Urban Zakapa's Love Is All Around
A Korean R&B band's bilingual meditation on love's persistent presence.
Even though I'm tryin' not, try not fallin'
The Korean lines describe love as both easy and difficult, a word that leaves and returns. That tension, 'tteonago tto doraoneun mal', is what the English chorus answers. 'Eventually, love is all around me' feels less like a discovery and more like a weary surrender to something that was always there, whether you wanted it or not.
It's that stuttered, resisting 'tryin' not' that gives the eventual surrender its force. The grammar bends under the effort of holding back something inevitable.
Cho Kwon's vocal delivery on the Korean verses carries a heavier, more intimate weight than the airier English affirmations. You hear the difference between feeling love and talking about it.

sarang ttaeroneun swipdagado

Even though I'm tryin' not,
try not fallin'
Eventually, love is all around me
You can take it every time
but you can miss it anytime
You know that
you can find your own love
No matter what you do,
where you are
No matter what you do,
where you are
sarang ttaeroneun mipdagado

sarang nae gyeoteul meomulda

geu mal nal apeuge haetdeon
geu mal nal seulpeuge haetdeon
dasin motal geot gatado
Even though I'm trying not,
try not fallin'
Eventually, love is all around me
You can take it every time
but you can miss it anytime
You know that you can find your own love
No matter what you do,
where you are
No matter what you do,
where you are
If you want to find
very your own true love
Believe in yourself and look inside yourself
Once you find your love don't ever let it go
You can find your love
You can find your love
If you believe it and love will show again
You can take it every time
but you can miss it anytime
You know that you can find your own love
No matter what you do,
where you are
No matter what you do,
where you are
