When autumn comes이문세

It reflects on days spent looking back on a once-happy season.
Kyuhyun’s richly emotive voice deepens the wistful mood, doesn’t it? It’s a classic autumn song often heard on the streets of Korea—melancholic yet ultimately evocative of the illuminated lights of Gwanghwamun, as if sketching out a new future.

Say My NameMIYEON
In her solo activities in November 2025, Miyeon delivered a pop ballad steeped in the lingering afterglow of a farewell.
While she’s known for dynamic tracks with (G)I-DLE, this title song from her second solo mini-album, “MY, Lover,” layers a clear, pure vocal over the spacious interplay of delicate piano melodies and a rhythmic beat, richly portraying the call of a loved one that doesn’t fade even after parting.
The lingering memory of a name that echoes like reverb, and a sense of time that drifts between dreams and reality, are carefully woven together, conveying a moving stance of acceptance rather than actively trying to forget.
The beauty of her vocal delivery stands out against the understated accompaniment, precisely because it is stripped of excessive ornamentation.
It’s a song you’ll want to play on a long autumn night.
