MC 1

Welcome to BoA THE LIVE!
These past two days have been fulfilling for me as a singer. (smile)

I'd like to play golf too, but now I am doing a program called Produce 101 in Korea. Recording takes about 7 hours and I have to stand through out because I'm the MC of the show. So let me sit in this Billboard live haha

It's the last Tokyo concert today but I somehow feel like it's the last of the entire tour. lol but after this I'll have 3 days off so I want to sing a lot haha

I'll sing casually so please freely enjoy the delicious food and good music.

The next song is a new song that has not been released yet but I chose it because I think everyone will probably like it. I thought it would be great if I sang it at this place.

MC 2

I always do covers at BoA THE LIVE and I've always wanted to cover this song. I first listened to it when I was 11 and thought it was such a nice song and have always wanted to sing it. I was too young back then and couldn't read the English title. I recently knew the song title and while I was looking at the cover song list, I decided I wanted to do this song. So I finally get to sing it haha
(pointing at the guests in front) I think it'd be perfect for your generation. haha I mean those who are a lot older than me haha

MC 3

The melody of the cover song is wonderful, right?
But the lyrics are not very nice though haha
In the song, the guy's cheating. like "you were with another girl just before but now you're sleeping by my side". haha
You guys know this song right?
Because the audience in the front pretend not to know the song. lol

MC 4

Actually I've filmed MAKE ME COMPLETE PV. Wanna see, right? But seems like we don't have permission from the filming location. lol
It was so cold. I still haven't seen it either. I can't remember the location but it's somewhere near Shinjuku.
Next is already the last song, but please enjoy it because it is a medley
Actually earlier I was going to say "We've done half the songs (half the set list) already", but I stopped myself. haha

[lyrics hangul, eng translation] 봄비 (Spring Rain)



미치게 너 보고픈 밤에
전화 걸고 싶은 그 이름 밑에
휘갈기듯 덧붙여둔 내 욕이
내 손을 멈추게 해

봄비는 날 간지럽히는데
눈물이 자꾸 나오려는데
아픈 건지 화난 건지 내가
널 또 그리워해

You’re my love, my dream 날 떠나지 마
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
제발, 한 번 돌아봐 줄래
Come back to me
너무 아픈데 멈추지 못해 Cry cry

그래 꺼져, 접어, 맘을 고칠 테니까
그 많은 너의 흔적
다 버려 털어내
내 속을 썩히지

봄비는 다시 나를 재촉해
네가 멀리 간 게 아니라고 해
이런저런 핑계만 대는 내가
널 다시 미워해

You’re my love, my dream 날 떠나지 마
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
제발, 한 번 돌아봐 줄래
Come back to me
너무 아픈데 멈추지 못해 Cry cry

맘이 몇 번을 변하니
내가 미쳐가나 봐
깨진 거울 보며 웃어
낯선 넌 누구야

왜 미워해도
왜 자꾸 보고 싶어져?
왜 사랑해도
영원하지 못해?

You’re my love, my dream 날 떠나지 마
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
제발, 한 번 돌아봐 줄래
Come back to me
너무 아픈데 멈추지 못해 Cry cry

제발, 네 친구라도 될게
Come back to me
너무 아픈데 멈추지 못해 Cry cry

Baby, Come back to me



English Translation by popgasa

On a night I missed you like crazy
I wanted to call you but under the name
I saw the curse words that I poured out like a carburetor
It makes my hand stop
The spring rain tickles me
Tears are about to fall
Am I hurting or am I angry?
I miss you again
You’re my love, my dream, don’t leave me
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
Please, will you turn around just once?
Come back to me
It hurts so much but I can’t stop
Cry cry
Yea, go away, put it away
I’ll fix my heart
All your traces
I’ll brush them all off
It’s rotting my insides
The spring rain urges me
It tells me that you haven’t gone far
I’m giving all these excuses
Making hate you again
You’re my love, my dream, don’t leave me
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
Please, will you turn around just once?
Come back to me
It hurts so much but I can’t stop
Cry cry
How many times is my heart changing?
I think I’m crazy
I’m laughing into a shattered mirror
You’re so unfamiliar, who are you
Even when I hate you
Why do I keep missing you?
Even when I love you
Why can’t it be forever?
You’re my love, my dream, don’t leave me
Can’t you see? We’ll be together
Please, will you turn around just once?
Come back to me
It hurts so much but I can’t stop
Cry cry
Please, I’ll even be your friend
Come back to me
It hurts so much but I can’t stop
Cry cry
Baby, Come back to me
