Kids when you're older you'll find yourself cutting fruits for your mom instead, just like I do now. How time flies so fast. Be nice to your Mom and cherish every moments with her
then one day you'll stop cutting fruit for her, and cherish all the beautiful simple times when she cut fruit for you, when you cut fruit for her, and then one day move on to cutting fruit for your future children :) kok jadi sedih gini ya...wkwkw
This hits home, sometimes you don't realize what you have until it's too late. Cherish your parents and the things they do for you even when at time it might not seem like they love and care about you.
I always have thoughts about the days when they're going to be gone. Really really just tell your parents whats on your mind and ask them about themselves because one day they'll be gone and that shit hurts. This song really does hit home
Not all families can afford having fruits at the table. But this is not just about that. This is about the sacrifices our mom makes. That even though she can't afford to buy fruits, she makes sure there is food. She makes sure to light up mosquito coils every night so we won't get bit. She sometimes not eat because seeing you enjoy the food is enough for her. Maybe yes, you will appreciate this more if you someday become a mom. But you can appreciate it now.
Even as someone who isn’t Asian this hits home. Realizing as you get older that a lot of our parents love language is food. My mom always says that she wouldn’t enjoy cooking as much if she didn’t get to see me and my family’s reactions to the food. It makes me happy to see Asian people in the comments feeling such a connection that I won’t fully understand, I’m happy that you have a song that encapsulates your childhoods 💗
Ugh exactly...my father always asks us how the food is and waits to see our reaction. I think it's so sweet to see and it so cool to see all the native fruits that are in the video (it's quite nostalgic)
@@giselac7600 me too, I never taste or already forget how the taste of food from her masterpiece hand (my auntie said my mother really good at baking). She passed away when I was 5 years old
This song brought me to tears, I was 16 when I lost my mom to Leukemia, and this song sparked lots of memories of me and my mom when she was still alive. So please while they still have time, cherish and show your parents all the love and appreciation you can give. Thank you Jae for this wonderful song
Hi there Tyronn & Gisela, i just want you to know both of you are loved. And even though you are not with them already im sure they are still watching over you. Be strong guys. Hugs 💕
my mom is currently battling cancer. im regretting not finally cherishing these moments until i learned that she might not be here any longer. now, I always have to remind myself to keep this moment in my heart.
My dad didn’t cut fruit but it took me over 10 years to realize he cooked many Chinese meals and dishes and went through hours of making handmade dumplings and putting food on my rice bowl was his was of saying that he cared, he’s not very expressive. This video really shows the love and struggles parents go through behind the scenes even though we can be such pains to them.
This is the new sound of eaJ, then? There’s something very down to earth and wholesome about this song, it’s a tribute to all the mums and parents out there. It’s beautiful, but the ending is somewhat haunting. Cheers, Jae, I’m looking forward to the new record soon

@@ainzargaming9202 u clearly don’t know eaJ he’s been creating his music pieces since years ago? what’s wrong with praising singers for their artwork lol
It really does. Truly a gift and a display of how many great loving mothers there are in this world, that we can all connect through a video of one's mom simply doing daily routines. Shoutouts to all the moms, and thank you to all the people that shared their stories with us.
"Because instead of hugs, kisses, and words of encouragement, my mom loved through bowls of cut-up fruit. A simple bowl of cut fruits is the purest, most common expression of an Asian mom's love" "come eat fruits" is really the way asian moms say their 'iloveyou's. thank you for this song jae TT
@@owassee7285 i dont think that theyre saying that other races of mothers cannot cut fruit. But rather that in asian culture, saying 'i love you' isnt very customary, it is done more so in the love language of 'service'. to do one a service to show your love for them. In this case, a mom cutting their children fruit. Especially since in more traditional asian cultures, fruits weren't something you would eat regularly, instead on occasion for something special. So it adds even more meaning and cultural depth to what eaJ has done here.
this whole comment section is making me cry, Im sure there isnt a better feeling for artists than when they see how many people relate to their song and tell their own stories
A mother’s way of loving differentiates by person to person, but it’s amazing to see how universal the gesture of a mother cutting fruit is, and how something as simple as that can mean so much, especially as you grow older and realize how much you miss having a snack laid on your desk without even noticing it’s there. How that simple gesture reassures that you will always have someone thinking and caring for you. A mother’s way of communicating love
i never really liked eating fruits but my parents always forced me to. “I cut them already, you just have to eat” - never realized it’s their love language. as someone who’s far from family and hasn’t been home for almost 2 years - this song hit me hard. :(
My mom just passed away 2 months ago because of c19, and i truly feel that there is nothing more heartbreaking than losing a mother. I really like fruit that's why she often peels fruit for me and this song reminds me of her. For those of you who still have a mother, pls take good care of her. Show your affection to your mom even with small things. Don't let you regret that you can't show it anymore to your mom someday. Also thankyou jae for this beautiful song
i’m so sorry for your loss - indeed, the most painful thing is for our source of life to be no longer living. i’m not sure if you’ll ever move on, but i hope you can find comfort in that fact; that you’ll always carry a part of her around with you, that you’ll live your life appreciating her and remembering her and loving her, enjoying all the highs and lows of life the way she would have wanted you to ❤️
I’ve met Jae’s mom and she’s actually like the sweetest woman 🥺 I sat behind her at the Boston Day6 concert and after the show she was so nice to all the fans who asked to take selfies with her
The way you can hear the music change just like the song on the radio, and the ambience, the way the mother cut the fruits, it's so aesthetically so beautiful. This is the whole nuance and ambience when mothers all alone in the kitchen, washing dishes, cooking and all. Now, I'm missing my mother even more. She passed away two months ago, and I always hope she's doing okay right up above the clouds, even I know that I am not a good daughter myself. We barely tell each other I love you. My mother knew that I didn't go to class in college, but never ask why and stay silent, and yes... still cut fruit for me. I love you mother. And thank you Jae for this beautiful song. Thank you eaJ for all of this. Your voice alone tell a story. I appreciate you. Love 💛
It just hits different when your mom comes in your room with food. Even though she doesn't do it, the couple of times she has, feels nice. This song will bring a lot of people comfort in so many different ways.
I think this goes for every single Asian kid out there not just for me. It was so difficult for me because I always wanted my parents to verbalize stuff saying I love you or I’m proud of you and I never really understood that until now and now that I realize it that plate of fruit and snacks they made me that was their way of saying I’m proud of you and I love you which it’s kind of sad because I didn’t realize that until now :)
I'm Mexican, but I feel you. I never heard "I love you" growing up, but at my worst moments, my mom would always bring me a bowl of cut fruit to my room. Even when she was tired or was upset with me, she would still bring me fruit. Although I was almost always grateful for it, I wish I was more thoughtful towards her
My mom never had time for cutting fruit. But I realise now that her way of cutting fruit for us was getting up and going to work in the morning and coming home to us no matter how much me and my siblings hated each other. Her world was always us back then, and it's still the same now.
It was my mom's 3rd death anniversary a few days ago. Now I'm crying. I miss her everyday. Thank you for making me remember one of her love languages through this song.
Working two jobs really took a toll on my health. My mom would wake up at around 2-3am to cook a hearty soup for me to have while working and proceed with preparing my lunch for my second work. I remember her saying that it's the only way she can support me
I went downstairs and hugged my mom after listening to this song. I almost cried but I held back the tears because I didn’t want to worry her. I love her so much. She’s been raising me alone for these past 9 years. I’m so grateful to have her in my life. There are bad and good days with you Mummy but I’ll always love you unconditionally ❤️
This hits deep. This is one of my most favorite things my mama does for me. My mum and I used to sit around the dining table and she would cut fruit for me. When I was stressed with work, she would feel helpless and say “I wish I could be there to help you with work but I would only be able to cut fruit for you my dear.” I don’t think she knows how much it would help if she is here to do that for me:,) I haven’t seen my mum in 2 years cause of COVID. Every time I cut fruit, I’d think that it would be nice to eat fruit with her.
today's my mum's birthday and I have to admit, while I'm not super close to her and it's hard to understand her, I do appreciate the things she has done for me and this song brought out those feelings as well. thank you.
Yikes. It's a Wednesday and I'm crying during my lunch break. As you get older, you begin to notice the things your parents did for you that you weren't the most grateful for when you were younger. Makes me wanna go hug my mom .
Hi! He's from a pop rock band from Korea, named Day6. But he made a solo project since last year. Maybe you wanna check one of his single here: ruclips.net/video/i0MrGb1hT2U/видео.html
His name is Park Jaehyung also known as Jae. A guitarist and main vocal from a south korean band called DAY6, currently doing music projects as eaJ and already released many songs on his channel eaJ also did collaborations with Seori, Keshi, DPR IAN. And many more of his great work please check him out! ^^
Towards the end, I thought the shadow was the boy sitting on the stairs instead of his room, but it was the plant instead. So it's just traces of him hanging around the house, around the room, and mom does it out of habit. Don't know if the boy is still there or not, because this kinda reminded me of my mother forgetting that we went to college, and accidentally cooking extra, especially right after we left, because she forgot that we weren't around anymore. Even now, if we're just visiting, and then we leave after a weekend/week, we always get a call that says 'oh I thought you were just going to walk out' or 'oh i thought you were sleeping, before i remembered'. Idk what I'm saying, it's just a lot of feels, and that's a lot from someone who's never felt homesick for their parents. Jae, why.
i'm the only sibling left at home beacuse the rest of my sisters attend uni outside the country, while i go to a local uni, and a few days after my youngest sister left, my mother was saying how she should start cooking less food as its only 3 people in the house and idk but it kinda just made me feel so sad for her...
