  • Not Me

    1. Not Me

    Thai Drama - 2021, 14 episodes

    10

    All-time favorite Thai OST. P'Nuchy masterfully balances the OST with Thai, American, and instrumental songs that perfectly elevate each scene's mood. The OST is utilized so beautifully with each scene, I found myself getting chills or tearing up throughout. Each of these tracks, specifically, emoted strong reactions from me. Tears. Goosebumps. Longing. Nostalgia. Sadness. There are many. This series deserves every award. I couldn't even list every track b/c I hit the character limit.

    • "How I'm Fallin In" - Kolby Knickerbocker
    • "He Heard She Has a Way" - Robbin Weinsten -(Instru.) 
    • "Everlast" - Will Van De Crommert
    • "Reflections on the Water"- Spearfisher. Cried my eyes out in this scene.
    • "Blood On The Water" - Michael McQuaid, Harris Owens- this scene tore my heart out.
    • "Finding My Memories" - Sivan Talmor, Yehezkel Raz

    2. Bulgasal: Immortal Souls

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    Favorite KDRAMA OST. It's so moody, so beautifully thought out, and it enhances every single scene. Nothing has ever come close to Goblins OST until this. 

    Favorite Tracks:

    • "I Will Never Die" - Nam Hye Seung, Jeon Jong Hyuk
    • "Father" - Inst. - Kim Soo Hyun
    • "Leave"- Inst.  -4MEN
    • "Grey City" - Inst. - Nam Hye Seung, Jeon Junghoon
  • Goblin

    2nd all-time favorite OST for any KDRAMA (recently beat out by Bulgasal: Immortal Souls).

    • "Round and Round" - Heize, Han Suji - this track was on repeat for weeks while I mourned finishing the series. 
    • "And I'm here" - Kim Kyung Hee
    • "Stay With Me"- Chanyeol, Punch
  • Ashes of Love

    4. Ashes of Love

    "Unsullied" - Mao Buyi - Gorgeous, gorgeous track. His vocals are *chefs kiss*

    "Upwards to the Moon" - Sa Dingding x Zhou Shen. This song, especially listening to it live at the 2020 Mid-Autumn Festival Gala gives me total body goosebumps.  

    This song always evokes very strong emotions in me and brings me right back to the scenes where I initially heard it.
