This is awesome. He sounds so much like a (boy)friend being concerned about you. Listening to this is sure to make you feel better :)

친구들이 나 보고 병신이래 / My friends look at me and say I'm an idiot

The fans have been shouting 병신이래 each time he sings this song live since it came out I think. But during the 2007 G.R.E.A.T concert, G-Dragon made good use of it by returning the interaction with fans. I really love how he talks to the fans here. And how Big Bang comes out to rap his song with him. <3

친구[들](이): friends [collective term for a few people. feels like the chinese "们"] (object marking particle)
나: I
보고: look
병신: idiot
이래: be/act like

Unfortunately, the video above was cut off at the end. The following video has full subs for the song and the entire song, but the ment parts are not as well subbed.

Big Bang - Love Song

I'm embedding this fake English lyrics music video for Love Song because it's rather funny. Enjoy.
(Note: regarding the part about Tablo leaving Taeyang in the desert for two days, I think the writer was referring to Tomorrow by Tablo featuring Taeyang, which was also filmed in the desert. In fact, there are at least 4 music videos of Taeyang in the desert, as seen here, http://mupji.tumblr.com/post/52280173124)

I can finally read Top's first verse of Love Song lyrics as fast as he sang it (which was rather slow). Some notable improvement at least. Reading Hangul was such a pain, and still a pain sometimes for the harder characters. I really love Love Song's lyrics though; it goes really well with the music. In a more gloomy mood, tears will fall while reading the translated lyrics and listening to the song.

Here are a few verses translated and broken down when I know what it means.

(TOP)
한 여자가 멀어져가
One woman is becoming disaster
남자는 노래 부르지만
Even though a man is still singing
눈물이 나는걸 이별이란
I’m tearing up at the thought of break up

한: one
여자(가): woman (subject marking particle)
남자(는): man (topic marking particle)
노래: song
눈물(이): tears (subject marking particle)
나(는): I (topic marking particle)
이별: farewell, parting, break up

(GD)
난 두려워 이 세상은 의미 없어
I’m scared, this world is meaningless
달과 별이 있는 너 있는 그 곳에 데려가줘
Take me to where you are, a place with the moon and stars

난 > 나(는): I (topic marking particle)
이: this
세상은: world, society, humanity (topic marking particle)
의미: meaning, significance
없어: doesn't have, doesn't exist
달(과): moon (and)
별(이): stars (subject marking particle)
있: have, exist
너: you
그: that
곳(에): place (location marking particle)

That's probably a lot of new words to learn if you're new to Korean. But I can't leave this post like this without my favourite two lines of this song, sung by GD of cos.

시간아 멈춰 (...)
Time, please stop (...)
바람아 멈춰 (....)
Wind, stop blowing (...)

시간: time
바람: wind

And why do I like this part? cos of the making where he mentions it at 4:41. keke



The first time I watched it, I believed him, that he was appreciating the wind. But now, I think it was prolly both, feeling the breeze which makes it so conducive for a tired idol to sleep. keke. He's cute when he laughs it off.

이름이 뭐야? / What's your name?

G-Dragon tweeted this via yfrog last year. Sounds like he was chewing gum while he filmed this. His caption in his tweet is "꼬리치는고양이.sooooo cute!!" I'm glad he loves cats as much as dogs (Gaho and Jolie), cos I'm, first and foremost, a cat lover before an animal lover. hahaha. Though, the cat didn't look too happy. haha, maybe GD was disturbing its sleep. He asked the cat for its name, before answering it himself with a purr. lmao. cuteness.

꼬리치는고양이: A cat wagging its tail
꼬리: tail
고양이: cat



And here's a song by 4minute titled "What's Your Name?" too. The ending that they used is the polite form. (Well, GD was talking to a cat, and didn't have to be formal/polite.) I had "whacchor name what whacchor name" stuck in my head some time back, but couldn't remember whose song it was. I'm not a huge fan of 4minute as you can tell.

이름이 뭐예요: What's your name?
