“Gyeongju, where you first held my hand…”
“…and never let go.”
I wore hanbok, sky so blue
You said I looked like a queen to you
We danced past walls that whispered names
But ours, oh babe, will never fade
Golden tiles and sunset breeze
Your laughter echoed through the trees
Lanterns lit and temples high
But your smile stole the sky
Cheomseongdae stars in your eyes
My heart races through Hwangridan nights
Gyeongju’s old, but this feels new
Every step I take, I fall for you
You shine like Gyeongju, brighter than gold
Even time can’t make this love grow old
Our names in stone, our hearts in light
With you, the past feels just right
From royal paths to bike ride laughs
We're writing history on this map
You shine like Gyeongju, can't deny
This love was born beneath this sky
Coffee stop, you tease me slow
Your scarf flies wild in hanbok flow
You spin me once, we almost fall
But I don’t mind — I’ve got it all
Tourists pass, but I just see
A thousand years looking back at me
Through you, this city’s more alive
With every laugh, I feel us thrive
If love had form, it’d look like this
Pagodas, sunset, one shared kiss
Let history sing what we can’t say
Gyeongju, remember us this way
You shine like Gyeongju, fire and flame
In Seokguram light, I see your name
Let ages turn, let stories pass
We found forever built to last
Hold my hand in palace light
You and me — just feels so right
You shine like Gyeongju, hear me say:
“I’d choose you again, every day”
“From Gyeongju… to us.”
