020), returned to direct the film. Teruko Utsumi took the responsibility of the writing of screenplay who has written screenplays for many episodes of Doraemon.
Scenario setting
Kazuaki Imai stated that he got the idea of the story of the film during the lockdown period of COVID-19 pandemic. He said, "When I finished directing my previous work "New Dinosaur", the world had changed in an unexpected way due to the pandemic caused by the Novel coronavirus. Children were more stressed when the human nature of direct contact and interaction was restricted. One day, I was deeply moved when I saw my son, who was stuck at home, singing loudly while watching TV. It was a programme that connected each performer remotely and performed one song while the concert could not be held. At the same time as I was struck by the power of music, the image of children going on a big adventure in the world of music with Doraemon began to swell in my head."[3][4]
