Flower That Bloom When Shaken

Where is the flower that blooms without shaking?
Any of the beautiful flowers of this world all bloom while being shaken.
They shake on stems that grow upright.

Where is the love that goes without shaking?

Where is the flower that blooms without being soaked?
Any of the shining flowers of this world bloom as they are soaked.
Soaked by wind and rain, petals bloom warmly.

Where is the life goes without being soaked?

Unrequited Love


How timid and delicate unrequited love is?

Even though unrequited love finds its own way in..
It's a love that gets trapped inside, unable to find an exit.

Even though I'm the one who started it..
Without knowing a thing, if he leaves my sight one day..
It's a love that ends vain without it having a purpose.

With a spectacular night view of Seoul and a wide range of restaurants, the N Seoul Tower (simplified as just Seoul Tower) is emerging as a hot spot for a growing number of romantics, both young and old. Located in central Seoul in the middle of Namsan Park, the tower reaches 480 meters above sea level, allowing a luxurious view of the entire city and the surrounding areas.
During the weekend, the tower is almost always full with visitors, both locals and tourists alike. Most visitors ride the Namsan cable car up the mountain, and then hike up to the tower. As I made my way up towards the base of the tower.
