“Take
care, thank you, our those awkward goodbyes, I know that we’re breaking up.
From the hurting you, I turn around, in case you know that I’m hesitating, in
case you see me, in case you’re crying like me.” –Jung Joon Il, I’m Sorry (OST. Witch’s Romance) [translated
lyrics]

Vokalis sekaligus keyboardist dari band indie Korea Selatan, Mate, Jung Joon Il, merilis sebuah solo track untuk mengisi jajaran soundtrack serial drama “Witch’s Romance”, atau yang dikenal juga dengan judul “A Witch’s Love”. Jung membawakan lagu ballad yang bertajuk “I’m Sorry”. Lagu ini dirilis pada tanggal 9 Mei 2014 sebagai single “Witch’s Romance OST Part 2”. Mengandung makna tentang perpisahan, “I’m Sorry” mengiringi setiap adegan sedih dalam serial drama komedi romantis yang dibintangi oleh Uhm Jung Hwa dan Park Seo Joon tersebut. Pada tanggal 10 Juni 2014, lagu ini menjadi bagian dari album “Witch’s Romance OST”.
“I’m Sorry” is a song
about someone who feels somewhat desperation, sad,
and anger because they can’t make the one they love stays beside them. That they have to let that person go. That they have to be separated from that
person. That they have to turn their
back away, because seeing that person
hurt is too much to bear. “Take care, thank you, our those awkward
goodbyes, I know that we’re breaking up. From the hurting you, I turn around,
in case you know that I’m hesitating, in case you see me, in case you’re crying
like me.” It hurts so much even though
they already had a hunch before that this day would come; a day when they have to let that person go.
It hurts so much but they somehow believe
that they would meet that person again someday; that their fate haven’t ended yet. And when that day comes, they
swear to themselves that they would never let that person go ever again. “For
me, love is a dream that I can’t have, I know that this would happen in the
end. However, perhaps, if by any chance, we were happen to meet again, then I
would hold you and never let you go on that time.”
In the mixed feelings
of desperation, sad,
and anger, there’s still a linger feeling attached from the confession that was
being left unsaid. And so they feel
sorry because that untold love confession. And so they feel sorry as they keep wondering whether that person feels
the same way as them. “Do you feel the same way as I do? This empty confession
that won’t reach you, I’ll say it so that only I could hear; I will say that I
love you.” And so they feel sorry because
of their inability to do anything. “I’m sorry that this is me, that this is
all I am who can’t do anything. All those days that we were together as us, I
will just be hurt for that long.” And so
they feel sorry because eventually they can’t let go of that person. And so they feel sorry because they can do
nothing about it. And so they feel
sorry because eventually they can’t just forget the time they spent together.
And so they feel sorry because they’re
still waiting for that person; waiting
until they could confess to that person. “I’m sorry, that I can’t let you
go, that this is all and no more that I can do. All the dreams we had for that
long time, but I can’t just forget them like it’s all nothing, because I’m
still waiting for you. The confession that I couldn’t tell you back then, I’ll
do it better.”

“I’m Sorry” menjadi theme song bagi kisah cinta antara dua karakter utama dalam serial drama ini, Ban Ji Yeon (diperankan oleh Uhm Jung Hwa) dan Yoon Dong Ha (diperankan oleh Park Seo Joon), yang sempat mengalami pasang surut hingga mereka harus berpisah sesaat. Terutama, lagu ini mewakili perasaan Yoon Dong Ha yang sempat mengalami keterpurukan dan putus asa yang mendalam karena tak sanggup mempertahankan Ban Ji Yeon untuk tetap di sisinya. It’s a heartwrenchingly beautiful song with a sweet yet melancholic melody. It suited well with the series’ storyline, and of course, one of top-of-mind soundtracks.
