Lim Young-woong's 'Father' Shatters 15 Million Views: Embodying Deep Yearning
Singer Lim Young-woong's music video for 'Father', which was unveiled on his official YouTube channel last month, is drawing heated attention as it surpassed 15 million views on May 17.
'Father', a track from Lim Young-woong's first studio album 'IM HERO', was written and composed by Woo Ji-min of 'Azalea' fame, with arrangements by Jang Jae-won.
From the intro, the clear piano sound pierces the heart, as if telling the story of a son's pure and innocent heart from the perspective of his younger self. The song captivates the listener as it poignantly enters the heart.
His longing for his father, emanating from every inch of his being, and his delicate emotional expression through his heartfelt voice, brings a deep resonance to those who listen. The song triggers responses such as, "I can't help but shed silent tears at the touching lyrics and melody that give me goosebumps in memory of my own father."
Meanwhile, Lim Young-woong will soon be meeting the public through his first solo reality variety show. Packed with scenes from his travels in Los Angeles, USA, 'My Little Hero' will be a five-part series capturing the many facets of Lim Young-woong, not just as an exceptional singer, but also as a human being. The first broadcast will air on KBS2 on the 27th at 9:25 PM, followed by episodes on June 3rd, June 10th, June 18th, and June 25th.
