Friday, August 22, 2014
“Then
on that day when you and I got into a big fight, you and my friend stopped
calling and began avoiding me. Then I finally realized that everything had gone
wrong. You and my friend had already turned into lovers.” –Kim Gun Mo, Wrongful Meeting [translated lyrics]

Program
acara musik “Immortal Songs 2: Singing the Legend” menghadirkan Kim Gun Mo
sebagai legenda pada edisi spesial yang terbagi menjadi dua bagian, yaitu pada
episode 41 dan 42. Pada edisi spesial tersebut, lagu-lagu hits yang telah dicetak oleh penyanyi legendaris Korea Selatan itu
dihidupkan kembali. Tentu saja, edisi spesial Kim Gun Mo tidak dapat
meninggalkan lagu yang satu ini, yaitu “Wrongful Meeting”, atau yang dikenal
juga dengan judul “The Wrong Encounter”. Lagu ini ditampilkan oleh maknae (anggota termuda, red.) dari boy group SHINee, Lee Taemin, pada
episode 42. Episode ini ditayangkan pada tanggal 17 Maret 2012 oleh stasiun
televisi KBS, serta mengudara di channel
KBS World pada tanggal 7 April 2012. “Wrongful Meeting” adalah mega hit Kim Gun Mo yang menandai puncak
karirnya di dunia musik Korea Selatan. Bahkan hingga saat ini, “Wrongful
Meeting” masih banyak digemari oleh masyarakat di sana.
“Wrongful Meeting” is a
song about someone who’s being betrayed by his lover and friend.
It all begins with a simple yet regretful
act; introduce his lover and his
friend to each other in a meeting on one day. Who knows that the simple meeting could turn out wrong? “Because I
trusted my friend as much as I trusted you, I introduced you to my friend
without thinking twice about it. After that meeting, we simply got together a
lot; having a good time and hanging out together. But at what point did such
encounters turn wrong? As I was slowly stepping into mysterious apprehension,
you were paying more attention to my friend than me, and slowly distancing me.”
It all begins with a simple meeting. Who knows that the trust in a friendship
could be broken so easily? Who knows
that the love in a relationship could be betrayed so easily? “Because I
trusted my friend as much as I loved you, I simply hung out naturally together
with you. But since when did our trust begin to crack? I did not know, I kept
having this awkward feeling. And the longer the time we spent hanging out like
that, I felt that you were slowly drifting away from me, and then I sensed it. You
were more interested in my friend than me.” Betrayal
is always hurt. And indeed, people whom we hold most dear are the people
who have the stongest ability to hurt us. What hurt more is the fact that we lose both love and friendship at the
same time. Moreover, we didn’t have any idea that it would come.
And it all began with a wrongful meeting.
“Then on that day when you and I got into a big fight, you and my friend
stopped calling and began avoiding me. Then I finally realized that everything
had gone wrong. You and my friend had already turned into lovers. I cried,
thinking how this could be happening, because I had to lose both my love and
friendship. Another friend of mine tapped me on my shoulder and told me to
forget it all, but I don’t think I can.”

pertama kali pada tahun 1995, “Wrongful Meeting” adalah title song dari album ketiga Kim Gun Mo, yang membawanya

Disk Awards berkat lagu ini, membuatnya sebagai pemenang dalam waktu dua
tahun berturut-turut, setelah tahun sebelumnya juga menyabet penghargaan yang
sama dengan lagu “Excuse”. Versi original lagu ini merupakan lagu electronic pop dengan energetic beats, yang mengukuhkan posisi
Kim sebagai music trend-setter pada
waktu itu. Untuk membawakan signature
song Kim ini, Taemin secara khusus menampilkan rapper dari girl group

This featuring is fabulous! Moreover, the modern dance electro-pop arrangement proves that “Wrongful Meeting”
is never wrong. Indeed, it’s an everlasting immortal song.
