Sarang

Sarang is the Korean word for love.

Two days ago, I finally finished the last season of love in the Korean series Endless Love: Spring Waltz. I can no longer pick a favorite season after Autumn, Winter, Summer and Spring. Like real love, each series is beautiful in its own. The word beautiful is even an understatement. They're all different yet chincha yeppuda (really beautiful).

Autumn ended with a mark of tragedy. Winter ended with glint of hope. Summer ended with a beautiful assurance. Spring... well, spring ended with a mark of eternity. Love. Forgiveness. Hope.

As if the ending of Spring Waltz wasn't enough to make me feel in love, I found a video that has clips not found in the series. It's a video showing what happened after Spring Waltz ended; how the characters lived their life. In short, it's the epilogue of the epilogue.

Someday, I will waltz in spring.

Very Much In Love


Yiruma must have been very much in love when he wrote his compositions. And he must love his wife so much. For years, Yiruma was so elusive online. I've been looking for his website but to no avail... that is until today. I clicked a link to his site and was almost disappointed that no Error Page greeted me! This is what greeted me and what would greet you when you visit his site: ......................

Apparently, the site is still under construction due to unorganized pages but still it's one of the most beautiful pages I've come across.



I dislike it when a smile tries to escape out of the corner of my mouth when there are people around me. But sometimes it can't be helped not to smile when you remember something tender and lovely as Spring Waltz. Or hear something beautiful like winds that chime. Or wordless music that makes you clutch your heart.
