Through the Fate
“I guess I loved you too much.
I’ll regret it as much as I long to see you. If we’re destined to meet again
through the fate, those sad tears will remain deep in my heart.” –Lee
Seung Chul, Fate (OST. Phoenix ) [translated lyrics]
Sebelum memulai tulisan ini, saya
ingin membuat pengakuan bahwa beberapa tulisan ke depan mungkin akan banyak
membahas lagu-lagu lawas Korea Selatan. Yes,
lately I’ve been addicted to a Korean
television show on KBS channel called “Immortal Songs 2: Singing the Legend”.
Through this musical program, I’ve learned a lot about Korean music
history. On each episode, this show gathers some vocalists and
musicians to perform songs’ cover from a Korean music industry’s legend. There’s an episode that I watch which the legend
is Lee Seung Chul. He is the living
legend of Korean music industry, who
has so many hits songs from time to time. He’s now 46 years old, a mere
young age to be called as a legend, but
indeed he already has so many songs which lots enough to make him become a
living legend. Bahkan, episode spesial Lee Seung Chul dalam “Immortal Songs
2” ini dibagi ke dalam dua episode, dengan total dua belas lagu hits beliau
dibawakan dalam program acara ini.
Salah satu lagu yang merebut hati
saya adalah sebuah lagu berjudul “Fate”. Dalam program acara “Immortal Songs 2”
episode spesial Lee Seung Chul bagian kedua yang ditayangkan pada tanggal 22
Juni 2013 di channel KBS World, lagu ballad ini dibawakan oleh solois pria
Lee Jung sebagai penampilan pamungkas. Dan rupanya itu bukanlah pertama kalinya
lagu ini dibawakan dalam “Immortal Song 2”. Sebelumnya, solois wanita Ailee
pernah membawakan lagu ini dalam edisi spesial Yoon Il Sang yang mengudara pada
tanggal 30 Juni 2012. Yoon Il Sang sendiri tak lain tak bukan adalah songwriter, composer, dan produser ternama yang menciptakan lagu ini. “Fate” dirilis
pada tahun 2004, sebagai soundtrack
untuk serial drama populer berjudul “Phoenix ”.
Sebagai sebuah lagu soundtrack, lirik
lagu “Fate” sangat menggambarkan jalan cerita serial dramanya.

Serial drama “
Meledaknya popularitas serial “Phoenix ” di Korea Selatan
membuat lagu soundtrack-nya pun
menuai popularitas luar biasa, apalagi “Fate” dibawakan oleh Lee Seung Chul. Indeed, it’s a great and everlasting soundtrack song. Di antara sekian
banyak versi yang ada, saya paling menyukai versi original yang dibawakan oleh
Lee Seung Chul, setelah itu versi cover
yang ditampilkan oleh Ailee, dan terakhir versi cover yang dipertunjukkan oleh Lee Jung. Well, all the covers are so
well, because the original song is
already so beautiful, but I don’t
know, I just favor the original one
more than any covers so far. “Fate” adalah tipikal lagu cinta yang ear-catchy dan everlasting. Tipe lagu yang tidak akan pernah lekang oleh waktu dan
akan selalu dapat ditemukan versi cover-nya
setiap tahun.
“I guess you just couldn’t love
me. Now all I can do is only watch over you from afar. If we meet again in this
lifetime while I still love you, I’ll cry painful tears because I can’t hold it
back.” –Lee Seung Chul, Fate
(OST. Phoenix )
