  • This is a special one for all of us.
    Over the summer, we had to say a temporary goodbye to one of our brothers.
    The soloist on this song, the wonderfully talented and beautifully kind Phillip Kim, has been called to service in the South Korean military, where he will be serving for the next two years. While we're all sending positive thoughts to him and hoping for his safe return, we feel that the best way to honor Phillip is to make his incredible voice heard.
    When Phillip returns in two years, the group will be very different. The guys will be very different. But the love of music and brotherhood will always remain the same.
    MeloLove.
    Soloist: Phillip Kim
    Arrangement: James McHugh

Your one Korean friend isn't "most". The ones I notice that share the sentiment you commented are ones with wealthy mommies and daddies and feel its beneath them.
