Hangul
Dear younger me
Will it turn into little dust and disappear?
Like a puzzle left alone
Do you feel like there’s no more room for you?
That child in the mirror
I hate you more than anyone
The tears I swallowed
Create a sea in my heart
small and delicate, mm
Dear younger me
In a room alone on a long dark night
Curled up and asleep
On the wet pillow next to your bed
A letter to let go
A bright future is a step forward
I’ll wait for you there
Don’t hold back, you can cry, I’m fine
Love, you’re older
In the crumpled diary
Mom, I’m sorry I made you angry.
Always “work hard” and “work hard”
Those words sometimes hurt
Dear younger me
In a room alone on a long dark night
Curled up and asleep
On the wet pillow next to your bed
A letter to let go
Many tears are for you in the future
I will give you stronger wings
It’s okay, hug me, trust me
Love, you’re older
Today I will simply sleep soundly
(Dear younger me)
When you open your eyes, your dark heart will become brighter
Dear younger me, love, older you
Dear younger me, love, older you
I hope you believe in yourself and dream about tomorrow
Love, you’re older

Translation
Dear younger me
Will I become a tiny speck of dust and disappear?
Like a puzzle piece left alone
Do you feel like there’s no place for you?
The child in the mirror
You hate them more than anyone
The tears you swallowed
They have formed an ocean in your heart
Small and fragile, mm
Dear younger me
On a long, dark night, alone in your room
You would curl up and fall asleep
At your bedside, on the damp pillow
A letter I leave for you
A bright future is just one step closer
I’ll wait for you there
Don’t hold back, it’s okay to cry, you’re doing okay
Love, you’re older
In the crumpled diary
“I’m sorry if I got angry, mom”
Always “work hard” and again “work hard”
Those words sometimes hurt
Dear younger me
On a long, dark night, alone in your room
You would curl up and fall asleep
At your bedside, on the damp pillow
A letter I leave for you
All those tears will give you the future
Even stronger wings
I’ll hug you and say it’s okay, I believe in you
Love, you’re older
Today try to fall into a deep sleep
(Dear younger me)
When you open your eyes, even your dark heart will become bright
Dear younger me, love, older you
Dear younger me, love, older you
I hope that tomorrow you believe in yourself within yourself and dream
Love, you’re older
