Koreana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We feel the beating of our hearts together
This is our time to rise above
We know the chance is here to live forever
For all time
Hand in Hand we stand
All across the land
A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can
Start to understand
Breaking down the walls
That come between us for all time
Arirang
Everytime we give it all
We feel the flame eternally inside us
Lift our hands up to the sky
The morning calm helps us to live in harmony
For all time
Hand in hand we stand
All across the land
We can make this world
A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can
Start to understand
Breaking down the walls
That come between us for all time
Arirang
Hand in hand we stand
All across the land
We can make this world
A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can
Start to understand
Breaking down the walls
That come between us for all time
Hand in hand (Breaking down the walls between us)
Hand in Hand (Breaking down the walls)
The song “Hand in Hand” by Koreana is a powerful and uplifting anthem about the power of unity and the potential for humanity to come together to create a better world. The opening verse describes a sense of empowerment and shared purpose, with the “fire in the sky” representing a sort of transcendental energy that is uniting people all over the world. The chorus insists that hand in hand, across all boundaries of nation, race or culture, people can create a better world, “breaking down the walls that come between us for all time.”
The song carries a strong message of hope, with the lyrics emphasizing the importance of living each day to the fullest and seizing the opportunity to create something more meaningful and enduring than our own individual lives. The repeated refrain of “for all time” throughout the lyrics reinforces the idea of transcending our own mortality and creating something that will last far beyond our individual lives.
Overall, “Hand in Hand” is a powerful, uplifting anthem of hope and unity, exhorting people around the world to come together and create a better future for all. It’s a song with a timeless appeal and a message that is just as relevant today as when it was first released.

코리아나가 입은 의상을 조금 설명하자면
조르지오 아르마니가 디자인 해줬습니다. 디자인의 배경이 특이한데
디자이너의 감각이 얼마나 뛰어난지 알 수 있습니다.
원래 코리아나는 화려한 색감의 의상을 입으려고 했었는데. 조르지오 아르마니는 화려한 색상을 하면 안된다고 반박했다 합니다.
수많은 사람과 색상이 주변에 펼쳐질것인데
그 안에 똑같이 있어서는 안된다.
오히려 화려한 색상안에서 블랙과 화이트로 간결하게 나가야만 더욱 주목 받을 수 있다고
코리아나에게 설득 했다고 합니다.
대단한 안목입니다.

서울올림픽은 그냥 올림픽의 의미 그 자체였다고 생각해요
길고 길었던 냉전시대의 끝을 알리며 세계의 평화를 선언
하는 가장 큰 축제였었죠. 1980년 모스크바 올림픽에는
미국과 서구권, 대다수의 자유진영의 국가들이 불참하였고
1984년 로스앤젤레스 대회에서는 반대로 소련과 공산진영
국가들이 보이콧을 해 반쪽짜리 올림픽으로 끝마친 바로
다음의 올림픽에서 모스크바 올림픽 마스코트 미샤와
로스앤젤레스 올림픽 마스코트 샘 그리고 호돌이가 함께
손을 잡고 춤추는 장면은 정말 온 몸에 전율이 흐를 수 밖에
없다고 생각해요.

@StFidjnr
Can you please put all ceremonies both opening and closing on the Olympic channel
@user-gf4io7os9p
I remember Moscow 1980, there were hundreds of people in the audience dressing in few colors and by turning back/down/left/right they made a photo. I remember mickey mouse blinking 😀🐀
@Alan-bn7gk
I love south korea opening. I think it really represents what asia continents looked like back then
@legendarysonichero13
Exatamente, 30 anos atrás!
Gostaria de rever no Music Monday a performance da Bjork na abertura dos Jogos Olímpicos de Atenas em 2004, e também do Seu Jorge na abertura dos jogos paralímpicos de 2016.
@HarryHayfield
This is the song by which all Olympic theme songs should be judged on. Not only did I watch it live in 1988 (at about 5.00am BST) but when it was shown in an episode of Pingu some three years later I was able to recite every single word, without mistake, having only heard the song before once.
@user-lr4um7vy2u
이 노래가 더 감동적인 이유는 이념분쟁으로 인한 전쟁이 일어났던 나라에서 냉전시대의 끝을 알리는 노래를 불렀기 때문...
@user-lv1wg2ky1y
