혼자만의 감정에 충실해 왔었던 내가

The me who has been sticking to my own feelings has come

자연스레 사랑을 주입해 노래에 다

To inject love naturally into a song

항상 니 앞에선 장난스럽게 보였지 허세가

I always look playful in front of you, right? Showing off

그치만 지금은

That’s right, but right now

담을게 진심만 오랫동안 지켜오던 내 마음들이 너를 만나 너에게로 My long-held feelings with only the truth bottled inside of them meet you

모두 falling

I’m falling for you

내가 이상적으로 바라왔던 Love Story

The ideal love story I’ve been hoping for

언제나 같이 또 가치있는 시간 보내기

The valuable time we always spend together

이걸 할 수 있는 너가 내 운명이지

The one who can do this; you are my destiny, right?

이런 너와 내가 마주하는 우연있기에 이렇게 꽃피는 사랑

This blooming love made by the coincidence that we face

우린 손 꼽히는 행복 속에 평생 함께하길

I hope we can be together for the rest of our lives with the happiness we have in the palm of our hands

가끔 내 일방적인 사랑에 너가 질린대도

Sometimes you can get tired of my one sided love

불안해 할 수 없어

I can’t be nervous

밀당같은 장난들도

Even with these games of playing hard to get

내 머리는 상당히 단순해도

I may be quite simple

그게 맞지, 좋아해 그

That’s right, I like you,

외에 뭔 생각이 필요해?

What else do you need to think about?

[CHORUS] 밀당은 하지마

Don’t play hard to get

복잡한 사랑은 싫어

I hate complicated love

어차피 너도 나에게

You’re going to have to tell me anyway

관심이 있는걸

Whether you’re interested in me or not

좀 솔직해져봐

Try to be honest with me

어린 나도 다아는걸

The childish me knows everything too

야!

Hey!

너도 내 마음과 같잖아

Your feelings are the same as mine, you know

I love you, l like it, I want you, I take it 이런 솔직한 말을

I love you, l like it, I want you, I take it These honest words

난 해주고 싶은걸

Are everything I want to say

I love you, l like it, I want you, I take it 이런 솔직한 말이

I love you, l like it, I want you, I take it These honest words

너에게만 어울리는걸 Are only meant to you [END OF CHORUS]

Ay Ay Girl, 한 여름의 꿀이 떨어지는 밤 Girl, a night of falling honey* in the middle of summer

* (T/N: a sweet night)

너와 나 마음속의 불이 타오르는날

The day you and I burn in each other’s heart

고백하는 내가 너무 진지했던 거 같아

I think I’m too serious about confessing my feelings to you

But, 사랑이란 원래 다 이런 거 같아

But I think this is how love is supposed to be like

Girl, 그치만 솔직하게

Girl, but honestly

내 방식으로 말할게

I’ll talk to you in my own way

내가 더 잘할게, I'll be your best boy friend

I’ll do much better, I’ll be your best boyfriend

같은 꿀발린 소리는 안할게

I won’t say sweet words

But, 결혼하자 같은 건 그냥 애교로 봐줄래?

But when you say “let’s get married”, can’t you just try to do it in a cute way?

사랑이란 걸 하다

To do something called love,

시간이 지나면

As time goes by,

서로의 단점이 확대되기 마련

Each other's weak sides are bound to be amplified

그래도 또 다른 장점을 마련하는게

And it's hard to come up with another strong side

아마 제일 이상적인 방법

Probably the most ideal way to do that

가끔 너를 향한 내 노래가

Is to listen to my songs about you sometimes.

조금 별로여도

말할래 그 중 내 마음만은 받아달라고

I’ll tell you even if they’re not that good. When that happens, just accept my feelings and

내 머리가 눈치*를 잃었어도

Even if my head had lost its sense*,

* (T/N: 눈치 or Nunchi is a hard concept to translate, but it kind of means social awareness or the ability to read the room, body language, etc)

그럼 어때, 좋아해 그 외에

Well, how about that? I like you

뭔 생각이 필요해?

What else do you need to think about?

