  • From my point of view, this is Jimin's way of telling us that he's past the painful times of Lie, and promising that he would accept himself more.

    This explains so much what he said during DEAR CLASS OF 2020: “…. Remember, there is someone in Korea who understands you”.

    You were right! He just did a vlive confirming this! I never would have thought of this interpretation.

    I remembered jimin being exhausted at the back stage talking to the staff almost crying.....
    Jimin ah! We’re so sorry
    You don’t have to push yourself just to make us all happy....we are...just seing you rest and healthy no problems at all...
    We all appreciate your work...but remember💖 y’all need to rest like us😊
    While we’re resting we’re watching you....while we’re sleeping we’re dreaming and thinking about you....but you?
    Every of us resting watching you is the cause off your tiredness every sleep sleep of your’s and thought’s are appointments,works,meeting,rehearsal,dancing,singing,
    And smiling😞 we know that smile hides sadness and tiredness......

    just an FYI- Jimin had said that by "I" he meant himself. he wrote this song to himself. here, he is talking to himself.

    My English lyrics translation: Feel free to use this, as long as you credit Minidance :)
    혼자 주저 앉아
    생각만 커져가
    -
    Alone, I flop down and sit
    My thoughts keep amplifying
    언제부터 넌 날 아프게 했던가
    너 조차도 모르잖아
    -
    Since when did you hurt me
    You wouldn't even know yourself
    너도 아프잖아
    'Cause you’re mine
    I just want to blow your mind
    이렇게 넌 또 멀어져만 가는데
    -
    You're hurting too
    'Cause you're mine
    I just want to blow your mind
    Yet you're distancing away again like this
    아무렇지 않은데
    그렇게 말하는데
    사실은 내가
    그게 아닌가 봐
    -
    I am unhinged
    That's what I say but
    In fact I
    May not be so
    I want you to be your light, baby
    You should be your light
    더는 아프지 않게
    네가 웃을 수 있게
    -
    I want you to be your light, baby
    You should be your light
    So that you're not hurt any more
    So that you can smile
    I want you to be your night, baby
    You could be your night
    이 밤이 너에게 솔직할 수 있게
    -
    I want you to be your night, baby
    You could be your night
    So that this night can be frank to you
    이젠 내게 약속해 oh oh
    하루에 몇 번씩 oh oh
    혼자라 느껴도 oh oh
    널 버리지는 마 oh oh
    -
    Now promise to me oh oh
    Many times a day oh oh
    Even if you feel alone oh oh
    Don't abandon yourself oh oh
    여기 잠깐 멈춰서
    새끼 손가락 걸고
    이젠 내게 약속해 oh oh
    -
    Stop here just a moment
    Cross your pinky
    Now promise me oh oh

      Minidance Thank you for explaining the song for us. BTS are too good with words that their songs are better interpreted by intellectual minds like you ( and David Kim & Danny Kim) so fans like me can understand the messages of the songs better. I love BTS and their songs and the more I do when I know where their songs are coming from. So thank you once again.
      Borahae! 💜

      You've made me respect and enjoy this song so much more! It went from "beautiful, but I'm not sure it's translated well or that Jimin knew the exact meaning of the English parts" to "ah yes, frickin' brilliant and perfectly in line with the quality and depth of the rest of the BTS work and themes".
      Did that make sense? 😂
      Thank you!

    When I first heard the song and reading his tweet, this is exactly the same way I interpreted the song as well!!! I'm glad I wasn't alone on my theory haha, especially about the "you should be your night". What a beautiful song!
    I listened to some of other people's interpretations but I think the Korean translations on some of the RUclips lyric videos are wrong (I'm Korean-Canadian). Which is a shame because I think the message is really beautiful and much better than just a love song

    • @Minidance
      @Minidance  5 лет назад +7

      Exactly! I wanted to offer my take as I felt some of the translations out there were a bit off. Thanks for enjoying this.

    • @britneyham7355
      @britneyham7355 5 лет назад +1

      I also interpreted it as knight (fighter) because they don't need anyone to save them like a damsel in distress would need their knight and shine armor. No, a knight can save their self.

    @foxefresh 5 лет назад +26

    Oh such a good explanation and what a wonderful message! When I saw your post, I didn't think there would be much need to explain this song. I knew it was a song he wrote to himself but gifted to his fans, that it wasn't about a secret love affair that his has with another person. But you did an excellent job with the literal translation and explanation. I especially appreciate how you linked it to his song Lie to show us how he has resolved, and continues to resolve, his conflict encouraging us to do the same.
    Ok peoples! We need to get this woman's channel noticed!!!! How can we spread the love farther? :)
