This is a heartbreakingly poignant BEAST ballad that turns a premonition of parting into certainty.

The protagonist’s despair—realizing a lover’s betrayal yet pretending not to see it—is conveyed through a chest-tightening melody and the members’ emotive vocals.

Released first as a single in January 2012, it reached No.

1 on the Gaon Chart.

It was also included on the July EP “Midnight Sun,” and its first live performance during the world tour “Beautiful Show” drew considerable attention.

When you’re wrapped in an inescapable loneliness, why not gently lean into the protagonist’s pain?

A poignant ballad that colors the world of the drama “My Princess,” starring Song Seung-heon and Kim Tae-hee.

It portrays the helpless feelings of a protagonist whose mind is completely consumed by the person they’ve fallen for, unable to focus on anything else—murmuring, almost like a monologue, that it’s all because of you.

The song was released in January 2011 as part of the drama’s OST.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to when you wish to immerse yourself in a dramatic world while staying close to the characters’ emotions.

A track that shook the hearts of fans who longed for their return, symbolizing BEAST’s resurgence! Its hope-filled melody resonates in the chest like a warm spring breeze after a harsh winter.

As the words “it’s not the end” suggest, the time apart was never a farewell, but rather a prologue to their reunion.

This song is included on the mini-album “The Blowing,” released in May 2021, and it impressively took first place on Korean music shows.

Listen to it when you’re wishing to reunite with someone dear or standing at the start of something new—it’s sure to fill you with courage.

Like a spring that moistens a parched heart, this BEAST track gently embraces listeners’ souls.
