Memories Lyrics Translation – Sunwoojunga

Sunwoojunga writes about the struggle to hide unwanted feelings that refuse to stay hidden. The performer describes trying to move forward while secretly aching to hold on to what is gone. She confesses she is ‘left standing alone in the passing time’ (Jinaganeun sigan soge hollo nama), haunted by permanent traces of what has faded away.

Marhago sipji anatdeon geoseulThe things I never wanted to say,
Sumgiryeo haedo mamcheoreom an dwaeI try to hide them, but my heart won’t obey.
Amureochi aneuncheokhae bwadoEven when I pretend that I’m fine,
Chorahaejineun mam eojjeol su eopseoI can’t help how small and hollow I feel inside.
Heuteojyeo ganeunEverything starts,
Modeun geotdeurito drift and scatter away.
Huimihaejin gieok neomeoeBeyond these fading memories,
