Satoori Rap [English Ttanslation]
Yo once again
Big Hit Represent
We are BTS
Let's Go
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
What is he saying (what) what is he saying
(what)
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
Tell them that we have come (what) we're real
hot stuff
Hello misters, my hometown is Daegu
So today, I'll rap in satoori
Let's play, not caring about the other boys and
girls
Hello everyone, oh my, what is this? Why are
you rapping like that?
Misters and Mrs.'s, don't just stand there,
come out and have fun
When it comes to Kyeongsangdo, the
successors of Silla's Hwarang1 keep growing
When it comes to satoori, Kyeongsangdo is the
best
It's tasty and sounds good, perfect for our
sentiment
Hyung, we have that too - Did you eat? This
bibimbap is the best2
I haven't even started talking yet so I'm gonna
let it all out later
Is that the guy? Do you know this phrase?3
Kyeongsangdo is bad? Who says!
What are you saying? Kyeongsangdo is all
about sharing, why don't you come here and
see for yourself?
Forget it! I'm a Daegu guy so I don't say
things twice
Yes, yes, Kyeongsangdo is the best, I'll just
give it to you, we're not strangers
What did you just say? Oh my, your smack talk
about Jeollado is making people clam up
But all they need is to eat Heuksando's
skatefish4 to clear their minds
So are you okay with that? I got a child whose
in the eight to ninth month
A champion who weights 20kg, as big as the
watermelon from Mt. Mudeung5
You take one look at it's clearly a Bangtan
who will make girls cry
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
What is he saying (what) what is he saying
(what)
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
Tell them that we have come (what) we're real
hot stuff
Hey you country boys, I have a Seoul state of
mind
I was born in Seoul so I learned the Seoul
language well although these days, satoori is
highly regarded
Yes, I'll admit it, the accents are pretty cool
but as much as it's the standard language
here, it's that much honest
The beginning and end are clear and organized
as the example of of a well-built Korean
language
Only ours goes with English, y'all never
understand it
Okay, I'll honestly become honest
Kyeongsangdo accents make guys want to use
it, Jeollado words sound so friendly
Once I start to use it, I get all happy
Why keep fighting, in the end, it's all the same
Korean
Look up, we are all looking at the same sky
This may make you cringe a little but everyone
is awesome
We can all communicate from Moonsan to
Marado
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
What is he saying (what) what is he saying
(what)
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
Tell them that we have come (what) we're real
hot stuff
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
What is he saying (what) what is he saying
(what)
From Seoul to Gangwon, Kyeongsangdo,
Chungcheong to Jeolla
Tell them that we have come (what) we're real
hot stuff
