Allkpop | SHINee releases X-mas version of “Haru”


Earlier in the fall, SHINee contributed a track called “Haru” for an omnibus drama of the same name. In celebration of the upcoming Christmas holiday, the boys have delivered a special present for their fans in the form of a wintry remake!

The song was produced by the Korean Tourism Organization as a part of the OST for the omnibus drama. Other stars such as Super Junior, Tiffany and Bobby Kim have brought light to the drama with their participation.

Although SHINee previously released “Haru” on November 5th, the group made a surprise reveal of an ‘X-mas’ version on December 13th for the Christmas season.

The song was re-arranged to fit the holiday season and features an upgrade in terms of quality, making many deem it as the ‘finalized version of Haru OST.’

Representatives have introduced the track as a ‘time-capsule’-like song that will allow fans to treasure the sweet and melodic voices of SHINee in order to feel the joy and warmth every moment of their day.

SHINee stated, “We felt that there were a lot of people going through struggles instead of enjoying their year-end, so we have released ‘Haru (X-mas)’ as our small form of consolation. Please have a SHINee day for the rest of 2010, everyone!”

Fans commented, “SHINee is always ahead in doing good deeds,” “‘Haru (X-mas)’ brightens up my day,” and “This is a good confession song for the Christmas holiday as well.”

Tolling bells and chimes lend that special holiday flavor to the track, so grab a mug a hot chocolate and sit back as “Haru” carries you through the heartwarming season.
