  1. I'm 23 수수께끼 (Question)

    I'm 23, I'm a riddle (Question)

  2. 뭐게요 맞혀봐요

    What could it be? Guess it.

  3. I'm 23 틀리지 말기 because

    I'm 23, don't get it wrong because

  4. 몹시 예민해요 맞혀봐

    I'm so sensitive, guess it.

  5. 떨기 스물셋 아가씨 태가 나네

    At twenty-three, a touch of a young lady shows.

  6. 척해도 적당히 믿어줘요

    Even if I pretend to be grown-up, please believe me a little.

  7. 얄미운 스물셋 아직 한참 멀었다

    Annoying at twenty-three, I'm still far from it, you know.

  8. 자란 척해도 대충 속아줘요

    Even if I act underdeveloped, just let it slide.

  9. 난, 그래 확실히 지금이 좋아요

    I, yes, for sure, right now feels good.

  10. 아냐, 아냐 사실은 때려 치고 싶어요

    No, no, in truth, I want to throw it all away.

  11. 알겠어요 나는 사랑이 하고 싶어

    Oh, I got it, I want to love.

  12. 아니 돈이나 많이 벌래 맞혀봐

    No, I want to earn a lot of money, guess it.

  13. 어느 쪽이게? 얼굴만 보면 몰라

    Which is it? You can't tell just by looking at my face.

  14. 속마음과 다른 표정을 짓는 아주 간단하거든

    It's quite simple to show a face that's different from my true feelings.

  15. 어느 쪽이게? 사실은 나도 몰라

    Which is it? To tell the truth, I don't even know.

  16. 애초에 나는 줄의 거짓말도 적이 없거든

    From the beginning, I've never told a single lie.

  17. 여우인 척, 하는 곰인

    Pretending to be a fox, acting like a bear.

  18. 하는 여우 아니면 아예 다른

    A fox acting or something completely different.

  19. 어느 쪽이게? 뭐든 쪽을 골라

    Which is it? Just pick a side.

  20. 색안경 안에 비춰지는 이제 익숙하거든

    What reflects in colored glasses, I'm used to it now.

  21. Check it out

    Check it out.

  22. 겁나는 없어요 엉망으로 굴어도

    I'm scared of nothing, even if things are a mess.

  23. 사람들은 내게 매일 친절해요

    People are kind to me every day.

  24. 인사하는 여자 모퉁이를 돌고도

    Will the woman greeting me still be smiling after she turns the corner?

  25. 아직 웃고 있을까 불안해요

    I'm always anxious about that.

  26. 난, 영원히 아이로 남고 싶어요

    I want to stay a child forever.

  27. 아니, 아니 물기 있는 여자가 될래요

    No, no, I want to be a woman with a touch of moisture.

  28. 정했어요 죽은 듯이 살래요

    Ah, I've decided, I want to live like I'm dead.

  29. 아냐, 뒤집어 볼래 맞혀봐

    No, I want to flip it all around, guess it.

  30. 어느 쪽이게? 얼굴만 보면 몰라

    Which is it? You can't tell just by looking at my face.

  31. 속마음과 다른 표정을 짓는 아주 간단하거든

    It's quite simple to show a face that's different from my true feelings.

  32. 어느 쪽이게? 사실은 나도 몰라

    Which is it? To tell the truth, I don't even know.

  33. 애초에 나는 줄의 거짓말도 적이 없거든

    From the beginning, I've never told a single lie.

  34. 여우인 척, 하는 곰인

    Pretending to be a fox, acting like a bear.

  35. 하는 여우 아니면 아예 다른

    A fox acting or something completely different.

  36. 어느 쪽이게? 뭐든 쪽을 골라

    Which is it? Just pick a side.

  37. 색안경 안에 비춰지는 이제 익숙하거든

    What reflects in colored glasses, I'm used to it now.

  38. 당신 맘에 들고 싶어요

    I want to be liked by you.

  39. 아주 살짝만 얄밉게 해도 돼요?

    Is it okay if I tease just a little?

  40. 당신 맘에 들고 싶어요

    I want to be liked by you.

  41. 자기 머리 꼭대기 위에서 놀아도 돼요? 맞혀봐

    Can I play on top of your head? Guess it.

  42. 어느 쪽이게? 얼굴만 보면 몰라

    Which is it? You can't tell just by looking at my face.

  43. 속마음과 다른 표정을 짓는 아주 간단하거든

    It's quite simple to show a face that's different from my true feelings.

  44. 어느 쪽이게? 사실은 나도 몰라

    Which is it? To tell the truth, I don't even know.

  45. 애초에 나는 줄의 거짓말도 적이 없거든

    From the beginning, I've never told a single lie.

  46. 여우인 척, 하는 곰인

    Pretending to be a fox, acting like a bear.

  47. 하는 여우 아니면 아예 다른

    A fox acting or something completely different.

  48. 어느 쪽이게? 뭐든 쪽을 골라

    Which is it? Just pick a side.

  49. 색안경 안에 비춰지는 이제 익숙하거든

    What reflects in colored glasses, I'm used to it now.
