This is the official music video for “벗 (Dear My Friend)” by 필헌 (Feel Heon), published on the GENIE MUSIC channel on 5 October 2025. The title word 벗 is an old, plain Korean noun for a friend, and it sets the tone before a single note plays.

벗 is the older word for friend

Modern Korean has 친구 (chingu) for friend, and it is what you will hear everywhere — in shops, in dramas, in conversation. 벗 (beot) means the same thing but belongs to an older register, closer to written and literary Korean than to daily speech. Nobody introduces a mate as their 벗 at dinner. It survives mainly in poetry, in proverbs, and in song titles, where the archaic weight is the point. Seeing it on a 2025 release tells a Korean listener something about the intended register before they read anything else, much as “comrade” or “kin” would in English.

About this release

The video was published on the GENIE MUSIC channel on 5 October 2025 under the title 필헌 Feel Heon – 벗 Dear My Friend Official Music Video. Genie Music is a Korean distributor and streaming service that also runs one of the country’s larger release channels. The description lists no producer, featured artist or album, and notes the song is available on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music.

Watching from outside Korea

The description states that views on this channel count officially towards Korean chart tallies, so watching here rather than on a re-upload is not a neutral choice. Auto-translated captions, where available, will usually render 벗 simply as “friend”.
