this is an amazing album. has anyone else heard it? the best comparison i can make--echoed elsewhere, but accurate--is a korean francoise hardy gone psych-folk. real smooth, completely intoxicating, beautiful all around. apparently it's insanely hard to find; i downloaded it from an MP3 blog and i've been listening to it incessantly.

This was the first Korean psych-folk album I ever listened to, and I really enjoyed it at first. However, I think after I got over the "Wow! Psych-folk from Korea!" part it sounded less fresh to my ears. Nevertheless, I think she still stands out from contemporaries like San Ul Lim and Shin Jung Hyun.

fifteen years pass...

Yeah this rules. Feels like it foreshadows a lot of much more recent music, although I can't entirely say what

Thanks! I just sent a link to my mother. I can understand most of the lyrics :).
