Novelist Han Kang's Nobel Prize in Literature, which changed the status of Korean literature, is also creating a buzz in the music industry.

Furthermore, not only Han Kang's playlist but also songs made and sung by Han are receiving great attention.

It's a song by brother and sister duo Akdong Musician, "How can I love the breakup, I love you".

It's a song from the 3rd album 'Sail' released in 2019,
It was greatly loved at the time of release for its lyrical lyrics and melody
.

However, five years after its release, the song is on the back burner in the domestic music charts.

The ranking has been rising every day since the news of Han Kang's Nobel Prize in Literature was announced on the 10th,
This is because this song was included in his playlist released by an author
.

[Han Kang / Nobel Prize winner for Literature (2021 appearance in 'Literature Town' on YouTube): I finished writing the first draft of 'I won't say goodbye' and took a taxi, and this song was playing. Suddenly, the lyrics of the last part came to me in a completely different meaning, and I remember crying without realizing it.]

In the music video video, there were also comments such as "Literature genius and music genius worked together" and "Congratulations on becoming a Nobel Prize winner."

Along with this, interest in other "favorites" by Han Kang, such as Kim Kwang-seok's "My Song" and Deungryeo-gun's "Wolryang Representative Ajeoksim" sung by Oh Hyuk, continued.

In addition, it was once again known that singer Park Hye-won, who uses the activity name "HYNN," made a stage name after reading Han Kang's novel "White."

The song written and composed by Han Kang and sung with singer Lee Ji-sang, "The Story of December," also became a hot topic on YouTube.

In 2007, author Han Kang released a collection of prose, "A Song that only sings for a while," and released 10 songs he made himself, including this song, as an appendix.
