Pleasant Surprise! Kingdom of the Wind OST Live

3 02 2009

Well at least for me.  I have heard this song when this drama was about to launch.  Knowing its Wheesung who will be singing the main theme… it there any reason for me not to listen to it? I could listen  to him even if its trot.

What a pleasant surprise to know he did sing this song live.  All along i thought he will remain a great voice behind the wonderful OST of the said drama.  Thanks to selvaspeedy for sharing this video.  Cherbear was right afterall it was indeed hard to follow through Wheesung and the sad part is videos of his performances in You Tube are posted a bit late than bubble gum ones.   I also did find this video when he recorded the song. 

My jaw dropped voluntarily, hearing the acapella intro.  It was 100% Wheesung’s voice alone at the start, and 200% man is gorgeous at 1:49 to 2:00. The side view and facial expression is killing me.   He’s not wearing fancy clothes during the recording…really good to see him that way — feels like someone to walk with leisurely.   Credits to jazzaylink for the video on this one.





살아서도죽어서도 (Saraseodo Chukeoseodo)

I finally got the chance to listen to the main theme song of  the newest Korean Period Drama –Land of the wind.  I have searched on Korean websites where I can listen to some sort of drama preview with the main theme being played.

Check the the preview and 살아서도죽어서도 (Saraseodeo chukeoseodo).

The song title has been translated in some websites as Alive…and Dead but it doesn’t seem to be good to be an English title of a song so I am making my own translation of the title — To Live and To Die.  Please go and check the link while its there.  Listen to the wonderful voice of Wheesung ;-)

After singing the Official Soundtrack (OST) for Three Dad and One Mom TV series, Wheesung once again brings life to another OST.  This time for the new KBS drama Land of the Wind featuring Jumong star Song Ilgook.

Land of the Wind is not far from Jumong as it is a period drama as well and to some extent a continuation of the said story.  The drama focuses on Jumong’s grandson Moo Hyul who later on became Daemusin.

What interest me is to hear the main theme Alive…and Dead… which according to news is being received well by viewers and fans of k-pop.
