[LIST] 10 K-Pop Songs with the Funniest Engrish Ever

Most fans would agree that the ability of K-pop to reduce English to a nursery-school level is one of the most criticized elements of the genre. However, no one can deny that we all very much enjoy these WTF moments and, most of the time, in spite of their English snafus, we end up singing along with our favorite K-pop idols anyway.

The list of such songs is, basically, never-ending.  So, I have selected the top 10 songs that I think represent the ‘best of class’ English.

10. TVXQ – Purple Line

 

 Purple Line includes probably one of the most amusing abuses of English ever, which is curious, because the best lines and worst abuses were given to Yoochun, who is supposed to be able to speak English reasonably well, because he lived in The States for quite some time.

“It’s looks like purple line,” would simply be given an F-grade for grammar, but the best line ever is, “really wanna touch myself.”  (Yoochun, don’t you worry.  A lot of us fan-girls really wanna touch yourself, too!)  The line does make me wonder, though, if the lyricist somehow accidentally mixed up the lyrics with a porn movie script.  Hm.

9. U-Kiss – Dancing Floor

 

One of the most amusing “techniques” found is when lyrics sound like English, but when you look closer, they’re total rubbish.  U-KISS sings things like, “I’m a dancing floor,” “Hey everybody let’s keep a music on,” and most interestingly, “Can you feel the floor.” Well, maybe they mean you were dancing so hard you ended up on the floor, so you can feel it? Erm…

8.  Beast - Shock

 

Some of the lyrics look like a first-grade rhyming lesson.

“I can’t breath, like freeze / hey dear, stay here.”

  Best of all, though, is the chorus.

“Every day I shock (Shock! ), every night I shock (Shock! )”.  Wow!  I shock, too!

7. Kara - Pretty Girl

 

Some lyricists obviously need to take an English Grammar 101 class.

“If you want a pretty, every wanna pretty.”  Um.  No.

6. SHINee - Ring Ding Dong

Even the title sounds hilarious.  Okay, yes, I know it’s supposed to be onomatopoeia, but these lyrics make me fall out of my chair every time I hear them:

“We gonna go Rocka Rocka Rocka Rocka Rocka Rock
So fantastic
We gonna go Rocka Rocka Rocka Rocka Rocka Rock
So Elastic”

I get that it rhymes, but what does it mean?!  Not to mention the rocka-rocka part sounds like ‘cola cola’ to me.

5. Super Junior - Mr. Simple

 

Actually, we could pick any Super Junior song, because all of them are filled with nonsensical English, but I particularly like Mr. Simple:

“Because I naughty, naughty,
Hey! I’m Mr. Simple
Because I naughty, naughty(…)
Just Grab It Grab It”

Based on word choice, it really does seem like SM lyricists get some kind of inspiration from erotic movies, doesn’t it?

4. ZE:A - Mazeltov

I cannot figure out why any Korean band would want to sing about good luck in Hebrew.  I mean, they might as well sing in Russian next time.  But hey, to each his own.  Even when seasoned with bad grammar, WTF moments, the names of the days, and a hilarious list of girls from different countries, I still find myself singing along.

“It shut it down, Love
It shut it down, Blind
It shut it down, Passion
Break it down, Red beat down, Knock you down, Here we go.
Latin girl, Mexican girl, Korean girl, Japan girl.
Mazeltov, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday”

3. EXO - Mama

 

In the most notorious abuse of English, this little gem, again by SM Entertainment, attempts to sell us nonsensical sentences as–Latin? Well, you know you could have just used a real Latin text, right?  Really.

Careless
Careless
Shoot anonymous
Anonymous
Heartless
Mindless
No one who care about me

2. T-ara - Yayaya

 

Next, is a textbook example of how NOT to sing in English. The lyrics to T-ara’s Yayaya mixes random English words with “sounds” that are supposed to mimic–what exactly?  Native Americans?  Something.  Poor No Min-woo, he probably went through hell at the music video shooting. To top it off, the Korean lyrics don’t seem to make all that much sense, either.

“Yo ma Yo ma Lova Lova 
Yo ma Yo ma Supa Nova
U Hee U U Hee
Oh Go it Go it Go it Go Go it Go Go it Go”

 1. JYJ - Mission 

The ‘Number One Abuse of English Award’ goes to one of my favourite bands, JYJ. As much as I love these guys for their vocal talents, their English lyrics writing skills are terribly lacking. While Mission’s main lyrics were written by JUNO (Kim Junsu‘s twin brother), the rap section was penned by Yoochun who, again, is supposed to speak English well.  Really?  In any case, I am just unable to make any sense of these lines at all. Some of them actually seem to suggest the use of Google 

“Mission make it mission lets go mission make it make it go~
I must go make it mission lets go mission make it go~
I must go make it mission lets go mission make it go~
I want u screaming JYJ verse2

What’s that baby what u baby

Probably you’re money is unpublic
Try to save my life like a puppy & cream
Another hot movie character bumble bee treat me
like a slave & I pray is it Halloween
Trick or treats oh please
don’t even try to pull my head own you’re way
Brand new person,
A man? So fuck off no more talk

Yeah no another sounds can’t make it your body mores
Just one truth is without you’re mind
and you heart there is no me”

[LIST] 11 K-Pop Music Videos Older Fans Will Remember

1. BIGBANG - Haru Haru

Always sad to see GD and T.O.P fighting over a silly girl.

2. BIGBANG - LIES

3. 2PM - Again & Again

When Jay Park and 2PM were still friends...

4. 2PM & Girls Generation  - Cabi Song

When older fans actually had a good reason to fanboy/fangirl (maybe this was when Nickhun and Tiffany realized they had thing for each other, just putting it out there.) 

5. Wonder Girls - Nobody

Who could forget the time when JYP ran out of toilet paper in the toilet.

6. Girls' Generation - Gee 

How these mannequins came to life and became every boy's dream.

7. Super Junior - Sorry, Sorry 

Remember how every time you wanted to apologize for something, you'd jump into this dance routine and sing 'shorry, shorry nega nega something'?

8. SHINee - Ring Ding Dong

And five years later no one still knows what 'Ring Ding Dong' actually means...

9. Brown Eyed Girls- Abracadabra

Remember how the netizens were going crazy because they thought Ga-In and Narsha were kissing in the MV? Oh, and this was before everyone knew how old BEG actually was.

10. TVXQ - Mirotic

One of TVXQ's last songs together. All dat rope action... 

11. BIGBANG & 2NE1 - Lollipop 

Before 2NE1 became the baddest girls in Korea, their feature on this song made everyone want one of those LG Lollipop phones.
