Choi Bo Min’s “Nakaraang Buhay” Is Part Of Beauty Empire OST

Filipinos enjoy it when a foreigner sings a Tagalog song — especially when it’s done well. That is definitely the case with Korean star Choi Bo Min, who just released his debut single under Universal Records last July 4. It is a full-Filipino song entitled “Nakaraang Buhay” — an original song written by Luke April, making it more impressive since it is not just a cover of an old hit.

The song is a heartfelt declaration of unwavering love and emotional commitment. It speaks about a love that endures despite distance, pain, or hardship—one rooted in destiny and past lives. “Wala namang mawawala't magbabago. Nakatakda nang ako at ikaw habang buhay na magkaisa. Tadhana'y tatanda kasama ka. Tukso ma'y dadagsa, kumapit ka. Tayo'y pinagtagpo na sa nakaraang Buhay.”

While Bo Min does a great job singing in Filipino, one will most probably know that it is a foreigner who is singing “Nakaraang Buhay” — which is definitely not a bad thing. In fact, the way that Bo Min pronounces the words is quite charming. There is just something heartwarming about a foreigner singing a song in Filipino, especially when they do a good job.

Choi Bo Min is quickly becoming a household name in the Philippines. Apart from being the endorser for Ever Bilena and BlueWater Day Spa, the Korean celebrity is also part of the Viu-GMA-CreaZion series Beauty Empire, where he plays businessman Alex Jang. His song “Nakaraang Buhay” is part of its soundtrack, so expect for it to accompany many romantic scenes throughout the show.

Fans can look forward to more music releases and exciting projects from Choi Bo Min. Stay updated by following him and Universal Records on all social media platforms. Don’t miss out on streaming “Nakaraang Buhay,” now available on all major streaming platforms.
