John Ofa Rhee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

안녕, 넌 잘지내나봐
내가 슬펐던 만큼 슬프진 않나봐
안녕, 넌 괜찮은가봐
내가 아팠던만큼 아프진 않나봐

1년이 지나갔어도
너를 못잊었나봐
눈물은 계속 흐르고, 내맘은 너무 아파
딴사람 만나봐도 전부다 똑같아 oh I oh I

Hope to meet somebody
Meet somebody like you
'Cause I need somebody
That somebody is you

오, 난 멍청한것 같아
너를 잊지 못하는 내 꼬라지를 봐
항상, 똑같은 한숨만이 나와
울어보고, 매달려도 어쩔수 없나봐

1년이 지나갔어도
너를 못잊었나봐
눈물은 계속 흐르고, 내맘은 너무 아파
딴사람 만나봐도 전부다 똑같아 oh I oh I

Maybe 이게 괜찮은것같아
You'll be alright
너는 괜찮을꺼야

(Meet somebody, meet somebody like)
You




(Need somebody, that somebody is)
You

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to John Ofa Rhee's song "Somebody" describe a person who is struggling to move on from a past relationship. The singer is checking in on their ex and assuming that they must be doing well because they themselves are not as sad as they used to be. However, they still can't forget about their former partner and find that all other people they meet are the same as before. The chorus expresses a desire to meet someone like their ex and admits that they need that person, hoping that they will be alright in the end.


The song captures the universal experience of heartbreak and the difficulty of letting go of a past love. The use of Korean language adds a layer of complexity and depth to the lyrics. The repetition of phrases like "1년이 지나갔어도" (even after a year has passed) and "눈물은 계속 흐르고" (tears keep flowing) emphasizes the enduring pain of the breakup. The singer recognizes that they are holding onto something that they need to move on from, but they are not quite ready to do so.


Overall, "Somebody" is a poignant and relatable song that acknowledges the difficulty of healing from a broken heart. It conveys a sense of hopelessness and longing through its lyrics, while also suggesting that there may be a chance for a brighter future.

Hey, it looks like you’ve been doing well
I guess you’re not as sad as I’ve been
Hey, you look fine
I guess you’re not as hurt as I was

Even though one year has passed
I guess I still haven’t forgotten you
I just keep crying and
I still hurt so much

Even if I try dating other people,
they’re all exactly the same
Oh I, oh I

Hope to meet somebody,
meet somebody like you
Cause I need somebody
That somebody is you

Oh, I think I’m stupid
Take a look at me, who can’t forget you
I just keep exhaling the same sighs
Even if I cry and try to cling to you,
there’s nothing I can do
