Spring "Bom"

"Spring, spring, spring, spring has come. With that scent of when we first met. The tree next to the bench that you sat on is still there. I thought I’d forget about it as time went by but. Even as I said that, I knew it wouldn’t happen." ( Roy Kim - Bom Bom Bom [translated lyrics])

Salah satu lagu pop Korea kesukaan saya adalah lagu yang dinyanyikan oleh Roy Kim ini. Roy Kim adalah pemenang acara pencarian bakat Mnet's Superstar K4 2012. Bom Bom Bom ditulis dan dikomposer sendiri oleh Roy Kim. Dirilis pada tanggal 22 April 2013, lagu ini dengan cepat merajai chart musik Korea Selatan. Lirik sederhana lagu ini sangat catchy (menarik) untuk didengar dan sesuai dengan musimnya, spring. 

Once again, spring, spring has come. After the winter of heartbreak without you had passed. I sit on this bench and reminisce like cherry blossoms blooming. There are times when feelings grow dull. But now I finally realize that even those times are part of love. Terkadang kita akan merasakan jemu untuk menyayangi seseorang. Namun ingatlah kenangan-kenangan yang telah dilalui. Maka kita akan menyadari bahwa jemu itu adalah bagian dari yang dinamakan cinta.

Behind every favorite song, there is an untold story. Bagi saya pribadi lagi ini bukan sekedar mendengarkan lagu bergenre romantika musim semi. Tetapi lebih dari itu, lagu ini membuat hati saya selalu berbunga-bunga karena mengingatkan saya akan memori cerita musim semi di Korea Selatan 2 tahun lalu :) .
