One of the things that helped start the Hallyu Wave in Asia was the drama that aired in 2006. Princess Hours is able to show the rest of the world about Korean culture because it has both historical and modern themes.

This drama, which is a romantic comedy, is based on the true story of the last Korean Royal family in the 20th century and shows the history of the Korean Empire in the modern day.

Crown Prince Lee Shin (Joo Jihoon) has to marry Shin Chaekyung (Yoon Eun-hye), a commoner girl. The marriage happened because Lee Shin’s grandfather and Chaekyung’s grandfather decided a long time ago that their grandchildren should get married.The romance scenes are absolutely the sweetest, the details, the styling, the set were all so well thought out.

It’s not just the drama Princess Hours that skyrocketed, even one of the OSTs is the same. Perhaps Love is the song of all time. Even this song is often sung again by Korean singers, even Korean actors. Starting from Kim Seon Ho, Yoona SNSD, CN Blue Kang Minhyuk, Solbin, Eric Nam, to Ailee.

Even this drama was also successfully made into a musical drama.

This time, with Howl Feat J charming voice was used to make the soundtrack for TV show Princess Hours. Here we present the lyrics with english translate.

Princess Hours OST
Released: 2006

언제였던 건지 기억나지 않아
Eonjeyeotdeon geonji gieoknaji anha
I don’t know ehen it all started
자꾸 내 머리가 너로 어지럽던 시작
Jakku nae meoriga neoro eojireopdeon sijak
When my head became dizzy with thoughts of you
한 두 번씩 떠오르던 생각
Han du beonssik tteooreudeon saenggak
These thoughts would often pop up in my mind
자꾸 늘어가서 조금 당황스러운 이 마음
Jakku neureogaseo jogeum danghwangseureoun i maeum
I feel anxious as my heart expands towards you

별일이 아닐 수 있다고 사소한 마음이라고
Byeoriri anil su itdago sasohan maeumirago
It’s nothing. It’s just a little thing
내가 내게 자꾸 말을 하는 게 어색한걸
Naega naege jakku mareul haneun ge eosaekhangeol
Your words are awkward to me

사랑인가요
Sarangingayo
Is it love?
그대 나와 같다면 시작인가요
Geudae nawa gatdamyeon sijagin.gayo
If you feel the same way, it it a beginning?
맘이 자꾸 그댈 사랑한대요
Mami jakku geudael saranghandaeyo
My heart keep saying it loves you
온 세상이 듣도록 소리치네요
On sesangi deutdorok sorichineyo
It screams out for the whole world to hear
왜 이제야 들리죠 우
Wae ijeya deullijyo u
Why has it taken so long for me to hear it?
서로를 만나기 위해 이제야 사랑 찾았다고
Seororeul mannagi wihae Ijeya sarang chajatdago
We’ve finally met. Finally found love.

지금 내 마음을 설명하려 해도
Jigeum nae maeumeul seolmyeongharyeo haedo
If I wanted to show you how I feel
네가 내가 되어 맘을 느끼는 방법뿐인데
Nega naega doeeo mameul neukkineun bangbeopppuninde
The only way would be for you to become me

이미 난 니 안에 있는 걸
Imi nan ni ane inneun geol
I’m already inside of you
내 안에 니가 있듯이
Nae ane niga itdeusi
Just like you’re inside of me
우린 서로에게 (서로에게)
Urin seoroege (seoroege)
To each other (to each other)
이미 길들여 진지 몰라
Imi gildeuryeo jinji molla
We may already be too accustomed

사랑인가요
Sarangingayo
Is it love?
그대 나와 같다면 시작인가요
Geudae nawa gatdamyeon sijagin.gayo
If you feel the same way, it it a beginning?
맘이 자꾸 그댈 사랑한대요
Mami jakku geudael saranghandaeyo
My heart keep saying it loves you
온 세상이 듣도록 소리치네요
On sesangi deutdorok sorichineyo
It screams out for the whole world to hear
왜 이제야 들리죠 우

Why has it taken so long for me to hear it?
서로를 만나기 위해 이제야 사랑 찾았다고

Saenggakhaebomyeon
When I think about it
생각해보면

많은 순간 속에
Manheun sungan soge
In many moments
얼마나 많은 설렘 있었는지
Eolmana manheun seollem isseonneunji
I realize how many moments there were my heart trembled
조금 늦은 그만큼 난 더 잘해 줄게요
Jogeum neujeun geumankeum nan deo jalhae julgeyo
I’ll try harder as I was late in realizing my feelings

함께 할게요

I’ll only give you fond memories
다신 내 곁에서 떠나지 마요

Even the shortest moments without you make me uneasy
내게 머물러줘요 우

Please stay by me
