For once after so long, I have finally found THE American TV drama that can hooked me on like nothing else matters. And usually, when it’s the series that I like, high chances are, one, it’ll get canceled even before it reaches the end of its first season, or 2. they’ll get canceled no matter what. But for this one, hey at least they got 3 seasons already (BIG woohoo!)
Yiruma @ Lee Hana’s Peppermint music show.
Shown on December 13 ‘2008 (4th episode)
Not sure if he has ever done this before, but this is the very first time (for me) seeing him playing piano and singing at the same time - and it’s for “River Flows In You” no less. This song is supposed to be instrumental song like other marvelous songs he has written. “River flows in you” definitely has Yiruma’s signature all over it, and everytime I hear this song, I could just picture how a steady overflowing river… hmmm… =D
Absolutely wonderful. His voice is awesome too! ^^
I’m glad he came on the show (and saved Lee Hana’s Peppermint show once again lolz. I know, I know, I have a problem with this show. How sad~)
This super talented pianist, (to whom I always like to refer him as the Jim Brickman of Korea) Yiruma has been selected as the DJ for KBS1 93.1 FM “All the music of the world”.
So, starting today, January 1 ‘2009, for 2 hours at 6pm (Mon-Fri), Yiruma will be replacing the previous host, the tenor singer Im Tae Gyeong (35). As PD Ahn Jong Ho said, because of Im Tae Gyeong’s international schedule will be difficult for him to continue on with this program, Yiruma is the perfect choice for the next host of this program.
(Well, yes, of course. Perfect Choice. What could’ve been better to pick a pianist like Yiruma, who has started his piano from the age of 5, to be the DJ of a classical FM radio? *Giddy* This is awesome~ though I’m not a big fan of classical music *grin*)
First of, BIG Thanks to dearest _shin_ for this bringing this up to my attention <3
What are the chances? This song, Still With You was on Blue Night a couple week nights ago, and one of Jazzholic’s avid readers also brought this site to my attention (yes, Alex did a freestyle in that dark room, keke.. totally awesome nonetheless), and now, on the first day of 2009, Alex and Na Yoon Kwon AND YIRUMA gave us this special present as the opening song? *dies* This is just too…. wonderful. *happy blissful sigh*
(I know how much Alex loves this song, but I dare not to dream that he sang it live on Blue Night. Thank YOU, Algoon. Happy New Year to you too! MORE POWER & SUCCESS & LOVE ^^)
With Yiruma on the piano, together with Alex & Na Yoon Kwon, singing this beautiful, Eric Benet’s song on Blue Night’s opening is an absolute MAGICAL moment. I just hope this picture would give the complete mental picture in our head of how the three of them this song justice last night. Isn’t Blue Night so awesome?! ^^
A closer look of the man behind the piano… YIRUMA <3
What a way to start the new year with, especially with last night’s special presentation of Shinae’s upcoming drama, 천추태후 (The Iron Empress/Empress Cheon Chu). The drama will have its premiere episode this Saturday, Jan 3 ‘2009.
Love this happy, smiley Shinae in hanbok <3 Very gorgeous indeed!
JAZZHOLIC for all that jazz
and everything in between, above and beyond.
What's up?
Yay~~ finally caught up with all the Blue Night links for 2008... 6 months commitment and still going strong (i hope) http://twitter.com/ay_link2009/01/01
