Day 12: Most favorite fan-made video of one of his characters
I have seen quite a few FMV of Bidam over the Internet, Moonlight (月光) is among the best. It is the themesong to 3D Chinese animation series, The Legend of Qin (秦时明月) and suits Bidam perfectly.
I am not familiar with Anson Hu (胡彥斌) until I came across this FMV and found his vocals to be powerful and unique, as well as, smooth and velvety. The way he conveys raw emotions through music is impressively beautiful.
Moonlight represents Bidam wonderfully. The lyrics showcase the different phrases of his journey, what he experienced and endured — from loneliness to love to pain. It defines the life of a skilled swordsman, often in solitude, scarred and tragic due to many different factors, much like Bidam’s. The scene selection was nicely done as well, weaving his tale to correspond with the song. :)
Whenever I watch this FMW, my heartstrings are always tugged. Poor Bidam, let me give you a hug. He would have been more suitable in a vagabond life (江湖) rather than politics. The last scene in the FMV gave me such a feeling. If he just left, he would be freed and be the master of whatever he wants. Though, I cannot ponder how much regret and sorrow, Bidam would have been without Deokman. *sigh* Though, I hate to admit this, his ending was appropriate after re-watching Queen Seondeok multiple times. lol
Crossing my fingers, maybe in the future, Nam-Gil oppa and Lee Yo-Won can be reunited in a modern series together. I don’t think Yo-Won ssi does romantic series anymore, don’t quote me on that. lol Just having the two of them sharing the screen is enough for me.
Here are the lyrics in English, Chinese and Pinyin…
