Radio Interview of Goo Hye Sun and Isao Sasaki at Yoo Hee Yul's Radio Heaven at 89.1MHz KBS 2FM (9/03/09)








English Translation by susamerica@soompi.com:


(Yoo Hee Yul’s Radio Heaven definitely seems like the kind of a music program that GHS would really love: kind of music he plays on air and his mellow, gently blunt and funny yet philosophical style,,,, I liked him too.)

She even admits to Yoo that she listens to him all the time and that she really likes him. She says she loves his sense of humor. Yoo requested that GHS’ statement be recorded special for his keepsake. (hahaha)

It is her first time meeting Yoo in person and finds him very handsome. It made Yoo turn red (according to GHS) and he also became distracted for a minute. He lost his speech for a second and told her that he also enjoys playing piano.(Maybe Yoo is offering that he would be willing to jam with her sometimes? It was funny! Also, GHS is true to her words as she said in TBS Kings’ Brunch Program. She cannot hold back if she likes somebody. She expressed in public radio program that she not only loves Yoo’s program and finds him very handsome but that she also likes him! Hahaha!)

He was embarrassed and thought that Isao Sasaki would think of him "crazy”. Everybody laughs. Then he says that he does not know what he is saying and he and GHS laugh. In the beginning of the program when he is introducing GHS and Isao Sasaki, he told GHS that he feels as if his eyes just turned bright and clear just by looking at her in person and expressed his admiration. (GHS and Yoo's flirtings with each other on air was adorable! Later, after GHS and Isao Sasaki have left already, one of his listeners send in a comment that today's program was quite different than before! hahaha)

She and Sasaki played combined with . GHS says that he and she are going to play that fusion music for the next CD together. (Wow, another CD already in preparation!)
GHS first approached Sasaki by sending him her music for review and GHS became Sasaki’s fan ever since she heard his as a child. Her first impression of Sasaki when she met in person was that he seemed like a very kind-hearted “AhJuhssi or Uncle”. That is how she calls Isao Sasaki and he understands it. They have met since about two months ago. (Remember she went to Japan in early July?)

Regarding his free concert, he could not clarify as he does not know the details.
GHS gained confidence to publicize her music because she also found out that Sasaki never learned piano professionally, just like herself. They share that commonality~ they both love to play and work on their music on their own and to create music on their own. Sasaki also learned various musical instruments on his own like violin and flute.

His first impression of GHS was, like everybody else, that she is very cute. He did not know much about her as he does not watch TV that much. Then he found out more about GHS through internet and found her to be a very impressive woman. He also found her music very refreshing and that is why he wanted to work with her. Sasaki also played his own composition, “A Beautiful Meeting”~ WOW, so good! What an appropriate title also for their first appearance together in public!!

It was announced by Yoo’s listener in this program that GHS’s is the number 3 on a particular music site! *WOW*
GHS also played her with a cellist named Jung Ji Eun. *WOW* Sounds really nice with the added cello sound.( I am even more looking forward to her movie now!!!) In response to a question about the cast for her movie, GHS states that she cannot yet reveal as she is begging someone to act in her movie right now. Yoo, without missing a beat, says that, right, in case that person rejects your offer, we do not want to think of her as a horrible person! (This is the point at which GHS told Yoo that is why she likes him!)

In response to some of the email questions, GHS stated that she has not yet received the comprehensive physical after BOF. After she explains why she needs physical exam, Yoo says that he will give her "ho ho" after the show. That expression of sound is usually given to little kids who have a "boo boo or bruise" and mothers usually blow on their cuts or bruises and say "ho ho". (hahah)

She really loves and has always wanted to do something with her love of writing, composing and drawing. She has gradually become very interested in directing and making movies as a result. She has been working on her crafts all her life and so far she has accumulated over 100 compositions and songs.
Isao Sasaki also played a bit of his famous .

WOW!
Towards the end of his program, Yoo also plays several Tango music!! (how appropriate as he and GHS talked about her book TANGO and all her other talents!)

Just hours after we posted the only vocal track, Down An Alley from Goo Hye Sun's musical album, the rest of the album tracks have now been uploaded onto Youtube.

Other than the vocal track (featuring Gummy), the other seven tracks on the album are full instrumental pieces composed by Goo Hye Sun, and will be used for her full-length movie, to be filmed at the end of the year.


Goo Hye Sun hopes to get her fans acclimatized to her music before viewing the actual movie. And once again, Goo Hye Sun did the artwork for her album jacket and you can get a feel of it from her album cover picture below. All of the track names are pretty philosophical, which is typical of Goo Hye Sun's style. Nice soothing tracks by the way, perfect if you want something to listen to as you wind down your day.


Goo Hye Sun will also be having her album commemorative concert, Over the Rainbow on 5th September, featuring famous Japanese entertainer, Isao Sasaki.

Fan Notes on Goo Hye Sun's New Age CD


English Translation by susamerica@soompi.com:

Thank you all for the previews and your own feedbacks about GHS' new CD music. I only heard Gummy singing. It is very moving and the lyrics are just lovely and the sulry voice of Gummy just bring me to tears too.


