Lyrics
Released in 1992, this song is one of the representative tracks of early Korean hip-hop, a high-quality masterpiece that blends various elements of synth-pop, dance, and ballad. Contrary to its exciting melody and rhythm, the lyrics are known as a 'Samogok' (a song of maternal longing), composed in memory of the artist's late mother. Hyun Jin-young was the first singer under SM Entertainment, and the song dominated the charts for over two months across all broadcasting stations upon its release. This project involves a remix version of the original, incorporating breakbeats and scratches to suit Hyun Jin-young's background as a former B-boy.
이 곡은 1992년 발표된 한국 초기 힙합 대표 트랙 중 하나로 신스팝, 댄스, 발라드의 다양한 요소가 믹스된 높은 완성도의 명곡입니다. 신나는 멜로디와 리듬과는 상반되게 가사의 내용은 돌아가신 어머니를 그리워하며 만든 사모곡이라고 알려져 있습니다. 현진영은 SM 1호 가수이자 노래 발표 당시 모든 방송사에서 2달이 넘도록 정상을 차지했습니다. 이번 작업은 원곡의 리믹스 버전을 비보이 출신인 현진영에 어울리도록 브레이크비트와 스크래치를 믹스하였습니다.
[Verse 1]
안개빛 조명은
(The misty lights)
흐트러진 내 몸을 감싸고
(Envelop my disheveled body)
술에 취해 비틀거리는
(Staggering, drunk)
나의 모습 이제는 싫어
(I hate the way I look now)
현진영 Came Back Boys (Yeah! We back!)
(현진영 돌아온 아이들 [그래! 우리가 돌아왔어!])
뽀얀 담배 연기
(The white cigarette smoke)
화려한 차림 속에
(In these fancy clothes)
거울로 비쳐오는
(Reflecting in the mirror)
초라한 나의 모습
(Is my shabby appearance)
변화된 생활 속에
(In this changed life)
나만의 너는 너는 너는 너는
(My only you, you, you, you)
잊혀져 가고
(Are being forgotten)
연인들의 열기 속에
(In the heat of lovers)
흔들리는 촛불마저
(Even the flickering candle)
나를 처량하게
(Makes me feel)
만드는 것만 같아
(So miserable)
견딜 수 없어
(I can't stand it)
싸늘한 밤거리를 걷다가
(Walking down the chilly night street)
무거워진 내 발걸음
(My footsteps grew heavy)
흐린 기억 속에 그대
(You in my faded memories)
그대 그대 모습을
(Your image, your image)
사랑하고 싶지만
(I want to love you, but)
(I want you back!)
(네가 돌아오길 원해!)
돌아서 버린 너였기에
(Because you are the one who turned away)
멀어져 버린 너였기에
(Because you are the one who grew distant)
소중한 기억 속으로
(Into the precious memories)
접어들고 싶어
(I want to retreat)
(Break it down now!)
(지금 시작해!)
(Don't stop the rock!)
(이 리듬을 멈추지 마!)
[Verse 2]
흘러가는 시간 속에 (속에)
(In the passing time [time])
나의 모습 찾을 수가 없어 (없어)
(I can't find myself [can't])
흐트러진 나의 마음
(My disheveled heart)
무질서한 공간에서
(In this chaotic space)
슬픔에 찬 나의 마음
(My heart filled with sadness)
이젠 이젠 이젠 이젠 잊고 싶어
(Now, now, now, now I want to forget)
내 곁에 있어줄 수 없나 왜
(Why can't you be by my side?)
내 마음 모두 남겨 버린 채
(While leaving my whole heart behind)
내 곁에서 멀리 떠나가 버린
(The one who left me far behind)
흐린 기억 속의 그대 모습
(Your image in my faded memories)
떠올리고 있네
(I am recalling it)
하 하루 지나고 지나도
(Even as a day, one day passes by)
왜 너를
(Why you)
잊을 수가 없는가
(Can I not forget?)
싸늘한 밤거리를 걷다가
(Walking down the chilly night street)
무거워진 내 발걸음
(My footsteps grew heavy)
흐린 기억 속에 그대
(You in my faded memories)
그대 그대 모습을 사랑하고 싶지만
(I want to love your image, your image, but)
돌아서 버린 너였기에
(Because you are the one who turned away)
멀어져 버린 너였기에
(Because you are the one who grew distant)
소중한 기억 속으로
(Into the precious memories)
접어들고 싶어
(I want to retreat)
흘러가는 시간 속에 (속에)
(In the passing time [time])
나의 모습 찾을 수가 없어 (없어)
(I can't find myself [can't])
흐트러진 나의 마음
(My disheveled heart)
무질서한 공간에서
(In this chaotic space)
슬픔에 찬 나의 마음
(My heart filled with sadness)
이젠 이젠 이젠 이젠 잊고 싶어
(Now, now, now, now I want to forget)
