I was all looking forward to Lee Seung Gi‘s return to dramaland early next year with his fantasy sageuk when the boy up and snuck a mini-album drop on me this week. Sometimes it’s so refreshing to be pleasantly surprised, and to say the song and MV for Seung Gi’s first single off the mini-album is simply pleasant is an understatement. “Return” is a lovely melancholy ballad that complements Seung Gi’s delicious voice to perfection and suits this wonderful cold Fall atmosphere so well. Even better is getting teenage acting wunderkinds Kim Yoo Jung and Park Gun Tae to star as the teenage sweethearts in the MV. I shipped Kim Yoo Jung and Park Gun Tae’s characters so hard in May Queen (the adult versions were played by Han Hye Jin and Jae Hee), and I have to say their chemistry is still amazing even in the context of an MV.
It’s sort of ironic that currently we also have the other two teenage acting wunderkinds Yeo Jin Gu and Kim So Hyun angsting their hearts out on Missing You. As much as I appreciate Yeo Jin Gu, it’s actually Park Gun Tae that’s my teenage acting bias, especially since he keeps playing the younger versions of some of my favorite guys (Lee Jun Ki in Time Between Dog and Wolf, Yoo Seung Ho in Warrior Baek Dong Soo). This MV is therefore the perfect treat for me to liven up the senses from the recent steady diet of melodramas. Check out the MV and bask in Seung Gi’s voice while smiling through the cute high school crush moments between Park Gun Tae and Kim Yoo Jung. Both of them are also growing up so well! Sigh, Seung Gi is such a hyung/oppa now with so many youngsters coming after him.

They Played Togather In May Queen!! & I Love This Song I'm So Glad He's Back^^
First time I listened to the song and watched the MV, my eyes filled with tears of happiness. Both the song and the MV are so beautiful and nice. Thank you Ms. Koala. Btw, the title of the song in the MV is "Return" or some translate it as "Turn Back". "Forest" is the mini-album title and the third track in the album.^^
Thank you for posting! I loved that couple too! Too bad the series has turned out to be over the top bad!
yay, his healing 5.5 album ,that he made only for women :))all songs are masterpiece,espescially nr.4 Seung Gi written... he says these are will be songs you can listen to wake up and to get sleep at the end of the day,but all Aİren,include me ...are now in faint mode :D
and Park Gun Tae also played the young King Jae Kang in case you forgot ^^
This MV is so beautiful and melancholic. Love it. You should listen to the other tracks too, only 5 tracks in total, and they are all wonderful.
Seunggi said the drama probably airs in May, so that's totally not early year *sobs* I hope it will come out earlier though because how can I wait that long!
Of course I remember! Baby Jae Kang, which makes it super duper cuter that he's playing baby Seung Gi in this MV when in TK2H they were not the childhood-adult versions of each other.
King Jae Kang T_____T crying forever still. That and Shi Kyung. TK2H was just brutal.
Oh by the way Koala, have you watched the latest Running Man variety show episode? Seunggi and Shinhye are the guest and they are both so cute together. Shinhye should really be the leading lady in his next drama!

Oh my, Kim Yoo Jung is pretty hardcore with the jealousy, dismantling a piano key. Beautiful MV and song.
Seung Gi's voice is heaven... i was about to got to sleep since it's 1am already and i saw your post. love the MV! Kim Yoo Jung and Park Gun Tae really have great chemistry. Thanks so much for the post koala sis. :)
