We sought to find out the origin of this beautiful song that Kim Hyun Joong sang to us so superbly during his last concert on February 27.
This melody told us something and for good reason, Kim Hyun Joong sang it in an episode of Boys Over Flowers series.
This track has long been performed by other artists and heard a lot on the Dream High series .
It dates from 1995 and was originally part of the first album of a South Korean group called PANIC.

Waiting (Eng)
While I waited for you I thought for myself
You left and now it hurts so much
That you’re crying on the way back to me
I looked at you and suddenly thought
One day when the sky lights up
Just like the day you left, you will come to me
You in front of me
Can I see you again?
I am no longer in your eyes
The remnants of familiar gestures and your smile make me cry.
You will come back to me
Don’t hesitate to come into my arms if your heart calls again
I’ll hold you like I used to.
I looked at you, and I suddenly hoped
One day when the sky lights up, you’ll come back to me like when you left me.
You in front of me
Can I see you again?
I am no longer in your eyes
The remnants of familiar gestures and your smile make me cry.
You will come back to me
Don’t hesitate to come into my arms if your heart calls again
I’ll hold you like I used to.

We can’t help but think once again that every moment of this concert was really carefully thought out and well chosen.
Each of the songs performed by Kim Hyun Joong carried with it a declaration of love like most of his usual songs, but this time, and more than usual, missives of hope and comfort.
Here is a little montage that we especially dedicate to those fans who have felt sad and disappointed for a week.
Loving and admiring a person does not mean keeping them locked up in your heart like in a cage.
Loving and admiring a person is accepting to let them live their life and not the one you dreamed of for them.
Spring is coming soon and love is still there, do you hear it?
Peaceful week everyone!
