My tribute to the tragic Lee Dae Gil, played to perfection by one of the best actors in the world, Jang Hyuk. "Chuno" is one of the greatest Korean Dramas ever made. I wanted to use an English language song and "Fallen" reminded me of the character and what he went through. (Though this is not even the half of it!)
*FALLEN LYRICS*
Heaven bent to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear
Though I've tried,
I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I've messed up better
I should know
So don't come 'round here
And tell me I told you so
We all begin with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything, I've held so dear
I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I've messed up better
I should know
So don't come 'round here
And tell me I told you so
Heaven bent to take my hand
I have nowhere left to turn
I've lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh, they turned their heads embarrassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one missed step, one slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
Though I've tried,
I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I've messed up better
I should know
So don't come 'round here
And tell me I told you so,
I've messed up better
I should know
But don't come 'round here
And tell me I told you so
*I know the Quality is up and down. I saved all the clips I needed off Youtube. Much thanks to every one who posted all sorts of clips and MVs that I was able to use.*
You can watch "Chuno" on Dramafever.com, gooddrama.net, or Netflix with subtitles. (Translations range from too simple, to difficult. I liked Netflix best. It was in between.)
