Soundtrack Lovers Club

i heard there was an OST club,,,,,, apparently y'all like summoning me sksksksk 

i think my top 3 soundtracks as of rn are (in no particular order, btw)

• Goblin
• The Red Sleeve/The Crowned Clown (tied)
• Sado

i think y'all can see the sageuk/historical fusion trend here but all four of these destroyed me, i will admit—like i said for Sado in the comments section there, it's been almost two months since i first watched it and every time YouTube gives me Sado's Theme in the recommendations i cry like a bitch during the first five seconds. every f*cking time this Pavlovs me into an emotional meltdown and the closest thing i can compare it to is San's Royal Seal theme from TRS that also Pavlovs me into an emotional meltdown when it hits that crescendo 3/4ths of the way through

Alright folks I've got a quetion for you. What is your favorite part of an OST? Do you like the ballads, the opening songs, the ending songs, the instrumentals, etc.?

I usually like instrumentals the most out of all parts of a soundtrack. Sometimes if a ballad is really good or an opening song is awesome I will like those (some memorable ones are coming to mind) but I am most often attracted to the instrumental soundtracks and I most look forward to hearing them when I start a drama. What about you?

So far I've really liked opening songs especially for Japanese and Thai dramas. I'm most attracted to vocals with nice instrumentals behind it. Really tend to enjoy the OSTs that play during emotional scenes as well.

Hey folks. I'm a huge fan of soundtracks and I thought it'd be cool to create some space on here to rant and rave about our favorite OSTs. 

Want to join? Introduce yourself! What's your top three soundtracks, and what do you love about each? 

Hello, shall I join this club? It's been a while since I've last talked on this topic currently

As you can see, I'm a huge crush on Korean-related entertainment; so of course... Kdramas & Kmovies. Instead of that, anime? Yes. Other genres that relate to OST? Alt, indie, neo-soul, R&B, soul, rock ballad, any mixture in between... yeah. Although I'm not an expert on other countries, I've come to appreciate their outcomes, if they fall for some genres/tropes that I usually love

So, for the OST... that's a tough question. If you saw and read my profile; I have a reminisce/nostalgia playlist to recount what I love the most. It's getting complex whenever those OSTs come up. For now, I'm just looking at what I missed (not into watching current dramas, while waiting for Adamas; haha the pun)

So, that would be all from me for now :D

Hi Hi! I think I want to join :)

I like your choices.

I think my #1 soundtrack is probably Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People. Also Secret Love Affair. I just think not only was the music itself memorable, but both of these were so absolutely perfect for their dramas. There's not a single bad piece on these soundtracks. 

I think I tend to gravitate towards instrumentals more, but I have a soft spot for melancholy, heartbreaking or classic ballads. A few that come to mind: The Day from Mr. Sunshine, Wind Breeze from Empress Ki, and Will Be Back from Scarlet Heart Ryeo

I've also been rewatching Secret Garden and the songs are really good. I think my favorite is Only Scratches. With pop osts I definitely tend to be more a fan of the older dramas than recent ones.

Of all the Asian dramas I have watched, the following were among my favorites:

Intro:  女皇 (Neoi wong) sung by Joey Yung  from the China's TV series Empress of China
