Singer Park Hyo Shin, who lives up to his reputation, is releasing a new song, ‘HERO’.

On the 10th, Park Hyo Shin posted the prelude video for his new single ‘HERO’, which will be released on the 16th at 6 PM through various music sites, through his official SNS. The released video visualizes the message of sacrifice and love contained in the music ‘HERO’ through the relationship between a father and a daughter under the theme of ‘Heroes in Everyday Life’. It delivers a message of comfort and hope to listeners.

As soon as the prelude video begins, a child deeply troubled by something appears, drawing attention. After the child finishes drawing, he holds the drawing in his arms and waits for his father while looking out the window. Then, the father returns home from work late at night and looks at his child who has fallen asleep from exhaustion, which moves the viewers‘ hearts.

In the following scene, the father prepares for work the next day and heads to work in the chilly morning air. When the father put the earphones in, a part of the sound of ‘HERO’ flowed out, and the scene of him looking at his child’s drawing with a note saying “I want to be your Hero” that he wrote himself moved the hearts of those who watched.

In particular, at the end of the video, small and detailed sounds are piled up and Park Hyo Shin‘s emotional voice flows out, doubling the warm atmosphere of the video for The Prelude and raising curiosity about the full version of the new song ‘HERO’.

‘HERO’, which is receiving a lot of attention, is a song that Park Hyo Shin participated in all aspects including singing, writing the lyrics, composing, and arranging. The song was used as the title track for the movie ‘Firefighter’, which was released on the 4th, and is resonating deeply with the audience as it perfectly blends with the movie’s heavy message.

The agency Herbigharo said, “The scheduled release date was postponed several times and we were watching the situation with a heavy heart. Nevertheless, we decided to release this song because we thought it would be better not to delay it any longer if it could deliver even a small amount of comfort and hope to our hearts now.”
