“It’s okay to be happy”.

This one is a personal favorite from Drunken Tiger (드렁큰 타이거). I remember listening to this song constantly freshman year. There’s struggle and strength, resistance and determination communicated through the music that I connected to. Later after learning more about Tiger JK, his story and his personal battle with a life-changing illness, this song and its narrative became that much more powerful. Even before I researched the lyrics, the fact that a story was being told as this track unfolded was clear.

I had been familiar with Superfine for a while before I discovered the music video and I loved it immediately. Check it out below!
