에디킴 (Eddy Kim) – When Night Falls [Han|Rom|Eng] Lyrics While You Were Sleeping
Transcription
Hey, hang on a second Instead of your name, today I'd like to call you My love my love my love It's strange, I don't mind these things anymore You're slowly changing me I wanted to touch you, but I hid my hands because you're precious Instead I played around with the piano and came up with this melody How's my voice, the beating of my heart, when you hear them Please know that I'm going crazy for you Your messy hair, endless nagging I can love all of that and more because you'll still be beautiful to me My love, my love I've given all my soul You know if we hadn't met, then everything about me would have ended up drunk nights in stuffy smoke How's my voice, the beating of my heart, when you hear them Please know that I'm going crazy for you Your messy hair, endless nagging I can love all of that and more because you'll still be beautiful to me My love, my love You're my last love, last love You're the sweetest girl I've ever met My love, my love I've given all my soul I've given all my soul All my soul

Chatroom Controversy Involving Jung Joon-young
On April 4, 2019, MBC's "Newsdesk" reported that Eddy Kim was one of the members in a group chat where Jung Joon-young shared illicit videos of him having sex with other women without their consent.[15][16] Mystic Entertainment revealed later that day that Eddy Kim was in fact in the chatroom, but denied that he was involved in the filming or spreading of the footage.[17]
On March 6, 2020, all charges against Eddy Kim were dropped by the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office because the singer had only shared a photo he found online (on one occasion), and did not directly film nor distribute the illicit footage of the women. Additionally, the chatroom where he shared the photo was revealed as not the chatroom where Jung Joon Young shared the illicit footage, but just a group chat for hobbies.[18]
