Dogr & Sung Hwan Kim - Story of 1968 Lyrics
Official




The year was 1968
Tonight was a cold December night
The air was cold
This means that he closed his arms
Just like birds
Their wings on their heart
Only spiders have their legs away from the heart
But they walk fast to keep the heart warm in the winter
You are a man
Spread your chest and straighten your back
U suh u suh
His father raised his voice and scolded him

Ja ja let's have dinner now
His mother entered the room with a portable table
He frowned his face after seeing what is on the table
It is kang naeng ee again
How can we eat this every single day
I want white rice
Do not eat anything if you will complain like that
Get out of the room, his father said
Ja ja think of all the kids up north who are starving to death
They feed on roots and dirt
Didn't I tell you about the war
When your uncle had to cut out a slice of his hip to feed the children
How lucky you are
Eat eat ja ja
His eyes swelled up with tears
He scooped up kang naeng ee and put it in his mouth
He put the second scoop into his mouth

Moon

The plates were cleared from the table
This time, the table became a desk for him to do his homework
It was Then
The door flung open
Raise your arms
All of you
Men with big metal guns came into the room
The tips of the gun were sharp and pointy
He raised his arms
The wind from the door blew into his armpits
He breathed in shortly, and he breathed out longer to keep the heat inside him
Bring rice
He ordered the mother
We do not have rice
We only have kang naeng ee
Bring the kang naeng ee then
The men were hungry
One man's hunger might have been silent
But the bellies of many men could be heard

Beating bellies under the moon, sliced by a cloud

Ya komaya, do you like north or south better
One of the men asked
He could smell the inside of the man's gut each time the man opened his mouth
He stared at the man
The man stared at him
He opened his mouth
The cold air touched his tongue
The tongue naturally shrank from the sudden coldness
After hearing the words of this mouth, the man said, ani, we should correct the habit of your tongue
He pulled out a machete from the sleeve and ripped the right side of his cheek
From the edge of his mouth to the start of his earlobe
What did the boy say

Nan kong san tang ee sil eu yo

These words were to be repeated by many mouths that remained intact ever since then
