Bom Yeoreum Gaeul Kyeoul (Korean봄여름가을겨울; lit. Spring Summer Autumn Winter), also known as SSAW, was a jazz-rock fusion band from South Korea.[1]

SSAW debuted in 1988. It had the hit songs, "Bravo, My Life," and "Somebody's Dream."[2] SSAW disbanded on December 28, 2018, following the death of member Tae-gwan.[3]

In 1986, Jong Jin-sim, Tae-kwan Jeon, Jae-ha Yoo, and Ki-ho Jang formed a group named Bom Yeoreum Gaeul Kyeoul (meaning "spring, summer, fall, winter" in Korean) with Kim Hyun-sik.[4]

On December 28, 2018, it was announced that Tae Kwan had died after a 6-year battle with cancer, effectively ending SSAW.[5]
