F4 sings for a special edition OST
by javabeans
And the new tunes keep coming! The production of Boys Before Flowers has put out another supplemental soundtrack, which they’re calling an “F4 Special Edition” OST.
Not only does this mini-album contain new songs, there are plans for more to come — each member of F4 (that’s Lee Min-ho, Kim Hyun-joong, Kim Bum, and Kim Joon — like they require introduction, ha) has recorded a track. They aren’t original songs, though; each actor personally chose a song to cover.
The first to be unveiled is Kim Hyun-joong’s remake of “행복이란” (Thing Called Happiness), posted below, which is a song that enjoyed a lot of popularity when it was first released in the ’70s. It was sung by Jo Kyung-soo, the singer father of actor Jo Seung-woo (Go Go 70).
SONG OF THE DAY
Kim Hyun-joong – “행복이란” (Thing Called Happiness) from the Boys Before Flowers OST 2.5 Special Edition. [ Download ]
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
No wonder these boys are so tired; I don’t know where they found the time, but the songs were recorded in secret and were just revealed today.
From a marketing standpoint, this is probably smart in terms of drumming up maximum excitement as the drama heads to its grand finish. (Boys Before Flowers is still generating lots of press, but to me it seems as though the insane frenzy of the early days has muted in recent weeks.)
Still, I can’t help wishing more of these newer selections had been gradually introduced earlier in the series, because the drama was so overshadowed in the first half with its tired song rotation and could have greatly used an infusion of fresh tunes.
This’ll be Kim Hyun-joong’s second cover song for Boys Before Flowers; he first chose Lee Juck’s Panic song to play in Episode 15. Kim says that both are songs he’s always enjoyed, which makes me wonder if he may have slightly different music preferences than the stuff he puts out with his boy-band group SS501. But that’s okay, ’cause I like his taste. On top of that, Kim contributed an acoustic version of “Because I’m Dumb” to the soundtrack.
The rest of the songs by the other F4 boys will be released in the near future.

@3 yoonah: nap? i think they need a hibernation period more like it! :)
i personally like anything with J and Jisun in it. but in t-max's wish you're my love, J was just a background singer........and that really really sucks.
sorry to digress but i really think que sera sera songs beat the rest hands down. :P

Oooh! Not bad!!!
Hyun Joong's "Song preference different from band's preference" kinds of reminds me one manga and one movie... Heh. But seriously, that guy CAN and somehow has the same song preference as me... Well, a part of it anyway.
I like Soothing songs, Song that make sense and aren't too sexual and stuff... Oh, I LOVE JAZZ and the occasional song in the rock and pop genre.
I HATE songs that don't make sense... (Case in point: The stupid chinese song where the two words '对呀' (dui ya) are repeated over and over again... I mean... EXCUSE ME????)

Eh, come to think of it... Korean songs are quite nice. (And I don't even know what in the world thay are singing / the lyrics mean.) Actually, I've found out that I like songs that are not in English more. I don't know why. They just sound more... romantic? With more feeling? I don't know.
Maybe, as 'Granmere' in 'The Princess Diaries' says, : English is so 'vulgar'!
Don't know. *Shrug*

I love this cover by KHJ.He and Goo Hye Sun could make a perfect duet together.They have the same type of voice (very sweet and soothing) and sometimes their looks complement each other. They both have flawless complexion. Hope they will consider having GHS also plus a duet with KHJ similar to a Ji Sun /Alex duet.

@62 Ihen - BOF is already divided up into "seasons" 1 and 2. The first 12 episodes represented season 1 (when they're all in high school) and the rest is season 2 (F4 has graduated HS and are in their 1st year of university). They just combined the 2 seasons into 1 season without the year-long wait inbetween. If you notice in the japanese version, it's split up the same way in terms of timeline, but they actually divided it into 2 separate seasons. Hope this helps! :o)
This has nothing to do with the BOF OST 2.5.... but with drama soundtrack music in general... now everytime i hear a saxophone version of a theme song or whatever... i just imagine yi-jung playing it HAHA.. i can't help it.
SoElmate... fighting! =P

@68 sadly, the acoustic version of because i'm stupid isn't released yet :( i read somewhere..i can't remember..that it's going to be on his solo single. apparently, DSP entertainment is going to give all of the SS501 members the opportunity to release solo singles to showcase each of the members voices or something..and the article said that KHJ's version of because i'm stupid will be on his single.
hope that helped. when i find the article again i'll post it on here :)

i know that hyun joong can sing, also kim hyungjoon from t-max
but kim bum and lee minho is a surprise.
i think the video of minho before debut didn't sound too bad...he has a low tone. kim bum....for all i care can sounds like a male version of sohee and i would still adore him.
regardless, i think they're really smart to take advantage of this. a bunch of fangirls are all on it.
i have a feeling, it's going to end up like anotther Goong era...haven't seen a craze over a movie since then.
BOF does not fail to deliver the entertainment and sadly, it cost the actress and actors so much of their energy and its looks like they're getting burnt out. well only a few more to go. happy ending or not, i think this is one of those shows to remember. rewatch rewatch rewatch haha, just like goong.

I love KHJ's voice and the song's catchy melody. Makes me feel the happiness that is mentioned in the title. ( He IS a better singer than an actor,eh!)
How i wish I could also understand the lyrics so I would really love it. LOL. I cant wait for F3's cover songs.

hyun joong did say he likes rock...and his dream was to be in a rock band and his company had told him that he would be making rock music...but he ended up being an idol star making pop music instead. but his dream is still to do rock music.
sometimes i wonder if he feels irritated that he has to make music that is not his style.

Wow!
i don't know what to say, but these guys are stars in the eyes of the South Pacific.
i'm a samoan which you probably wouldn't know my island because its a dot on the world map. i really liked the boys before flowers and there music. its kinda of funny when you listen to music that you don't understand, but the main attraction is its rhythm. i'm a fan of Korean movies, and thanks to the first movie i've watched "Stairway to heaven" im stuck with being excited into seeing more.
P.S.
