Lyrics:
직역하지 마, 어색하잖아
고민하지 마, 어렵지 않아
네 실력에 맞게 쉽게 한번 풀어봐.
나는 한국어 초보자, 하지만 모르는 게 너무 많아
빨리 말하고 싶지만, 맞는 표현이 생각 안 나
그러다 좋은 방법 하나 찾았어, 한국어 몰라도 말할 수 있어
그런데 번역기로 만든 문장이, 알고 보니 말도 안 되는 거였어
직역하지 마, 어색하잖아
사전 열어보기 전에 잘 생각해 봐
고민하지 마, 어렵지 않아
네 실력에 맞게 쉽게 한번 풀어봐!
직역하지 마, 어색하잖아
고민하지 마, 어렵지 않아
네 실력에 맞게 쉽게 한번 풀어봐!
습관처럼 나오는 번역기 찾기
역시 쉽지 않지 필요하긴 하지만
의존하지 말기, 언어는 말하기
바퀴처럼 구글 파파고 돌리기 stop please
같이 연습해 볼까
문법 발음 서툴러도 괜찮아
연습만이 살길 알잖아
너도 할 수 있어 말해봐 자신 있게!
직역하지 마, 어색하잖아
사전 열어보기 전에 잘 생각해 봐
고민하지 마, 어렵지 않아
네 실력에 맞게 쉽게 한번 풀어봐!
직역하지 마, 어색하잖아
고민하지 마, 어렵지 않아
네 실력에 맞게 쉽게 한번 풀어봐!

빅키샘 사랑해요!

[@mardiros129]

Billy has finally achieved his dream of becoming a kpop idol!

[@tokinGLX]

I was NOT expecting a song from Billy but I'm so happy we have it 🤣♥️

I love it! On spotify soon? ㅋㅋㅋ

[@PaulinaKarolina]

I’ve been having a really bad day.. thanks for making it better ^^

[@da-sh4860]

the mv is cute, the song is cathcy and the lyrics is somehow relatable hahha I've enjoyed it. Again congratulations on your 1st song and mv 👏🏻☺️

[@woozihae]

Mygod this is a BOP 😂 This calls me out for my literal translations lol

[@kevinrosenau7048]

Yooo that moonwalk was smooth af 😂

[@LearnKoreanABC]

우와~ 대박!! 두 분 모두 진짜 멋져요! 👍

[@tinubabalola9956]

the harmonies omg

[@crazypatrickteacher]

It's criminal if this isn't already in every noraebang, in Korea and elsewhere.

[@supernumerousness]

Imagine becoming a Korean teacher when you have all of this raw musical talent. On the real though, this was incredible. Mnet when?

[@choicelyon2131]

Hahaha patiently awaiting the fancams 😁

[@SleeplessinOC]

This is too funny 😂 You’re awesome Billy (and C.Swag too of course!!)

[@victoriamendez8273]

STAN BILLY 🔥

[@ZomBeadsCL]

As someone who's been a Michael Jackson fan for like 16 years now, I'm actually surprised you do the moonwalk the propper way hahaha, great MV you both :D

[@ekny806]

Hah you guys shot the video right by my house.

[@am-anamika533]

노래를 너무 좋아해요 ^^

[@BlancheDuBoisIntrovert]

Billy is like the Bill Nye Science Guy of Korean. He makes learning Korean feel a little less intimidating.

[@KelahCash]

Aye! This joint was lit 😭😂 It's so cool to watch you actually RAP in freaking KOREAN! Language skills going crazy 🔥 Yall are so fun! I love how in sync your energy & personalities were! Thank you for this 😂 Oh, & NOICE 👌🏽

[@avencastcastrocks]

The Billy dance moves are next level

[@squidigin9515]

You do a surprise when notice how easy people understand broken sentence, for example this. Worry not. You will rarely be in a position where it’s important to be very careful with your words. Just focus on being able to convey the generic message and worry about exact vocabulary later

[@belladona3608]

This is a masterpiece!!! I love it, it's so catchy and sounds so good!! I'm going to listen to it on repeat all day!

[@prachisingh7569]

The video is good and song too. And thank you for telling us in this beautiful way to not translate and try on our own.

[@vanikurup]

Ha ha ha ...loved it. As a beginner Korean language learner I'm actually in the space that you showed. Sigh! But this was fun. Thank you 😊

[@ChannelBCD]

콘셉트를 진짜 좋아합니다

[@SheetalSharma-ed2cc]

Omg . It's awesome and really inspiring too . Thank you so much Billy . It's so creative and from here too we can learn new words. Thank u once again. Good job . Keep it up. 👍

[@xuser9980]

Nobody talking about the thumbnail. Next stop: '직역' 😉 I see what you did there.

[@grace.1123]

omg why does this give me 스트레스 컴온 by 빅병 vibes? 😂😂 thanks for the confidence boost, billy!!!! really needed this ♡

[@ghcheong]

This song is great! It really stresses the importance of thinking in korean and not one's native language and then translating.

[@booksketball]

my ult bias

[@diabolic42090]

this is a banger

[@avendinglasan2836]

so cool sir billy

[@domo3858]

But for intermediate to advanced learners, translating using naver translate actually helps because they analyse the way the word is used before using it. They also understand conjugations better so even when translating it, intermediate to advanced learners may take the sentence translated and change the entire sentence, conjugating accordingly before using it. I think when intermediate to advanced learners translate, they are just searching for the right words and learning how those words are used, especially in naver translate examples.

[@Madrinass]

This made me smile! Thank you :)

[@eundongpark1672]

I love this so much. Wish it was on Spotify

The awkward turtle hand gesture had me rolling! 🤣

[@loco_poco]

[@morgannavel4552]

It's so so funny ahahaha, I like that. Such a good to remind us that translation can be wrong and that we should try make it simple. It's even something that in my native language It's hard to do :D

[@anthonycarlos5934]

Why is this actually fire tho

[@lilysnake333]

ok but this is fire

[@TifasaurusRex]

Why’s it a BOP tho?!

[@__justsayno__]

Hi, I was wondering how many semester's is the Korean language class at Honkuk University?

[@sue4341]

That was 귀엽다. It was well done. 👍

[@praisedara8164]

우와 듣기 좋네요 😄 근데 원래 저는 문장을 만들고 번역기로 확인해요 그러면 괜찮죠?

[@kuexiong4961]

This is so hilarious! The lyrics are so true tho. 하하하😂

[@kbangtan45]

1:40 this reminds me of ‘RM’s riding the bicycle’ clip in BTS’s music video - Adult Child... could it be?

[@JamesTermy]

Speechless at first... but after giving some thought, the student side of me loves this as it preserves the way the language is spoken very well. It's the same reason that the musician side of me knows this is not my jam... the soundtrack from Itaewon class is an example of what is and my whole family fell in love with these songs... these lyrics lose Korean and enter the universal language of using their voices like instruments... the timing of their words... can't even tell its Korean. Probably a gendra thing but as a musician to musician worth noting.

[@ad_kk16]

This is just for fun anyway. And of course just for teaching. In my opinion, the lyrics doesn't lose Korean and you can tell it's Korean. This is suppose to be cheesy. Clearly this isn't a professional korean music debut lmfao. It does remind me of those children songs for languages. I remember listening to a similar one in Ojibwe and Spanish.

[@SmolCloud]

😂😭

[@kolynkool7127]

I know it maybe isn't a good place to ask, but could anybody explain me, why in 쉽지 않지 (1:22) is the 지 added to 않다? Thanks...