@@UrwaShoaib yeah, it feels really strange when suddenly the people to cook for goes down, even though it's already known that it's bound to happen :/ Hang in there, enjoy every meal you have with them 🤍
your comment is so heartfelt. I also thought it was the boy on the stairs too, but never thought of it that way. I felt the emotions you are talking about 😭
Thinking that maybe because moms have also learnt from their childhood that that's one of the clearest way their moms show their love. And it's been going on. And on. And on. Until the next generation. Without the need to tell anybody that it's a love language. Sometimes, we forgot about that and took it for granted. Thanks to this song that focuses on this love language. Eaj really does pay attention to meaningful things in life. Thank you
to my mom, and grandmother, and domestic helper (love you ate Rose) that treated my sister and i like her own children. thank you Jae for articulating how blessed and thankful we should be to the love these mothers give us
I listen to this song everytime I cross the line during an argument with my mom. It reminds me how much I should be grateful to her and give her respect no matter how much we disagree with each other.
straight up bursted into tears because I am at college all the way across the globe after a whole year of online class and just realized how much I cherished living with my mom and her making food for me 😭😭😭
I will be moving out next week and I just keep coming back to this every day. I don't even know how many times I've cried listening to this at this point.
wanna run into Jae's mom hug immidietly thanking her for mothering Jae so well till now --and forever. Jae's mom deserves all the love and pray which Jae has accepted from his fans, My Day, and all listener of his music ❤️ JAE, how could you come with a song about cutting fruit but make my whole heart feels so warm 😭❤️ I love your music as always. Thank you for hugging me by bringing this song to the world ❤️
This is the first time i realized, cutting fruit is one of our mom's love language. This will be a reminder for me not to reject my mom's cut fruits ever again 🥺🥺🥺. Thank you eaJ 💕
I listened to this song when I was on train, closed my eyes and listen to this… so beautiful. I could imagine my mom’s smile while giving me the fruits that she cut for me and my siblings. Love you mom, the most beautiful creature in my life ❤️
I want tell Jae that he's the only artist that touches my heart on an other level with his music. Your lyrics and the way you take your time to release your art because what you do is art. It has helped me heal and realize my personal struggles. I have a lot of respect for you.
My mom passed away 2 years ago. There will never ever be enough words to describe how much I miss her. This video hits so close to home that tears had welled up even before she got the fruits to him in the first scene. The irony of life is that the little things matter the most. They always will. Momma, wherever you are, I just want you to know that more than anything, my heart overflows with gratitude for you. Thank you for always bringing me fruit when I did homework. For staying up with me when I did projects for school even though you knew you couldn't help; your company was always enough for me. Thank you for always having snacks and warm food waiting for me when I got home from school. Thank you for always taking care of me when I'm on my period. For hugging me when life felt like a betrayer. For being proud of me, even when I didn't come out on top. For being the embodiment of tenderness and kindness. I yearn for that type of love again.
I don't know why but whenever I see someone who was raised in the arms of a loving mother I feel so much gratitude I'm glad jae was raised in the arms of a loving mother This is a beautiful song and it will hit deep every single one Thank you jae
For some reason, I just started to cry, because I realized how much we can take our mums for granted. Sometimes I don't appreciate my parents enough, and I forget how much they have sacrificed for me. This music video, as nice and simple as it was, reminded me of their love for me.
This hits hard a lot especially reminiscing times with my mom before she passed away. I always remember before she sleeps or going to work, she would always leave a note on the table with a bowl of food covered saying, "Don't forget to re-heat your food - Love, Mama". 1:37 reminds me of my habit of smoking that I picked up just recently when I would step outside her hospital room because I couldn't handle crying in-front of her (Never did for 9 years till the day she passed), I regret that I broke her promise of starting bad vices but I couldn't help it because I needed a stress reliever so I wouldn't go on the brink of a serious mental breakdown. Fly high Ma!
this hit hard, i've been avoiding this song for a few days since it came out bc i dont want to cry thinking about my mom who was always cutting fruits for us... but i'm glad i listened to it now, i miss my mom... she passed away from covid about 2 weeks ago, now i'm cutting fruits for myself so i would feel like she is still here ❤ thank you, eaJ
Feel the warmth around this song, reminds me when my mom ask me to cut an apple for her when she cant do it herself, not realize that this moment is the last time i could cut fruit for her.
