어떤X – Bilingual Lyrics Korean/English

• By: Jessi

Lyrics & Translation

Ready to learn Korean with an attitude? Jessi's '어떤X (What Type of X)' is your perfect starting point. The song's repetitive and catchy chorus, '내가 어떤 X인 것 같아?' (naega eotteon X-in geot gata?), which translates to 'What type of X do you think I am?', is a fantastic and empowering phrase to learn. This track is special not only for its powerful message of self-confidence but also for its clever wordplay, making it a fun and memorable way to dive into the nuances of the Korean language and modern K-Pop culture.

[English]

I'm a different kind of beast

I'm a different kind of beast, beast, beast

I'm a different kind of beast, but it's okay

Makeup a bit heavier (yah), I’m born to be the boss

Something draws me in, hashtag daily life (uh-huh)

I’m so good at being bad, I’m proud of those days

Driving you wild (crazy)

I see you’re hypnotized, I can tell from your eyes

Yeah, just because I’m different doesn’t mean I’m wrong (I’m not wrong)

Yeah, don’t judge, you don’t know life (you don’t know, oh oh)

I don’t need to be the one, just for you

So don’t be surprised, why are you acting all competitive

Do you really wanna test me?

What do you think I am? (uh)

...

Do you really wanna? (do you really wanna?)

What do you think I am?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (do you really wanna?)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (baby)

What do you think I am?

Fashion a little sexy, attitude a bit more bold

Compared to you, I’m spicy, learning about others (aw)

I’m so bad at being good, sometimes I mess up

I’m not your type of lady (no, no)

I see you’re hypnotized, I can tell from your eyes

Yeah, just because I’m different doesn’t mean I’m wrong (I’m not wrong)

Yeah, don’t judge, you don’t know life (you don’t know, oh oh)

I don’t need to be the one, just for you

So don’t be surprised, why act all competitive

Do you really wanna test me?

What do you think I am? (uh)

Do you really wanna? (do you really wanna?)

What do you think I am?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (do you really wanna?)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (baby)

What do you think I am?

I'm never satisfied, a greedy girl

Keep my things close all day long

Thanks to my ex, I move on to the next

The crazy girl of this area

Never satisfied, a greedy girl

Keep my things close all day long

Thanks to my ex, I move on to the next

The crazy girl of this area

I'm a different kind of beast

I'm a different kind of beast, beast, beast

I'm a different kind of beast, but it's okay

Feeling so good, it's great to be alive (oh, oh)

Yeah, I’m a damn rock star (oh, oh)

Feeling feeling feeling, it’s so good to be alive (oh, oh)

It feels so good (I’m the baddest of the alive)

I’m the baddest of the bad

Bring it back, I’m a damn rock star

...
