Nanahara I love this album so much!!! Every song is like an beautiful painted picture with soundscapes and feelings. You have to discover with heart and ear. Favorite track: Snowy Eye.
Wisdoms End

Wisdoms End I like how I just don´t know anything about the Korean language but still enjoy this so much.
Uplifting, upbeat, but still melancholic post-rock with a nice flow through the whole album which makes it so easy and nice to listen to it as a whole thing.
Normally I don´t really like vocals in post-rock arrangements, but the voice simply belongs on this record.

BD I'm really surprised this album isn't in more collections. It's big and loud, soft and gentle, harmonious and melodic. It's the full post rock package. I'm not one for lyrics in post rock generally but this works well, possibly because it's in Korean so I can't understand it. Favorite track: Cosmos.

TONY ZAGORAIOS An amazing record from start to finish!! These guys are blending some serious post rock influences, under their own melancholic approach. I love the Korean language vocals and although I don’t understand nothing, it probably make it sound more magical. A truly poetic album!!

Weeble Wobble I barely listen to post rock this days (most albums I sample are lame), but this is great! Gets better with each listen and is definitely one of my absolute favorite albums.

검은, 동그란 호수 가에 피어있는 하얀 눈물방울 어디선가 아련하게 멈춰버린 시간 속에 남아 있는 흩날리는 관념 텅 빈, 그러나 가득 찬 * English A dark, round lake At its shores bloom white teardrops somewhere, indiscernibly Time has stopped Remaining within it are scattered ideas Empty yet full * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Crimson Sky 07:27
늘 생각해 붉게 물든 하늘 넘어 닿을 수 없는 곳으로 날아가는 모습을 * English I always think My flying form passes over the red-dyed sky to a place who can’t be touched * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Cosmos 08:36
눈을 감으면 떠올라 흐릿한 기억 떠난 듯 머문 영원의 빛으로 타올라 흩어진 시간 머문 듯 떠난 * English They come to me when I close my eyes – hazy memories linger as if they will leave It blazes with the light of eternity – scattered time leaves as if it will linger * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Snowy Eye 08:02
너, 내리는 밤이면 반기는 꿈이 내게 나, 스며든 빛이면 멀어진 달이 네게 언젠가 바라본 아련히 흩날리던 여전히 흐르던 어느새 다가온 너, 바래진 하늘엔 희미한 꽃이 네게 나, 지워진 거리엔 선명한 별이 내게 * English When night descends, you give to me a welcoming dream When the light trickles in, I give to you the moon that grows distant We always gazed at it, fluttering about faintly and flowing by as always and approaching imperceptibly You gave to yourself the faint flower in the faded sky I gave to myself the clear star on the disappearing path * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Wings 05:15
자유롭게 날아오르는 꿈들은 미래의 희망을 펼쳐가네 날개를 펼쳐 하늘을 날아 바람이 불어 오는 곳으로 * English Dreams soar freely They bring the hope of the future Spread your wings and fly in the sky The wind will carry you to wherever you’re going * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Forgotten 07:13
두 눈을 감았지 모두 보고 있는 앞에서 긴 한숨과 함께 떠난 영원으로의 길 그토록 간절하고 간절했던 외침 삶보다 더 소중한 가치를 위하여 활활 타올랐지 모두 보고 있는 앞에서 그 눈물과 함께 떠난 영원으로의 길 어둡고 어두운 길을 밝히려 스스로 세상의 등불이 되었지 거짓과 위선으로 가득 찬 이곳에 그저 눈과 귀를 막고 살아가는 사람들 시간이 흐르고 흘러도 변한 것은 아무 것도 없었지 그렇게 외치고 절규했음에도 사람이 사랍답게 살게 해달라고 우리도 모두 다 똑같은 사람이라고 사람은 기계가 아니라고 그렇게도 외치고 또 외쳤건만 변한 건 아무 것도 없어 아무 것도 * English You closed your eyes when everyone was looking at you in front You left with a long sigh on the road to eternity You scream with that much ardent desperation You propose a toast to something worth more than life You burned up with fury when everyone was looking at you in front You left with those tears on the road to eternity You sought to make the dark, dark road brighter You yourself became a light to the world This place is full of lies and hypocrisy No matter how much time passes, nothing ever changes, does it? You can scream and shout that but people just cover their eyes and ears and go on living People will just keep living as they do You can tell them we are all the same You can say people aren’t machines You can scream and shout all you want but nothing ever changes, nothing * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Lost 07:29
무엇을 향해서 걸어가고 있을까 수많은 기억들로 가득 채워진 발자국 시간은 멈춤없이 흘러가고 두 발은 목표없이 걸어가네 미래를 위해서 많은 것을 버려야했지 아무 것도 가질 수가 없었어 난 그저 바라만 보며 기억의 필름에 눈으로 사진을 찍어둬야만 했지 결국 나는 나를 잃어버리고 아무도 없는 곳을 향해 걸어가네 미래를 위해서 많은 것을 버려야했지 아무 것도 가질 수가 없었어 남겨진 기억은 허탈한 감성 한 편에 잘려진 필름으로 조각조각 남아있어 모든 게 꺼져가는 불꽃처럼 사그라지지 우리가 함께 했었던 소중한 시간들 * English Am I walking towards anything, I wonder? My footsteps are filled with countless memories Time passes by without end My two feet walk on without purpose I had to throw away so much for the sake of the future I couldn’t hold on to anything As I just stared at the film of my memory, I could only take photos with my eyes Eventually, I lost myself I’m walking to a deserted place I had to throw away so much for the sake of the future I couldn’t hold on to anything The film of my memories, of despondent sensitivity, are left to one side, cut into pieces Everything subsides like extinguished fireworks, (even) the precious times we spent together * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Dark Sea 07:50
저 짙은 어둠 속으로 사라지는 별빛 아무 것도 보이지 않는 그 검은 바다 속으로 * English Starlight disappears into that deep darkness, into that dark sea in which nothing can be seen * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)

Void Circle 10:46
어두운 밤 하늘 넘어 멀어지는 그 기억들 어디에서 왔고 어디로 가는지 알지 못한 채 그렇게 멀어지네 아득히 먼 곳으로 흩어진 시간과 공간의 기억 한 점의 빛으로 또 어둠으로 순간과 영원을 담은 * English The dark night passes over the sky Those memories grow further away Where they came from and where they’re going it’s impossible to know They grow further away They’re scattered far in the distance, the memories of time and space One speck of light as well as the darkness contain both a moment and eternity * Translated by © House of the Dragonfly (https://mongkibijeuniseu.wordpress.com)
