(2) Born on February 15, 1978 in Seoul, South Korea, pianist Yiruma (real name: I Ru-ma) has released a string of successful albums in the 2000s and managed to land a number one hit with his composition "River Flows in You." Additionally, he was the first Korean artist to be invited to perform at the 2002 MIDEM in Cannes, France. Yiruma began playing the piano at the age of five and then moved to London in 1988 to study at the Purcell School of Music, where he graduated in July 1997. In June 2000, he completed a composition major at King's College London, and from 2001 onward he released a number of albums that can be categorized somewhere between the "contemporary classical" and "new age" genres. His 2001 album First Love contained the composition "River Flows in You," which subsequently became a number one hit in several countries, especially when it was briefly considered to be included on the soundtrack of the movie Twilight. Even though the producers ultimately did not use the piece, a series of YouTube videos appeared online where Yiruma's cut was put into the corresponding scene, boosting the track's popularity and resulting in it being remixed by German DJ Alex Christensen in 2010. Yiruma also composed the scores for the movie Oasis (directed by Lee Chang-dong) and the stop-motion animated film Doggy Poo (directed by Kwon Oh-sung). ~ Christian Genzel, Rovi

오빠 잘 지내고 있지? 요즘은 일주일에 한번 씩 편지를 쓰게 되네. 일 시작하고 나니 시간이 정말 빨리 간다. 어떻게 지내고 있어? 난 매일 당신이 빨리 돌아와서 내 옆에 있어줬으면 좋겠단 생각으로 버티고 있어. 화이트데이엔 당신 생각하다가 보고싶어서 펑펑 울었어. 핸드폰으로 음악을 크게 틀어놓고, 가끔 그 핸드폰에 대고 말을 하고....오빠가 듣고 있을것 같아서, 그렇게라도 내 마음 보여주고 싶어서 종종 그렇게 해.
당신이 견뎌야했던 상황은 나보다 훨씬 거칠고 힘들었단거, 자세히는 몰라도 대강은 느낄 수 있어. 그 상처와 트라우마 우리 서로 보듬으며 살면 되. 그러니까 꼭, 빨리 다시 돌아와줘. 당신이 내가 처음 만났던, 그 때 그 장난기 많던 의사의 모습이 아니라도 괜찮아. 상처가 많아도 괜찮아. 어떤 치료를 받건 내 옆에서 나와 함께해.
하루빨리 이 모든 상황이 끝나고 나도 당신도 안전해졌으면 좋겠어.
그래서 남들처럼 평범하고 평화롭게 사랑하며 살아가고 싶어.
그리고 나 뿐만 아니라 모든이들이 행복하고 인간다운 삶을 살아갔으면 좋겠어.
최근 일어나는 전쟁도 그렇고, 왜 인간들은 평화로운 공존 대신 늘 경쟁과 탐욕의 길을 선택하는걸까. 그게 결과적으로 자기자신과 상대방 모두를 망가뜨리는 일이 된다는 걸 왜 모를까. 상대방을 돕고 살리는 일이, 결국 이 세상을 돌고돌아 자신을 돕고 살리게 된다는걸 더 많은 사람들이 깨닫게 됐으면 좋겠어. 모두의 행복을 위해서라도 현명한 사람들이 더 많아지길 바라.
우리가 보지 못 했던 지난 몇 년간 서로에게 많은 일이 있었단거 알아. 내가 사랑하는 당신도, 나도, 우리 둘 다 서로가 기억하는 처음의 모습이 아닐 수 있단것도 알아. 그치만 어떤 모습이 되어있건 변함없는 당신 영혼을 난 알아. 최대한 빨리 돌아와줘. 기다리고 있어. 너무너무 보고싶어. 비싼 여행이 아니어도 되니까 그냥 함께 있을 수 있으면 좋겠어. 날 행복하게 해주고 싶다면 당신이 꼭 내 옆에 있어야해. 당신과 함께 해야만 나 행복해질 수 있을거 같아. 다시 함께 할 그 날까지 아프지말고 다치지말고, 밥 잘 챙겨먹고, 술도 줄여야해요. 사랑해♡

이루마의 reminiscent 라는 곡이랑 음이 비슷한것 같아요..! 약간 더 어두운 느낌도 나고 색다르게 좋네요 ㅎㅎ
