‘Jewel Box of My Heart’ (Nae Maeum-e Boseok Sangja) is the song that Soo-ho sings for Young-ro in the drama’s epilogue.
The lyrics describe a love that the singer cherishes in his heart like a jewel. Though they loved each other deeply, they were unable to be together. Even so, that love remains in his heart. ‘I can’t show my heart to anyone. No one knows of it. Even so, until the final moment when I have to forget you, I want to love you forever.’ I’m not crying, you’re crying.

난 알고 있는데 우리는 사랑하고 있다는 것을
Nan algo inneun-de uri-neun sarang-hago itta-neun geos-eul
I know it, the fact that we are in love
우린 알고 있었지 서로를 가슴 깊이 사랑한다는 것을
Urin algo isseott-ji seoro-reul gaseum gip-i sarang-handa-neun geos-eul
We knew, didn’t we, that we love each other deeply
햇빛에 타는 향기는 그리 오래가지 않기에
Haetbich-e ta-neun hyanggi-neun geuri orae gaji ahngi-e
We loved a dream that shone all the higher
더 높게 빛나는 꿈을 사랑했었지

For the fact that the scent riding on the sunlight doesn’t last long
