In Japan, Jejung, who is active as an artist and appears on variety shows, has become a topic of discussion for starring in the drama 'Eraser of Bad Memories' for the first time in about 7 years. The original soundtrack CD for this work will be released exclusively in Japan on December 25. In this work, Jejung plays a character who undergoes surgery to erase bad memories and becomes a completely different personality, portraying a rare 'self-centered character' in Korean drama history. The story, filled with memories, past secrets, and mysteries, captivated viewers and ended with great acclaim. Lee Gun (Kim Jejung), a tennis player expected to succeed globally, suffered a wrist injury during a match at the World Junior Championships when he was 13. Although he won the championship, he became unable to return to the sport. Now, while managing his younger brother Shin (Lee Jongwon), who has become a successful tennis player like their older brother, he leads a gloomy and backward-looking life. One day, Gun, who suffered an injury suspected of causing brain damage, is taken to the hospital and undergoes surgery as part of a research experiment by psychiatrist Kyung Juyoung (Jin Seyoung). This surgery is meant to erase 'bad memories' like an eraser, even those he wishes to forget. Upon waking, Gun has transformed into a completely different personality with 'MAX self-esteem, MAX confidence, MAX presence.' Furthermore, strangely, he mistakes Juyoung for his 'first love' and embraces her! Surprised by the sudden error caused by his memory, Juyoung decides to act as Gun's 'first love' and becomes the target of his bold advances. The soundtrack features 6 vocal tracks that colored the drama's scenes, including artists like Vincent Blue, Limit, KIMMUSEUM, and LUCY, who are expanding their activities in Japan, as well as talented idols Jinho and Yein from PENTAGON. The song 'It's Okay,' expressing Gun's feelings, is sung by Jejung himself, maximizing the synergy with the drama. CD 2 includes 51 BGM tracks. The full-color booklet with furigana lyrics and Japanese translations, as well as a manufacturer bonus to be announced later, are also noteworthy. This release was decided urgently due to the drama's popularity in Japan, and reservations have started today. Why not check out the soundtrack along with the drama?