[CHORUS]

너와 나 사이 멀어져도

Even if we’re far apart

벌어지진 말자

Let’s not be apart of each other

나와 사랑이 덜어져도

Even if you fall out of love with me,

떨어지진 말자

Let’s not fall apart

너가 좋아하는 것보다 싫어하는것 안하려고 노력할테니깐

I'll try hard not to do what you hate more than what you like, so

너와 나 사이 멀어져도

Even if you and I are far apart

벌어지진 말자

Let’s not be apart of each other

나와 사랑이 덜어져도

Even if you fall out of love with me,

떨어지진 말자

Let’s not fall apart

솔직히 이런 말은 (너에게만 어울리는걸)

To be honest, (you're the only one who deserves these words)

[CHORUS]

7. One Day At A Time (LYRICS)

If you’re a bit scared You’re living on edge It’s hard to escape your worries If you wanna hide You’re losing your mind

You gotta lean on somebody I’ll be that somebody for ya Thousand miles it don’t matter When you’re feeling under pressure Say the word I’ll be there

‘Cause you can reach me, easy, whenever you like Hit me up, DM, tweet, Kakao me, or FaceTime ‘Till we’re free to meet up for a coffee and a smile See you on the other side

Don’t let it get, don’t let it get you down (you down, you down, you down) It’s gonna end, it’s gonna end, no doubt I’m out here holding my breath

I just can’t wait to see you again Oh yeah, it feels like it’s been forever Counting down the days When it’s overwhelming, hold on tight I’ll be here, don’t forget it ‘Cause in life sometimes we need a Helping hand, you’ll be alright Just take it slow, one day at a time

If you think you’re trapped You’re in that box you built yourself, I’ll help you break it And I’m gon’ catch you when you fall or when you’re sinking

And when it gets too much don’t over think it Don’t look back, let it go Just keep calm and carry on, oh Yeah they talk a lot but I ain’t tripping Trying to drown us, keep on swimming What we have, stay in the moment We can’t stop just trynna be honest Put it on lock, we could pull up

Yeah, we can keep up, it’s about love We go up top, no this ain’t luck Yeah they can all try but they never break us ever

When it’s overwhelming, hold on tight I’ll be here, don’t forget it ‘Cause in life sometimes we need a Helping hand, you’ll be alright Just take it slow, one day at a time

Oh you’ve come so far We’re in this together Even though we’re apart Won’t be for long, won’t be for long We face stormy weather

Rain’s pouring but it never lasts Only gets better from here When it’s overwhelming, hold on tight I’ll be here, don’t forget it ‘Cause in life sometimes we need a Helping hand, you’ll be alright Just take it slow, one day at a time

1. Dear Diary: 2016.07.29

29th of July. 

Weather is clear. 

One adult asked me. “What is your dream?” 

As if my dreams explained who I am... 

When I said I had no dream, the look on the adult’s face was like to the child with no name. 

The look was familiar to me.   

Though studying wasn’t much of my taste, I tried my best. 

Parents were fond of joy, when I brought good grades to them. 

Walking on the same path at the same time, I continued my life with no expression. 

Many books tell me, look at the stars in the night sky and become the person who shines bright like those stars. 

But, the stars that I looked up in the sky did not shine at all. 

So, I continue to walk, looking down on the floor. 

Suddenly, a strange thing happened to me. 

As I was walking, a child came up to me and started talking to me. 

“There is nothing on the floor to look at, raise your head up.” 

This child was a bit weird. 

The child looked at me with a bright smile and had a pure glow from its face but, it seems like this child had the same expression on its eyes as me. 

From that moment, we started to hang out a few times.

Turning up the music and dancing together was the most exciting part of our hangouts. 

 For the first time, I actually felt alive. 

 Hearts pounding like it is about to burst out and this tingling feelings coming up from my fingertips started to take over me. 

 Was there a moment when I wanted something this bad? 

 One by one, more children started to say my name.  

The path that I only walked with one another person became a path to many. 

Slowly, the word ‘I’ became ‘ours.’ 

Wandering around with this unknown fever, as we looked above our heads, stars seem to shine bright. 

Today.
