Although her newest song is not a drama OST, but I think it deserves a special post on this blog ^-^
I lost count how many times I've been repeating her new song, the title track from her newest album "Meet Him Among Them". This song has a very simple melody and Lee Sun Hee's deep powerful voice complements it very beautifully. Her raw emotion touches my soul, it calms me down when I listen to this song with my eyes closed.
The Music Video is really touching, sad, yet beautiful. It superbly captures the miracles of fate and unending love:
- a blind man got a surprise gift: a dog who becomes his loyal companion. They spent many years together, enjoying each other's company. But one day, he lost his best friend, he looked for him everywhere - screaming out his name, until fate reunited them together again
- unending love of an elderly couple. The wife nagged to her husband a lot. But now she's no longer by his side, he has to do everything alone. He's not ready to let her go... :(
- a couple broke up. The woman dedicated herself to her work, the man married another woman. They cross path again few months (or few years) later, the man is now a father. They're not meant to be together although it's clear the woman still loves him. He moved on, but she hasn't.
- a sacrificial love of a woman who takes care her boyfriend who's sick with cancer. When her boyfriend was upset, mad, disappointed; she stood by him. She kept coming back to see him, crying when she didn't see him on his bed - scared something bad happened to him. After she saw him getting really upset because he lost his hair due to his treatment, she boldly shaved her hair for the man she really loves. T_T
I love it that the MV beautifully shows different aspects of life: young couples, elderly couple, man & his dog. It captures the reality of life: we meet a very special person by fate, but one day, we'll have to say goodbye to this special person due to various circumstances (ie. break up, death, etc). Whether we're ready or not, we have to accept this reality :( We love them, and miraculously we receive their love in return. If we're destined to be together, then we will be together. But if not, then we have to bid our farewell and move on.
The last part of this MV is very special. It captures a strong bond between her and her fans for 30 long years. By fate, Lee Sun Hee met her fans, and her fans discovered this amazing legendary singer. She sings her heart out for her fans, and her fans love & support her. It seemed like they grew apart because she didn't release any album in 5 years (her 14th album was released in 2009), but for her fans, she's still there inside their hearts. Even if time passes, if their love was destiny, they will meet again. They meet again this year through her newest album. =)
