Just fancy that! Today’s two albums I’d like to recommend has this rain theme to it. Firstly, HyeJin’s debut album — Rain or Shine is a compilation of English and Korean jazz songs. My favourite tracks: Track 2 (For the Sunday afternoons I occasionally spend at City Mall) and Track 5 (Perfect bedtime song).
Another album worth listening is the soundtrack for the Korean film, A Good Rain Knows When To Come / Season of Good Rain which is a good forty minutes of instrumental guitar perfect for a weekend of relaxation. Have the album on loop and enjoy the moment. Listen here.
A quick film summary according to Koreatimes.co.kr: The film is set in Qingdao, China and its title was inspired by a stanza in a poem by Tang Dynasty writer Dubo — A good rain knows when to come. Directed by Hur Jin-ho; Starring Jung Woo-sung and Gao Yuanyuan.
Jung stars as a traveling architect who runs into a woman (Gao) he knew while studying abroad in the United States. The two realize that the friendship they shared back then had actually been love and rekindle the romance.
