New Music: Yoon Jong Shin (윤종신) - 2011 月刊 尹鍾信 August (digital single)

Yoon Jong Shin released his August monthly digital single entitled " 2011 月刊 尹鍾信 August" on Aug. 3, 2011 where he collaborates with Swings again. The title track, "Love Scanner (Feat. 정석원 & Swings)", is a dance/disco track with nice melody about waiting for someone special to appear and being able to detect them within seconds. The song is not bad, but not really my style. 

About the MV for the song, haha! It's so.... awkward yet funny.
