Vocalist Kan Jong Wook has come back with a new single, “Fool“!

Kang Jong Wook rose to fame through various OST songs for drama such as ‘May Queen‘, ‘Hooray for Love‘, ‘Royal Family‘, and ‘Gloria‘. He also had a duet with After School‘s Raina. Although people have just started to get to know him, Kan Jong Wook has actually debuted 10 years ago. On his career, he said, “The only thing that helped me stand back up after going over an uncountable number of obstacles and tunnels of unluckiness was music. I’m going to become a singer that will talk with my heart by putting my genuine feelings in the song.”

The album includes composers Yoon Ji Woong and J2, who were the moving forces behind huge names such as Shinwha, Jo Sung Mo, and Lyn. Kan Jong Wook calls himself a fool for letting his love get away, and his voice mixes with the acoustics to produce an emotional ballad. The single also includes other genre songs that he has never tried before.

Kan Jong Wook expressed, “It doesn’t matter if the stage is big or small. I know how precious the stage is, and I know how happy I am when I sing. My father told me not to get caught up in popularity, and told me to become a singer who can really sing. I want to show everyone a stage that will touch them.”

Didn't like his song for May Queen OST. Everytime I watch May Queen and his song being played at the background, how I wish they will select a better ballad for the drama...

[markthatcoin.livejournal.com]

Ugh I hate when that happens... Didn't watch May Queen but this reminds me of how long it took for the City Hunter "oh it's all right" song to grow on me lol

[tsuyoi-hikari.livejournal.com]

That City Hunter's song didn't grew on me AT ALL. I think I either mute the sound or wish it ended quickly everytime it being played in the drama. They should put Jonghyun's 'So Goodbye' or Kim Bo Kyung's 'Suddenly' all the time since the rest of the City Hunter OSTs are amazing aside of that song. :3

lol my sister and i sometimes text each other OH IT'S ALL RIIIIIIGHT, it was comical and didn't really work but it really stuck in my head so i somehow have a positive association with it (idk about Girl's Day "Cupid" though, hello hello shiny boy lol wtf)

haha actually I just google City Hunter OST and found that only certain of the songs really stood out for me lol. I particularly didn't enjoy Lovely Day too. XD;;
