Background

Length Label Writer(s)

Jung Yong Hwa released rewritten and rearrangement of F&C Music Producer Banmal Song composed by him and written by him and Seohyun, his on-screen wife. Banmal Song expressed his wish for her to speak in "banmal" (Hangul: , meaning "informal language" in English) with him and her response to his wish. It was part of the Banmal Song video[1] made as a mission on MBCs TV show We Got Married for YongSeo Couple (Hangul: ), a virtually wed couple, to make their own duet song and post it on YouTube. The song's video on YouTube was very popular to hit 1 million views just in two days, and as of 2 April 2013, its view count exceeded 5 million. Re-titled to For First Time Lovers, the song features lovely lyrics for first-time lovers to get closer and an easy-to-follow melody with a light acoustic sound.[2] The couple's fans around the world wanted them to release their duet version of the song, but Jung Yong Hwa composed the song by himself regardless of the broadcast, inspired by Seohyun, and at the time, it was impossible for the couple to duet in a given situation.

. (Banmal Song is our couple's song.) .. . (Well, it is far from perfect, but we put lots of time and effort into it.) ..........(It makes us cringe.) . (However, it is our self-composed song, so it is very meaningful to us.) ! (Thank you for watching our video and listening to our song.) sweetpotato4339 @YouTube.com