Jae, thank you for this song. It brings me back to the days where mom cuts fruit for me but when she got diagnosed with breast cancer, it was my turn to cut fruit for her. Fruit was our way of bonding, our way of talking, and even a way of comfort somehow as we shared everything while having a bowl of fruit. Unfortunately, she lost her battle. I go back to this song almost everyday as it brings me comfort and it reminds me of her, everything in this video. Back then I listened to this song crying, reminiscing the moments mom cut fruit for me. Now when I listen to this song, warm memories of cut fruits reminds me of all beautiful moments my mom and I shared. It's not just a song for me anymore, it's home. Jae, thank you for touching hearts. You may not now how big of an impact your music is, but I want you to know you've made people feel happy & comforted through your music.
Whenever I m studying my mom always passed by and gives me something to eat, anything like snacks....the snacks might not be tasty but she always makes sure she shares it with me:) she doesn't have to,she can have it on her own and give me another piesce but no,she always shares even that small bite with me. It just makes me feel so warm now after I started noticing it🥺 I understand not everyone is fortunate enough to experience these small things...to have parents is very fortunate thing,so appreciate them guys!
I can feel the warmth here. The love that my mom gave to me. How she raised me till now and how much her never ending love. I feel like I wanna hug her and tell her thank you for having me in her life.
I remembered my grandma who passed away this August. Every time me and my family goes to province where she lived, she’d always cook us delicious foods and yes, cut fruits for us as well. I wasn’t that close to her because I grew up in the city and I only see her occasionally. When I heard the news that she died, I felt really sad and regretful because I wasn’t able to spend more time with her and when she was still alive, I just ignored her efforts for me. This song has expressed the feelings I wasn’t able to express to her. I hope that the message of the song reaches her. I love you grandma and may you rest in God’s love.
I don't share the warmest relationship with my mom, we often fight with each other, and we often get misunderstood, but I'll love her regardless. She's the only one I can come home to. Thank you 88rising and eaJ ♡
this comment section reminds me of how many wonderful mothers there are in this world and how much we should cherish those close to us and who love us. such a blessing ❤
These little simple things that our parents, or the ones who made the person you are today, are doing for us are a way for them to express their love. It’s hard sometimes to express how we love them and how we appreciate the things that they are doing for us. So before it’s too late, lets make them feel our love and our gratitude♥️
My mom truly likes this song so much 🥺 She never forgets to prepare the fruit bowl for me when i got home even i'm turning 30 this year. She confirms that's pure love ❤️
Maybe sometimes we forgot abt that, our mom is amazing she does all the things for us sometimes she hurt herself or we hurt her but she never shows it all. Cutting fruit and cooking food for us is her love language ❤ Love u mom :')
This is my whole family. We express our love through food. Taking the time and effort to make a meal for someone else means a lot. My mom started saying I love you in my late 20’s. It was weird for us to say that to each other but now it’s normal.
This touch me... even if back when I was young, Mother couldn't cook much for me. She'd cook the same dish or fries. She's busy working for me. But now I can feel her love. Regardless how busy she was, she actually wanted to show her love through food. Now she's a grandma, and tried so hard to cook more...
Why am i only discovering this? I know jae is an amazing artist but wow. This is new to me. I like how it makes me feel comfortable. This is definitely my kind of music.
Oof… is Mom cutting onions or fruit? This one hits home. You may not think it now but someday all you’ll want is this. Always love and appreciate your mama/loved one. Definitely giving Mom a big hug next time I see her and eating her cut fruit.
even when my mum is mad at me or just busy with all the other things she has to do, she always brings me fruit after lunch nearly everyday. sometimes it’s even like a peace offering if we ever get into arguments. when I was younger she would peel the skin off the mandarins, cut the cherries in half and take out the seed and literally cut up all the fruit that she gave to me to make it easier for me to eat. as I’ve grown up, I realised that I should be showing more gratitude towards her for giving me cut fruit.
Thank you for reminding me that my fave person in the world is my mom. I remembered someone telling me how much my face lit up that one time when I saw my mom standing there waiting for me outside school. As a middle child, I thought that I do not need to be pampered or given attention that much because I know it is hard raising 3 kids. I just believed that I need to be able to do things on my own so I will not be a burden to her. That is why when she does things for me occasionally, I am always grateful. Thank you, inay.
my mom is sitting in front of me cutting watermelon after a huge argument about how she never understands me, and now this song comes up. My tears arent stopping, i am hugging her, no thoughts just us
Aww it's so heartwarming! I'm having a bad relationship with my mother, we always fight and argue, but she always bought me fruits and wash the fruit for me.. she ask me what kind of fruits i want to eat and i realized that's her love language, asking what fruit what i want to eat
This hit me hard. I did something mean to my father. I feel sorry after that, but i can't apologize directly. After my mom passed away, sometimes i blame him, told him that mom died cz of him. I'm oversharing, sorry. I got emotional. This song is rlly good. Eaj never failed to impress me. His voice is rlly soft and deep.
