BTS (방탄소년단) - 'they don't know 'bout us' Lyrics (With English Translation)
[?] : They don't know about us
How your voice
Can calm the sea
They know
[V] : I can show you love, I can show you
If you wanna know me, what can I do for you?
대체 뭐가 달랐냐고 자꾸 물어
They keep asking, “What was so different?”
나는 대답해, 나도 몰라
I answer, “I don’t even know either”
[Jung Kook] : Everybody hears the story that they wanna
쟤넨 이거 땜에 떴어, 내가 맞어
“They blew up because of this”—I’m right, right?
*They’re imitating people who say: “Oh, they got popular because of this one thing” → trying to simplify their success.
We just big boys, a.k.a. 촌놈
We just big boys, a.k.a. country boys
그냥 뭐 기세지, just shut up, shut up, oh
It’s just the momentum so just shut up, shut up, oh
[RM] : Hold up, chill, and take a bubble bath, bae (Ayy)
Do the math and go, just say what you say (Just say)
Oh, it's hard and that we cannot explain (Ayy)
Every time we tryna, tryna explain, we find
[Jimin, Jung Kook] : They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh-oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh, oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh-oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us
[V, Jung Kook, RM] : Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right (They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right (They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right (They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right (They don't know)
[Jin] : I can show you love, I can show you
If you wanna know me, what can I do for you? (They don't)
대체 뭐가 달랐냐고 자꾸 물어
They keep asking, “What was so different?”
나는 대답해, 나도 몰라
I answer, “I don’t even know either”
[SUGA] : 항상 쉬운 길만 찾기 바빠 괜시리 (Ayy)
Always busy looking for the easy way for no reason (ayy)
오지랖들은 태평양쯤 뺀질이 (Uh)
Your nosiness is as big as the Pacific Ocean, and you act all slick about it (uh)
알기 쉽게 설명해 줄까, baby?
Want me to break it down nice and easy for you, baby?
몰라도 돼 뭘 또 굳이 알려 하니? Ah (Ayy; Woo)
You don’t need to know—why are you trying so hard to figure it out? (ayy; woo)
[j-hope] : "걔넨 특별해 (해) Asian 중에," ayy
“They’re special among Asians,” ayy
"영웅스러운 존재 (재), too hard to break," uh
“Heroic figures, too hard to break,” uh
Uh, wе can't relate (Late)
그냥 사람 일곱인데
We’re just seven people
Ah, you said wе changed? (Changed)
We feel the same, shit
[Jimin, Jung Kook] : They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh-oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh, oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us (Oh-oh)
They don't know 'bout us, they don't know 'bout us
[Jung Kook, Jin] : Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right
(They don't know about us, they don't know about us; They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right
(They don't know about us, they don't know about us; They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right
(They don't know about us, they don't know about us; They don't know)
Yeah, damn, ooh, damn right, ooh, damn right
(They don't know about us, they don't know about us)
[?] : They don't know us
How your voice
Can calm the sea
