Music Is Wonderful Hangul lyrics + English translation

아무도 대답할 수 없죠
삶이란 여행에 대해
하루하루 지나기도 벅차죠
말로는 표현할 수 있죠
그리고픈 내 모습에 대해
걱정과 두려움이 앞서 있지만

의미 없는 세상이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful
의미 없는 사람이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful

아름다웠던 시간은 항상 왜 급해
우릴 힘들게 하는 건 또 반복돼
걱정하지들 말고
뻔하게 또 너를 믿어 봐
한 번 Never ever 매번 매일 달라
Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful

어디를 가더라도
또 의미를 찾는다고
항상 생각 안에서
날 자유롭게 만드는 건 나라고
누가 뭐라고 해도 제일 잘 아는 건
결국은 나뿐이라고
가장 어두운 밤은
해가 뜨기 전이라고
조금 기다리면 돼

귀를 닫아버린 소문
입을 막아버린 Magic
타협이란 수갑을 채웠지만
뜻대로 되게 할 순 없죠
자유 속에 피는 꽃이 이제
피어나기 시작한 지금 이 순간

의미 없는 세상이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful
의미 없는 사람이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful
의미 없는 세상이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful
의미 없는 사람이란 존재하지 않죠
Music is wonderful

English Translation

No one can give one answer
About the journey of life
Each day feels overwhelming
I can express it with words
The image of myself that I want
Although worries and fear are ahead of me

There’s no such thing as a meaningless world
Music is wonderful
There’s no such thing as a meaningless person
Music is wonderful

Why do beautiful times always go in a rush?
Why do things that make us struggle keep repeating?
But don’t worry, just trust yourself for once
Never ever
Each day is different
Music is wonderful

Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful

Wherever you go, you will find meaning
Always think that way
The person who makes me free is me
No matter what anyone says
The person who knows best is me
The darkest night comes before the sun rises
Just wait a little

Rumors that shut up ears
Magic that covers mouths
Handcuffed with compromise
But you can’t force things to go your way
Flowers can bloom in freedom
It has just started in this moment

There’s no such thing as a meaningless world
Music is wonderful
There’s no such thing as a meaningless person
Music is wonderful

Music is wonderful
Music is wonderful

There’s no such thing as a meaningless world
Music is wonderful
There’s no such thing as a meaningless person
Music is wonderful

[lyrics hangul, romanized, translation] BoA & Beenzino - No Matter What

No matter what we do
어디에서라도
지구를 한 바퀴 돌아온다 해도
우리 둘만의 light
그 힘을 난 믿어
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

소원을 물어본다면
지키고 싶은 단 하나
허락한다면 영원히
욕심내고 싶은 걸

햇살이 따스하게
내 머리 위를 감싸고
바람은 시원하게
내 두 볼을 스치네
말로는 설명할 수가
없는 복잡한 기분
해답은 너
No matter what

No matter what we do
어디에서라도
지구를 한 바퀴 돌아온다 해도
우리 둘만의 light
그 힘을 난 믿어
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

No matter what

세상을 담은 하늘에
우리를 그려 넣고 싶어
허락한다면 계속
빠져들어 가고파

에메랄드 빛을 닮은
너의 깊은 눈동자
즐거운 대화를 이끄는
너의 입술도
살며시 닿는 촉감의
부드러운 두 손을
기억할래
No matter what

No matter what we do
어디에서라도
지구를 한 바퀴 돌아온다 해도
우리 둘만의 light
그 힘을 난 믿어
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

No matter what it takes
난 너와 함께할 때
비로소 완성되지
나는 너 아니면 안돼
When I see you right there
너가 반이어도 반대
When I see you right
next to me
I feel like I’m flying

I feel like I’m alive
when I’m with you
너랑 다툰 다음엔 난 풀 죽었어
심할 땐 가끔 저울도
들기도 했지만
진심은 아니었어 미안
How about
How about
How bout u
너도 나와 같지?
똑같다고 말해 줘
마치 거울 보듯
No matter what we do
난 너가 아님 미완성같아

No matter what
No matter what
No matter what

사랑이라 하면
Let’s keep it racing
다툼이라 하면
But we gotta stop now
No matter what we do
우리 둘만의 rule
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

No matter what we do
Wherever we are
Even if we have to go around the earth
I believe in the strength of our light
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

If you ask me what’s my wish
There’s only one
If I could, I want to be greedy forever

The sunlight warmly shines on my head
The wind refreshingly blows past my cheeks
I can’t explain this complicated feeling with words
But the answer is you
No matter what

No matter what we do
Wherever we are
Even if we have to go around the earth
I believe in the strength of our light
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

No matter what

I want to draw ourselves in the sky that has the world
If I could, I want to keep falling into you

