Life is like a song

  Life is like a song

  In Yoon Hyun's fan café, which has already stopped registering new members, the fans who have been through Yoon Hyun's withdrawal storm and persisted are now proud to go wherever they go.

  As time goes by, it's another award season.

  The first to appear in the film category is the Grand Bell Award.

  "The Chase" finally received the honor it deserved at the Grand Bell Awards. Amidst various controversies and praise, "The Chase", which attracted nearly 6 million viewers, swept away the embarrassment of being a runner-up at the Baeksang Arts Awards, with Kim Yun-seok winning Best Actor, the film winning Best Film, and Roh Deok-jae winning Best Director.

  However, the most mentioned that night was indeed nominated for Best Newcomer Award but did not appear on the scene, Yoon Hyun.

  "Lastly, I want to say that Yoon Hyun-ki, come back. I'm still looking forward to the next opportunity to act with you!" These were the final words of Best Actor winner Kim Yun-seok's acceptance speech.

  "First of all, I must thank the actor Yoon Hyun for his portrayal. Without his vivid depiction, I wouldn't even have had the chance to bring this film from paper to screen. His performance convinced the producers and gave me the opportunity to shoot this movie. I look forward to having another chance to work with you next time, Yoon Hyun, come back!" This is how director Luo Hongzhen began his award-winning speech.

  With the support of the movie emperor and the best director, although he missed the best newcomer again, Yin Xian did not lose his last stronghold in the film circle.

  Then something shocking happened in the Korean music scene.

  Yoon Hyun, who was criticized by the entire Korean entertainment industry for announcing his semi-retirement, received a nomination and performance invitation from AmeriMusicAwards across the ocean.

  So, those two songs from last year were remembered by Koreans once again.

  What's even more embarrassing for the Korean entertainment industry is that PSY's nominations are quite heavy. His song "Gangnam Style", which shook the heavens, earned him a nomination for Best Pop/Rock Male Artist of the Year and International Artist of the Year.

  It's worth noting that the nominees alongside Yoon Hyun also include Michael Jackson... and such a big award as International Artist of the Year is enough to show off Yoon Hyun's outstanding performance over the past year.

  At the same time, as a rare Asian face who shone brightly at the Grammys, Yoon Hyun got to perform three songs. This is something that only a handful of people in AMA history have achieved, and they are all written into American music history.

  When LOEN posted on their official website that Yoon Hyun-sang would be attending the AMA Awards ceremony, the entire Korean entertainment industry fell silent.

  Yoon Hyun's trip to the US is getting more and more high-profile, the more painful it is for these people in the Korean entertainment industry.

  Finally, at the AMA awards ceremony, Yoon Hyun's successful won the International Artist of the Year award. Although he missed out on the Pop Singer Award, when Yoon Hyun led the entire audience of American fans, including well-known singers and stars, to sing along to "baby, baby, baby, oh~", and when those familiar Korean names jumped up and danced to the horse riding dance in a language they couldn't understand, those people who attacked Yoon Hyun for lacking self-awareness, having a glass heart, and not understanding respect for the entire entertainment industry had their faces burning with shame.

  Moreover, losing to the eternal pop king MJ in a competition among popular male singers is nothing to be ashamed of!

  While PSY performed the first song "Baby" live at AMA, which is no less influential than his debut single "Gangnam Style", the second one was naturally "Gangnam Style". And the third song he performed live directly pointed out his next step: You Korean entertainment circle don't look down on me? Then I won't play with you!

  The third song is Yoon Hyun-sang's "new work", a low-pitched melody scream.

  The song then entered the top three on Billboard the next day and began a two-month monopoly of the Billboard number one spot the following week.

  When Yoon Hyun returned to Korea from the international arrivals gate with Time magazine, which featured his own photo on the cover, he received a hero-like welcome from fans.

  On that day, at the airport, more than half of Yoon Hyun's over 10,000 fans rushed to Incheon, and the exit of the airport was slowly covered with a tender green color, looking far away like a sea of grass that had just sprouted in early spring.

  Full of vitality and endless scenery.

  Then time came to today.

  The last film awards ceremony of the year in South Korea, the Blue Dragon Awards, will be held today.

