[Korean:]
Is this love
Is this love
Sometimes I know
Sometimes I don’t
이 다음 가사 음
뭐라고 쓸까 음
너무 많은 말이 날 돌지만
내 마음 같은 게 하나 없어
그냥 느껴져
해가 뜨고 나면 꼭 달이 뜨듯이
손톱이 자라듯, 겨울이 오면
나무들이 한 올 한 올 옷을 벗듯이
넌 나의 기억을 추억으로 바꿀 사람
사람을 사랑으로 만들 사람
널 알기 전
내 심장은 온통 직선뿐이던 거야
난 그냥 사람, 사람, 사람
넌 나의 모든 모서릴 잠식
나를 사랑, 사랑, 사랑
으로 만들어 만들어
우린 사람, 사람, 사람
저 무수히 많은 직선들 속
내 사랑, 사랑, 사랑
그 위에 살짝 앉음 하트가 돼
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(Live & love, live & love)
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(If it’s love, I will love you)
You make I to an O
I to an O
너 땜에 알았어
왜 사람과 사랑이 비슷한 소리가 나는지
You make live to a love
Live to a love
너 땜에 알았어
왜 사람이 사랑을 하며 살아가야 하는지
I와 U의 거린 멀지만
F*** JKLMNOPQRST
모든 글잘 건너 내가 네게 닿았지
봐 내와 네도 똑같은 소리가 나잖아
그렇다고 내가 넌 아니지만
너의 책장의 일부가 되고파
너의 소설에 난 참견하고파
연인으로
난 그냥 사람, 사람, 사람
넌 나의 모든 모서릴 잠식
나를 사랑, 사랑, 사랑
으로 만들어 만들어
우린 사람, 사람, 사람
저 무수히 많은 직선들 속
내 사랑, 사랑, 사랑
그 위에 살짝 앉음 하트가 돼
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(Live & love, live & love)
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(If it’s love, I will love you)
만약 내가 간다면 어떨까
내가 간다면 슬플까 넌
만약 내가 아니면 난 뭘까
결국 너도 날 떠날까
스치는 바람, 바람, 바람
(만 아니길 바랄 뿐)
흘러갈 사람, 사람, 사람
(만 아니길 바랄 뿐)
기분은 파랑, 파랑, 파랑
(머릿속은 온통 blue)
널 얼마나 마나 마나
얼마나 마나 마나
넌 나의 사람, 사람, 사람
넌 나의 바람, 바람, 바람
넌 나의 자랑, 자랑, 자랑
넌 나의 사랑 (나의 사랑)
단 한 사랑 (단 한 사랑)
넌 나의 사람, 사람, 사람
넌 나의 바람, 바람, 바람
넌 나의 자랑, 자랑, 자랑
넌 나의 사랑 (나의 사랑)
단 한 사랑 (단 한 사랑)
[English translation:]
Is this love
Is this love
Sometimes I know
Sometimes I don’t
The next phenomenon
What should I write?
Too many words circle around me
My heart doesn’t exist
I just feel it
Like the moon when the sun rises
Like how nails grow
Like trees that shed their bark once a year
You are the one who will change my memory
A person of love
Before I knew you
My heart was uniform
I just want people, people, people
You’re sleeping in all my corners
Love me, love
Made of
We’re people, we’re people, we’re people
In that myriad of straight lines
My love, love, love
Sit on top of it and become hearts
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(Live & love, live & love)
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(If it’s love, I will love you)
You make I to an O
I to an O
You’ve got me
Why do people sound like love?
You make love to a love
Live to a love
You’ve got me
Why do people love to live?
It’s a long way from I to U
All the words crossed, and I reached you
Look, you and I make the same sound
But I’m not you
I want to be part of your bookcase
I want to be part of your novel
In love
I just want people, people, people
You’re sleeping in all my corners
Love me, love
Made of
We’re people, we’re people, we’re people
In that myriad of organized lines
My love, love, love
Sit on top of it and become hearts
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(Live & love, live & love)
I live so I love
I live so I love
(Live & love, live & love)
(If it’s love, I will love you)
What if I go?
Will I be sad if I go
If it wasn’t me, what would I be?
Do you think you’ll leave me after all?
A gust of wind
(I just hope not)
A passing man
(I just hope not)
I feel blue, blue, blue
(Blue all over the head)
How much did you drink
How much
You’re my person, my person, my person
You are my wind, my wind, my wind
You are my pride, my pride, my pride
You are my love
One Love (One Love)
You’re my person, my person, my person
You are my wind, my wind, my wind
You are my pride, my pride, my pride
You are my love
One Love (One Love)
Unraveling the Meaning of “Trivia 承: Love”
“Trivia 承: Love” by BTS, performed by RM, delves into the profound simplicity and complexity of love. The lyrics reflect an introspective journey, questioning the nature of love and identity. RM uses wordplay—such as the transformation from “I” to “O”—to symbolize personal growth and the shift from solitude to connection. He likens love to natural phenomena, suggesting it is a force that quietly yet powerfully shapes one’s existence. The repetition of words like “saram” (person) and “sarang” (love) highlights how love is an intrinsic part of being human. Through poetic metaphors, the song expresses vulnerability, longing, and the universal desire to be intertwined with another’s story.
