Spring~ (Everland, April 2016)

What better way to complement the cherry blossom season than to listen to songs that give off that refreshing spring vibe?
This time last year, I was in the middle of my 7.5 day (how specific lol) South Korea trip. My friends and I got to experience spring at its peak! Cherry blossom flowers falling from the trees, bright flowers lining the streets, the high sun and cool wind accompanying us on our adventures -- name it! We even experienced spring showers! I'm in a nostalgic mood because Facebook kept on reminding me that I was in one of my favorite countries a year ago ㅜㅜ
Anyway, here are some Korean songs that will make you feel and appreciate the spring season more:
For when you're walking down a cherry blossom tree-lined path with your love...
Cherry Blossom Ending - Busker, Busker
As the spring wind blows
The scattering cherry blossom petals
Spread out on this street
As we walk together
As the spring wind blows
The scattering cherry blossom petals
Spread out on this street
As we walk together
This is one of the most popular spring songs in South Korea. During our trip, I would always hear this song playing in shops or being performed live by random street performers (busking!)!! It's also amusing because every March-April, this song will creep back in Korea's music charts even if this was released last 2012. This song literally signals the country that heeeey~ sun's out, it's finally spring!
For when you're feeling nostalgic (and sad?) about your past love...
For when you're reminiscing the time you met the love of your life on a bright spring day...
Bom Bom Bom - Roy Kim
Spring, spring, spring, spring has come
With that scent of when we first met
Spring, spring, spring, spring has come
With that scent of when we first met
Another spring staple in South Korea... if the title isn't obvious enough! :)
For when you still feel stuck in winter because everyone is in a "It's spring and I'm in love" mood and you're still single...
For when you're convincing someone that you like him/her...
For when you still feel stuck in winter because everyone is in a "It's spring and I'm in love" mood and you're still single...
Not Spring, Love or Cherry Blossoms - HIGH4 ft. IU
Everyone but me is in love
Singing spring songs
Flowers are blooming before my eyes
I want to hear something else
Ironically, despite its lyrics, this song definitely gives off that fresh, light, happy, spring vibe! (lol)
I'm Serious - DAY6
I'm serious
My eyes surely say "I like you"
Why don't you feel it?
Don't you get wind when you see my face?
The most recent song in this list! DAY6's talent + skills + visuals = how can you not take these guys seriously?? Alsoooo... #JYPNationLove!
For when you're feeling nostalgic (and sad?) about your past love...
One Spring Day - 2AM
How was your commute to work this morning?
How were you in this warmed up weather?
You, who especially got cold easily
Continuing the JYP Nation love, I distinctly remember listening to this song last 2013 when I was still a newbie to the Kpop world. It's not your typical fluffy spring music and you can definitely feel the powerful, sad emotions behind it.
For when you need that comforting song to get you through a rough day...
Hopefully Sky - Eunji of APINK
We can see the biggest star in our neighborhood
In the spring when warm sunlight blooms the flowers
I was in Korea when this song was released last year and it automatically topped the charts! Eunji's voice (and smile!) is just so soothing. I remember immediately including this song in my melOn playlist after hearing it.
For when you're on a "some" stage with someone and a confession is about to happen...
Fool - Juniel ft. Jung Yong Hwa of CNBLUE
I’m a fool, I’m a fool who only sees you, I love you
No matter what anyone says or teases, I will be a fool who only sees you
Back to the fluffy music! This is one of the best stages... right? The "some" stage ;)
For when your relationship with someone has ended and you're questioning/regretting things with that said person...
For when you're attracted to someone and you feel like s/he is attracted to you too...For when your relationship with someone has ended and you're questioning/regretting things with that said person...
Shouldn't Have - Baek A Yeon ft. Young K of DAY6
Those words you said that made my heart flutter all night
You shouldn’t have said them
You shouldn’t have
From fluff to angst real quick lol! Baek A Yeon's claim to fame... the song that topped Korea's music charts last May-June 2015! The song is so relatable and A Yeon's voice and Brian's (Young K) rap are perfect.
Love Blossom - K. Will
Spring comes, into this street
Spring comes, between us
Our flustered hearts rises, oh
I will never get tired of this song because it always makes me feel giddy! Also, Myungsoo is sooo good looking!
For when you KNOW that spring is your time to rise and bloom...
I - Taeyeon of Girl's Generation
Sky that pours light
I stand under it
Fly as if I'm dreaming
My life is a beauty
Since spring also symbolizes fresh beginnings, isn't this song apt? More than 3 months of the year have gone by but we are still here... surviving, LIVING! :) It's such an assuring and lovely thought. Our lives are indeed "a beauty." :)
HAPPY EASTER! :D I hope you enjoyed reading this entry. I told you I'm back to blogging regularly!
