Talk:Sim Soo-bong

Regarding translation:

심수봉은 "당시 박정희 전 대통령을 처음 만났을 때, 미소라 히바리의 '슬픈 술'(가나시이 사케)을 첫곡으로 불렀는데 그 곡을 부른 이유는 주변의 사람들이 불러라고 권유해서 불렀던 것이다. 신문에 실린 기사에는 박 대통령이 그 노래를 듣고 '너 일본 사람이냐'며 좋아했다고 되어 있는데 사실은 그렇지 않다"고 밝혔다.

이어 심수봉은 "곡이 끝나자 박대통령은 버럭 '어디서 왜년을 데리고 왔느냐'며 화를 냈다. 이어 내가 '눈물젖은 두만강'과 '황성옛터'를 불렀더니 그제서야 한국 가수인 줄 알고 미안함을 나타내며 좋아했다"고 밝혔다.

Sim Su Bong said, "At the time when I first met president Park Chung Hee, I sang Misora Hibari's Ganasiyi Sake as the first song; the reason I sang that song is because people around suggested [or advised] that I sing it. In the newspaper article, it says that President Park heard that song and said "Are you Japanese" affably [he liked it], but that's not the truth", she revealed.

Sim Su Bong continued, "As soon as the song ended, President Park yelled [or abruptly said], "Where did you get the Japanese girl," and became angry. When I continued with the songs [two korean songs], only then did he realize that I was a Korean singer, and showed apology [or regret], and became affable [he liked it].

Notes on translation:

좋아했다 simply means "liked" but is hard to translate in the context of the above sentences, where the affable emotion is shown at the same time as another verb action, and there is no clear object of the verb "to like".

어디(where) 서(from) 왜(Japanese) 년(girl) 을(object operator) 데리(bring) 고(and) 왔(came) 느냐(question ending): 왜 is a possibly derogatory term for Japanese, and 년 is a usually mildly derogatory term for girl or woman. However, both terms were used historically in nonderogatory ways, and 년 is not the same as "bitch." "개년" (dog woman/girl) has roughly the same meaning and vulgarity as "bitch," and not something the President is likely to have said.

The current translation implying that Park liked it when he thought Sim was Japanese, is completely wrong, and opposite of the linked article's wording. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chuniac (talk • contribs) 21:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

'81 or '84 ban?

In a part of the text, the date until when she was banned in Korean tv is 1984, but in other mention 1981 as the ban date. Wich one is the real?--HCPUNXKID (talk) 14:21, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
