Seoul [English translation]

[Verse 1]

In the cold morning air

I secretly open my eyes

This city's harmony, it’s so familiar to me

Though my young days are far away and it's only full of buildings and cars, it's after all, my home

(Seoul, Seoul)

[Verse 2]

Why is your pronunciation the same as ’soul'?

What sort of soul do you hold?

What is it that holds me by your side like so

Since I do not even hold memories of you

I'm now so sick of you

Your constant grey expression

No, no, I'm scared of myself

For I've already become a part of you

[Chorus]

If love and hate is the same word, I love you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I love you soul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you soul (soul)

[Verse 3]

The buses that change landscapes, even when I'm still

And the buildings that are a little of the same, a little different

The scent of life that may or may not be foul and

The cold parks that pretend to be warm

The people that must always wander and

The Han Rivers that must harbour too much pain and those who cannot see the sky for themselves, and those, and those a little too late

[Verse 4]

Friends easily say they'll leave

I look and nod but I cannot smile

I hate to admit it, but

I even love your hatred and disgust

I love the fishy smell of Cheonggyecheon

I love the loneliness of Seonyudo

Even the sigh of some taxi driver

Who says it's a good place to live if you have the money

I love you

[Chorus]

If love and hate is the same word, I love you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I love you soul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you soul (soul)

[Bridge]

If love and hate is the same word, I love you Seoul (I love you Seoul)

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you Seoul (I hate you Seoul)

If love and hate is the same word, I love you soul (I love you soul)

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you soul (soul)

I’m living your

I’m living you

I'm living your

I’m living you

I'm living your (live in you, live in you)

I'm living you (live in you, live in you)

I'm living your (live in you, live in you)

I’m living you (live in you, live in you)

Seoul

[Chorus]

If love and hate is the same word, I love you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you Seoul

If love and hate is the same word, I love you soul

If love and hate is the same word, I hate you soul

[Outro]

Soul (yeah)

I love you Seoul (yeah)

I hate you Seoul (yeah)

I love you soul (yeah)

I hate you soul
