Song from the hidden movie1/5/2024 The work is performed by the Hyosan High School choir and due to the difficult nature of the piece, it at first seems an odd choice for a school choir repertoire. One of the first pieces of music heard in the zombie series is Gregorio Allegri’s ‘Miserere mei, Deus’. Read more: What are the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne, and what does Auld Lang Syne actually mean? Miserere mei, Deus The use of ‘Auld Lang Syne’ means the creators were foreshadowing their friendship’s fate and slyly giving Cheong-san and Gyeong-su a chance to reminisce and say farewell with this subtle musical message. The show’s creators tug at the audience’s heart strings with this choice of song, because less than five minutes after the wistful whistling takes place, Gyeong-su is betrayed by a fellow classmate and sadly transforms into a zombie. The lyrics of ‘Auld Lang Syne’ are reminiscent of good times among friends, and as well as New Year, the tune is also sung at events like funerals, and graduations, as a farewell song. While Cheong-san and the other students wait for their friend to finish his 30-minute quarantine – to ensure he won’t turn into a zombie – Gyeong-su can see Cheong-san begin to whistle through a window in the soundproof door, and knowing what his friend is whistling, joins in. They can’t hear each other as Gyeong-su has been locked in a broadcasting studio with a suspected zombie bite. So it’s particularly poignant that in episode three during a scene where Cheong-san and Gyeong-su are separated by a soundproof door, the two whistle ‘Auld Lang Syne’ to each other. In other parts of the world, ‘Auld Lang Syne’ is sung on the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve every year, and it’s associated with not forgetting old friends.
