You start off by saying you can't read the title because it's in Korean, but after the first verse of the song, you wipe away your tears. After all, I feel that music is a universal language. Thank you for reacting to Forestella.
This song is the OST of the drama,and it is a sad song about the feelings of the empress in the scene where the last empress of korea is brutally murdered by japan,
A sad horrible time in their history. The Japanese had occupied Korea and they tortured and killed the last empress. Somewhere at some time I have seen the lyrics in English and it seems to be the musings of a soldier just before dawn. I remember the line when I'm gone please tell them that even my misery was joy... What a beautiful song this is and I'm crying so hard right now. As always thank you so much for bringing this
Hello, thanks for reaction. This song is actually popular and other singers covered before. So someone actually translated lyrics into English. I am a little lazy to do it myself .. So I copy and paste here. If anyone wants to know what lyrics is.. Undermeath the cold moonlight If I can see my shadow lying there shall I just tell you how I feel inside all thet is in my heart~ If the wind may blow on my heart, telling me again that I'm alone should I just give out a sigh and ask myself why do I have to live myself though I may be sad I've got to live because I feel so sad I must go on~ I know that I will understand when I'm gone why I just had to live my life here in this world~ you were the only one for me~ though sorrow of my heart you loved me so~ please tell me so (전주) like the evening light so falls If all my memories just fade away will I hold on to joy that's in my heart oh,days of long a go~ wonder if the star in the sky he know how I feel,my loneliness maybe that is why he is there withme he just there all through the night though I may be sad I've got to live because I feel so sad I must go on~ I know that I will understand when I'm gone why I just had to live~ my life here in this world~ you were the only one for me~though sorrow of my heart you loved me so~oh, I hope some day you were the one to cry for~me that made me full of joy though I was sad~my love
Gracias por tu reacción, aún sin entender el idioma transmiten tanto sentimientos con solo su voz, la música y excelente interpretación amo a Forestella saludos desde México
This song is an OST when Japan invaded the Korean palace during the Joseon Dynasty, killed the queen, and burned it freely. Cho Soo-mi sang it, but if you look it up, there is also a video that Cho Soo-mi sang in the drama music video. I don't know the language, but I think what this song means was conveyed. Thank you.I enjoyed the video.
Thank you for your reaction. Their voices are really great. Their harmonies are really beautiful. They are lovely, amazing, and wonderful. Thank you very much.
hello gio. thanks for the reaction. i've seen the title of this song translated as "if i leave." i haven't ever seen english lyrics for this, but i've read it in multiple places that this is indeed a folk song that tells the story of the assassination of the last empress of korea. so forestella really hit the emotions of the song perfectly in their performance!
I think you confused this song with Birds Birds Blue Birds which is a folk song indeed. This was OST from KBS drama; the Last Empress and original singer was Jo SuMi, Korean legendary soprano.
About 100 years ago, there was an incident in which Japan invaded Korea, many Koreans were killed, and even the queen was killed by the Japanese sword. It's a Korean drama about his sad fate, which is dying with the country.
The lyrics of this song describe the deep sadness of Korean history so well that many Koreans cry when they listen to this song. The name of the last queen of Joseon, the main character of this song, is Empress Myeongseong. She was an intelligent queen who served Joseon. She became an obstacle to Japan's attempt to invade Joseon, and because of that, Japan mercilessly raped and tortured her to death on October 8, 1895. Not only that, The Japanese soldiers moved the body of the queen of a country to a nearby forest, placed it on a pyre and burned it, and even lied that Empress Myeongseong was killed by her own people of Joseon. A music video was produced for this song, and I remember crying several times while watching this music video when I was young. I think you will be able to feel and understand this song more deeply when you listen to it along with the music video. Thank you for choosing this song.
After start to listening to Forestella a while ago I couldn’t help myself but to fall in love with korean songs! So many beautiful songs they have there! And this one is so meaningful and emotional (yeah! I had to go to find out the lyrics and the translation at the first time I listened to it because it is so beautiful) Thanks Gio for this reaction! ❤❤❤❤
This song is about the queen of the last king of Korea It's a sad historical event that ends with the Japanese killing. When Japan invades and bullies Korea, the queen kills because she gets in the way. So this song is a song that expresses the thoughts and feelings of the queen when she is alive. The queen's name is Empress Myeongseong.

The title is wrong. Not I am going. It is "If I leave". Watch this first. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rEREXwJ2P9Q.html This song is the OST of the Korean historical drama, "Empress Myeongseong(명성황후)". If you know the true story of the drama, you can have a deep feeling for this song.
The reason why this song is sad is because of its history. The overall plot of the song is about the queen of the Republic of Korea being killed by Japanese assassins under the Japanese imperialist invasion. Korea and the people of the Republic of Korea, it's a national disgrace. It's a day and a history of shame. If you listen to the song after knowing this, you will understand why the song is so sad. It's not perfect because I wrote it down using a translator.
