8 misheard K-pop lyrics pt. 7
As international fans, messing up the lyrics to our favorite K-pop songs comes with the welcome package when you join the fandom. And only if you learn Korean and get pretty good at it, it’s probably a permanent malady. Because not only are we hearing English lyrics when it’s actually Korean and vice versa, but sometimes we even mess up words that are in our native language. That’s why it’s key to read up on the lyrics. But in the meantime, here’s another round of lyrics we misheard.
