title: 꿈을 파는 가게 (the shop that sells dreams) (feat. Bob James & Mayson the Soul)
artist: 크루셜스타 (crucial star)
album: midnight
translator’s note: ‘발길을 뜮다’ means ‘to stop going to a place’ but can also connote the idea of being away for a while or even becoming a stranger. i decided to translate it as ‘forgotten’ to keep the flow going. i really love this album for many of the topics that are covered (and of course, the music). please do take the opportunity to check it out!

크루셜스타 (Crucial Star) – Pretty Girl (feat. Lovey)

title: pretty girl (feat. lovey)
artist: 크루셜스타 (crucial star)
album: midnight
translator’s note: it’s interesting that he never blatantly says the plastic surgery clinic. however given how big it is in korea, listeners can understand the references pretty quickly in the first verse alone. and when lovey jumps in with the woman’s perspective, it kind of says a lot… on a side note, apgujeong station is in the gangnam district (aka upscale everything).

(I hope this song opens your eyes especially, hey…)