Your deep eyes are like the emerald light
Your lips continue to move with interesting conversation
Our softly touching hands, I will remember
No matter what

No matter what we do
Wherever we are
Even if we have to go around the earth
I believe in the strength of our light
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

No matter what it takes
When I’m with you, I am complete
I can’t go on without you
When I see you right there
I don’t want just half of you
When I see you right
next to me
I feel like I’m flying

I feel like I’m alive
when I’m with you
The day after we fight, I feel so lifeless
Sometimes when it got serious
I thought about weighing things out
But I didn’t mean to, I’m sorry
How about
How about
How bout u
Do we feel the same?
Tell me it’s the same
As if we’re looking into a mirror
No matter what we do
If it’s not you, I’m incomplete

No matter what
No matter what
No matter what

If this is love
Let’s keep it racing
If it’s an argument
But we gotta stop now
No matter what we do
Our own rule
No matter what we do
No matter what we do

BoA message vdo translation

About NOWNESS
- It's a special one-night only concert that I've spent a lot of time preparing for. Both Korean and Japanese releases are performed.

Differences between JP and KR concerts
- I think the audience enjoy the concert differently. There's a difference in energy level. Also obviously the song languages are different. Anyway, I'm able to have fun at concerts in both countries, thanks to everyone.

15th Anniversary in Japan
- This year is my 15th Anniversary in Japan. I'd like to do a lot of activities and meet a lot of Japanese fans.

DJ TARO blog translation

I was the MC for BoA 15th Anniversary Party〜

BoA 15th Anniversary Party was held at Nicofarre in Roppongi.

Actually 15 years ago, I was also the MC for her debut showcase.

It was at this exact same place but was called velfarre back then.

BoA was only 14 yo and gave off a preppy middle schooler feeling.

But when she started singing, it dawned on me that this kid would become a big star

and then she became oneーー！

37 singles up until now. debut in Korea, Japan and America. Very impressive.

I thought wow she became an adult now! but when I saw her no-make up face during rehearsal, she hasn't changed at all!

She doesn't age one bitーー！sugoi

But her Japanese is good now. Talk part is also fun.

We closed the event celebrating with fans with a cake.

Look forward to BoA-chan activities from now on!

Happy to have another No.1 with BoA,

BoA “Special Live NOWNESS in JAPAN” Teaser
https://youtu.be/mAHz_KSFrGM

BoA's 15th Anniversary Live DVD on sale from yesterday!

「Shout It Out」which I co-wrote and 「lookbook」 which I wrote the lyrics for are both included in the DVD.✨

I love BoA since I was a teenager. I frequently bought her CDs and practiced singing to the songs.

It's still somewhat surreal to me that I am able to work with her now. I'm very happy.

Thanks to song writer friends who work with me, and everyone who gave me the opportunity and support!!

Happy anniversary @boakwon 🎉🎉 .....#boa #nowness #anniversary #live #dvd#kpop #jpop #asia #avex #sm#songwriter #lyricist #memorial

BoA appeared as one of 3 guests who are all 29yo single ladies.
The show concept is to compare how similar/different they are.
30 seems to be deadline for marriage to average Japanese women so everything discussed geared that way.

Here are translations of things BoA said on the show.
Everything she said was funny making everyone LOL.

After hearing that Tanaka Minami, one of the guests, often cries at home because of loneliness.
"Is this show for guests to speak their troubles and be gloomy?"

Minami revealed she started talking to plants when she turned 26.
When asked by MC, BoA went "I hate plants."
"I hate seeing them die" Everyone was shocked and MC corrected her choice of words. Apparently Japanese do not use the word "die" with plants.
"I hate seeing them wither" BoA corrected her speech

About thing she discovered at the age of 26: written as "Realized that XXX is actually XXX" on the board
Turned out it was "Realized that hopeless guy is actually hopeless" (she used the word 'dame-otoko' which can be translated as useless guy, no good guy too)
Everyone was like what was that about???!!
BoA defended herself "But it was the age that women fall for hopeless guys!"
After which, the MC agreed with her that women got wiser in picking their partners as they age toward 30yo.

About women become impatient about finding marriage prospect once they turn 28.
"But when they lost their chance at 28, they would start to think 'oh well it's ok to look around more I guess' at the age of 29-30"
MC "That's what I was about to say (looking at info in his hand). After missing their chance at 28, women are divided into 2 groups: one taking their time in finding partners and the other so pressed in succeeding before 30"

Food topic. Minami has granola and tiger nuts for breakfast. What about BoA?
BoA "Rice"
MC "with?"
BoA "jigae-nabe (hot pot)"
MC "for breakfast??!"
BoA "I eat lots for breakfast. I eat lots for lunch. And eat lots early for dinner"

About aging, "lately I've experienced joint pains here and there"
MC "You can't squeeze in tight jeans anymore then" (Valenti reference)

BoA's most memorable present from her boyfriend(s) is a letter.

