Just One Day
Saturday, October 18, 2014
“There’s
nothing more to lose so I just cry it out. You’re the one tear drop that fills
my eyes. Love, that easy word, it’s like a tear to me. So like a fool, I just let
it falling down.” –Son Ho Young & Danny Ahn, Just One Day (OST. Marriage, Not Dating) [translated lyrics]
Cheers
up, Readers! In this month of broken heart, even though all Korean drama series
that I’ve reviewed are romantic comedies, they do have at least one song of
their soundtracks that represent the broken heart theme. This one is which I
love so much and I’ve been listening to recently, taken from the original
soundtrack of “Marriage, Not Dating”, this song is titled “Just One Day (하루만)”.
This ballad song is performed by the main vocalist and main rapper of a
legendary South Korean male group, g.o.d, Son Ho Young and Danny Ahn. “Just One
Day (하루만)” was released on
August 1st 2014 as a single titled “Marriage, Not Dating OST Part 3”. An
official music video (MV) was also released featuring some scenes from
“Marriage, Not Dating” drama series and clips of the song recording process in
a studio by Son and Ahn.

“Just
One Day (하루만)” is a song about an
unrequited love. Well, what could be more heartbreaking feeling when you fall
in love, right? When love becomes tears, streaming down from your eyes as your
heart breaks into pieces from the one-sided love you keep inside. “There’s nothing more to lose so I just cry
it out. You’re the one tear drop that fills my eyes. Love, that easy word, it’s
like a tear to me. So like a fool, I just let it falling down.” When love
becomes tears, flowing down on your face as your heart is hurt by that
out-of-reach person you have inside. “In
your eyes, it’s me who can’t reach you. In the end it’s only my heart that is
being hurt. It keeps falling down little by little, no matter how many times
I’ve tried to erase. It hurts me as you keep flowing down.” When love feels
so hard and devastating, making life seems so harsh and cruel. “I just want to love you with all my heart
even for just one day. I want to see you even for just one hour. Is love always
so hard like this? I don’t think that my heart is going to the way I want it
to. Tears stream down and linger on my chin. I’m afraid that it will fall, I
feel so disgust. Living doesn’t feel like living at all, what should I do? Only
you can save me, please think of me.”
The
hardest part of an unrequited love is when you realize that the one person whom
you love is irreplaceable but you can do nothing about it. As the feeling gets
deeper, you can’t get out from it, you can’t get rid of it, you will find
yourself desperately confess the desperate feeling. “I will tell you once again, I can’t go on if it’s not you. No one can
take your place, never. I love you, I shout out once again toward you that I
love you. It’s not enough to only think about us. Please, I beg you.” Begging,
hoping, and wishing, that just one day will be enough. One day to love that
person without any burden, to be with that person, for that person to stand by
you, to save you. But that’s just a wishful thinking. “I can breathe because it’s you, I can stand it because it’s you,
you’re the only one person. For just one day, I hope you will stay by my side
in this cruel life, like living a dream.” Before you know, love has
scattered in all over the place. And the worst thing has already happened;
you’re being used to the pain of that unrequited love. Even though it hurts, as
long as it’s for the sake of that person, you feel that everything is alright.
And a wish will always be a wish. “In my
eyes, the love for you that I can’t let go of, it falls down. Tears, please
take it away, so love won’t hurt anymore. Even if I live for just one day, it’s
you. Even though it hurts, it’s you. For just one day, please. If only I can
reach you for just one day.”

As
a bonus for the fans, Son Ho Young’s solo version of “Just One Day (하루만)”
was released as a part of the album titled “Marriage, Not Dating OST” on August
29th 2014. The differences between the original duet version and the solo
version –beside, of course, there’s no rap part in the solo version– are lied
in the lyrics in verse two and bridge part. I personally prefer the solo
version to the duet version, simply because I favor ballad music more than R n’
B ones. As a theme song for “Marriage, Not Dating” drama series, “Just One Day (하루만)”
represents the sad unrequited love that Gong Gi Tae (portrayed by Yeon Woo Jin)
felt toward Joo Jang Mi (portrayed by Han Groo), before he finally could
confess his feeling to her. Even for just for one more day, even though just a
fake relationship, Gi Tae would give his all to be with Jang Mi. “Just One Day (하루만)”
suits well with the series’ storyline, and indeed, it’s a beautiful soundtrack.
“In my
eyes, the love for you that I can’t let go of, it falls down. Tears, please
take it away, so love won’t hurt anymore. Even if I live for just one day, it’s
you. Even though it hurts, it’s you. For just one day, please. If only I can
reach you for just one day.” –Son Ho Young & Danny Ahn, Just One Day (OST. Marriage, Not Dating)
