(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

기억에 머무르다 라는 표현을 피아노로 승화시킨 이루마.
정말 대단하다는 말 말고는 생각이 떠오르지 않는다.

딴지는 아니지만, 일단 곡을 만들어놓고 적당한 제목을 찾는 식의 패러다임이라면 이건희님의 해석이 틀렸던 것일지도요.ㅎㅎㅎ 기억에 머무르다..라는 개념을 선율화하는것.......... 그당시의 어떤 악상
그자체를 표현하여 선율화했는데 적당한 제목을 고민한 결과 ...기억에 머무르다를 떠올려 표제로 삼은 것.... 뭐 어떤 쪽이였을지 우린 모르죠..ㅎㅎㅎ

그건 그렇긴한데.... 만약에 곡을 만들어놓고 적당한 제목을찾는거라 치고 너무 세밀한거같음... 진심으로 "기억에 머무르다" 이거 하나만을 담기 위해 써내린 곡 같아요...

thật tuyệt. cả mv lẫn những nốt nhạc. đưa mình đến một vùng kí ức, cũ nhưng rất đẹp.

고등학교 졸업하고 20살에 친구들과 처음 오사카 여행 갔을때, 이 음악을 들으며 인파속 의자에 앉아서 거리를 지나가는 사람들을 지켜보던 그 순간 그 풍경은 죽을때까지 못 잊을거 같습니다

As someone who grew up cherishing both Yiruma and Spirited Away, this music really takes me somewhere special. I can only describe it with emotions in my eyes

I knew it was familiar! Ah spirited away has such beautiful music

딱 거의 10년 전 나 고등학교 생활할 때 많이 들으며 위로 받았던 곡. 삶에 치여 살다가 정말 어렴풋이, 우연히, 생각나서 검색해서 들어와 들어보는데 여전히 좋으면서 고등학생의 나, 또 지금의 나의 감정이 뒤섞이면서 오묘한 감정이 드네요. 삶이란게 참 그래요.. 말로 표현을 못하겠어요. 삶이란게 이런거죠 뭐.....
