Celebrating BTS FESTA, JIN covered In front of the fall post office, a song of a well-known Korean rock band vocal Yoon Do Hyun. This song was initially released in 1994 when he debuted as a solo artist.

You should definitely check this out!

Yoon Do Hyun during a radio interview on June 8 was asked, "BTS JIN has covered your song. Can you tell ARMYs about your thoughts on it?"

He answered "I am really proud that a globally popular artist has covered my song. My daughter actually is ARMY. I'm not, but I'm pretty close to it. Now I think I could be an honorable father to my daughter."

In front of the fall post office has a lyrical melody with sentimental lyrics, well defining the emotion of Autumn's loneliness. After 24 years from its release, Yoon Do Hyun sang this song in a TV program called Begin Again when he went live busking in France. Yoon Do Hyun appeared on JTBC's Begin Again in September last year and visited a small city Chamonix Mont Blanc, located at the East South area of France. Here are the lyrics of the song.

I am waiting for you in front of the fall post office
Yellow ginkgo leaves are blown by the wind
I look at them like people passing by
How long will beautiful things last

Like flowers that stood strong under a midsummer shower
Like trees that stood tall under winter's snowstorm
Can everything stand alone
I am waiting for you in front of the fall post office
I thought of you by chance, all day long
I did not realize that evening shadows fell

Thanks to JIN, this great song which was quite unfamiliar to young generations became noticed by people in worldwide countries.
