    벌써 몇달째 불었네 휘파람 휘파람
    For months, I've whistled and whistled
    복순이네 집앞을 지날땐
    When I pass BokSun's house,
    이 가슴 설레어
    My heart flutters
    나도 모르게 안타까이 휘파람 불었네
    Without thinking, sadly, I whistled
    [Chorus] 0:55
    휘, 휘 휘, 호 호호, 휘 휘 호호, 호
    Whi, whi, whi, whistling, whi, whi, whistling
    휘, 휘 휘, 호 호호, 휘휘 호호 호
    Whi, whi, whi, whistling, whi, whi, whistling
    [Verse 2] 1:13
    한번 보면은 어쩐지 다시 못볼듯
    Once I see her, somehow, as if I won't be able to see her again
    보고 또봐도 그모습 또보고싶네
    Regardless how many times I see her, I want to see her again
    오늘 계획 삼백을 했다고 생긋이 웃을때
    When she smiles saying she did 300 of labor plans,
    이 가슴에 불이 인다오
    My heart lights up
    이 일을 어찌하랴
    What should I do
    [Chorus] 1:42
    휘, 휘 휘, 호 호호, 휘 휘 호호, 호
    Whi, whi, whi, whistling, whi, whi, whistling

    [Bridge] 2:09
    휘휘,호호- 휘휘,호호-
    Whi,whi,whistling, whi,whi,whistling-
    휘-호- 휘파람
    whi-whi whistling
    [Verse 3] 2:22
    어제밤에도 불었네 휘파람 휘파람
    Even last night, I whistled and whistled
    벌써 몇달째 불었네 휘파람 휘파람
    For months, I've whistled and whistled
    혁신자의 꽃다발 안고서
    If I hug the flowers of the innovator*,
    휘파람 불면은
    and whistle
    복순이도 내마음 알리라
    Boksun would know of my feelings for her
    알아주리라
    She would, for sure
    [Chorus] 2:50
    휘, 휘 휘, 호 호호, 휘 휘 호호, 호

    *Notes about the song*
    It's a song sung from a man's perspective to a girl named BokSun whom he loves.
    Some interesting things are shown in the lyrics:
    -There are some lyrics showing(boasting) North Korea's communist state.
    On verse 2, the protagonist's heart 'lights up(in happiness)' hearing that his lover did ‘300 of her labor plans’. On verse 3, there are lyrics of 'the innovator(most likely Kim)’.
    -This music and video is most likely made by the state. The North Korea that is shown here(apartment buildings!) is the better part of North Korea. Most North Koreans live in a much worse state.
    -Linguistically, as a South Korean, it’s quite fascinating how North Korea does much less spacing between words than South Korea. ‘내 마음 (my feelings)’ is ‘내마음(myfeelings)’ in North Korean punctuation. Also, it’s written in a much antique style of speech. The lyrics are like script from the 1900s. The name used (Bok-sun) is also an antique name(a ‘grandma-name’).
    I had an assignment in school to research the ways South Korea should preserve its traditional music(gug-ak). So I searched up North Korea’s pop music, thinking it would have some traditional music in it. But I was met with synth-music that sounds and reads like it’s from the 80s, with some communist propaganda sprinkled on top. There’s no sight of traditional Korean music in this song.
    I did this translation in a whim, seeing that a lot of people wanted translations. So here you go! Hope you have a nice day.

      Thank you for the translation, there’s something kind of eerie about this song.
      There are some leftover traditional elements in some NK-pop songs, such as Tondollari, and Heullari, and I think parts of arirang are used in some. Of course these are synthesised but I suppose it’s an acknowledgement of a time before the kims still.
      I’m not expert just parroting what i know when i looked into their meanings.

    One thing to notice here is the genuine warmth and respect with which the lad pursues his love interest.

    But when my sweetheart smiled,
    A fire lit up in my heart.

    This is, what I suppose is the 'Other K-Pop'. Most of the K-Pop fans are mainly attached to the South Korean ones. So seeing the K-Pop of the other side is a bit unique!

    Это напоминает мне СССР, все знакомо, понятно. Эпоха развитого социализма.

      es un poco raro, el clip tiene un ambiente que no parece el de un país comunista y menos de Corea del norte parece de otro país asiático desarrollado como Japón o Corea del Sur

    I liked the song, you can see that the lyrics apparently don't mention the name of the Party, don't make a cult of personality to the leader, don't mention battles, revolution, etc.

    The tones remind me of some old chinese songs i used to listen everytime when I was a child. Damn it's giving me strong nostalgic feelings...

    Kind of impressive that there's no mention of Kim Il Sung or the Workers Party or the country anywhere in this song

    This remind me of that one time i hunted a carp with bow and arrow from a sewage pond and then ate it raw with my friends.
