The First Stanza
Description
A collection of Yongseo’s first encounters
Foreword
I’ve read somewhere, in a blog, (unfortunately I forget what blog it was, or who the poster of the article was), it discussed about Banmal Song and how Yong wrote their first meeting, which was awkward and full of shyness, as the first sentence of the lyrics.
The day when I first saw you
Your bright smile full of shyness
We’ll get closer after today
Every day, I have heart-fluttering expectations
- For First Time Lovers (Banmal Song) – Jung Yong Hwa-
The song was released on January 14, 2011. Then two months later, on March 21, 2011, CNBLUE launched their first Korean full length album titled First Step, with Imagine included in the track list. And guess what? He wrote about first meeting again.
When I first saw you, it was like a dream
Because of your smiles which are like that of an angel
If this you could become my love, what would I do?
Just thinking about that had me feel so happy
- Imagine – CNBLUE-
Despite the resemblance of the first verse on the lyrics of both songs, I dare not to claim that he wrote both songs for Hyun, though admittedly one of them was.
But this fact inspires me.
I, in all honesty, think that their first official meeting in MBC’s lobby was one of those magical moments throughout their journey as YongSeo couple in WGM. Although awkward and cringe-worthy in some parts, it was unforgettable and…magical.
So I want to try to recreate those magical moments of their first meeting in varied universes. I’ll try to make it sweet and quirky.
I hope I won’t disappoint.
P. S.: Yong never wrote about first meeting again in his following works. I guess he just didn’t meet anyone that left him wonderstruck after 2011. Lol
P. S. S.: No sequel, sawry...
P. S. S. S.: another warning, it might be a bit weird, or too weird for your taste, since I promise a quirky ones...
