Park Bo Gum Sings "Tomorrow" by BTS in"Record Of Youth” + Posts Update on His Twitter
Surely, Korean drama fans are feeling sad because our heartthrob oppa Park Bo Gum has already enlisted for his obligatory military service last August 31st. However, we feel a bit relieved since he left us with a new drama to enjoy while he's away, serving the country.
Just a warning: There may be some spoilers ahead for the drama's second episode so, if you haven't started watching the drama yet, please look away!
For those you are keeping an eye for the newly released drama "Record Of Youth", then for sure you are also one of those who has been bewitched by it. With just only two episodes released, we have already experienced the relatable fangirl-ing moments of Jeong Ha (Park So Dam), we have witnessed Hye Jun's (Park Bo Gum) sentimental family setup and we were also able to get a glimpse of the unconventional side of the modeling industry.
In the second episode of the drama, Hye Jun (Park Bo Gum) received sad news that he was not chosen as a cast in a big movie production, in which his BFF Hae Hyo (Byeon Woo Seok) was got the role instead of him. So what Hye Jun did to cope form the rejection is he went to a norebang to sing his heart out! After he sang a couple of songs, we have heard a very familiar sound, as we were thoroughly listening, we discovered that the song was none other than BTS's "Tomorrow"!
The said song was released way back 2014 with the EP "Skool Luv Affair." It's a song about trying to show the view of a young adult towards life who are struggling to realize their big dreams which is somehow fitting for the drama "Record of Youth", right?
As seen in the scene, Hye Jun raps Suga's opening verse:
"Same day, same moon 24/7 every moment repeats
My life is in between Jobless twenty-somethings are afraid of tomorrow"
Then follows the first line of Jungkook's pre-chorus: "Follow your dream like breaker."
After the singing scene, the story continues as Hye Jun's friends advised him to stop feeling sorry for himself after he was not chosen for the role. Hye Jun then expressed that life's been very tough for him, but he finds inspiration with BTS' music, sharing: "I like the stories of BTS songs. When I hear their songs, it makes me inspired to live a good life."
On September 8, Park Bo Gum updated his Twitter with new photos and a caption of BTS' lyrics. He posted two photos of him while filming "Record of Youth".
Along with the photos, he wrote the meaningful lyrics of "Tomorrow" in the caption, which reads, "Even in the far future. Never forget the you of right now."
As of the moment, Park Bo Gum is in his mandatory military service, so it seems like his account is only being managed by his agency, Blossom Entertainment.
Just a fun fact, our handsome Bo Gum is an ARMY himself! He has been supporting BTS by attending their concerts and even performing their songs in his own fan meets.
You can catch the 1st and 2nd episodes of "Record of Youth" on Netflix every Monday and Tuesday at 9:30 p.m.
