친구야 사랑해한스밴드
A friendship song by a Hans band that was mainly active in the 1990s with a lineup of three sisters.
Set to a relaxed band sound, it conveys simple, heartfelt feelings toward a beloved friend.
Rather than being in the present tense, the lyrics feel more like looking back on memories with old friends—perhaps recalling student days when bonds deepened through the occasional argument.
All things considered, the fun memories remain so vivid, don’t they? Despite the bright vocals, there’s a faint hint of poignancy, but a friendship song like this can be nice once in a while.
