About these sets
Hopeful Romantic & Nostalgia, Part 2. Part 2 covers the gentler back half of Hopeful Romantic (2026) and the single Nostalgia that followed it. A love compared to the turning seasons, a crush that keeps saying no, and a closing song in which the rapper looks back at his seventeen-year-old self. The vocabulary moves from weather, seasons and teasing between a couple to growing up — fear, setbacks, putting things off, becoming an adult.
Hopeful Romantic & Nostalgia, Part 1. Hopeful Romantic (2026) answers the earlier heartbreak EP with a record about being happily, clumsily in love, and Nostalgia followed a month later as its coda. Part 1 covers the first five tracks: a love song built on the letter J, a confession that he is bad at romance, a look back at school trips and first crushes, and two songs about building a life together. Expect the Korean of dating and home life — pet names, moods, chores, promises.
Hopeless Romantic. Hopeless Romantic (2023) is BIG Naughty's break-up EP: seven songs about loving someone who stays a friend, drinking to the ballads he used to laugh at, and dreaming of a person who is gone by morning. The words here are the plain vocabulary of that story — regret, misunderstanding, lingering attachment, comforting someone, hiding how you feel. Most of it is everyday Korean you can reuse in any conversation about relationships.
