CNBLUE Release 'Running,' a Rock Remake of Yoon Sang's Classic, Ahead of Their KSPO DOME Concerts
CNBLUE released the special single 'Running,' a rock remake of Yoon Sang's song, on Nov. 9 KST, FNC Entertainment said, tying it to the band's Feb. 20-21, 2027 concerts at Seoul's KSPO DOME.
CNBLUE have put their own spin on a Korean classic. The band released the special single 'Running' on Nov. 9 KST, a rock remake of Yoon Sang's song of the same name, FNC Entertainment said.
FNC says the new version layers rhythmic guitar and bass over upbeat drums to deliver the original's message of hope with more drive. The credits keep the original writers: lyrics by Park Chang-hak and music by Yoon Sang, with a new arrangement by Go Jin-young. Yonhap notes S.E.S. and Okdal have also covered the song.
The release ties into the band's biggest solo shows yet. CNBLUE will play KSPO DOME in Seoul on Feb. 20-21, 2027, a stage FNC says the band has long dreamed of, and the agency says 'Running' carries the same message of chasing your dreams without stopping.
