Dream High OST: Park Jin Young's If (Do Not Forget) Translated Lyrics

JYP ahjushhi, you still got IT after so many years in the industry! In retrospective, the first time I saw him performing was in Wonder Girls's Nobody MV, where I belated realize two things. One, the dude with a weird face is JYP (sorry sir, but you do have a unique face structure) and two, the song he sang was from his 1998 hit, Honey.
Ahjusshi is best described as a jack of all trades in the k-ent industry, not only does he compose, write lyrics, sing, dance and produce, he can also act (well)! Oh btw he sings in perfect English too. Before listening to If, do check out the MVs below to get a better feel of Park Jin Young the artiste.
Him busting a move in No Love No More. MV is OTP and god knows why a finger gun (no violence TV policy?) but he DANCES. So yeah, check it out (with En translations):


I infinitely enjoyed this better, the original MV for Honey:


And this is the same song performed in Episode 46 of The Sons Of Sol Pharmacy (LOL, it's all about the moves baby!):


And a vid that really shows us his skills; him performing a mash-up of two songs LIVE:


And finally, a release for DH's OST that will represent Taecyeon. I HAD to translate this to find out what Jin Gook is singing to Hye Mi, haha. 
If (Do Not Forget) - Park Jin Young 


Today, I shed tears at the news of you
Though ever so curious, I regretted after hearing
Even after hearing about you, should I say don't tell me?
I don't have the confidence to hear about it

I'm always in tears, that's why I haven't forgotten 
I hate everyone else, that's why I haven't forgotten
After such a long time, I wish to say I'd eventually forget 
But...that clearly isn't the case

Without realizing, I went to the alley we strolled through
The way we were then appeared before my eyes
I shouldn't have passed by this place again
Because I can't go through such heartache once more


I'm always in tears, that's why I haven't forgotten
I hate everyone else, that's why I haven't forgotten
After such a long time, I wish to say I'd eventually forget
But...that clearly isn't the case


I can't forget you, as of now I still love you 
No matter what kind of love, as long as time passes 
It will surely be forgotten, so what does that count as?

I'm always in tears, that's why I haven't forgotten (ohhh)
I hate everyone else, that's why I haven't forgotten (nooo)
After such a long time, I wish to say I'd eventually forget
But...that clearly isn't the case


(No...ohhh) I can't forget you...


Chloe Says: Hmm, it doesn't seem like a direct message from Jin Gook, but still there's nothing like a ballad that gets to you like that.

  2. Thank You For The Translation. I was so curious what was Gook-ah thinking. He really need to step up his game. SD is not making it easy. I am JG-HM shipper, but i can't deny, as of now he truly deserve the girl. I don't blame JG for his action, he is struggling with his own personal problem and HM is his only solace. I hope he will take advantage ASAP when HM still have a lingering feeling for him. I am so hoping Ep.10 Preview Teaser Turn out to be Real. Team JG-HM Fighting.

    P.S Why is every blogger shipping HM-SG. Be it you, Softy, Ockola. Well Javabeans and Girlfiday so far is taking a neutral stand. Well! I know why they are siding SD, Just saying : )

  3. After watching Ep. 9 I am so changing my mind. SB is just too good.

  4. @Anonymous: You're welcome:D I didn't cry but I did get a little teared up - something got into my eye.

    @Emeldy: Well I don't know I don't over analyze but SD - I just like him a little bit more than JG, that's all. I really like the both of them:X, so either way I don't think I'll get too upset, and maybe I'm even unconsciously wishing for an open ending, haha.