  Yoon Hyun also unsurprisingly received nominations for Best New Actor and Best Actor again.

  Yoon Hyun did not attend on-site like Daesang award previously.

  But watched at home.

  "Oppa, what are you still doing watching this?" IU said with a bad attitude while cleaning up the dinner table.

  "What's it to you?" Yun Xian said irritably.

  "Last time you watched the Da Zhong Award, you sulked for two days. As a result, I didn't dare to go home for two days. You still have the nerve to say that." IU revealed fiercely.

  "This... I promise to finish it today without complaining." Yoon Hyun felt a bit awkward. IU's attitude towards herself had been subtly changing since her debut, and Yoon Hyun vaguely sensed that something was off, but he wasn't quite sure and didn't dare think about it carefully, so now he was a little afraid of IU.

  "Whatever, OPPA... forget it." IU gave up on supervising Yoon Hyun.

  Soon, the awards ceremony moved on to the Best New Actor award.

  "IU, why do I get so nervous even though I know I won't get it?" Yoon Hyun said to IU who was sitting with him on the couch watching TV.

  "Because OPPA is filming seriously, I hope to be recognized too." IU thought for a moment and said sincerely.

  Seeing IU's somewhat downcast expression, Yoon Hyun knew she was thinking of her debut, reached out to rub her head and said: "It's okay, I'm here! I'll write a good song for you, so people will remember you."

  "OPPA just said it. It's been a long time since he said that. The song." IU felt wronged when she mentioned this, saying that she had lined up to ask Yoon Hyun for a song at his place, but why did he give the song to Kim Jong Kook sunbaenim so readily, while her own song was still nowhere to be found?

  “Uh...” Yoon Hyun felt a bit embarrassed. He wanted to write a good song for IU so badly. So no matter how he wrote it, he wasn't satisfied, and no matter how he wrote it, he felt like it wasn't qualified. Since IU's debut, Yoon Hyun had written almost 100 songs, basically writing at least one every day. And in this continuous practice, Yoon Hyun had already possessed the basic qualities of a musician...

  But there wasn't one song that he thought was worthy of IU.

  This is too confusing for him.

  IU actually knew that the pile of sketch papers in Yoon Hyun's bedroom, which was getting higher and higher, were all songs written by Yoon Hyun for herself. She had always been very moved, but... being moved couldn't fill her stomach after all... What she needed now was a song!

  "Oppa, if you really can't write it, then help me compose a melody for the song I wrote?" IU said suddenly.

  "What did you write? Can you write songs?" Yun Xian was somewhat surprised.

  "The lyrics are just some of my thoughts, written down like that." IU suddenly turned bright red, "Uh, actually I thought of it while reading a book."

  "Bring it here and let me see?" Yun Xian suddenly became very interested.

  "Oh." IU lowered her head and returned to her own room. After a while, she took out a piece of paper torn from her notebook.

  It's obvious at a glance that it has been revised many times.

  "Go to my room and get my sketchbook and notebook." Yin Xian furrowed his brow, this messy self couldn't even tell what it was.

  IU went to Yoon Hyun's house and brought out the sketchbook and pen that Yoon Hyun used when writing songs.

  Yoon Hyun begins to transcribe IU's song lyrics.

  "Staring at the clock watching those whispering secrets"

  The most yearned-for stories in my heart

  It doesn't matter if I change my appearance

  It doesn't matter if someone urges me

  In the future timeline I saw

  You and I together

  You who like playing with me

  But you know what?

  What's my name?

  In the blink of an eye, I grew up

  Will you remember me?

  What a magical child

  I really like seeing your face through my fingers

  But afraid of inner secrets being exposed through the gaps between fingers

  Feeling somewhat uncomfortable with chest tightness

  Wait for me

  You and I can't be together yet

  Although I wish time would pass more quickly

  In the future world you live in

  There will definitely be my name

  Run with your fingertips when you pluck the strings

  Walk a little faster

  Close your eyes and cast magic

  We're just one step away from meeting each other

  Although I don't know on what day or at what time

  In the future where you exist

  If you see me wandering around

  So I can recognize you

  "Call My Name"
