About the Song
《한여름의 크리스마스》 is a remake recorded by OH MY GIRL, reimagining a classic originally released in 1990 by Lee Jonghyun. Included as the second track on the group’s special summer album Listen to My Word, the song was officially released on August 1, 2016, under WM Entertainment. By blending the nostalgic sentiment of the original with OH MY GIRL’s delicate vocals and refreshed arrangement, the remake transforms a winter-tinged memory into a summery, bittersweet reflection on love, time, and emotions that linger long after a season has passed.

Forever with you
The song reflects on a love that lingers like a memory tied to a fleeting season. It captures the quiet sadness of holding onto someone who has faded, where the warmth of the past contrasts with present loneliness. Through images of the sea and a misplaced christmas, it expresses an enduring longing that remains even as time moves on.
