Park Bo-gum Takes on Voice Acting and Sings for 'David' – Music Video Released

Actor Park Bo-gum has taken on his first animation voice-acting role in the film 'David,' and has also sung the movie's featured track, 'Follow the Light.'

Lotte Entertainment, the importer and distributor of 'David,' released the music video for 'Follow the Light,' performed by Park Bo-gum, who voices the titular character, on June 30.

The newly released music video holds special significance as it features a version of 'Follow the Light,' one of the film's signature musical numbers, newly completed with Park's vocals.

Taking on the role of the adult 'David,' Park performs the song starting from the scene where the character appears on horseback after growing up. Park's signature clear and soulful singing voice authentically captures the conviction and courage of 'David,' who chooses his own path without losing faith even in the face of fear, leaving a deep impression.

The music video leaves a lasting impact by showing the adult 'David,' who, even after becoming a national hero, seeks out those in the most humble positions first. His actions of reaching out to those in need and rushing to help those in difficulty perfectly illustrate 'David's' growth from a hero into a compassionate leader.

Furthermore, the contrast between his unwavering friendship with 'Jonathan,' the son of 'Saul' and his sworn brother, and King 'Saul,' who is obsessed with his own power and glory, further heightens anticipation for the fates of the characters that will unfold in the film.

In addition, lyrics containing messages of hope and faith, such as "He has the heart of a lion and the soul of a lamb," "He does not back down even when darkness comes," and "Follow the light of hope," symbolically represent the faith, courage, and conviction the film aims to convey, providing a deep resonance. Park's soulful vocals, which soar over the magnificent orchestral sound, deliver an experience akin to watching a musical, raising expectations for his new performance on the big screen.

'David' tells the story of how an ordinary shepherd boy, David, faces his destiny as a king, from the songs of his mother to his confrontation with the giant Goliath, whom the world feared. The film will be available in theaters nationwide starting July 10.
