Chris Cornell always dabbled in various lyrical styles. While some of his songs leaned toward the abstract, others were deeply personal, bringing a folk-style approach to heavy music. It was an unlikely combination, but one that resonated deeply with fans, who became obsessed with this new angle being explored by Soundgarden.
One of the tracks that was most evident was ‘Black Hole Sun’. While they had had success prior to this song, ‘Black Hole Sun’ was the track that really put the band on the map, as it was a worldwide hit that saw new fans adopt Soundgarden and existing fans welcome in a new side to the band they loved.
“We’d had singles before. But that was easily our biggest hit,” said guitarist Kim Thayil when discussing the track, “That was more singer/songwriterish. Chris went in that direction of singer/songwriter guy, and the band was more accepting because of the success of singer/songwriting stuff as opposed to more guitar-oriented rock. It was more vocal accompaniment rock, some guitar. So, we started utilising a little bit more of that.”
While Cornell had managed to make a name for himself as a prolific songwriter after the release of this track, he was asked on numerous occasions to provide lyrics for different artists. One of his most significant writing roles came in 2006 when he was asked to write the theme for the James Bond movie Casino Royale. In doing so, he created ‘You Know My Name’, an exciting song with lots of double meaning about living life on the edge and gambling.
“Lyrically, it was really easy,” admitted Cornell, “It was the only book where Ian Fleming wrote this vulnerability into the character, not yet this invincible super spy. On one hand, I was unlucky that I was given this film that had a really shitty title to write a song to, not like Thunderbird or Live And Let Die.”
Cornell was happy to have the opportunity to write a James Bond theme and liked the song he created. Equally, however, he doesn’t think that every artist who has the chance to write a James Bond theme should take it. In an interview, he discussed Sam Smith being appointed to write the new Bond theme and rumours that Radiohead was considered for the position. Despite being a fan of the band, Cornell didn’t believe Radiohead had anything to gain from writing a theme.
“I don’t think they should do a Bond theme. They have nothing at all to gain and everything to lose by doing so,” said Cornell discussing the possibility of Radiohead producing a track for the franchise, “They’ve spent years creating and carving out their own corner, so why would they poke their heads out of that world? I do think that were they to do a Bond theme it would be great, but I just can’t see the point in them doing so.”

 was traumatized by the abrupt deaths of multiple students who had crushes on her. Plagued by rumors that she was a “witch,” Mi Jeong decided to quit school and stay cooped up inside at home. Even then, her mysterious “curse” followed her, and her father tragically died after saving her from a venomous snake bite.
In a preview that aired at the end of the episode, it was revealed that it was not Mi Jeong’s idea to leave the village; instead, it turned out that she had been pressured to leave by the other villagers. Most shocking of all, Lee Dong Jin (GOT7’s Jinyoung)’s mother Mi Sook (Jang Hye Jin) was seen standing at the forefront of the group asking Mi Jeong to leave. Later, while lying in a hospital bed, Mi Sook confessed to her son, “I was the one who chased that girl away.”
As Mi Sook was always kind, friendly, and generous to not only her son but also her neighbors, her unexpected and seemingly uncharacteristic involvement in Mi Jeong’s departure raised the question of whether something else had happened in the village after her father’s death.
In newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming third episode, a remorseful Mi Sook brings up the incident with Mi Jeong, which had remained painfully buried in her heart. As she lies in the hospital with Dong Jin by her side, Mi Sook catches her son off guard with her shocking confession—and what she has to say ultimately makes Dong Jin determined to figure out and undo the “curse” that afflicts Mi Jeong.
The drama’s production team teased, “This week, the heartbreaking reason why Mi Jeong had no choice but to leave the village—and why Dong Jin wants so badly to help Mi Jeong return to an ordinary life—will be revealed.”
“Dong Jin will begin to dig into Mi Jeong’s ‘pattern of death’ in earnest,” they continued. “The true mystery will begin starting from Episode 3.”
The third episode of “The Witch” will air on February 22 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
