Hello everybody?
First of all, please understand that my English is not correct.
So I'm not used to the site menu yet and I don't know what to do

I am a 60-year-old Korean male who likes music
1. This music was first made using the guitar in 1983 when I was still a teenager.
2. I made music through MIDI during my time at work
3. Starting in 2021, I started making songs with Band in the Box
4. I made this song using Synthesizer V, a virtual voice program in 2024
(Syntheseizer V program doesn't support Korean yet!)
5. It's my first time posting it on PG Music, which helped me a lot in my music life.
6. It's a long time ago, so it's very different from today's music, but I'd appreciate it if you guys enjoyed it.
7. We are also ready to listen to all the evaluations with pleasure.

I hope you have a great Christmas.

여러분 안녕하세요?
우선, 제 영어가 올바르지 않다는 점을 이해해 주세요.
그래서 아직 사이트 메뉴가 익숙하지 않고 어떻게 해야 하는지 잘 모릅니다

저는 음악을 좋아하는 60세 한국 남성입니다
1. 노래는 아직 10대일때인 1983년 처음 기타를 이용해 만들었던 음악입니다.
2. 직장 생활을 하면서 틈틈이 미디로 음악을 만들었으며
3. 2021년 부터 그동안 만들었던 노래를 조금씩 Band in the Box로 연주곡을 만들기 시작 했습니다
4. 2024년 올해 가상 음성 프로그램 Synthesizer V를 이용해 노랫말을 추가해서 만들었습니다
(Synthesizer V 프로그램이 아직 한국어는 지원하지 않습니다 ㅠㅠ!)
5. 나의 음악 인생에 많은 도움을 준 PG Music에 처음 올려 봅니다.
6. 오래 전의 음악이라 오늘날의 음악과는 많이 다르지만 여러분들이 즐겨주시면 감사하겠습니다.
7. 또한 모든 평가를 기쁘게 들을 준비가 되었습니다.
즐거운 크리스마스 보내시길 바랍니다.

asom2me, welcome! 40+ years is a very long time to carry a song around, congratulations for getting it to this level. Can't imagine how hard it would be for me to compose a song in Korean, so much respect to you for this English version. Enjoyed listening to your song and you have done a nice job with Band in a Box instruments. The English phrasing isn't perfect, but that did not detract from my enjoyment of your song. THANK YOU for posting!

Thank you.
Even though I lacked a lot, warm interest and good writing gave me great joy and strength.
Also, thank you to everyone who listened to the music.

Hi asom2me.

안녕하세요 smile I promise you that my Korean is a thousand times worse than your English.

Welcome to the forums.

I really enjoyed listening to your song and watching your video. I'm a huge fan of South Korean TV series. I'm guessing that that is why I can hear a hint of Korean folk-music in what you have composed. I love it! Songs don't have to be in English on the forum. There are people from all around the world on this forum and I've heard songs in many different languages on here.

I look forward to hearing more of your music. Thank you for posting.

Regards,
--Noel

Welcome to the forum, aSoM!! Very cool first post, too. Your English is far better than my Korean. The only words I know came from Hapkido. Great job on the synth vocal. I like the hook; it's very catchy --even after the song ends. Good production, too. I liked it so much I went in to listen to a few more from your YT channel. Have a fun Christmas.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Your song is very good but if I may give you some advice, I would correct the mix a little. by making the drums less loud, less treble and more bass and the accompanying instruments (guitar, bass and piano) more audible. Otherwise very well done.

A breath of fresh air! The melody is easy on the ear. There are Korean roots in the song, aren't there? Thanks for sharing

Thank you.
I think drums are emphasized a lot because I like rock music in the 70s and 80s
