The Way to Live
“Although I also had too many memories about
a woman I once loved, it should have long gone by my side already. Even though I’m sad at this time, I’m
not a person who gives up easily.” –Kim Young Bae, Ways to Live Like a Man [translated lyrics]
The talented idol boy group, B1A4, memenangkan salah satu episode
dalam program acara musik “Immortal Songs 2: Singing the Legend”, yaitu episode
78. B1A4 yang pada waktu itu diwakili oleh vokalis utama, Sandeul, dan rapper, Baro, membawakan lagu bertajuk
“Ways to Live Like a Man”. Lagu tersebut adalah lagu ciptaan Kim Bum Ryong,
legenda yang hadir dalam episode tersebut. “Ways to Live Like a Man” sendiri
dipopulerkan oleh Kim Young Bae, aktor Korea Selatan. Through this song, Kim Young
Bae fulfilled his dream as a singer. And
also through this song, B1A4
fulfilled their dream to win it all on “Immortal Songs 2”. Dirilis pertama
kali pada tahun 1994, “Ways to Live Like a Man” menjadi lagu nasional bagi
seluruh kaum pria di Korea Selatan pada waktu itu.
Kim Bum Ryong menulis lagu ini
setelah terinspirasi dari serial drama “The Moon of Seoul”, di mana Kim Young
Bae berperan sebagai tokoh utama di dalamnya. Kim Bum Ryong made this song with Kim Young Bae’s drama character in
mind. Lagu ini menggambarkan emosi-emosi yang dirasakan oleh tokoh utama
yang diperankan Kim Young Bae tersebut. And
then, Kim Young Bae ended up singing
this song too. Seperti judulnya, lirik lagu “Ways to Live Like a Man”
merupakan gambaran resolusi seorang pria atas hidupnya. Tentang seorang pria
yang mencoba bangkit dari keterpurukannya, yang menghadapi kesendiriannya.
Tentang seorang pria yang berusaha bertahan atas segala sakit hati dan
kegagalan cintanya di masa lalu. Tentang seorang pria yang menyadari bahwa
cinta itu bukan menyerah, tetapi melindungi. Bahwa cinta itu bukan menyakiti,
tetapi memperjuangkan.

B1A4 Sandeul dan Baro ketika membawakan lagu "Ways to Live Like a Man" pada program "Immortal Songs 2" Episode 78 |
B1A4’s efforts are shown through their performance of “Ways to Live
Like a Man”. Para MC, penampil lainnya, bahkan sang legenda pun dibuat
terkejut dengan penampilan mereka sebagai grup termuda dalam episode tersebut.
Penghayatan Sandeul dan Baro atas lagu tersebut luar biasa di usia mereka yang
masih sangat muda. They mature each and
every day, and also it was amazing
for arousing those kinds of emotions when they’re so young. Kim Bum Ryong
berkomentar, “You guys are so cute but
your singing is so mature.” Sementara itu, Jung Dong Ha yang juga tampil
dalam episode tersebut mengatakan, “Sandeul
is great with his delivery. He has a way of really moving you.” Indeed, B1A4’s “Ways to Live Like a Man” was worth the win.
“I look straight at the front and walk ahead.
I think it’s time for me to successfully shine, and it’s not too late for love.
I look away at the front with a big smile
one more time. And it
does not matter how you think about myself, this is the way a man
lives.” –Kim Young Bae, Ways to Live Like a Man [translated lyrics]
