Soundtracks for heartaches - K-ballads

안녕하세요!

Yes! I'm learning Korean! However I'm kind of an "extreme beginner" hihihihi But I will talk about this in another post.

I was planning this post for soooooo long, but I was really stuck. Sometimes I have a giant difficult to express myself in words. I like to write, despite not having a perfect English, but when I see it as a task or obligation, my brain got totally blank... But here I am trying my best. So let's go!

Originally, I didn't like k-ballads, maybe it's because I prefer faster and funnier songs. However, when I've started watching Korean dramas, without knowing I was mesmerized with this music style. Than I realised that most of my kpop idols usually sing k-ballads. One example is Severely (지독하게) from FT Island (에프티 아일랜드) - sorry FT Island's fans, for me this music IS a rock-ballad. When I first saw FT Island performing this music on stage, I unwittingly cried. I was a passionate performance that you can watch below. Its MV was beautiful too (link here). Wanna listen this music over and over again? Support the artist buying it on iTunes.




Before I enrage some lovers of ballads, here it is my five favorite (real) k-ballads with links:
