이상하게도 요즘엔 그냥 쉬운 게 좋아
Strangely, these days I just prefer the easy things.
하긴 그래도 여전히 코린 음악은 좋더라
Still, I gotta say, I still love Corin's music.
Hot pink보다 진한 보라색을 더 좋아해
I like a deeper purple more than hot pink.
또 뭐더라 단추 있는 pajamas, lipstick 좀 짓궂은 장난들
What else was there? Pajamas with buttons, mischievous lipstick tricks.
I like it, I'm 25
날 좋아하는 거 알아
I know you like me.
Oh, I got this, I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
I think I’ve started to understand myself a little.
긴 머리보다 반듯이 자른 단발이 좋아
I prefer a neat bob over long hair.
하긴 그래도 좋은 날 부를 땐 참 예뻤더라
Still, those good days really did look beautiful.
오 왜 그럴까 조금 촌스러운 걸 좋아해 hmm
Oh, why is that? I like things a bit outdated, hmm
그림보다 빼곡히 채운 palette 일기 잠들었던 시간들
A palette filled up more densely than a picture, days where I slept through time
I like it, I'm 25
날 미워하는 거 알아
I know you hate me
Oh, I got this, I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
Now I think I understand myself a bit
어려서 모든 게 어려워 잔소리에 매 서러워
When I was young, everything felt tough, I was hurt by nagging
꾸중만 듣던 철부지 애
Just a foolish kid who only heard scolding
겨우 스무고개 넘어 기쁨도 잠시 어머
Barely passing through my twenties, joy was fleeting, oh mom
아프니까 웬 청춘이래
They say, what's youth without pain?
지은아 오빠는 말이야 지금 막 서른인데
Jieun, big brother just turned thirty, you see.
나는 절대로 아니야 근데 막 어른이 돼
I swear I'm not really an adult yet, but I’m becoming one.
아직도 한참 멀었는데
I've still got a long way to go.
너보다 다섯 살 밖에 안 먹었는데
I’m just five years older than you.
스물 위 서른 아래 고맘때 right there
Just above twenty, just below thirty, at this moment right here.
애도 어른도 아닌 나이 때 그저 나일 때
Neither a child nor fully grown, just me, that's my age.
가장 찬란하게 빛이 나
Shining brighter than ever.
어둠이 드리워질 때도 겁내지 마
Don't be afraid when the darkness falls.
너무 아름다워서 꽃잎 활짝 펴서
So beautiful, petals fully bloom.
언제나 사랑받는 아이 you
Always a beloved child, you.
Palette 일기 잠들었던 시간들
Palette diary, the hours I once slept
I like it, I'm 25
날 좋아하는 거 알아
You know I like you
Oh, I got this, I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날 (아직 할 말이 많아)
I think I understand myself a bit now (I still have so much to say)
I like it, I'm 25
날 미워하는 거 알아
You know I don't like you
Oh, I got this, I've truly found
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
I think I understand myself a bit now
