SUNGJIN Check Pattern MV Review
Bringing a theatre of memories, the song presents the beautiful coincidence of one’s life that brought in a person that changed their life. With beautiful beats and meaningful lyrics, Sungjin directs a play in the music video that starts with the meet that almost happens. With a special someone right within one’s reach, he builds up an excitement and eagerness for the two people to finally join hands.
I have to say, this is a beautiful beginning for the artist in his solo journey as he has already won hearts with this masterpiece. The beauty of this song and the music video cannot be described in words while the feelings converted through it are one that makes you fall in love. The message is simple- faith in a coincidence that will become the beginning of a story that will forever live in our hearts.

The MV begins with Sungjin collecting this very special moment from his audience and putting up a play for them where they see this moment in front of them. Two very different people come together due to coincidence, and even if you don’t hold their hand at this moment, fate will bring you together at some point. The two hands that are meant to hold each other will meet again, no matter how long it takes.
The song very beautifully conveys the message that some people are just meant to be in our lives no matter what. And when this message is accompanied by such beautiful lyrics and Sungjin’s enchanting voice, well that is all we need to fall in love with the song. This music video is simply magical and I guess today is the day for such beautiful music to release and make people happy.
Sungjin’s voice is truly marvellous, it is simply breathtaking and like a lullaby that takes you across emotions that will make you smile. And with this being his solo debut, I’m already looking forward to more such magic from him in the future. This song is all I need to go check the rest of the album.
Meanwhile, the music video is another work of art that beautifully plays along with the lyrics of the song. The mix of these two elements has brought out the magic that has me playing this song on repeat. The simple theatre that is filled with emotions highlights the concept and makes it clear for anyone who loses their way in the magic of the lyrics. The colours are just right and the cinematography brings out the perfect portrayal of this song.
Overall, this is a song that will have me hooked for quite a while and has proven to be a beautiful start for the artist on his solo journey.
