DELISPICE - chow chow genre: alt rock / language: korean / release date: 1997.08.01

[#ThrowbackThursday]

The first song from the previous “Legendary Stage - Archive K” video we shared was Jannabi’s cover of Delispice’s 2003 song, “Confession | 고백.”  

In 2012, the original song was featured in tvN 드라마(Drama)’s hit drama, “Reply 1997,” giving it massive attention and love nearly ten years after its original release.

The song is a confession of regretting being with someone when they think of someone else, like he missed out on his one true love and isn’t truly happy with the person he’s with.  

The band formed in Hongdae, a popular area in Seoul, back in the 90’s.  They officially debuted in 1997 with their self-titled album, and although members have changed throughout their career, the group never officially disbanded.  Delispice isn’t really active these days, either. 

I couldn’t find the official MV for the song “Confession | 고백,” but here’s a live 2003 performance of Deli Spice performing this song.

In the latest episode of SBS' new show, "Legendary Stage - Archive K," 잔나비 Jannabi and Car the Garden covered two memorable songs by past indie artists, Deli Spice and Sister's Barbershop, respectively.

Jannabi covered Deli Spice's "Confession | 고백," a song they released in 2003 and made popular in 2012 by tvN's drama, "Reply 1997."  

Car the Garden sang a beautiful rendition of Sister's Barbershop's 2008 song, "Most Ordinary Existence," from their album, "Espresso."

The new SBS documentary, "Legendary Stage - Archive K," features artists that have helped pave KPop history. The show looks to close a gap between past artists and today's idols through interviews, stories, and testimonies, while active idols pay homepage to old songs through live covers.
