Neorang ibeuryeo goreun ot oneul badabwasseo
Orae geollyeoseo itgo isseonneunde
Got isseul neoui saengire yeyakaenwatdeon
Keopeullingmajeo chwisoreul haesseo

I received the clothes that I picked out to wear with you today,
I had forgotten about it because it took a long time to arrive.
I even canceled the couple ring that I had reserved for your upcoming birthday

Uri heeojineun ge ijen honjaraneun ge
Ajik silgami an naneunde nan eotteokalkka

We’re breaking up,
I still don’t realize that I’m alone now, what should I do?

Neoreul tteonabonael junbihae dulgeol geuraesseo
Narang isseumyeon eotteon bulpyeondo gwaenchaneun julman arasseo
Dageupi ne mameul butjabeuryeo haedo
Imi maeum jeonghaebeorin
Neoui daedabe amu mal mot hadeon
Kkeutkkaji babo gatdeon naega sileo

I should have prepared myself to leave you,
I thought that any discomfort was okay as long as I was with you.
Even though I desperately tried to hold onto your heart,
You had already made up your mind,
And I couldn’t say anything in response to your answer.
I hated how foolish I was until the end.

Meonghani itdagado jeonhwaberi ullimyeon
Ne moksoriga deullil
geot gata eotteokalkka

Even if I’m just staring blankly,
Whenever the phone rings,
I feel like I can hear your voice, what should I do?

Neoreul tteonabonael junbihae dulgeol geuraesseo
Narang isseumyeon eotteon bulpyeondo gwaenchaneun julman arasseo
Dageupi ne mameul butjabeuryeo haedo
Imi maeum jeonghaebeorin
Neoui daedabe amu mal mot hadeon
Kkeutkkaji babo gatdeon naega sileo

I should have prepared myself to leave you,
I thought that any discomfort was okay as long as I was with you.
Even though I desperately tried to hold onto your heart,
You had already made up your mind,
And I couldn’t say anything in response to your answer.
I hated how foolish I was until the end.

Nal bogi silketjiman
Eotteokedeun neol butjapgo sipeunde
Neol doedollil bangbeobi eopseo
Nega eomneun naui haruneun
Amugeotdo japijiga ana da mianhae bogo sipeo

You probably don’t want to see me anymore,
But I still want to hold onto you somehow.
There’s no way to turn back time and get you back,
Without you, my days are empty,
I’m sorry and I want to see you again.

Saranghandaneun mal mani haejul geol geuraesseo
Sarangbadeumyeon yeppeojindaneunde na ttaeme mani yawieosseo
Majimak ganeun gil deryeodajundaedo
Gwaenhi mam yakaejindamyeo
Dwido an bogo seodulleo tteonadeon neoui mameun geudongan eottaesseulkka

I should have said “I love you” more often,
I heard that you become more beautiful when you’re loved, but I just bothered you.
Even when you said you’d take me to the end of the road,
I weakened your heart for no reason,
And left without looking back, how have you been feeling all this time?
