>Renowned as a singer-songwriter, he has over 120 hits to his name, holding the domestic record for the highest number of hits. He has also released over 200 albums and recorded approximately 3,000 songs, including over 1,200 self-composed tracks, setting an impressive record.
Quite a career. I remember Na Hoon-A’s music all over Korean TV and in coffee shops in the 90s. He was a legend even back then.
>The news of the iconic singer’s retirement surprised many music fans in February. In a letter, Na said, “Taking one step after another, I’ve walked this path for over half a century. I never realized how much courage it takes to put down the microphone. I want to follow the profound truth behind the simple saying, ‘Leave when the applause is loudest.'”
He 77, so it makes sense. It’s good advice that too many musicians ignore.
