"Music is a Time Machine"... Memories of an OST accompanied by a Jeju Island trip

Through the talk on this day, Jung Dong-ha confessed what meaning drama OSTs hold in his life. He recalled a Jeju Island trip he took with his in-laws during a time when his circumstances were difficult and mentioned a song that was a great source of strength at that time.

Jung Dong-ha said, "When I went on a Jeju Island trip with my in-laws, the OST called 'You, Like Destiny' was just becoming popular," and added, "At that time, my circumstances were very difficult, but it was a trip we took with grateful hearts, and the whole family listened to this song throughout the car ride." He continued, emphasizing the power of music to summon memories, saying, "Music is like a time machine. If you close your eyes and listen, you return to that moment." The song was also used as his ringback tone for a long period.

"A voice that becomes a genre"... A wide spectrum from OSTs to family songs

MC Park Hak-gi highly evaluated his musical capabilities, saying to Jung Dong-ha, "It is no exaggeration to say that regardless of the genre, such as rock ballads or drama OSTs, if he sings it, it becomes the genre." Responding to this, Jung Dong-ha mentioned 'Fighter' among the many OSTs he has sung and led the atmosphere of the scene by performing a verse of the song a cappella.

Additionally, regarding his recent activities, Jung Dong-ha said, "Everyone's life is a single drama, and they have a BGM (background music) for that life." Mentioning 'You're My Fairy', which he released after writing the lyrics together while raising his daughters, he conveyed that the time spent with his family was more like a movie than any drama. He added that this song was not intended for release but was a "family song" made to commemorate the time spent with his family.
