Throw Back Thursday! 2013

He was having fun with a folk song!!!  What an energy! This was on Immortal Song 2 TV program in 2013.
By the time I saw this video for the first time around mid 2014, I had already started paying attention to him on you tube, because of dozens of videos I discovered, mostly from IS2 and some from live concerts. Somehow  I  created an image of him in my mind, of a young singer with completely awesome voice, but very serious and solemn, and specializing in epic ballads. Turned out I was quite a bit wrong.  Suddenly I discovered  he had  many different sides. Suddenly I saw his adorable youthfulness, as well as his humorous side. First, through the somewhat parody-like "Companion", and very soon after that,  this one:  "Kwengjina Chingchinane".
Discovery of Jung Dong Ha's playful side thrilled me very much.  "Well,  he is completely different than I thought, and I like it!" - that was my conclusion. And I stopped hesitating whether I should become his fan. "Of course, I should!" Who else can thrill me as much, and who else is able to deliver all kinds of  emotions through his singing. Nobody that I know of.
The video below, is just a small example how very energetic on stage he can be, and how his enthusiasm is so very contagious. He does it so well - invites the audience to have fun together with him, and for a moment forget about the everyday troubles.
I really love the use of traditional Korean instruments  in this song.

(Note to myself: do the throw-back Thursdays on regular basis. It should be easier to post than specific subject blogs. Maybe subject blogging is too ambitious for me, resulting in big gaps in posts. I don't lack ideas, but it's always difficult for me  to write what I want in one sitting. Then I keep my unfinished posts in drafts folder for too long, and they become stale).
