Kim Soo Hyun – Dreaming (Japanese Version)

AHHH!! It’s my Dream High, one true pair, SAMMI! Wait a minute, did they ever release “Maybe” as a couple duet? *waves fist in air* Anyway, our young star, Kim Soo Hyun just released his Japanese rendition of Dreaming today. Have a listen below the cut!

Japanese Version below

And here’s the original, sung by Song Sam Dong, and one of my favorite scenes in Dream High as Hye Mi becomes his medium, connecting him to us. I cry every single time I watch this scene. Too powerful and poignant. Too short and yet cuts so deep in the right places.

Translated Lyrics of Dreaming. [Credit: infamyys@livejournal]

I was looking at my dream that is being deemed far away
And I was standing blankly
I don’t have anything left any more
I thought about giving up everything, but
I am standing up again

Even today step by step
I step forward carefully
My heart is full of fears
but it’s an excitement I’m embracing
I am staggering and shaking
But, I step forward towards
the dream that I am going to meet some day

As I’m thinking if it’s going to end like this
A fear constantly comes
I’m hesitating but
Deep inside my heart
There’s an unstoppable beating
that drags me forward

Even today step by step
I step forward carefully
My heart is full of fears
but it’s an excitement I’m embracing
I am staggering and shaking
But, I step forward towards
the dream that I am going to meet some day

Even today step by step
I step forward carefully
My heart is full of fears
but it’s an excitement I’m embracing
I am staggering and shaking
But, I step forward towards
the dream that I am going to meet some day

Towards the dream that I am going to meet some day

Alice: Overwhelmed with fear, he’s found the courage to continue and succeed. That is our country pumpkin, Song Sam Dong.

    WATASHI WA AI NI IMASU!!!  Alice, you're just hitting all my buttons these days — KSH is my second crush right behind JCW.  Do we share a brain or what?!? 😉

    I'm very impressed with KSH's pronunciation, but it seems to me that the Japanese version is a bit more forceful and profound.  Maybe the Korean version is slightly watered down because it came directly from the TV show, but the Japanese version moved me a whole lot more.  Substitute the new version into the KBS drama though, and you'll have to scrape me off the floor from crying so hard…

    Oh, I almost forgot… BUBBLES!!!!  🙂

    Well, what can I say! Great minds think alike ^^. I've heard the korean version kazillion times already so it has a strong hold to my ears. I'm impressed with his pronunciation too! Seems like he's ready to take over the world with that face and voice. =D

    The bubbles make everything surreal and prettyyyyyyyy!

    LOL Alice — I've got your back!! 🙂

    "DH" has already aired in Japan, ne?  Which broadcaster ended up with the rights?  Assuming it was subbed, it would have been freakin' AWESOME to hear the songs in Japanese in real time!!
