〈ON〉〈Magic Shop〉〈Mikrokosmos〉〈Burning Up (FIRE)〉〈Spring Day〉– To mark the release, we present messages from Korean language supervisor Kim Sunok and editor Yuka Kuwabata. Korean Commentary by Kim Sunok The appeal of this book is that you can learn practical Korean while savoring the worldview and message of BTS. We’ve strived to provide explanations of Korean that are easy to understand, even for beginners. It’s packed with practical, usable Korean, including expressions used in everyday conversation, slang used by young people, and even emotional expressions conveyed in their songs. In working on this book, I was amazed by the beauty of the Korean in BTS’s lyrics. They have a mastery of language and expressions, and even when using the same verb, they can convey various nuances with just one ending. As listeners, we can feel the tenderness of “I want you to know” that touches our hearts. In particular, the lyrics of “Magic Shop” made it clear to me that even though they have left Korea and become global stars, they still know how to truly love people and have the warmth to encourage those who are weak. I think this is a special book that will allow BTS fans and Korean language learners alike to enjoy BTS’s songs even more deeply. I hope as many people as possible will pick up a copy. (President of Kori Bungo Gakudo. Lecturer at Musashi University and Seisen Women’s University. Former lecturer on NHK Radio and Educational TV’s “Korean Language Course on TV”) Supervised by Yuka Kuwabata Which of the 10 songs included in “Learn Korean with the Lyrics of 10 Legendary BTS Songs” is your favorite? They’re all great songs, but my favorite is “We are Bulletproof: the Eternal.” This song is the ultimate fan song, a sincere confession of the band’s feelings about meeting ARMY and walking together through the bumpy roads they’ve traveled. Try humming along to the slow melody over and over. Before long, you’ll be able to sing along, and you’ll be singing louder at concerts. We’re also pleased to report that “We are Bulletproof: the Eternal” was played along with concert footage at the BTS FESTA venue, held near Seoul in June of this year. (Translator and writer. Supervised translation of the Japanese version of “BEYOND THE STORY: 10-YEAR RECORD OF BTS”)
