– A story I want to tell to the woman I broke up with. Ahn Jae Wook’s single “For Her…”
With his friendly image and warm vocals, Ahn Jae Wook is back with his new mini album after a long hiatus of two years. Ahn Jae Wook worked on this album with talented singer and songwriter Lim Hyun Jung, who composed songs such as “First Love” and “Love Is Like The Spring Rain and Break Up Is Like The Winter Rain”. For this mini album, Lim Hyun Jung composed and wrote all three tracks and also produced this album. Ahn Jae Wook had been singing songs that were popular and familiar to Korean listeners for several years, but for this mini album, he will be showing a new side of him by expressing deep sorrow and a variety of emotions as he sings songs about break-ups. The title track “Whether It Is Break Up” is a medium-tempo ballad that talks about the three stages of breaking up: the beginning of a break-up, during a break-up and after a break-up. The string orchestra does a good job of putting all the sad emotions and feelings into the song.