Kids when you're older you'll find yourself cutting fruits for your mom instead, just like I do now. How time flies so fast.
Be nice to your Mom and cherish every moments with her
there was no need to make me cry like that 😭
Glad others feel the same and do the same. Crazy how relatable this was ❤️
im so jealous of people that have a good relationship with their parents ;(
I want to but i cant. I hate corona!!😭😭
then one day you'll stop cutting fruit for her, and cherish all the beautiful simple times when she cut fruit for you, when you cut fruit for her, and then one day move on to cutting fruit for your future children :)
kok jadi sedih gini ya...wkwkw
This hits home, sometimes you don't realize what you have until it's too late. Cherish your parents and the things they do for you even when at time it might not seem like they love and care about you.

Couldn’t say it better… enjoy the days with them… you’ll miss them and you won’t be able to find them anywhere when you need a hug…

This is the whole nuance and ambience when mothers all alone in the kitchen, washing dishes, cooking and all. Now, I'm missing my mother even more. She passed away two months ago, and I always hope she's doing okay right up above the clouds, even I know that I am not a good daughter myself. We barely tell each other I love you. My mother knew that I didn't go to class in college, but never ask why and stay silent, and yes... still cut fruit for me. I love you mother. And thank you Jae for this beautiful song. Thank you eaJ for all of this. Your voice alone tell a story. I appreciate you. Love 💛
❤️
It just hits different when your mom comes in your room with food. Even though she doesn't do it, the couple of times she has, feels nice. This song will bring a lot of people comfort in so many different ways.
exactly
JAE HAS AN ANGEL VOICE AND NOBODY CAN TELL ME THE OTHERWISE.
I think this goes for every single Asian kid out there not just for me. It was so difficult for me because I always wanted my parents to verbalize stuff saying I love you or I’m proud of you and I never really understood that until now and now that I realize it that plate of fruit and snacks they made me that was their way of saying I’m proud of you and I love you which it’s kind of sad because I didn’t realize that until now :)
Jackie this hits home and true
I'm Mexican, but I feel you. I never heard "I love you" growing up, but at my worst moments, my mom would always bring me a bowl of cut fruit to my room. Even when she was tired or was upset with me, she would still bring me fruit. Although I was almost always grateful for it, I wish I was more thoughtful towards her
Ur comment is smooth but like a knife through my heart, thx for remind me
My mom never had time for cutting fruit. But I realise now that her way of cutting fruit for us was getting up and going to work in the morning and coming home to us no matter how much me and my siblings hated each other. Her world was always us back then, and it's still the same now.
fact: every jae's song is masterpiece.
trueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
LOUDER!
periodt
It was my mom's 3rd death anniversary a few days ago. Now I'm crying. I miss her everyday. Thank you for making me remember one of her love languages through this song.
I feel ya, same here my mom passed away 3 years ago too. I don't even know how I stumbled upon this video, but damn it hits hard.
same bestiee, i feel you🤗🥺❤️

exactly today passes 10 months since my mom died and i feel your pain 😞
It's absolutely eaJ's song when it's less than 3 minutes lol
Working two jobs really took a toll on my health. My mom would wake up at around 2-3am to cook a hearty soup for me to have while working and proceed with preparing my lunch for my second work. I remember her saying that it's the only way she can support me
I went downstairs and hugged my mom after listening to this song. I almost cried but I held back the tears because I didn’t want to worry her. I love her so much. She’s been raising me alone for these past 9 years. I’m so grateful to have her in my life. There are bad and good days with you Mummy but I’ll always love you unconditionally ❤️
This hits deep. This is one of my most favorite things my mama does for me.
My mum and I used to sit around the dining table and she would cut fruit for me. When I was stressed with work, she would feel helpless and say “I wish I could be there to help you with work but I would only be able to cut fruit for you my dear.” I don’t think she knows how much it would help if she is here to do that for me:,) I haven’t seen my mum in 2 years cause of COVID. Every time I cut fruit, I’d think that it would be nice to eat fruit with her.
pov: youre laying in bed with your headphones on blast and staring at the ceiling reminiscing of the happy and loving moments you shared with your mom
today's my mum's birthday and I have to admit, while I'm not super close to her and it's hard to understand her, I do appreciate the things she has done for me and this song brought out those feelings as well. thank you.
Yikes. It's a Wednesday and I'm crying during my lunch break. As you get older, you begin to notice the things your parents did for you that you weren't the most grateful for when you were younger. Makes me wanna go hug my mom .
