Sleepless

January 13, 2021

After such a long time. Didiyo, I found my courage to post something. Not really important but this song– ah, really. I can’t help but recently I am into K-Female Soloist that much, for example; Heize and now it’s time for Younha. Her recently song which called– Sleepless hit me that hard.


Feel so blue, but, this song perfect for this season and really represent my mood recently. Epitone Project’s lyrics, Younha's soulful voice, Kim Seon Ho's puppy eyes and the melancholic music video are.. perfect combination.

The Hardest Part

April 20, 2019

Now it feels like autumn is here.

Roy Kim is coming back with another song of separation; The Hardest Part whose literal translation as "Let's stop here," is the sequel of the song Only then that tell us about separation is the most difficult and most painful things in a relationship. “Let’s stop” is one phrase that contain such a deep meaning. The word that commonly used to describe we tired of something or the desire to give up. Or also declares a goodbye that make them start a lonely part. Separation is not something that easy to get over and needs more time to dealing with it.

 Yes, no matter how hard I try
What can’t become, what can’t be done
Is all my fault in the end
I tried praying alone
But seeing myself wanting something I can’t have
Was sadder

It's story about a man who acknowledges that his relationship already in the edge. No matter what he does and how he tries to fix it, everything happens because of all his fault.

Only Then

November 11, 2018

Listening to sad songs is my number one hobby. Not because I want to hurt myself, but in addition to chilling down, because ballad is slow and soft. Actually this song was released last winter, but I'm going to write especially to welcoming my favourite month; November rain.

I remind silent for a while while held my breath after solemnly watched the MV last February. As usual, Roy Kim- my solely autumn boy, coming back with another heart-wreaking pieces; Only Then.


Typical another Sangwoo's song, this is heart-breaking but not violent in delivery.

This song conveys a message about the overwhelming sadness and despair of a man who feels his relationship with his lover has been on the edge and he is trying so hard to avoid a breakup that seems in sight. 

The way to love me isn’t hard
Just hold me tight like you are now
We don’t know what will happen to us later
But I like that nothing’s decide.

Who cares what others say?
We can’t live without each other,
So what’s the problem?
We can be more in love together.

It's clearly tells the heart of a man who doesn’t want to break up for reasons that he thinks are not stronger than their love. Just like the tittle “Only Then”, he also wants to tell that there is the best time to break up. This is really interesting for me as a woman, through this song, perhaps I can know a little about how a man views in a relationship.

When Autumn Comes

August 26, 2017

I often feel as if I've forgotten something important or as if something is missing.
I'm not the only one who experience this, right?

As a girl who trapped in ISFP personality, I uphold every little things at peaceful moment. Every single things in this world have big meaning. Impact are the rare things nowdays.

I never into Kpop that much. Most Kpop song isn't something that can touch your hear, but it'll be exception for their ballad. I have several soloist like; K.Will, Isu M.C The Max, Sung Sikyung, Eru, Junsu, Navi, etc who can fill my ballad-craved. K-indie and ballad artists are blessed people, they are really worth to listen.

The day before, I had crush with this silly handsome man. He is one of the winner from Superstar K. It feels like I found young version of Lee Seunggi's by hearing his song.

Here is it..
Roy Kim (Kim Sangwoo) - When Autumn Comes


He had sad aura, but it's not that kind of sadness that make you cry and break down, it's warm. His voice can heal but almost to the point of it hurting. Not in a bad way, though. Comforting. It's that kind of warm that you feel at the end of the day, when you're sitting on the bus on your way home after a long day.

That is why I love Roy Kim.
His calmness.

His voice is heavenly and perfect. He music is not typical Korean but so westernised. He is such an amazing and beautiful singer being. I observed his several MV.. and yep, I'm so drawn with it. Those MVs are so simple but convey so much emotion. Whoever directs his MV are geniuses. They're always so subtle but leaves such an impactfull feeling.

My feeling;
Since I live in tropic area and never going aboard, I never had any experience living on four-seasons country, I only know hot and rainy days, but I really crazy over fall-winter scenery.

There is something special about fall, may is refreshing but there is a bit sadness, about leaving from light to darkness, because we are going from summer to winter.

My dream is very small, it's just to sit with you
On this bench filled with fallen leaves, just sit with you till sunset
The people walking on the street while holding hands
Do they know how precious is that?

Simply, right?

If you're such a ballad trash like me, just try to listen his song. I recommend; Stay, I Want to be with You, The Great Dipper and Nothing Last Forever.

Fyi, I also like other Superstar K-pop finalist, Hong Daekwang.
