When I first heard this song, it really brought me to tears. A Korean friend suggested this song to me, but he’s based in my country - and I decided to put my own twist to this song. This is originally by the powerhouse Lee Young-Hyeon and I hope you like my rendition of this song,&quot; she said. </p><p>Watch the video below:</p><div><iframe allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="661" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fLDxWIyNGds" width="1175"></iframe></div><p>Morissette, who performed at the Asia Song Festival for the second time in a row, was the only non-Korean who joined the annual pop music Festival this year. </p>