This has got to be the most random and sentimental thing i've ever seen
Never heard of this musician but just maybe I found my new favourite one
ikr he so good, you should hear pacman, pinocchio, and 50 proof!!!
He’s eaJ and he’s also Jae of Day6! You can also check out eaJ’s songs in his YT Channel 💗
He's on kpop group called "Day6". Go check them out, their songs pretty good and heartbreaking T_T
Hi! He's from a pop rock band from Korea, named Day6. But he made a solo project since last year. Maybe you wanna check one of his single here: ruclips.net/video/i0MrGb1hT2U/видео.html
His name is Park Jaehyung also known as Jae. A guitarist and main vocal from a south korean band called DAY6, currently doing music projects as eaJ and already released many songs on his channel eaJ also did collaborations with Seori, Keshi, DPR IAN. And many more of his great work please check him out! ^^
Towards the end, I thought the shadow was the boy sitting on the stairs instead of his room, but it was the plant instead. So it's just traces of him hanging around the house, around the room, and mom does it out of habit. Don't know if the boy is still there or not, because this kinda reminded me of my mother forgetting that we went to college, and accidentally cooking extra, especially right after we left, because she forgot that we weren't around anymore. Even now, if we're just visiting, and then we leave after a weekend/week, we always get a call that says 'oh I thought you were just going to walk out' or 'oh i thought you were sleeping, before i remembered'. Idk what I'm saying, it's just a lot of feels, and that's a lot from someone who's never felt homesick for their parents. Jae, why.
i'm the only sibling left at home beacuse the rest of my sisters attend uni outside the country, while i go to a local uni, and a few days after my youngest sister left, my mother was saying how she should start cooking less food as its only 3 people in the house and idk but it kinda just made me feel so sad for her...
@@UrwaShoaib yeah, it feels really strange when suddenly the people to cook for goes down, even though it's already known that it's bound to happen :/
Hang in there, enjoy every meal you have with them 🤍
your comment is so heartfelt. I also thought it was the boy on the stairs too, but never thought of it that way. I felt the emotions you are talking about 😭
Your comment reminded me that I haven’t been back to my home for almost 2 years. I need to go back.🥲
@@harukasugou9423 i hope you get to visit soon , and if not , video call or something 🌻
Thinking that maybe because moms have also learnt from their childhood that that's one of the clearest way their moms show their love. And it's been going on. And on. And on. Until the next generation. Without the need to tell anybody that it's a love language.
Sometimes, we forgot about that and took it for granted. Thanks to this song that focuses on this love language. Eaj really does pay attention to meaningful things in life. Thank you
to my mom, and grandmother, and domestic helper (love you ate Rose) that treated my sister and i like her own children. thank you Jae for articulating how blessed and thankful we should be to the love these mothers give us
I listen to this song everytime I cross the line during an argument with my mom. It reminds me how much I should be grateful to her and give her respect no matter how much we disagree with each other.
This reminds me of my grandma who cuts fruits DAILY to give to me while i’m having my online classes 🥺 i love her soooo much ♥️
Mama Park must be proud for having eaJ, and eaJ is very proud of his Mama
The fact that the song eaJ - mom cut fruit is more than 3 minutes is a happyness. Lets we tumpengannn
More than 2 😭🙏
IYAA WOI, jarang bgt wkwk. ak lagi minta mama ku masak nasi kuning dulu
eem sorry but i guess it's happiness* , cmiiw 😁
straight up bursted into tears because I am at college all the way across the globe after a whole year of online class and just realized how much I cherished living with my mom and her making food for me 😭😭😭
I will be moving out next week and I just keep coming back to this every day. I don't even know how many times I've cried listening to this at this point.
Dude I completely forgot how short eaJ songs are...
They always hit hard so fast but leave too soon T^T
LIKE A HIT AND RUN! THIS IS A CRIME!!!!!
wanna run into Jae's mom hug immidietly thanking her for mothering Jae so well till now --and forever. Jae's mom deserves all the love and pray which Jae has accepted from his fans, My Day, and all listener of his music ❤️ JAE, how could you come with a song about cutting fruit but make my whole heart feels so warm 😭❤️ I love your music as always. Thank you for hugging me by bringing this song to the world ❤️
This is the first time i realized, cutting fruit is one of our mom's love language. This will be a reminder for me not to reject my mom's cut fruits ever again 🥺🥺🥺. Thank you eaJ 💕
I am suddenly reminded all over again just why Jae was powerful enough to get me into the kpop industry. So blessed to have found you Jae.
