Kim Hyun Joong had warned us, the new acoustic content of his Youtube channel which includes songs he likes, would put more contribution to his vocal skills.
This week we have a cover of a male voice, that of the singer KWAK Jin Eon.
Obviously we are not going to tell you that we knew KWAK JIN EON before that day, but we have documented ourselves, and here is what everyone can find about him:
Kwak Jin-eon is a South Korean singer and songwriter.
He won Superstar K6 in 2014.
He released his debut album, Go With Me on May 10, 2016

Regarding your proposals for the cover of songs by Kim Hyun Joong, since there are some who ask us how to proceed, he had mentioned the fact that it was necessary to leave him ideas in the comments of his Youtube channel.
We see appearing here and there lists of songs that everyone likes and we can understand, but we must reasonably ask ourselves if the songs we like are “adaptable” to acoustic versions, if they correspond to the voice of Kim Hyun Joong, and if he wants to take from all these lists, songs that he would like to make a personal version.
This is not to discourage anyone, but it reminds us a lot of the day in the summer of 2020 when we were offered to send in videos of locations near us to be used in the first A Bell of Blessing concert.
Suffice to say that in Seoul one must have been overwhelmed by miles of films that no one has exploited apart from the photos of a few lucky ones who were presented during the concert.
So, everyone does as they feel, but don’t be disappointed if your proposals are not “used”.
Lyrics of today’s song that we have translated as best as we could, because we only found a version in German and Korean
(… Mr. Papago is sometimes uncooperative when he is to give meaning to what it translates…)
Song: BOAST / Boast
Artist: Kwak Jin-eon
Release date: 2016
Album: Go With MeI’ve become more fearful these days, and I keep getting discouraged,
I met someone warmer than me,
Because I know how to count on you
[because you know my pain]And that there are many things I can say.
I want to be a warm person.
So that my arms can rebuild warmly.
[So that my arms are warmly comforted]If you are happy enough to share your love,
[When you become a person happy enough to share love]I’m going to brag about you first.
[I’ll be the first to brag]I want to be a warm person.
So that my arms can rebuild warmly.
If you are happy enough to share your love,
[When you become a person happy enough to share love]I’ll brag on you first
[I’ll be the first to brag]I will kiss you first.
[I will kiss you first]
