Kim Hyun Joong: Paradise or how to make a beautiful homemade video clip with the means at hand ..

Here is the music video that Kim Hyun Joong and his team promised us last week.

We admit we were a little scared for the end result when we watched the shoot, but with simple means they achieved in a truly amazing way, something hauntingly beautiful.

“Paradise” is a beautiful and powerful song.
The 12,000 views in less than an hour (200 views per minute!) prove it to us.

Here’s what Kim Hyun Joong told us about this melody in 2018

(…)
The song PARADISE tells about our dreams that we could not achieve because we lead too busy lives.
Yeah, we all have our dreams of ‘paradise’, things we weren’t able to achieve in our tired and busy social lives.

Nowadays  people are busy and they aren’t able to achieve their small dreams. They make a “bucket list” of those dreams they hold dear. 

So, at least in our dreams, we can chase after those things.
Let’s not abandon our dreams. Even if we can’t achieve them now, we will one day, get there and go to PARADISE. This is the message.

Sometimes when I fall asleep after a busy day,  I say to myself: “I’m going to dream tonight” or “This is my paradise” …

 This is the message. of Paradise song.

here the beautiful lyrics of this title.
Sorry, Google translation may not be very faithful to the original text – but it does help us understand the meaning of the words.

At the same time on the same day
In the life of crime (?)
My erased dream I sing without forgetting
Why do you and I live
Like a heartless doll
Step by step, step by step
Somewhere at the end of this road

One day, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday,

I’ll walk, to get closer to you
Someday, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday,
I’ll walk to moonlight, to get close to you

Shining in the dark night
Like the moon shining
I promise under the sky I’ll sing for you
Step by step, step by step
Somewhere at the end of this road

One day, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday, I’ll walk
, to get closer to you
Someday, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday,
I’ll walk to moonlight, to get close to you

 

VELA

 

Can you hear me in your ear
This whispering song

 

One day, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday,

I’ll walk, to get closer to you
Someday, I’ll fly to paradise and spring of love Someday,
I’ll walk to moonlight, to get close to you
