SNSD Taeyeon – If music video (Hong Gil Dong OST)

February 5, 2008 by Yein Jee

Fan-made music video for If (만약에) by Taeyeon of pop group Girls’ Generation – an OST for Korean drama Hong Gil Dong, starring Kang Ji-hwan and Sung Yuri etc.

Great song. Not really a fan of Girls’ Generation, but loving Taeyeon’s voice here… it’s subtle and pretty unique, and she hits the high notes pretty well.

Girls’ Generation series – Previous: SNSD Girl Scouts – Next: SNSD New Year
