윤건 (Yoon Gun) – 너도 그냥 날 놓아주면 돼 (Just Let Me Go)

 

I’m currently typing from a friend’s computer, so apologies for any and all typos! I know there are a couple requests in my queue, and I’ll get to them soon, but here’s something in the meantime. This song keeps getting played at my gym, and while I personally feel it’s terrible as a workout song, it’s quite enjoyable to chill with.

 

 

한국어:

 

반복돼 오늘도 이렇게

힘겨운 스물네 시간

반복돼 오늘도 머리속엔

온통 너라는 사람

 

또 반복해 오늘도 너에게

하지 못한 말

수없이 반복해 나도 모르게

너와 함께 듣던 이 노래

 

마지막까지 날 걱정해주던

니 눈빛 잘 알아

그만큼 우리 미치도록

사랑했잖아

 

늘 안쓰러워하던 그날들이 지나가면

이젠 너도 맘 아플 일 없을 거니까

 

흔들리지마 이젠 나는 괜찮아

너도 이젠 너의 갈길 그대로 그냥 가면 돼

내가 널 놓을 수 있게

너도 그냥 날 놓아주면 돼

아픈 기억들만 내게 두고

제발 가

 

반복돼 오늘도 이렇게

멍청히 하루가

또 반복해 나도 모르게

너와 함께 듣던 이 노래

 

마지막까지 날 위로해주던

니 눈물 잘 알아

그만큼 우리 미치도록 힘들었잖아

 

사랑한 만큼 아프던

그날들이 지나가면

이젠 너도 좋은 기억만 남을 거니까

 

흔들리지마 이젠 나는 괜찮아

너도 이젠 너의 갈길 그대로 그냥 가면 돼

내가 널 놓을 수 있게

너도 그냥 날 놓아주면 돼

좋은 기억들만 가지고

제발 가

 

네가 잘 지냈으면 좋겠어

행복하면 더 좋고

 

흔들리지마 이젠 나는 괜찮아

너도 이젠 너의 갈길 그대로 그냥 가면 돼

내가 널 놓을 수 있게

너도 그냥 날 놓아주면 돼

아픈 기억들만 내게 두고 제발 가

 

제발 가…

 

 

English:

 

Today is more of the same again

The same exhausting 24 hours

It keeps repeating in my head

My thoughts are full of you

 

Today is another repeat

Of the words I couldn’t say to you

This song I used to listen to with you

repeats endlessly without my realizing it

 

You worried about me until the last

I know that look in your eyes well

We loved each other that much –

It drove us crazy, you know

 

When those days that were so hard finally pass,

there will no longer be anything to hurt your heart

 

Don’t waver, I’m okay now

You can go your own way now, too

You can just let go of me

so that I can let go of you, too

Leave your painful memories with me

and please go

 

Today is another repeat

I just spend the day mindlessly

This song I used to listen to with you

repeats again without my realizing it

 

You comforted me until the very end

I know your tears all too well

It was so difficult it made us crazy

 

We hurt as much as we loved

When those days pass by,

you, too, will be left with good memories only

 

Don’t waver, I’m okay now

You can go your own way now, too

You can just let go of me

so that I can let go of you, too

Take only your good memories

and please go

 

I hope you’ve been doing well

It would be even better if you were happy

 

Don’t waver, I’m okay now

You can go your own way now, too

You can just let go of me

so that I can let go of you, too

Leave your painful memories with me

and please go

 

Please go…

    I remember translating it as stay strong and…if you live out your life well…that’d be good if you live happily, all the better. But great interpretation of the Korean.
