[A song per day]

Before our spring, a precious germ in Kpop industry has physically disappeared (and transformed into an angel).

Before our spring, a person has given up on his long-term battle fighting against depression.

Before our spring, people finally started to realize how serious mental illness can cause. 

Before our spring, the remaining pieces of a popular Kpop idol group have already suffered many things, from undergoing scandal to losing a friend that they have been close for more than 10 years.

And before our spring, the second and the last full album, along with the last single of his career, have been released. 

Just after our spring a few days, we celebrated day of birth anniversary to this person, but unfortunately, the main character cannot physically appear to join. 

Happy birthday, Kim Jonghyun, the main person I mentioned in those lines above. 27 times before, you celebrated it with people on Earth, but this time, and from now on, you will celebrate it with the whole universe. That will be more people than usual, and I'm sure it will be fun & happy

Talking about this track, I tried very hard to listen to the whole song as an audio, cause the melody and the whistle voice (?) are really really sad, plus the incident’s atmosphere even make it more bitter. About the MV, my tears have already fallen on my face after the first 5 seconds of the video, and I’m not able to finish that MV thoroughly. 

I remembered one of the silliest jokes many years ago. It was when a famous person passed away, though I don't remember the name. Then there were some several Facebook pages which the title said: “100000k (or any large number) likes for ... (name of the person) resurrected". I laugh at those pages, because no matter how many likes those pages get, the death person won't return to live. But for right now, I wish, if those pages can really make a person resurrected, I won’t hesitate creating one for JH. Although it was his choice to end his life, if there were more people convince him that he did a great job and need some rest, his choice could be changed, more positively.

I tend to write about this on 18th, but I probably will be sunk in finals so I rather write early then.

So, I know the fact that after that day, whenever SHINee performed this song, both fans and themselves cried, either out loud or just tears came out. But I’ve never heard that song in full until today, and decided to put it on repeat mode. And after listening, I understand why. Its lyric is so perfectly fit to their situation. And the music tone also. Both touched the very bottom of their hearts, so they must expressed it out, to the one they love, but will never get to see him again.

Tomorrow is his 1st death anniversary. Everybody is so ready to celebrate his life here. Jonghyun oppa, are you also do that up there?

[A song per day] At first I don’t like this song much, but the more I listen to it, the more I’m in love with it. Whenever a song hits right into my feelings, it will become my fav, and this one is an example

[A song per day]

Starting with watching a video a month ago, in which the group was in a talkshow, I gradually idolize them seriously from their gorgeous appearance, extraordinary talents, non-stop hardworking, to their great sense of humor throughout every TV show or interview they attended.

The more I admire them, the sadder I am when I think about the fact that JH is already gone and the reason he chose to end his life. He always put his smile on his face, nobody thought that he was suffering mental illness. If he had expressed his feeling to more people he is close with, including the members, if he had known the fans would support him no matter what he was doing, the tragedy would haven't happened. 

And as I just become a fan, I regret that I didn't love them sooner. I want to attend their concert, seeing them 5 in real life, and witness how talent they are. Well, in future, I can if they hold a tour, but I won’t able to see them as a physically 5-membered group anymore.

Anw, death people can't be physically resurrected, so everybody has to accept the fact that they lost a precious person but beloved angel. In addition, I just wanna wish a few things: 1) “You did well, KJH", 2) hope JH can be endlessly happy in another world and continue to do his work without worries, 3) hope the remaining 4 can regain their smile again and help JH finish his ultimate goals, 4) wish everybody support them no matter what they do, they deserve to be happy & successful after many things happened, and to celebrate their 10th anniversary, and 5) SM please build a permanent JH memorial, I don't want it disappear, at least not before I actually visit in maybe less than a year later

The original (Korean) version of this song is their debut song on 5/22/2008 under the name “SHINee", and for nearly 10 years they have been successful and achieved a lot of things. No matter what, the debut song always the best to me, with lots of hidden meanings and a great milestone for anyone who are related. Enjoy.

My 2017 was generally terrible, so this song fits. Hope for less bitter 2018

You will always be 22 despite us being older. I just can’t believe that you’re already gone, far away from all of us now. However, you’re still in our heart, a girl who always smiled and be happy all the time we communicated. Thanks for being my close and reliable friend I’ve ever had. You will be missed. Rest in peace Anh Trang Nguyen.
