ASIDE: I had intended to go thru a few more listens of the album before I am able to gather and share my thoughts and impressions of their latest offerings, in a coherent and thoughtful manner ... then "Fall Again (기억해)" (from 12:00) soared thru my earphones, and my eyes immediately brimmed with tears, and my heart melted ... like I said, I need a few more listens.
