On The Way — Yakusoku No Basho E
(約束の場所へ)
(To The Promised Place)
This was one of the Japanese songs I found back in 2010, when I’d started looking up music from there, pretty much for the 1st time. (I found the song in 2010, but it was 2009, actually, for when I decided to see what Japan had on offer.) I’ve heard it to death since, but I’ll put it here in case you’ve never listened to it. It’s a pity the resolution isn’t a touch higher, but at least the frame rate’s good. Let me know if I have the year wrong.
YUI
Summer Song
This video was (re)uploaded in 2023, so I had it on that page 1st. But it really should belong here.
DBSK / TVXQ! / Tohoshinki / whatever name they want to go by
Doushite Kimi Wo Suki Ni Natte Shimattan Darou
(どうして君を好きになってしまったんだろう)
(Why Did I Fall In Love With You?)

This is a really good ballad kind of song, done back when the group still had 5 members, unlike just Max & U-Know now. In the music video, this dude sees the woman he was in love with go off and marry somebody else, but he obviously still had feelings for her. There’s also a break in the video for an extra bit, but this isn’t in the song by itself. I put both South Korea & Japanese flags for this, because the group are Korean, but the song’s in Japanese.
The song came out in August, 2008, but the video has a later date, I think.
