눈물이 난다 (도깨비 OST)
거미 (Gummy)
"눈물이 난다" from the *Goblin* soundtrack arrives slowly, like something rising from depth. The production is sparse at the opening — piano, space, the sound of nothing much yet — before building into orchestral fullness that feels inevitable rather than imposed. Gummy's voice enters without announcement and simply takes over, her lower register doing the heaviest lifting in the verses before the melody opens into something that catches the breath. The lyric's title — "Tears Come" — describes the song's function accurately: it creates the emotional conditions for something to break open. The context of the drama, with its themes of immortality, accumulated loss, and love that costs everything, haunts the listening experience whether or not the viewer is familiar. A song about the involuntary nature of grief — not chosen, not controlled, simply arriving.
