Hey Gaeko, hey Choiza, how are you guys?
It’s Dong Yeop hyung
It was so fun when we used to drink together
Even if I don’t contact you guys a lot
And even if you guys don’t contact me a lot
Let’s not be too upset with each other
It’s not important how often we contact each other

Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
There’s not much that I can promise but
My heart can be at rest if you’re not sick but healthy
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time

Let’s empty our shot glasses
Let’s empty our heavy hearts
The white city night is cold
In the middle of our lives
A light is flowing

Are you well? I’m just okay
I live busily, mindlessly, doing this and that
We used to dream together in the same space
But now I’m busy living and we can only see each other once or twice a year
Our school days that we used to waste become our side dishes
We have nothing but faded romanticism
Through these times, I feel heroic
Like a boy who wears short-sleeves in the winter
There are no benefits to wearing the mask of adulthood
Pretending to be conscious even though we don’t know anything
Tirelessly pulling to catch a big fish called success
Being left out of a crowd makes me most nauseated
Feeling included is the highest level of hypocrisy
A few shots of soju make my insides feel warm
Getting drunk and swaying together right now
Is the strange moment of my life where I find balance in this tightroping life

Let’s empty our shot glasses
Let’s empty our heavy hearts
The white city night is cold
In the middle of our lives
A light is flowing

We mix up soju with beer and pass it around
Though everyone’s sleepy, we want to forget tomorrow and go overboard tonight
Throwing around distracted topics, teasing each other like kids
Tones go up a notch and we get hyper with drunkness
We update each other with our own life stories
We say it’s no fun and that every day is the same
We keep saying that but get scared of change
It’s a fierce competition to accomplish the best of life’s lessons
We feel secured only when we pull ahead of others
So we keep pushing ourselves till the end
Though it’s a hard life, though we try to escape it
Though it may be in the hand of Buddha, though it may be a dark night
Being together is our streetlight, shining on my heart
Friend, let’s be friends for a long time

Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
There’s not much that I can promise but
My heart can be at rest if you’re not sick but healthy
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time
Sometimes, let’s see each other for a long time

Let’s empty our shot glasses
Let’s empty our heavy hearts
The white city night is cold
In the middle of our lives
A light is flowing

When I fall asleep tonight, I won’t even dream
From the moment we wake up tomorrow, we dream
We used to be children, playing in the shallow end
But we have been swept away, not knowing how deep the ocean is
Behind reality, where it became unusual to dream
Why do we fall even though we know we’ll get hurt?
Let’s try to endure through it as we fill our glasses
The jokes are harmless but I’m thankful for tonight for sewing up the holes in my heart
I’ll take the courage and comfort with my steps on this cold cement

Like a phone battery, I run out of shape more and more quickly
It comes faster, a new set of four seasons
Everything is changing but it feels like I’m the only one who is stopped in place
I get drunk more often as a kind of mannerism as if I’m addicted
I’m scared of sobering up
A patron of my life called Limit feels new everyday
But still, it finds a narrative of my life
Your existence becomes destiny in my coincidental life and teaches me

Narration)
When I come on TV sometimes and you guys don’t change the channel and keep watching me, that’s the good stuff
“See you soon, let’s meet often, let’s meet forever”
Rather than those words, let’s just see each other sometimes, for a long time

Let’s empty our shot glasses
Let’s empty our heavy hearts
The white city night is cold
In the middle of our lives
A light is flowing

Hoping to be a bridge between k-pop music & k-pop fans who don't understand the Korean language.
