비와당신의 이야기 (The Story of You and the Rain)

This was the very first song ever written by Kim Tae-Won when he was sitting in the second grade of high school. This is the story of a teenage boy losing his first love.

This song was released in Boohwal’s 1st album, “Rock Will Never Die,” released in 1986. Naturally, the original singer was Lee Seung-Chul. This song was the second track in the album.

This song is still very, very much, brought by the band in their live stage, usually as the closing song. Sometimes as anchor song. Anyways, it has to be at the end of the live concert ^^

Honestly, I never paid attention to the lyrics. I only like the part where Tae-Won Oppa sings. It just feels so powerful. Maybe because this is his story, that he gets to deliver that feeling in the accuracy and the exactness of the emotion.

Now, the following video is a recent version of this song. And as footnote, I could be found in the video if one looks carefully~and if one knows how I look like, of course (lol). It was shot on April 6th, 2010, and aired on EBS Space TV on May 7th, 2010.

아이가 눈이 오길 바라듯이 (as a child hoping for the snow to come)

비는 너를 그리워 하네~  (the rain says it misses you)

비의 낭만보다는~ 비의 따스함 보다~ (compared to the romanticism of the rain ~ compared to the warmth of the rain)

그날의 애절한 너를 잊지 못함 이기에~ (because I can’t forget the mournful you on that day)

.

당신은 나를 기억 해야 하네~ (you have to remember me)

항상 나를 슬프게 했지~  (you always made me sad)

나의 사랑스럽던 너의 눈가의 비들  (my cherished … rain at the corner of your eyes…)

그날의 애절한 너를 차마 볼수 없었던거야  (I can’t stand seeing the mournful you on that day)

.

*무척이나 울었네~  (I cried a lot)

비에 비 맞으며~  눈에 비 맞으며~  (when the rain falls on the rain~ when when the rain falls on the snow)

비속의 너를~ 희미하게 그리며  (you inside of the rain~ missing you feebly)

우리의 마지막 말을~ 너의 마지막 말을 기억 하네~  (our last words~ I remember your last words)

.

사랑해 사랑해 사랑해 (I love you, I love you, I love you)

사랑해 사랑해 사랑해 (I love you, I love you, I love you)

P.S. I forgot to mention that this song was also reproduced in Boohwal’s 8th album, released in 2002 – that’s when Lee Seung-Cheul returned to Boohwal just for this album. There’s no Boohwal’s album with Jeong Dong-Ha ‘s version of this song.
