It’s also the first Korean song which topped the weekly chart in Japan.”
He disclosed, “Senior Cho Yong-pil only released the Japanese version, he didn’t do promotional activities. I thought that not many people could know the song. It’s such a shame to enjoy it alone. So I wanted to sing it.”
Kim Jaejoong added, “I asked senior Cho Yong-pil via phone call. He asked me how I would sing it. So I recorded a guide version and sent it to him. He said it was good and we decided to have a meal together. I want to sing it well in the concert and have a meal with him after coming back to Korea.” Read More →
