My Song And…윤하 Younha
Isn’t it wonderful to have a friend who makes you feel like everything will be okay, no matter what happens? Someone you can laugh with over silly things and simply feel happy just being together.
“My Song and…” is a track that sings about unwavering love for such a friend.
It was released on Younha’s 2008 album “Someday,” and she’s well known for the hit song “Event Horizon.” Originally written for her fans, the song’s deep affection is truly moving.
With its gentle band ensemble, romantic lyrics, and emotionally stirring resonance, it feels like a song that speaks for eternal bonds and friendship.
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.

The lyrics—promising to be an umbrella on rainy days and a guardian on sunny days—convey a deep bond.
Its gentle, comforting arrangement will surely encourage listeners when their hearts feel weary.
The message asking you to look up at the lonely night sky and remember him carries a warm, heartfelt touch.

An EDM-flavored uptempo track that thrills from the intro, “My Friends” is a song by the girl group NeonPunch, which unfortunately disbanded in 2020 due to various factors including the COVID-19 pandemic.
It was included on their 2019 mini-album WATCH OUT.
The lyrics convey a sense of bond, with lines like “Joy is doubled, sorrow is halved.” It’s reassuring and heartwarming when a beloved friend tells you, “We’re together no matter what.” The lively sound gives you energy too, so be sure to sing it at karaoke and have fun when you’re out with friends!
