 잘 지내시는가요 여러분

How have you been, everyone?

안부 묻기가 무색한 요즘이지만

Though these days, it feels awkward to even ask how you are

하루하루 보내고 보내고 하다보니

As I keep spending day after day*

*If translated for rhythm: Day by day, as I keep sending them off and sending them off 

어느덧 12월 완연한 겨울입니다

Before I knew it, it’s December—a full-fledged winter

4일 뒤면 입대 1년이 되는군요

In four days, it will have been a year since I enlisted

이번 크리스마스는 함께하지 못하고

I won’t be able to spend this Christmas with you

다큐 정도로 인사드리는 게 고작이지만

And even though I can only greet you through a documentary

항상 마음은 진심만은 곁에 함께하고 있다고 퍽 믿어주시고 느껴주셨으면 합니다

I truly hope you believe and feel that my heart is always sincerely by your side. 

제 욕심일런지요

Is this too much to ask?

시간이 그렇고 또 벌어지는 많은 일들이 그러합니다

Time is like that, and so are the many things that are unfolding

최근엔 멤버들과도 자주 통화하곤 합니다.

Lately I’ve also been having frequent (phone) conversations with the members.

같이 살고 숨쉬고 지내고 할 때보다 조금 더 가까워진 것 같기도 하고

Strangely enough, it feels like we’ve become a bit closer than when we lived and breathed together.

이상하죠 삶이라는 게 참 그런가봐요

Isn’t it strange? Life, I guess, is really like that

이것 말고 다른 말에 힘이 있을까요

Other than this, would any words have more meaning?

보고싶고. 그냥 그렇습니다

I miss you. That’s just how it is

제 나름대로 이것저것 보고 읽고 쓰고 하며

In my own way, I’m watching, reading, and writing this and that

또 다가올 전역의 해를 준비하고 있습니다

Preparing for the year of my discharge that’s approaching

아직 좀 남았지만은

Though there’s still some time left

25년은 좀 더 뜻깊게 보내보고 싶어서요

I want to spend 2025 a little more meaningfully

건강합시다! 아프면 서러우니까요 외로우니까요

Let’s stay healthy! Because it’s sorrowful to be unwell, and lonely too

보고싶네요

I miss you

이 긴긴 겨울도 잘 뚫고 가보아요 하하하

Let’s make it through this long, long winter well—haha.

한 해 건네주신 많은 사랑 감사합니다 감사합니다

Thank you, thank you for all the love you’ve given me this year

사랑하고 있습니다 종종 생각하겠습니다 마음을 다해서

I love you. I’ll think of you often, with all my heart

부디 그저 모두 안녕히!

I hope, simply, that everyone stays well!
