YesAsia Editorial Description

Since his debut in 1992, Kim Gun Mo has become one of K-pop's biggest names, and certainly biggest seller. His third album, which sold a record 3.3 million copies, not only solidified his status in Korea, it also placed his name in the Guinness Book of World Records. Now back with his eleventh album, Scarecrow, Kim Gun Mo continues to make music that attracts fans of all ages.

Kim's last album was released back in 2005, and the two-year wait has definitely been worth it. Perfectly capturing the appeal of Kim Gun Mo's voice, title song Scarecrow (Track 4) is a soulful number about helplessly watching a lover leave. The music video for this touching track features Park Ji Yoon, who has been away from the entertainment industry since 2004. Other songs on this nine-track album include "Toy" (Track 2), "Words of Reflection" (Track 5), and Singer (Track 9).

디지털 시대에 바치는 아날로그 시대의 사랑과 고백.

2005년 10집 앨범 이후 2년 만에 발매되는 (김건모의 열 한번째 앨범)
이번 앨범의 타이틀은 자신의 이름을 그대로 내건 ‘김건모’. 앨범에 수록된 첫 곡부터 아홉 번째의 마지막 곡까지 모두 김건모 본인의 이야기로 꾸며져 있으며, 한층 성숙해진 김건모의 음색과 음악성이 짙게 스며들어 있어 16년 김건모의 음악 인생을 한 장의 음반으로 만날 수 있다.
순식간에 변하고, 점점 개인주의가 넘쳐나는 디지털 시대에 아직까지도 넉넉하게, 그리고 사람냄새 물씬 풍기며 사람들과 살을 맞대고 자신과 주변 사람들의 사랑과 인생이야기를 듣고 나누고 싶어하는 김건모의 모습은 아직 아날로그 시대에 머물러 있다. 아이러니하지만 이처럼 촌각을 다투는 디지털 시대에도 정겨운 아날로그 시대를 그리워하는 많은 이들이 존재하는 한 김건모의 노래는 듣는 이 가 단 한 사람 뿐 이더라도 계속된다.
촌스럽고 투박하지만 김건모의 ‘디지털 시대에 바치는 아날로그 시대의 사랑과 고백’이 더 따뜻하고 소중한 이유는 바로 그 때문이다.

김건모 11집의 타이틀 곡 ‘ 허수아비 ’
늘 그 자리에서 두 팔 벌려 서있는 허수아비는 그 두 팔로 사랑하는 사람을 안을 수도, 한 곳에 고정되어 있는 다리로 사랑하는 사람을 향해 달려갈 수 없어 그저 바라볼 수 밖에 없는 허수아비의 마음을 사랑하는 이를 떠나 보낸 사람의 마음으로 표현한 ‘허수아비’는 김건모가 지금까지 들려준 발라드 곡 중 가장 회화적이라는 평가를 받고 있다.

또한 가수 박지윤, 이천희 출연 해 제작이 들어가기 전부터 화제가 되었던 ‘허수아비’의 뮤직비디오 는 70년대를 배경으로 한 용이 감독 특유의 색감과 반전이 있는 사랑 이야기로 주목을 받고 있다.

Better The Second Time Around Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Scratch my first review on this album. Listening to it for the second time, the songs began to grow on me. The ballads, as I already mentioned, were amazing. The faster pace songs really show off his unique style. One of his best!

Worth The Wait! Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
First and foremost, the ballads, as always, were amazing! I was a little disappointed in the more up tempo songs but I still enjoyed this album!

Amazing Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Just listen to track 8 and you will see why this is an instant 10. I know that Lee Soo Young did this song on one of her older CD's....don't know if she remade it also or if she was the original creator of the song but KGM's version is simply amazing. His voice completely transforms the song and the orchestral parts are really nice.

Apart from track 8 there are some other awesome songs on the CD like track 5, very subtle and playful. Track 9 which has a great feel. Overall I think that KGM has disconnected from his music the past couple albums. The last CD was good but lots of remakes and not as popular. His last great CD was Vol. 8 which was very popular with the candle on the front. This will hopefully put him near the top of the charts again with just a very unique cd.
