(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

Very poetic :) and you have very good writing skill. Thumb up!
Wow. Your story is so heart- warming and dramatic :) so lovely!
I enjoyed your story really well.
I could somewhat understand your story because I also play the piano specially by yiruma.
Yiruma music makes one happy and describe every little things a lot more beautifully.
Playing yiruma music, I imagine the time when I trallved the south Coast in Korea(we called it Nam Hae) and the land I' ve walked in there. That really makes me happy.
And This feeling can easily arised by playing piano.
This is why I love piano :)
Thanks for having talked your beautiful story!
And I hope you two will be loved from then and ever.

memories in my eyes
memories in every one eyes
memories that will make some one feel the pain or happiness
memories that some day will end in sadness to other
memories of some one who care for you and gave you love
but at the end memories of that someone who leave you
and the reality is that you will never see that someone again
and you don't have chance to say you are glad you met that someone, became part of your life
wish every one memories will became the best to someone else.
Ron Riggs
She will be in my heart forever.

Every time I listen to this song (and any other song from Yiruma) I feel everything, happiness, sadness.. I wanna cry and laugh at the same time and I am proud that I am not like all the others in my class with all their modern music (which I am listening too) but I know what real music is like and I know that they will never realize it which is making me a little sad :(

I literally see memories running through my eyes, because of the talent Yiruma shows us in this song. All his songs makes my soul feel free while others are out there liking rap and metal. I love songs of iruma and I feel like a different person... I'm actually calm for once. C:
