mink

there is this 'new' singer i found, at first i thought she is japanese simply because i have only heard her japanese songs. then after reading up, turns out she is actually korean. her stage name, mink, actually means Made IN Korea. very interesting. the song is called Innocent Blue which i got to know through a japanese movie i watched on a plane (without english subtitles, very champion).

the movie is called 蒼き狼 地果て海尽きるまで The Blue Wolf, To the ends of the earth and sea.(蒼き狼/Aoki-Ookami, literally means Blue Wolf).

just to side step a little, 蒼い means "azure". Azure is actually a color between blue and cyan, commonly referring to bright blue, something like the color of the skies on a bright and clear day.

the movie is actually about Genghis Khan and his land-conquering-life, as we know except it's the japanese version. playing mr.genghis khan is takashi sorimachi/反町隆史, the guy in GTO.

Here's the trailer.
