Reggae is a music genre first developed in Jamaica in the late 1960s.
While sometimes used in a broader sense to refer to most types of Jamaican music, the term reggae more properly denotes a particular music style that originated following on the development of ska and rocksteady. Reggae is based on a rhythmic style characterized by regular beats on the off-beat, known as the skank. Reggae is normally slower than ska, and usually has accents on the first and third beat in each bar.
Why So Lonely
Wonder Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
모든 게 달라질 줄 알았는데
별거 없어 (oh), 넌 다른 게 없어 (뭐야?)
너와 보내는 주말 밤이
아주 달콤할 거라 믿었는데
별거 없어 (oh), 넌 다를 게 없어 (뭐야?)
어이없어
영화에 나오는 예쁜 연인들처럼
나-나-난-난
그런 사랑을 원하는데
Baby, why I'm so lonely?
난 애타는데 넌 뭐니? (Whoa-uh-uh-uh)
Baby, no 내 마음이
언제 널 떠나버릴지 몰라
(Tell me why 뭐야?) 니 맘은 도대체
(뭐야?) 내가 얼마나 널 사랑하는데
이렇게 답답한 기분은 뭔데?
뭔가 콩깍지가 씌었는데
너도 나만큼 빠져야 하는데
너만 멋져 (oh), 내 마음만 다쳐 (뭐야?)
괜찮을 거라고 mind control
해도 예상 밖에 있는 내 남잔
Out of control (no) 잔소리만 넘쳐 (뭐야?)
어이없어
알면 알수록 모르겠어, 맘이 왜 자꾸 외로워지는지
나-나-난-난
텅 빈 방 안에 혼자 갇혀버린 것 같아
Baby, why I'm so lonely?
난 애타는데 넌 뭐니? (Whoa-uh-uh-uh)
Baby, no 내 마음이
언제 널 떠나버릴지 몰라
(Tell me why 뭐야?) 니 맘은 도대체
(뭐야?) 내가 얼마나 널 사랑하는데
이렇게 답답한 기분은 뭔데?
I don't wanna talk about it (hey)
말하지 않아도 모두 다 알아 봐주길
아, 이건 내 그저 가벼운 바램일 뿐 (hah-ah)
니 귓가엔 그저 스치는 바람일 뿐
귀찮다는 듯 얼굴을 구겨, 뭐든 대충대충
당연하단 듯 너는 우겨, 담엔 더 잘해줄게
응? 다음이 어디 있어? 네 이번 기회 떠나기 전
오, 아직도 넌 정신 못 차리면 (뻥) 차기 직전
Baby, why I'm so lonely?
난 애타는데 넌 뭐니? (Whoa-uh-uh-uh)
Baby, no 내 마음이
언제 널 떠나버릴지 몰라
(Tell me why 뭐야?) 니 맘은 도대체

The lyrics to "Why So Lonely" by Wonder Girls seems to be about a one-sided love that's causing the singer to feel isolated and frustrated. The opening lines state that the singer believed everything would change from the moment their lips touched, but everything remains the same - the person she likes doesn't seem interested. The second verse is where we see her expressing her frustrations with wanting a love that's not reciprocated, and how she's left alone in an empty room with her feelings. The chorus questions why she's so lonely when she wants to be with someone so badly, and asks what's going through the other person's mind.
The song has an overall atmosphere of sadness and defeat - there's a feeling that the singer has tried everything she could to get the attention of the person she's in love with, but nothing has worked. This sentiment is reflected clearly in the bridge when she sings, "I don't wanna talk about it // 말하지 않아도 모두 다 알아 봐주길" - she's not willing to discuss her feelings anymore since it seems like everyone knows she's in love with someone who doesn't feel the same.
As with many K-pop songs, the lyrics to "Why So Lonely" are accompanied by upbeat music with a reggae-inspired beat. It's a contradiction that's common in the genre - the lyrics might be sad or depressing, but the music is cheerful and danceable. One interesting point to note is that "Why So Lonely" was the Wonder Girls' first self-composed song, a departure from their usual releases, which opens new creative doors for the group.