This song... why am i crying😢
I listened to this song when I was on train, closed my eyes and listen to this… so beautiful. I could imagine my mom’s smile while giving me the fruits that she cut for me and my siblings. Love you mom, the most beautiful creature in my life ❤️
jae's voice is really soft and comforting plus this song is so meaningful thank you for this masterpiece jae
I want tell Jae that he's the only artist that touches my heart on an other level with his music. Your lyrics and the way you take your time to release your art because what you do is art. It has helped me heal and realize my personal struggles. I have a lot of respect for you.
Thanks to Eaj, I'm heading to the kitchen now to help my mom cooks.
i'm still crying
Who's crying? I'm crying... Jae's voice is so so good. And the song, the lyrics is just wow
My mom passed away 2 years ago. There will never ever be enough words to describe how much I miss her. This video hits so close to home that tears had welled up even before she got the fruits to him in the first scene. The irony of life is that the little things matter the most. They always will. Momma, wherever you are, I just want you to know that more than anything, my heart overflows with gratitude for you. Thank you for always bringing me fruit when I did homework. For staying up with me when I did projects for school even though you knew you couldn't help; your company was always enough for me. Thank you for always having snacks and warm food waiting for me when I got home from school. Thank you for always taking care of me when I'm on my period. For hugging me when life felt like a betrayer. For being proud of me, even when I didn't come out on top. For being the embodiment of tenderness and kindness. I yearn for that type of love again.
Back to this video because i miss my mom 😢
I don't know why but whenever I see someone who was raised in the arms of a loving mother I feel so much gratitude
I'm glad jae was raised in the arms of a loving mother
This is a beautiful song and it will hit deep every single one
Thank you jae
For some reason, I just started to cry, because I realized how much we can take our mums for granted. Sometimes I don't appreciate my parents enough, and I forget how much they have sacrificed for me. This music video, as nice and simple as it was, reminded me of their love for me.
I love the lighting and cinematography here
This hits hard a lot especially reminiscing times with my mom before she passed away. I always remember before she sleeps or going to work, she would always leave a note on the table with a bowl of food covered saying, "Don't forget to re-heat your food - Love, Mama". 1:37 reminds me of my habit of smoking that I picked up just recently when I would step outside her hospital room because I couldn't handle crying in-front of her (Never did for 9 years till the day she passed), I regret that I broke her promise of starting bad vices but I couldn't help it because I needed a stress reliever so I wouldn't go on the brink of a serious mental breakdown. Fly high Ma!
this hit hard, i've been avoiding this song for a few days since it came out bc i dont want to cry thinking about my mom who was always cutting fruits for us... but i'm glad i listened to it now, i miss my mom... she passed away from covid about 2 weeks ago, now i'm cutting fruits for myself so i would feel like she is still here ❤ thank you, eaJ
Yo man you makin me cry damn😢😢
Dont be sad she is in loved in heaven don't be lonely bro
Feel the warmth around this song, reminds me when my mom ask me to cut an apple for her when she cant do it herself, not realize that this moment is the last time i could cut fruit for her.
I'm sobbing. It's like SB19's MAPA😭 Thank you Jae for this amazing song.
I haven't seen my mom for about 7 years now and this song literally makes me miss my mom even more, I'm crying
Jae, thank you for this song.
It brings me back to the days where mom cuts fruit for me but when she got diagnosed with breast cancer, it was my turn to cut fruit for her. Fruit was our way of bonding, our way of talking, and even a way of comfort somehow as we shared everything while having a bowl of fruit. Unfortunately, she lost her battle. I go back to this song almost everyday as it brings me comfort and it reminds me of her, everything in this video. Back then I listened to this song crying, reminiscing the moments mom cut fruit for me. Now when I listen to this song, warm memories of cut fruits reminds me of all beautiful moments my mom and I shared. It's not just a song for me anymore, it's home.
Jae, thank you for touching hearts. You may not now how big of an impact your music is, but I want you to know you've made people feel happy & comforted through your music.
Whenever I m studying my mom always passed by and gives me something to eat, anything like snacks....the snacks might not be tasty but she always makes sure she shares it with me:) she doesn't have to,she can have it on her own and give me another piesce but no,she always shares even that small bite with me. It just makes me feel so warm now after I started noticing it🥺
I understand not everyone is fortunate enough to experience these small things...to have parents is very fortunate thing,so appreciate them guys!
I can feel the warmth here. The love that my mom gave to me. How she raised me till now and how much her never ending love. I feel like I wanna hug her and tell her thank you for having me in her life.
if jae ever comes back on hdigh and say, "now let's rest our weary ears with mom cut fruit by eaJ" will be so Amazing
I remembered my grandma who passed away this August. Every time me and my family goes to province where she lived, she’d always cook us delicious foods and yes, cut fruits for us as well. I wasn’t that close to her because I grew up in the city and I only see her occasionally. When I heard the news that she died, I felt really sad and regretful because I wasn’t able to spend more time with her and when she was still alive, I just ignored her efforts for me.
