I wasn’t a fan of Kpop before. My world then was filled with Western boybands like *Nsync and Backstreet Boys. Thus, I never got to appreciate much of the first generation Kpop boybands.
So once when I asked my Korean friend if she new H.O.T she said she did… but then she added that she preferred Sechskies 젝스키스. When I heard the name, I was like… who are they, and she introduced me to this song called Couple (커플).
So who are these guys??
Sechskies was the rival group of H.O.T during the time boybands first became a hit in Korea. If you watch 2 Days 1 Night and you’re familiar with Eun Jiwon, he was originally a member of that group. If you also listen to a lot of Kpop and familiar with a group called J-Walk (who sang Shout Out Love and My Love), both members also were from that group. They were popular from 1997 however they disbanded sometime in 2000.
The song Couple is one of their popular songs and sometimes it still is sang on some shows. If I remember correctly, when Nichkhun was first featured on We Got Married, on the bus he rode, some singers sang this song in acapella.
In the absence of a nice romanization on the internet, I went ahead and did the romanization. For someone who wants to sing a korean song but doesn’t speak or read the language this is important to us. And since sharing is caring so I am putting it up on my blog.. however if you copy it, please make sure to give credit where it’s due ^_^.
So sing a long with the lyrics..

Couple – Sechskies (Translation)
Compared to before, you’re probably more better now
You’ve fulfilled this emptiness inside me
Being so weary in this wonderful world
Losing my way trying to find my other half is all in the past
You don’t know how long I’ve waited in my life for this day
It feels like a dream
I’m not alone, but with you now
Oh~ Love I’ve been so weary, why did it take you so long to find me
Oh~ Love I love you, now you can spend every second with me
All right all right
When I saw you one time I lost my heart to you
Oops baby I’ll be loving you forever with you now
Baby don’t go too far I won’t let you go
Please don’t go I want to hold you tight and I need your love
Come into my arms and look at me
Stop breathing and close your eyes
Will you accept me
I’m not bent
For you I’m your one rose baby kiss me
Oh~ Love I’ve been so weary, why did it take you so long to find me
Oh~ Love I love you, now you can spend every second with me
Do you know how many long days I’ve waited for you to come
Now I’m going to hold your hand real tight in front of everyone
We’re going together now
Oh~ Love I’ve been so weary, why did it take you so long to find me
Oh~ Love I love you, now you can spend every second with me
Couple – Sechskies (Hangul)
예전보다 지금 니가 더욱 괜찮을꺼야
허전했던 나의 빈 곳을 이젠 채워 줬으니
아름다운 세상에서 많이 외로워 하며
내 반쪽을 찾아 해맨건 모두 옛날 얘긴걸
내 생애 이 시간만을 얼마나 기다렸는지 마치 꿈만 같은걸
이젠 나 혼자가 아닌 너와 함께 하는거야
Oh~ LOVE 왜 이제서야 많이 외롭던 나를 찾아온거야
Oh~ LOVE 너를 사랑해 이제 모든 시간들을 나와 함께해
All right. all right
When I saw you one time I lost my heart to you
Oops baby I’ll be loving you forever with you now
Baby, don’t go too far I won’t let you go
Please don’t go I want to hold you tight and
I need your love
얼마나 수많은 날을 기다려 왔는줄 아니 이젠 모두 앞에서
너의 손을 꼭 붙잡고 우린 함께 하는거야
Oh~ LOVE 왜 이제서야 많이 외롭던 나를 찾아온거야
Oh~ LOVE 너를 사랑해 이제 모든 시간들을 나와 함께해
과거 따윈 모두 잊고 나와 함께 할
많은 시간을 추억으로 만들어
Oh~ LOVE 왜 이제서야 많이 외롭던 나를 찾아온거야
Oh~ LOVE 너를 사랑해 이제 모든 시간들을 나와 함께해
