Korean Singer Seaya on Her Song in the Shantanu–Avneet Starrer Love in Vietnam: Never Thought It Would Travel This Far


Korean
singer
Seaya
did
not
expect
her
latest
Korean
track,
inspired
by
the
mood
and
emotions
of
Love
in
Vietnam,
to
turn
into
a
nationwide
wave.
She
made
the
song
after
watching
the
film
alone
in
her
Seoul
studio,
thinking
it
might
touch
a
few
listeners.
Instead,
the
track
has
gone
viral
across
Korean
social
media,
pulling
thousands
of
young
viewers
toward
the
Indo
Vietnam
romantic
drama
and
building
unexpected
excitement
for
the
film’s
Seoul
premiere
on
December
8.

Seaya
says
she
felt
something
very
personal
when
she
first
watched
the
film.
“The
emotions
stayed
with
me
long
after
it
ended.
There
is
a
warmth
in
the
story
that
does
not
feel
forced.
It
reminded
me
of
the
kind
of
love
people
do
not
talk
about
loudly,
but
they
feel
deeply.”
She
explains
that
the
song
came
from
that
feeling.
“I
was
not
trying
to
make
a
soundtrack.
I
was
trying
to
bottle
an
emotion.
I
wanted
listeners
to
feel
the
same
softness
I
felt.”

Within
hours
of
release,
her
song
began
appearing
in
TikTok
edits,
Instagram
reels
and
YouTube
shorts.
Korean
users
paired
her
voice
with
scenes
of
Shantanu
Maheshwari
and
Avneet
Kaur,
Vietnamese
street
shots
and
slow
romantic
moments
from
the
film.
Seaya
says
she
watched
the
numbers
grow
in
disbelief.
“I
thought
a
few
people
might
discover
the
film
through
the
song.
I
did
not
expect
this
kind
of
reaction.
It
felt
like
the
whole
country
was
suddenly
paying
attention.”

She
speaks
warmly
of
the
cast
and
team
behind
the
film.
“Shantanu
has
a
way
of
expressing
emotion
even
when
he
is
completely
still.
Korean
fans
always
notice
those
quiet
moments,
and
they
love
his
honesty
on
screen.”
She
adds
that
Avneet
has
already
gained
a
following
in
Korea.
“She
has
a
luminous
presence.
There
is
a
sincerity
in
her
eyes
that
Korean
audiences
connect
to.
She
reminds
them
of
the
leads
in
their
comfort
dramas.”
Talking
about
director
Rahhat
Shah
Kazmi,
she
says,
“He
makes
films
with
feeling.
That
is
what
people
here
have
responded
to.”

As
the
Seoul
premiere
approaches,
Seaya
feels
both
proud
and
emotional.
Korean
fans
tag
her
daily
asking
when
and
where
they
can
watch
the
film.
She
says
the
growing
excitement
feels
historic.
“It
is
rare
for
a
romance
from
another
Asian
country
to
create
this
kind
of
buzz
in
Korea
before
release.
Knowing
that
my
song
helped
open
that
door
is
something
I
will
always
be
grateful
for.”

She
plans
to
attend
the
premiere
in
Seoul.
“I
want
to
sit
with
the
audience
and
feel
their
reactions.
I
want
to
see
what
the
film
means
to
them.
It
will
be
a
beautiful
night.”

For
Seaya,
this
moment
represents
a
changing
cultural
landscape.
“Asia
is
opening
its
heart
to
Asia.
We
are
listening
to
each
other’s
music,
watching
each
other’s
films,
sharing
emotions
across
languages.
Love
in
Vietnam
is
part
of
that
movement.”

She
smiles
as
she
reflects
on
the
journey
of
her
song.
“I
just
followed
a
feeling.
If
that
simple
feeling
helped
so
many
people
discover
this
film,
then
I
think
it
was
meant
to
be.”
