Six 10CM OSTs that bring the drama scenes back

A vocal track from Part 2 of the OST for ‘Guardian: The Lonely and Great God’, released on December 10, 2016. Remembering the Korean title ‘Nae Nunenman Boyeo’ (only my eyes can see) together with the overseas track name ‘My Eyes’ makes it easy to find again. At about 2 minutes 37 seconds, it is the shortest in this OST selection. For those who remember the drama it is a song that brings back the show’s atmosphere, and for those hearing it for the first time it is a starting point for getting to know 10CM’s earlier OST work. Continue with the songs from ‘Hotel Del Luna’ and ‘Crash Landing on You’ that followed, and compare the impressions the same singer leaves in different productions. It also suits a moment when you want to hear one short song before starting a long playlist.

‘Drawer’ is a song from Part 1 of the OST for ‘Our Beloved Summer’, released on December 7, 2021. Sung by 10CM, it runs about 3 minutes 57 seconds; the Korean title is ‘Seorap’ and the overseas track name is ‘Drawer’. Listen while recalling the faces and scenes of a time gone by, as if taking out old belongings. If you know the drama’s story of youth and reunion, you can meet the show’s lingering feeling again. Even for those who enjoyed it through the music video, this time it becomes a listen that stays with the song without the visuals. If your own memories come to mind first as you follow the familiar melody, it’s fine to focus on that scene for a moment. It is an OST you can choose in the quiet time of wrapping up the day.

‘Lean on Me’ (Korean title ‘Naui Eokkaee Gidaeeoyo’) is a song from Part 2 of the OST for ‘Hotel Del Luna’, released on July 20, 2019. For about 3 minutes 30 seconds you can look back on the show’s lingering feeling through 10CM’s voice. On a day when you want to lean on someone, or want to hold the heart of someone close, begin listening from the scene the title brings to mind. If you have memories of the show, you can overlay the characters and mood of that time. It is a separate song from ‘Junbidoen Eokkae’ (a ready shoulder), the 2026 remake of SORAN’s song, which shares only a similar title. If the recent remake sparked your interest, it is worth exploring the other voice heard in the drama OST as well.

‘But it’s Destiny’, from Part 1 of the OST for ‘Crash Landing on You’, released on December 15, 2019. The Korean title ‘Uyeonin Deut Unmyeong’ means a destiny that seems like coincidence, and sung by 10CM it runs about 3 minutes 51 seconds. As the title suggests, listen while recalling the moment an unexpected encounter becomes a relationship that lasts. If you watched the drama, there is the fun of remembering the music together with the show’s first impression, and if it is your first listen, you can focus on the mood the voice leaves without the scenes. Heard side by side with the ‘Hotel Del Luna’ contribution released the same year, it becomes a listen that compares the music one singer delivers within different stories.

A song from Part 2 of the OST for ‘Queen of Tears’, released on March 16, 2024. Nam Hye-seung and Kim Kyung-hee wrote and composed it, and 10CM sang it. Together with the question in the Korean title, ‘Gojangnangeolkka’ (is something broken?), you can recall the moments when someone keeps occupying your thoughts and even your own heart feels unfamiliar. The English track name is ‘Tell Me It’s Not a Dream’. The same part also has an English version, but in this selection we listen to the main vocal track. If the voice you encountered in the show was a welcome one, lend an ear to the flow of one whole song. At about 3 minutes 55 seconds, heard in sequence with ‘Spring Snow’, released the same year, you can meet love songs from different dramas in one singer’s tone.

‘Spring Snow’ is a song from Part 8 of the OST for ‘Lovely Runner’, released on May 14, 2024. Within a melody where guitar, piano and strings come together, you can feel the mood of a night spent missing a first love. The Korean title is ‘Bomnun’, the English title is ‘Spring Snow’, and the track runs about 3 minutes 21 seconds. For those who loved the scenes in the drama it is a song that revives memories, and for those looking for a love song with a sense of season it becomes a new listen. Listen alongside 10CM’s self-written single ‘My Ultimate First Love’ and compare the impression of a song sung for another production. Not limited to spring, it is good to take out on a night when a past encounter comes to mind.