これたぶんwonder girlsの最後のMVだよね。
wonder girlsって解散してもたくさんの人から愛されてるグループだと思う。
私はNiziUとかTWICEを好きになってwonder girlsを知ったから
もう解散をしてしまってたけど、たくさんの素晴らしい曲を残してくれたと思う。
何よりJYPを引っ張ってくれてホントに感謝しかない、、
この曲も中毒性半端ないし、nobodyとかtell meとかヒット曲を連発したよね。
そういうヒット曲がなかったらTWICEのメンバーとかもJYPに入ろうと思わなかったかもしれないし、
そう考えるとこのグループすごいよね。
今は、メンバー全員が個人で活動してると思うけど、芸能活動を辞めないでずっと続けて欲しい‼️

YASSS to your comment!
not only that, but they also transitioned to being simply idols to take more control of their music. I guess we all feared for the group when the US adventure never took it to the next level and their Korean come backs were so little. But I must say, the two albums they dropped in Korea during those years, are my favourites, along with the last one, that settled a new chapter for them as a group and a band. I never lost hopes for Sun Mi to re-join if the group survived, but it was sad to let SoHee go, even if she wasn't much but the visual, she was my favourite. Sun Ye has never officially left, though, we never know if she could eventually come back with them if the group continues. But right now, it seems almost impossible, as she is focusing on her family.
I believe that the key the group survived this much is that they trained in a time when K-Pop was transitioning and fewer girl groups were known, plus the most popular ones were on their dawnfall at the time. That brought them pretty close, even with Hyunah, whom left soon after their debut. I still remember the letter one of them (I think that was Sun Mi) wrote to her after 4Minute's first TV stage went not that well as they had expected. It was really sweet, encouraging her and wishing her the best. These girls went through huge success from Tell Me to Nobody (including SO HOT) and the fact that back then the competition was mostly boy groups, I believe that made it easier to settle a situation for them to be closer and able to go through anything together.
But, with the years and the US adventure not getting them to International Stardom (but still guaranteeing them success in Korea whenever they came back), other factors became more important to some of the members. That is mostly the reason why Sun Ye and So Hee left, but also the one Ye Eun and Hyerim stayed.
Ye Eun's music flourished during the Dream High 2 days, when she started with her first solo song, and it kept growing to become HA:FELT almost at the same time Sun Mi got back to it with her solo debut. It was a nice surprise (although some of us anticipated that to happen because we wished it would) that Sun Mi re-joined the girls. I think that the fact that the Wonder Girls from now are all about experimenting and growing their music together is the key to the group sucessful re-vamp and come back. While the previous albums always pleased me (not just title tracks), the ones they are doing now aren't just as good, but also have their own signature, which guarantees the group's next two or three years, at least, when their 2009 hubbaes are starting to crumble.
The way they are also maturing is nice, they haven't dropped the image and concepts factors that are the signature of nowadays K-Pop, but their music and style is aiming at an audience that has grown with them.
I am glad that, at still, they managed to stay like this. I do miss Sun Ye's presence and voice the most, but the groups is still solid, something I cannot say about Miss A, whom I am trully mourning because I really liked them as a whole.
Wonder Girls were the group that finally got me into K-Pop. I knew it before, and followed it from afar, but I was never enough interested into it as I was with J-Pop or UK Pop. Not until them. It's a relief they can still come back like this.

1) Wonder Girls debuted with "Irony" (Feb 2007) (Original members: Sunye, Ye Eun, Sunmi, Sohee, Hyuna)
2) Hyuna left the group because of her weakening health (July 2007)
3) Wonder Girls then released, "Tell Me" with Yubin as the new rapper, this was their first win (Sept 2007)
4) Wonder Girls released their third single "So Hot" (May 2008)
5) Wonder Girls took a short break and came back with "Nobody" (Sept 2008)
6) "Nobody" was such a hit that they broke into the U.S and Chinese market with that song as well (2009)
PS: You totally forgot to mention about them releasing 2 Different Tears in 2010
