Her father's funeral was held in Korea in the same day morning while she is preparing this recital. She said to the audience that she dedicates this song to her father in heaven. It was her 20th anniversary to debut internationally as well as in Paris. Must be so difficult for her to sing. but still her voice is like heavenly beautiful..
