When I read “Piggy Dolls Lose Some Weight for Their Come Back Album”, the 1st thing that came across my mind is “So? They are just like anybody else in the industry, no?” Where did their debut concept go? The concept about a girl group that doesn’t look stick-thin came to break the stereotype because they (wow) have talent was about every where, every time, Piggy Dolls was around. Talent is all that matter, not look (Thanks God). Oh really dude?
Hurl. They tried too hard with their concept, it drove me a bit sarcastic: Here come the hypocrisy. Yes, they are talented, but wait! They are not just talented but also not stick-thin. No, I should write: They are not stick-thin and they are talented. How they look like should be put at first. Look all the effort to make these girls bigger than they really are. All those wardrobes are fugly, it is a crime, eeepp! Poor girls. I mean even people with size bigger than the average can look amazing, if they dress right. Did they even realize by emphasizing they are NOT thin, means look DOES matter? The only thing that makes them different from the rest was when the others sell their slim-body-ant-waist-honey-thigh-long-slender-legs figure, Piggy Dolls sell everything-that-the-others-have-not figure.
And then their album went flop. So in rush, they changed their concept. Girl, I’m-happy-with-my-full-figure concept didn’t work, you’ve gotta slim down for your next album. News about Piggy Dolls lose weight was out. But I could not careless. Since news about idols has slimmed down is just another day in K pop world. And news about idols confessing or denying they got plastic surgery is heard like everyday.
You know what I care? Their new song, 아는여자 This Girl I Know. That song is catchy. I keep replaying it on my playlist. So do my friends. I think it is way better than their debut single, Trend, that is all about image conscious. Perhaps thing that many people, including me, want is just a silly, easy-to-connect song. A song tells about every day girl’s life. Song that can be hummed when we do the laundry, clean the house, or drive car to work. And just having good talent, like powerful, amazing voice, is not enough. Some of my friend do have good voice but they don’t become singer, why is that? And why there are plenty of singers with good voice, but some of them are succeed, some are just not? It is because it needs more than good talent, i.e. good vocal. Perhaps at the end, without having to emphasize it, it is not about their look that matter. It is the song, the music.

[lyric, romanization, translation]
난 몰라 아잉~
Nan molla aing...
I don't know aing..
사랑에 잠을 설쳐본적 있나요
Sarange jameul seolchyeo bonjeok inayo
Have you ever been in love till you can't sleep?
가슴이 두근두근 뛰어본적 있나요
Gaseumi dugeun dugeun ttwieobonjeok inayo
Has your heart ever get goose bumps?
사랑 사랑 사랑에 오~
Sarang sarang sarange o...
Love love love you o...
사랑에 아파 울어본적 있나요
Sarange apha ureobunjeok inayo
Have you ever been in love till you cry in pain?
가슴을 콕콕콕콕 바늘로 찔르는 느낌
Gaseumeul khuk khuk khuk khuk baneullo jjilleureuneun neukkim
Heart khuk khuk khuk khuk, feel like having been stabbed
아야 아야 사랑에 오~
Aya aya sarange o...
Aya aya love o....
밥 먹을때도 너만 생각이 나
Bap meokgeulttaedo neoman saenggagi na
When I'm eat, I think of you
가슴이 찌릿찌릿 자꾸 저려와
Gaseumi jjiri jjiri jakku jeoryeowa
Heart keeps hurt, it becomes numbed
밥이 목구멍에 넘어가질 않어
Bapi mokkumeong e neomeogajil aneo
Rice can't be swallowed
나어떻게 할지 모르겠어
Na eotteoke halji moreugesseo
I don't know what to do
아 왜 이렇게 사랑은 또 시작됐는지
A whae ireoke sarangeun tto sijak dwaetneunji
Oh Why? How? And Whether even love has to start
아 왜 이렇게 하염없이 끌려가는지
A whae ireoke hayeomeopsi kkeullyeo ganeunji
Oh Why? How? Whether it will be last forever
또 아는동생이라고 말할게 뻔한데
Tto aneun deongsaeng irago malhalke ppeonande
Even obviously you say this girl I know called sister
나 이제 그런 아는여자 싫어
Na ije geureon aneun yeoja sirheo
Now, I don't wanna be this girl I know
아~잔인한 사람 아 잔인한 사랑
A.. janinan saram a janinan sarang
Oh what a cruel person, oh what a cruel love
정말 모르겠다 모르겠다
Jeongmal moreugetda moreugetda
I don't know, I really don't know
내맘을 모르는 너
Naemameul moreuneun neo
You who don't know my heart
사랑에 발을 삐어본적 있나요
Sarange bareul ppieobonjeok inayo
Have you ever been hurt by love?
눈 앞에 아찔아찔
Nun aphe ajji ajji
Looks tribbly tribbly painful
벼락 떨어지는 느낌
Byeorak tteoreojineun neukkim
Feels like been shot down by lightning
엄마야 엄마야 어떻해 난
Eommaya eommaya eotteoke nan
Oh mother, mother, what should I do?
영화 볼때면 더욱 생각이나
Yeonghwa bolttaemyeon deouk saenggagina
When I watch movie, the more I think of you
자꾸만 주인공이 내 얘기 같아
Jakkuman juingongi nae yegi gatha
Like always be the hero of my own story
눈물이 앞을 가려
Nunmuri apheul garyeo
Tears keep falling
숨이 탁탁 막혀 (근데)
Sumi thak thak makhyeo (geunde)
Hard to breath (How?)
콧물은 왜 자꾸 나는 걸까
Khotmureun whae jakku naneun geolkka
Why I keep sniveling?
아 왜 이렇게 사랑은 또 시작됐는지
A whae ireoke sarangeun tto sijakdwaetneunji
Oh Why? How? Whether love has to start
아 왜 이렇게 하염없이 끌려가는지
A whae ireoke hayeomeopsi kkeullyeo ganeunji
Oh Why? How? Whether it will be last forever
또 아는동생이라고 말할게 뻔한데
Tto aneun dongsaeng irago malhalke ppeonande

아~잔인한 사람 아 잔인한 사랑
A... janinan saram a janinan sarang
Oh what a cruel person, Oh what a cruel love
정말 모르겠다 모르겠다
Jeongmal moreugetda moreugetda
I don't know, I really don't know
내맘을 모르는 너
Naemameul moreuneun neo
You who don't know my heart
사랑한다 말해줄듯 말 듯 왜
Saranghanda malhaejuldeut mal deut whae
You seem less and less saying I love you, why?
자꾸 내 맘을 줬다 폈다 가지고 놀아 왜
Jakku nae mameul jwotda phyeotda gajigo nora whae
You keep on and off my heart, and playing with it, why?
아 글쎄 내 맘도 몰라주는데 왜
A geussae nae mamdo mollajuneunde whae
Oh dunno, why my heart never know that
왜 자꾸 설레이냐고
Whae jakku seolleinyago
Why it keeps going flutter
슈비루밥 빠
Syubi robap ppa
Syubi robap ppa
아 왜 이렇게 사랑은 또 시작됐는지