Minami shared that she used to exchange diaries with her boyfriend.
MC "What did you do with it after breakup?"
Minami "..."
BoA "Burn it"(with deep voice)
BoA "I don't wanna leave any evidences"
MC "What if it's a ring or necklace"
BoA "Melt it"(still with a deep voice)
Later MC talked about memory card with past pictures in it.
BoA "I'd burn that too"
MC "You have incinerator at home or what?!"

MC "Do you confess when you like someone?"
BoA "I did and was turned down."
MC "Why?"
BoA "I don't know."
MC "Is it because you're a celeb so you look tough"
BoA "I myself don't think I am tough but I got that a lot."

BoA UT Picks for MEN

The theme is「 Simple is the best. 」
Like yes it's simple but that's exactly why it looks stylish.
I picked T-shirts that will make you look good just by wearing them.
Wearing this T-shirt with either jeans or sweatpants, and you will feel 「Ah, I have good taste.」
I think men who look good with simple design are the most stylish. LOL

It's the selection that I myself want to wear too.

May

The Almighty UT that I want you to wear always
I love the gray color and its simple design.
Monotone can go with any outfit. The almighty tee that looks perfect with everything.
I think you can wear this for a long time without getting tired of it, so highly recommended.

June

The Simple

This heart with eyes is so cute.

I ended up picking a simple design once again. 

Since the chest area has a highlight mark、I think it would go well with just a denim jeans

July

Mickey Mouse UT that gives off favorable vibe

This T-shirt is a simple design with cuteness adding in、creating favorable vibe for the wearer. I think it will work well for those who've often been told they looked scary. LOL

August

Soft color that can be worn with sweatpants

This graphic is so cute!

This kind of T-shirt can certainly be matched with denim jeans but as the color is soft, you can also wear it with sweatpants.
Or you can layer it with a shirt or a cardigan. Showing just a glimpse of the graphic print is a good idea.

September

BoA Original UT

When I first heard about this idea, I wanted to go for a unique design. So I checked the pictures on my instagram, and shaked to remix the ones that caught my eyes in the app UTme! using MoMaCOLLAGE feature.

It's exciting to see the results coming out. I tried it so many times! LOL

BoA UT Picks for WOMEN

I would choose things with simple design since young.
Since skinny jeans is a must for me, I'd go for T-shirts that make me look stylish wearing with skinny jeans、and ones that I won't get tired off easily too.
Wearing again and again without getting tired of is a big theme for me.。
So、I've picked ones with simple design but with a little trick here and there, they would easily turn stylish.

California Style. Go well with barefoot

This T-shirt has blue and pink embroidery with fine attention to details.
The first time I saw it, California came to mind. I want to wear this and walk on the beach barefooted. Together with a high-waist denim jeans.
I think it would go well with both jeans and shorts so I can use it for a long time. 

Super girly with flower pattern

Usually I don't choose girlish stuffs, but this T-shirt has such a cute flower pattern.
The length is quite long too. Wearing with a skirt and beige cardigan would go well for a girlish look.

Chic pattern that adults can wear
This is a super cute design. You know the cute pattern that adults are reluctant to wear.

But this has black in it so it can come off as chic looking.
Match this with a black or leather skirt to bring contrast and give off mature look.

Long style that looks cute as a dress too

This one is a bit longer in length.

With my height it can be passed off as a dress.
I think wearing it with a shorts and boots would look stylish as well.
Matching it with a long cardigan and denim jeans would be good as well.

BoA Uniqlo interview

BoA's chosen as a UT Picker! Pay 990yen a month and get a UT (Uniqlo T-shirt brand) hand-picked by BoA delivered to you every month from May to September. The one in September is actually designed by BoA herself using the app UTme!

What will you do if you have a day off?
- I will stay home and watch movies or TV shows. I love staying at home. I go shopping sometimes too but lately I've been shopping online more.

What mood are you in when you want to wear a T-shirt?
- Normally I like simple designs but whenever I want to energize myself, I'll want to wear pop ones. Like when I get tired from so many things to do LOL

Usually do you choose T-shirts carefully or instinctively?
- Instictively. I buy on impulse a lot. I do impulse buy on Uniqlo site a lot. I personally love this brand.

What factor do you use for T-shirt buying decision? design? color? silhouette? texture? price?
- Color and shape. Most of the ones I bought have simple design but chic color.

What do you wear with T-shirts?
- Actually I bought more mens than ladies UT. Since I wear skinny jeans a lot, if both top and bottom are tight, I would look small. So I prefer wearing loose top.
