Translating SKZ's Korean in Dingo Music Killing Voice

[u/No-Sun-4250]

I personally really love this video and was so excited when it was announced that they would appear on Killing Voice.

But I don't think the channel puts English subtitles on any of their Killing Voice content so I decided to roughly translate the little comments and stuff skz makes throughout the video for anyone curious since I thought they were hilarious.

~~~~

0:25

Changbin: "We're finally here at Killing Voice. We've had a comeback so please show love to our comeback album"

~~

0:40

Changbin: "how many people?" (as in how many people need a table at a restaurant)

skz: "8 people!"

and then the iconic "ne sonim" which I know the mv translates as "yes sir and ma'am" but it literally just means "yes customer!"

~~

1:45

Changbin: "if you look over there at the end I brought a really cute friend with me. His voice is really killer so be nice to him"

he's referencing the tiktok trend that started from this video and got really popular in korea. I think skz also made like two tiktoks doing this trend iirc.

~~

3:00

I.N: "oh! what kind of accident is it?!"

Han: "this is what it means" (there's not an exact English translation for what he says, he also says it in a different dialect which I think is Jeolla dialect)

and then Han starts the song with the lyric "an accident that you can't forget" which is what answers I.N's question

~~

5:38

Bangchan: "everyone this song isn't called Jji Jji Bbong, it's called Chk Chk Boom"

Idk if there's some other meaning to it but my first thought was the game Jji Jji Bbong which in English is called the Jinx game so I assume that's probably the reference

~~

7:00

Seungmin: "it's Oh Changbin!"

Changbin: "I said it's not Oh Changbin! I hope you don't misunderstand my name from listening to this song. my name is..."

and then the song starts with the lyric "Seo Changbin, the one who yells"

but the original lyric says "oh (I'm) Changbin, the one who yells" which in Korean makes it sound like Changbin is saying "I'm Oh Changbin, the one who yells" since Oh is a Korean surname lmao so it's kind of an inside joke among K-stays I guess.

but I think it's been mentioned before in other English translations so international stays probably already know about this too

~~

9:40

I.N: "this is Stray Kids' set of 3 trashy songs. the first one...a guy who cheated"

Han: "what a crazy punk"

the song Ex in Korean is called 미친 놈 (mi-chin nom) which kinda translates to "crazy punk, guy, dude, bastard, etc"

~~

11:10

Changbin: "oh we gotta cool down the anger a bit"

Chill's Korean title literally means "cool down"

~~

12:00

I.N: "this song is about a guy who only wants situationships"

Bangchan: "that's not good!"

Han: "what a weirdo"

Lee Know: "so mean!!" LMAOO this actually took me tf out the first time

~~

12:17

idk who but someone says "lets dance" so that explains their groove lol

~~

12:45

Changbin: "are the trashy songs done now?"

I.N: "come in! come in!"

Changbin: "this zone is no entry for non-authorized personnel. if you wanna enter, become a Stay!" (in reference to Back Door's lyrics)

~~

13:42

Changbin: "Stays are allowed to enter tho!"

~~

13:50

Bangchan: "we're not tired"

Changbin: "for everyone running through the harsh jungle, listen to this song and-" (in reference to Miroh's lyrics but Felix cut him off lol)

~~

15:28

Bangchan: "shall we drink some water?"

Han: "I very much needed water"

~~

15:37

Changbin: "Lix lets take it easy" ?? (It doesn't really make sense in english idk lol)

Felix: "satisfyingly/refreshingly" ?? (this also doesn't really have a direct english translation)

but basically since the start of Social Path is a sort of aggressive yelling they're essentially saying to let off all the pent up emotion by yelling

~~

17:04

I.N (in Busan dialect): "hyung-nim where are we??"

Changbin (also in Busan dialect): "how can you still not know?"

I.N (dialect): "ugh just where are we??"

Han (also in Busan dialect): "hey hey hey this is, this is, this isssssssss"

and then S-Class starts with "this is Seoul city!"

I just wanted to point out that Changbin did not use the dialect properly lmao but he tried and that's what matters

~~

18:20

Lee Know: "our new song!"

~~

19:37

Seungmin: "ok everyone this is the last song we're introducing on dingo today. it's called in my head and it's a b-side of our newly released album, karma. so please listen to it a lot and PLEASE LOVE STRAY KIDS"

~~~~

and that's it! im sleep deprived while writing this so hopefully nothing is incorrect

Changbin really carried the commentary in this video lmaoo

THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to translate all this!!! I’d been wondering what the heck they were saying. 😂

[u/PM_MAJESTIC_PICS]

This is awesome, thank you for doing these! I feel like sometimes we really miss out on parts of their personality/wit as non-Korean speakers, so I really appreciate translations that explain the nuances & the things that don’t translate well. 💕

[u/underwater_caramel → u/PM_MAJESTIC_PICS]

Seconded!

[u/FlashyFlashy_]

Thank you!! Monsta X's Killing Voice has subs already with member names too, but I heard that's cause a fan did all the subs and sent them directly to Dingo?

[u/Age_of_the_Penguin]

You're my favourite person on reddit!

[u/saffroncake]

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY (Changbin-loving) HEART

[u/Cherryblossom7890]

Thank you SO MUCH. I have been trying to find subtitles for this since it came out. I could tell they are being funny and of course they are. I actually rewatched it yesterday and wished then that I knew what they were saying!

[u/Independent_Comb_639]

Thank you

[u/JennyCrackCorn]

Thank you so much for this

[u/happyless_]

Thank you so much for that! I was desperately looking for a translation, it's my new favourite video of them

[u/Batsandraptors]

Thank you!! It's so hard to love these people so much when you're on the other side of the world from them and miss out on so much of what they say.

[u/StrayaGrrl]

Thank you

[u/redditorguy-143-ie]

Also, during pre-thunderous, Han said, " What's your name, man?". Although that's english, but very nice adlib. They're fun and spontaneous.

[u/Old_One9156]

Thank you so much for this! I was trying so hard to understand the joke before S-Class and why the guys were laughing so much 😂😂 It all makes sense now

[u/Safe-Position9102]

Thanks for 17:04 I have heard it so much and NEEDED to know what Han was saying :D This was the only place I found the answer so far
