Update 12/27/10
Romanizing system has been overhauled again. This time, instead of trying to write out how everything is supposed to sound in English, I combined the “proper” way to romanize Korean with the literal pronunciation style I’ve been using lately. Some sounds that “crossover” into the next character (i.e. 검은 can be guhm eun or guh meun) have been romanized according to ease of reading/understanding. Hopefully, these changes allow a more “natural” flow as you read and sing along to your favorite songs. I still highly recommend that you learn how to pronounce Korean. It helps a lot!
In other news, have you noticed the Japanese lyrics being posted to the site? I expanded the site to include Japanese musicians! Sadly, I can’t romanize anything right now, but I hope to in the future. Hope you like it!

PS. Whenever you see 의 (eui), it could sound like eh or yeh because the singer is pronouncing it quickly. ; O

Hello! We haven’t officially posted an introduction here on humming lyrics°, so here it is! Welcome, visitor!
After months of working on humming lyrics°, how do you like it so far? Are there parts of the site we can improve on? Are the romanizations easy to read? Please feel free to leave comments/feedback/suggestions here! Also, you may suggest some Korean indie artists that you would like to see on this site.
Anyway, if you’re wondering about the lyrics translations, currently our only translator is inactive and MIA. Apologies for the lack of translations. ) : The most we can provide are romanizations for now. We hope to find some future translators though. If you’re interested in being a translator, please check out the Recruiting tab above!
That’s all for now!
