What I Think:

This series has a wonderful storyline. Jisung and Eugene have great chemistry, and it is just wonderful that GM Jung Tae Min loves Ji Eunsoo that he goes out of his way help her without her even knowing.

Yoon SooJin is also good as the brat ex-fiancee of Kang HyunWoo, I think she is very pretty, prettier than Eugene, I want to hate her but cant seem too. She is just annoying really.

Eugene Kim, ahhh I just like her with SES, love her songs too and it is just amazing that she can actually act too. Ji Sung is another revelation, I have not heard of him before I watched SDLD, the first time I saw him I didn’t like him that much but when I saw him in SDLD every perception I have of him just changed, I got to like him. He is a good actor too.

Give My Love (English) - Edward Chun

My Dream – Eugene

Our Love Will Always Last (English Version) - Edward Chun

 

 

GIVE MY LOVE
Performed by: Edward Chun

When I look in your eyes I can see that you
Wanna be with me but you're so scared
And I don't know what to to say or do
But the tears keep falling in your eyes
And I know that times won't change my love
And I can't do nothing to keep you

Chorus:
(Oh/Now) I'll give my love oh when I hold you tight
Give my love through kisses oh so bright
And you know that I can't change my life
Take my love all through the night

As the hours pass away
You think that love ain’t here to stay
Feel a beat from your chest
But you don’t give doubt a moment’s rest
You dream the future and all you see is dark
Listen to your heart, baby, the truth will set sparks

(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental)

Now I'll give my love away when I hold you tight
Give my love through kisses oh so bright
And you know that time won't change my life
Take my love all through the night

(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental)

Our Love Will Always Last (English Version) - Edward Chun

As we walk this land
Side by side, hand in hand
I know that some clouds may pass
But if we hold on tight
And love with all our might
Then the thorns in our life will never last
And the roads may sometimes be unpaved
You may think that our love can not be saved
Though the world out there
May be cold to all we share
I have you, to take me through the night
And if we hold on tight
And stay true to all that’s right
Then baby, our love will always last…

See the sunrise in the sky
Kiss the sunset as we lie
At night, I’ll never leave your side
But I know someday
I’ll be gone, and you’ll be gray
Oh, darling, wish that I could heal your pain…

Though the world out there
May be cold to all we share
I have you, to take me through the night
And if we hold on tight
And stay true to all that’s right
Then baby, our love will always last…

And if we hold on tight, stay true to all that’s right
Then baby, our love will always last
