For anyone who like me wanted to learn about narrator here is what I found from 5 min search:
Meet Lee Moon-sae (이문세), an absolute legend and one of the most foundational pillars of Korean popular music.
If you are unfamiliar with his name, he is widely regarded as the "King of Ballads" and a true cultural icon who shaped the landscape of modern K-pop.
Here is a quick deep dive into who he is and why this narration is such a massive deal:
Before the late 1980s, the Korean music scene was heavily dominated by Trot and traditional folk music. Lee Moon-sae, alongside his legendary late composer Lee Young-hun, revolutionized the industry by introducing sophisticated, pop-ballad melodies fused with deeply poetic lyrics.
His iconic album trilogy *Vol. 3 (1985)*, *Vol. 4 (1987)*, and *Vol. 5 (1988)* sold millions of copies and practically created the modern Korean ballad genre we know today.
Even if you think you don't know his songs, you’ve likely heard younger generations cover them. He is the original artist behind legendary tracks like:
"Girl" (소녀):Beautifully remade by Oh Hyuk for the *Reply 1988* OST.
"Old Love" (옛사랑): A bittersweet masterpiece covered by countless vocalists.
"Sunset Glow" (붉은 노을): A mega-hit famously remade and popularized globally by BIGBANG in 2008.
From 1985 to 1996, Lee Moon-sae was the legendary host of MBC FM’s "Starry Night" (별이 빛나는 밤에), the most influential radio show in South Korean history. For over a decade, his warm, comforting voice kept millions of students company late at night, earning him the affectionate, lifelong title of *"Starry Night's Chairman"* (별밤지기).
Okay great Moon so?
Lee Moon-sae is highly revered as a "musician's musician." (From what I read) He rarely lends his voice or makes features unless the project truly resonates with him.
For him to step in as the narrator for Dino means this track is bound to carry an immense emotional weight, blending a legendary, nostalgic voice with modern artistry.
Get ready for an emotional masterpiece because a collaboration with Lee Moon-sae is nothing short of a historic cultural crossover!