In another article, Gummy says she decided to sing for the album in return for GHS' illustration for her previous album jacket. If we can and are able, let us further support GHS by buying her CD. It could be a wonderful gesture from her overseas fans, especially with her upcoming 25th birthday on Nov. 9, 2009.

Plus, we may be helping out and investing in some way toward her new full-length movie!!! She would know by the high sales volume from overseas that she's got support everywhere. Don't you think so? At Cafe Daum, tons of articles about GHS's New Age CD: I just copied one below because there are netizens' comments. As most of the writing are praises and past info about her and Isao, I will just translate what some of the netizens said:


구혜선 전곡작곡 앨범발표 네티즌 호평 일색 ‘기대 이상’
뉴스엔 | 입력 2009.09.03 18:55 | 수정 2009.09.03 21:21
[뉴스엔 김형우 기자]

From Newsen 9/3/2009 by Reporter Kim Hyung Woo

만능 엔터테이너 구혜선이 첫 앨범을 발표했다.
Multi-talented GHS with her very first album


구 혜선의 소품집 '숨'은 9월3일 음원사이트를 통해 첫 공개됐다. 이번 소품집엔 연주곡을 중심으로 구혜선이 작곡한 총 8곡이 수록됐으며 타이틀곡인 '골목을 돌면'은 같은 소속사 가수 거미가 보컬로 나섰다. '골목을 돌면'을 제외한 7곡은 모두 연주곡이다.

구혜선의 앨범에 대한 평가는 대체적으로 호의적이다. 네티즌들은 기대이상이라는 평가로 구혜선의 앨범 발매를 축하했다. 네티즌들은 관련 커뮤니티에 "생각했던 것보다 노래 수준이 높다" "음악적 자질이 매우 뛰어난 것같다"고 전했다. 한 네티즌은 "음악적인 감수성이 매우 뛰어난 것 같다. 인기에 연연한 일부 아이돌 그룹 음악보다 훨씬 뛰어나다"고 글을 남겼다.

GHS's album is receiving good and friendly feedback in general.
(the reporter does not sound too enthusiastic, does he?!!)
Netizens are claiming that the album is beyond their expectation and sincerely congratulates GHS.

At the fan cafes', some of these comments are found: "musical level is higher than I thougt", "her musical skill level is excellent", her musical sensibility is amazing. much better than the popular idol groups music."
(I like the last comment. hahaha)

한 편 구혜선은 앨범 발표와 함께 일본 음악계 거장 이사오 사사키와 함께 작은 음악회를 연다. 구혜선은 오는 5일 서울 방이동 올림픽공원 내 우리금융아트홀에서 '오버 더 레인보우'(Over the rainbow)라는 주제로 작은 음악회를 개최한다.

일본 음악계 거장으로 꼽히고 있는 이사오 사사키는 '스카위 워커'(Sky walker)로 국내에도 잘 알려져 있다. 이사오 사사키의 이번 만남은 구혜선의 적극적인 러브콜로 이루어진 것으로 알려졌다.

Goo Hye Sun Sketchbook "Breathe"



Goo Hye Sun ::: Sketchbook Album Title : 골목을 돌면(GUMMY Vocal Ver.) &
Piano : Isao Sasaki(Japan Pianist) ::: Sketchbook Album「Breathe」Release





[Preview] Goo Hye Sun - Around the Alley (Vocals Ver. Feat Gummy)



The words to GHS’s song, sang by Gummy, are just so beautiful that I had to try a hand at translation so that you all hear the meaning. Her Korean writing style is very poetic and beautiful that I cannot do justice with my translation. Her last song that I translated was, I felt, still somewhat bitter and still angry about her break-up. But this song makes you think/feel that she is more at peace though still hurting somewhat.


If I turn at the end of the alley:

If I turn at the end of the alley, I feel as if you are there.
I close my eyes, without thinking, carefully, I walk towards it.
My love, all those happy times, wind blows at me the memories, again entangling me.

I loved you. Because I loved you, I am truly sorry for having hurt you.
If I turn at the end of the alley and if you promise to be there, silently I step closer to you and fall into your arms.

If I turn at the end of the alley, I feel as if you are there.
I close my eyes, without thinking, carefully. I walk towards it.
My love, all those happy times, wind blows at me the memories, again entangling me.

I loved you so much. Because I loved you so much, I am truly sorry for having hurt you.
If I turn at the end of the alley and if you promise to be there, silently I step closer to you and fall into your arms.

Then, I was too young and could not understand. Now that time has flown by,
I realized that it was love. I did not know then. Isn’t it funny? I pretended to know it all back then. Finally, as little as a clip of a nail, I realized now that was love.

I loved you so much. Because I loved you so much, I am so sorry for having hurt you.

I am going to understand you now. I am now going to let you go. Comfortably, in my memory.

I loved you so much. Because I loved you so much, I am so sorry for having hurt you.
I am going to understand you now. I will let you go. Comfortably, in each other’s memories.
