Kang Eui Shik performing MOT’s “To You Who Hopes For My Despair” in episode 8 of Monstar.

The song came up in my ipod rotation this morning, and so I was happy to find the original scene on youtube because it’s just so incredibly powerful. My favorite scene of the series; it still makes me want to cry.

Translated lyrics:

To you, who hopes for my despair
I should give you my congratulations today
The friendly scorn that I received today
They suit me even more today

Laugh at me
All you want
Laugh at me
At me

No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
Swaying, swaying
No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
I’ll be broken every day

Laugh at me
At me

No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
Swaying, swaying
No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
I’ll be broken every day

No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
Little by little every day
No I’m not all right at all, all right at all
I’ll be broken every day

To you who hopes for my despair
Today won’t be any kind of celebratory day