This song has expressed the feelings I wasn’t able to express to her. I hope that the message of the song reaches her. I love you grandma and may you rest in God’s love.
I don't share the warmest relationship with my mom, we often fight with each other, and we often get misunderstood, but I'll love her regardless. She's the only one I can come home to. Thank you 88rising and eaJ ♡
there's something about jae's voice and his music that tickles a certain part of my brain just right
this comment section reminds me of how many wonderful mothers there are in this world and how much we should cherish those close to us and who love us. such a blessing ❤
recently i’ve been feeling a lot of stress being at home because of lots of reasons, and hearing this son for the first time made me cry
These little simple things that our parents, or the ones who made the person you are today, are doing for us are a way for them to express their love. It’s hard sometimes to express how we love them and how we appreciate the things that they are doing for us. So before it’s too late, lets make them feel our love and our gratitude♥️
My mom truly likes this song so much 🥺
She never forgets to prepare the fruit bowl for me when i got home even i'm turning 30 this year. She confirms that's pure love ❤️
Lost my mom back in 2011 and this gave me a rush of emotions. I would do anything to have her back even just for a day.
Maybe sometimes we forgot abt that, our mom is amazing she does all the things for us sometimes she hurt herself or we hurt her but she never shows it all. Cutting fruit and cooking food for us is her love language ❤
Love u mom :')
I miss my Mom and Dad. How they prepare meals for us. This made me cry.
now I realize how much my mom loves me
Duh those fruits 🤤
bang koii
Bang koi 😂
Jae's voice,the lyrics,the mv everything are just so beautiful,this is so beautiful,masterpiece🥺💖
This is my whole family. We express our love through food. Taking the time and effort to make a meal for someone else means a lot. My mom started saying I love you in my late 20’s. It was weird for us to say that to each other but now it’s normal.
this made me cry. thank u to all loving moms out there
This is beautifully done, a song everyone can relate to but at the same time interpret, once again I’m glad I stan the right people. ❤️
A true artist is able to share emotions you never experienced
This touch me... even if back when I was young, Mother couldn't cook much for me. She'd cook the same dish or fries. She's busy working for me. But now I can feel her love. Regardless how busy she was, she actually wanted to show her love through food. Now she's a grandma, and tried so hard to cook more...
Why am i only discovering this? I know jae is an amazing artist but wow. This is new to me. I like how it makes me feel comfortable. This is definitely my kind of music.
I legit started to tear up😭😭
Oof… is Mom cutting onions or fruit? This one hits home. You may not think it now but someday all you’ll want is this. Always love and appreciate your mama/loved one. Definitely giving Mom a big hug next time I see her and eating her cut fruit.
even when my mum is mad at me or just busy with all the other things she has to do, she always brings me fruit after lunch nearly everyday. sometimes it’s even like a peace offering if we ever get into arguments. when I was younger she would peel the skin off the mandarins, cut the cherries in half and take out the seed and literally cut up all the fruit that she gave to me to make it easier for me to eat. as I’ve grown up, I realised that I should be showing more gratitude towards her for giving me cut fruit.
Thank you for reminding me that my fave person in the world is my mom. I remembered someone telling me how much my face lit up that one time when I saw my mom standing there waiting for me outside school. As a middle child, I thought that I do not need to be pampered or given attention that much because I know it is hard raising 3 kids. I just believed that I need to be able to do things on my own so I will not be a burden to her. That is why when she does things for me occasionally, I am always grateful. Thank you, inay.
곡이 너무 따뜻하고 진짜 사랑이 느껴지네요.. 들으면 들을수록..
my mom is sitting in front of me cutting watermelon after a huge argument about how she never understands me, and now this song comes up. My tears arent stopping, i am hugging her, no thoughts just us
Aww it's so heartwarming! I'm having a bad relationship with my mother, we always fight and argue, but she always bought me fruits and wash the fruit for me.. she ask me what kind of fruits i want to eat and i realized that's her love language, asking what fruit what i want to eat
Eaj really knows how to touch people's heart.. I'm crying T_T
This hit me hard.
I did something mean to my father.
I feel sorry after that, but i can't apologize directly.
After my mom passed away, sometimes i blame him, told him that mom died cz of him.
I'm oversharing, sorry. I got emotional.
This song is rlly good. Eaj never failed to impress me. His voice is rlly soft and deep.
一直在回望eaj的所有 在過自己的日子時忘了那個帶給過自己無限力量的男孩，真希望他不要長大，不要經歷難過、低潮，永遠唱著熱血青春煩惱，帶著炙熱感染的嗓音多年後再聽蒙上了失意，聽著聽著眼眶瀰漫濕氣
Please this masterpiece must be available in spotify!!! I begging!!
