I’ve been completely dragged into Cheritz’s most recent game Mystic Messenger and can’t stop looping the opening song in both Korean and English.
You can download the game on your phone here: Android | iOS
I wondered how it would sound in Japanese so as a little translation exercise for myself I translated it into Japanese from the English lyrics. Unfortunately I can’t read Korean. Maybe I’ll pick it up in the future but not any time soon. I tested it out by singing it myself and it does work… I should hope!!! There are bits where syllables are going to be bunched up but it’s passable according to my Japanese friend LOL. I made her read and sing it for me too haha.
Enjoy!
EDIT: ANOTHER FRIEND DID A COVER *SOBS* SUCH AN ANGEL. She got the rhythm down mhmm~♥♥♥ Here’s the link!!!
EDIT2: Changed 「ドキドキしている」 to 「ドキドキしてるよ」

(I just got your messages)
Every morning I wake up to the same sweet sound,
Picking up my cell phone that’s been ringing.
Wondering what’s new? What have I missed? I was offline.
Anyway I will end up hearing your story.
How are you doing today?
Same questions every single day.
Please know that I’m not good at asking you.
Your face lights up laughing from the jokes I’ve made.
You would never guess that I am suspicious.
(Ticktok ticktok time is running out. What are you doing now?)
I don’t know where you are, don’t even know your name.
They think I’m crazy. My heartbeat goes up.
Words cannot express my love for you.
Did you get mysterious messages?
It’s a piece of the puzzle.
The letters are the only clues to solving hidden mysteries
Did you get mysterious messages?
If you can feel the trace, that is me. Call me out
I’ve been watching you from the start
Remember yesterday how we texted on and on and on?
I have never met someone so pure like you.
Imagine something new that is fully out of this world,
You and me let’s marry in the space station.

毎朝、同じ音に目が覚めて
鳴ってた携帯を拾い上げる
いない間に何があったのかな?
また君のことを知るだろう
「今日も元気?」
またこれの繰り返し
他に何聞けばいいのか?
僕のジョークにいつも笑ってくれる
「怪しい」と思わないだろう
(チクタク 時間がない 今何してるんだ?)
どこにいるか、名前すら知らない
バカみたいって。ドキドキしてるよ。
この愛に言葉じゃ足りない。
Did you get mysterious messages?
謎の欠片なんだ
隠したミステリーを解く唯一のカギ
Did you get mysterious messages?
僕のトレース感じたら言ってくれ

君ほどピュアな子はいない
あり得ない新たな想像をしよう
宇宙で僕と結婚しよう
