Kim Nam-Gil Challenge Month – Day 12

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…

Song Title: 月光 | Moonlight 
Singer: 胡彥斌 | Anson Hu 
Composer: 胡彥斌 | Anson Hu

(The colour of the moonlight, the sweet fragrence of women)
月光色 女子香

(Sword broken by tears, affection lasts for how long)
淚斷劍 情多長
lèi duàn jiàn    qíng duō zhǎng

(How painful, no words can describe)
有多痛 無字想

(Surprassing gates of love, who dares to cross)
過情關 誰敢闖
guò qíng guān   shuí gǎn chuǎng

(Looking at the bright moonlight, heart filled with misery)
望明月 心悲涼
wàng míng yuè   xīn bēi liáng

(Hatred through the years, rebirth and taste it again)
千古恨 輪回嘗
qiān gǔ hèn    lún huí cháng

(Once eyes closed, who's the most insane)
眼一閉 誰最狂
yǎn yī bì     shuí zuì kuáng

(The uncertainty of the world)
這世道的無常
zhè shì dào de wú cháng

(Those who dare to love, lives a life full of injuries)
注定敢愛的人一生傷

Kim Nam-Gil Challenge Month – Day 11

Day 11: Something you would like him to never change

Nam-Gil oppa’s aegyo-ness is unrivaled and is something that I hope he will retain forever. He is very expressive in his acting and quite parallel to his true personality — a happy, playful chatterbox. XD You can see it evident with his interviews and costars. I adore his loving and unique demeanor, hopefully he will continue receive roles that allow him to portray characters with this sweet and fuzzy side. 

This showcases it all, I couldn’t have say it better…

Kim Nam-Gil Challenge Month – Day 10

Day 10: Post your favorite throwback photo of Kim Nam-Gil.

This is a really captivating photo of Nam-Gil oppa. XD I think its from one of his old commercial shoots and screams modern version of Bidam to me! 

Love everything about the photo — his mischievous smirk, his exquisite pose, and his suave attire. The bad-ass and mysterious aura suits him perfectly. His physique was quite slender back then, I am sure he looked amazing in anything. ♡♡

This is just me and my imagination running wild…modern Bidam would be quite a playboy compared to his naive and innocent young counterpart in Queen SeonDeok. lol But he has a heart of gold despite his rough edges and tries hard to protect what he treasures. He changes when he finds his true love and might even have a pet cat to showcase his playful and caring nature.  I really need some good modern Bidam fanfic to fulfill my void now. hehehe. Recommendations anyone? :)
