[KEN’s greeting story]
Meeting.. Happiness..
Separation.. sadness..
It's okay...
As if our meeting was not forever
Separation is not forever...
1. To watch for at least 10 more minutes
It contains the feelings of love and separation, the excitement and sadness that everyone has experienced at least once, in one song.
