I Started Crying While Watching This - Tumblr Posts
last night, during the second day (physical) of the 32nd golden disk awards, lee hi paid tribute to jonghyun by performing “한숨 (breathe)”, which he composed and wrote for her. a direct link to the performance can be found here . before the start of the performance a short commemorative video was aired of jonghyun. below is a translation of the dialogue and text within it: on a day an exceptional among of snow covered the world in white, the star that shined the brightest on stage because a star that shines the brightest in the night sky. “when you’re comforting someone, rather than comfort them by comparing to your situation or the situations of others, i think it’s best to comfort them about that person’s situation”. your words were comforting pats to us. “if there are people who are exhausted from reality, as you listen to this song, i hope they’ll know that there is someone here who is like them”. your music was a warm embrace to us. “jonghyunnie hyung who is the best artist of my life, friend, hyung and colleague - you worked hard. i love you so much” - shinee’s key. “i’m sorry i couldn’t embrace you enough. i love you and thank you. i miss you a lot and i want to hold your hand” - snsd’s taeyeon. “trust artist jonghyun sunbaenim, we miss you so much and we love you. we will remember you forever” - exo “life is a continuation of meetings and farewells. because of that process i believe that we grow. immediately, it’s regrettable. sadness and tears come, but we will meet again.” tonight, we say our greetings to the star that is shining the brightest in the sky. you worked hard. you really went through a lot. (last part, sung by jonghyun and implied) you are my pride.
