The K-pop group's 2010 track mixes Korean lyrics with a familiar English hook.
The lyric doesn't try to bridge the gap between languages so much as let them sit side by side.
You get the full statement in Korean, then the almost wordless release in the 'nananana' hook, it trusts the feeling to carry through.
Editor's note
KARA's Loveable in Korean and English
The K-pop group's 2010 track mixes Korean lyrics with a familiar English hook.
Oh nananana nanananana nanananana
The lyric doesn't try to bridge the gap between languages so much as let them sit side by side. You get the full statement in Korean, then the almost wordless release in the 'nananana' hook, it trusts the feeling to carry through.
The Korean lines 'Oh moributho balkuthkaji da sarangsurowo' and 'Oh niga naui yojaranun ge jarangsurowo' sit right next to the English 'Oh nananana nanananana nanananana'. It's that mix, the specific declaration in one language, the open-ended chant in another, that gives the song its push and pull. The words feel like they're reaching for something just beyond translation.
That hook does the work of a chorus without needing the words. After the Korean verses, it just opens up.
The way 'Oh nananana nanananana nanananana' repeats, it becomes its own kind of meaning.
