A soundtrack is recorded music made to accompany and synchronize to the images of a motion picture, drama, book, television program, radio program, or video game. In K-Dramas, music and soundtracks are vital as they convey emotions or set the mood for certain scenes.
From the earlier days, which only featured instrumental soundtracks, down to the recent days where OSTs include lyrics that deliver the message in themselves, we cannot deny the influence these OSTs bring not only to the drama but to their viewers and fans.
