Created back in 2002, this song is rather sad, but however, the music video is done in a very unique way, turning it into a rather touching clip.
Just like the lyrics, the video shows about a building relationship to be broken... but the twist is towards the end of it, where the guy sacrificed his career & love for the girl by donating his eyes to her, and for her to live on well. This shows the strong love & the big heart of the guy for the girl.
This music video is falls in the rather typical imaginary-romance of 'beautiful love' Asian pop music is known of. However, its bold storyline has created a big fanbase, and I'm sure has touched the hearts of many.
To one extend, the song itself has been translated to a few different languages - with the more notable ones in Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese & Tagalog.
There is also an English version by Jini, one of the original members of the band.
Orignial Korean Version
Mandarin Version
I've listened to the English version of this song before I got to know that the original ones were from Korean. Anyway, both are wonderful song and indeed, very touching =)
ReplyDeleteBtw, there's another Korean pianist/song composer called Yiruma, who's really talented and his music are quite inspiring as well. You should try listen to one of his well-known piece of piano music, Kiss The Rain -Yiruma.
