I Will Go To You Like The First Snow — Woohee (Goblin OST)
Back in time — Lyn (Moon Embracing the Sun OST)
Seojin had no true intention of weaving a story into the tracks chosen for his performance. The progression of the songs and the emotions and lyrical workings they contained was entirely unintentional. Something innate or subconscious congruent to his current dilemma involving matters of the heart. It told every bit of a roller coaster of emotions experienced by an individual perhaps too foolish to see the true answers right in front of him.
Coach Jeong fluttered over the titles with a quirk of a brow in the trainee’s direction. Whether from genuine concern or sheer curiosity, one could not be overly certain. ( He initially expected something with a bit more of a rock tone but Seojin rarely could be described as predictable. ) Seojin had been endlessly pleased with himself for getting his selection and run-throughs of the performance approved, even if it meant repeatedly singing songs rife with a sense of sorrow. More aptly — a broken heart.
Perhaps it was his own dramatic tendencies speaking, exaggerating the situation at hand into something it was not. Regardless, he would be pouring his heart and soul into the songs, no matter if his circumstances improved or not. Acting the part and properly conveying the lyrics was a rather important skill for any singer to have, after all. Without it, he would be reduced to a technically nice voice with none of the impact.
He stepped onto the stage, a large gulp of water poured down his throat before he introduced himself. Clearly, it was not his first time addressing a crowd in this manner.
“Hello, my name is Park Seojin. I’m glad to see everyone who decided to come out here today. Without even meaning to... my setlist kinda has a theme. When you desperately long for someone and want them to come back into your life and stay there. I think this will hit anyone who has been feeling this way, and I hope my voice can provide you with comfort.” He was getting ahead of himself.
“The entire set will be from singers that I look up to and respect a lot. Hopefully, I’ll do them justice.” He shot the audience a smile before standing by the stool positioned in front of the microphone, his left hand wrapping around the stem.
A familiar drum beat and guitar rhythm filled the room and a few of the audience members let out a knowing ‘oo’ when they recognized the famous K.Will song. Unexpectedly, his expression changed throughout his singing, matching the feeling of the music and lyrics. Even the occasional gesture with his hand He became fully immersed, projecting every nuance as if it were he who had written them.
A stop between the first two songs and the next three did little to set him back into reality. His eyes remained downcast, collecting the words that tumbled at his feet. He waited until the tepid clapping stopped to proceed with his commentary.
“For the rest of the tracks— “ He cleared his throat and reached for the water bottle once more. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea to pick these. Everything just makes me think of you... “I will be singing OSTs from some dramas. I’m sure you all will know them well. Especially the last one. Feel free to sing along quietly if you know the words.” His eyes flicked upward, then scanned over the audience, shooting them another nod and smile — though far more subdued.
He sat this time, backing away from the microphone stand as the tender piano music began and he would sing out a few starting runs alongside it. Due to the fairly long introduction, Seojin took it upon himself to speak briefly. “Sunbaenims, I respect you.” It earned a handful of laughs and a moment of levity in between the sorrowful theme.
For a moment, he assumed he could set his heavy heart to the wayside but the relatable lyrics from Woohee’s emotional and touching I Will Go To You Like The First Snow proved enough to reel him back in. His throat tightened on the edge of the words, one or two of which he was forced to skip in a bid to compose himself. Park Seojin would be damned if he got choked up in public, in front of a crowd of strangers, no less.
I started to become greedy
I wanted to live with you, grow old with you
Hold your wrinkled hands
And say how warm my life was
The final line of the final song, perhaps, acted as a sort of reassurance to himself. He did not plan it, only viewing Back in Time to be a gentle and less vocally demanding tie up. “I will be okay.” Not a question, nor an uncertain statement. An affirmation that would come to pass.

ID: Zuko on the left and sokka on the right. From avatar, the last air bender from the waist up and aged up. They have their back turned to the viewer and are facing each other so only their profile is visible. They are looking lovingly into each other's eyes. sokka is resting his left arm on zukos shoulder, holding zukos jaw. His index fingers brushing underneath a cut up hair strand. zuko holds with his right hand on sokkas back. His left hand is placed over sokkas wrist, holding a bracelet made out of zukos cut off hair between his two fingers. End ID
