울지마 (ul-ji-ma)
Meaning:
1. Don’t cry
About this WOD:
An easy way to remember this is to think about the words 울다 (ul-da) and 하지마 (ha-ji-ma), which mean cry and do not, respectively. If you put the two together, you get “don’t cry”, or (ul-ji-ma).
Examples:
- DBSK/TVXQ’s Don’t Cry My Lover
사랑아 울지마 널 데려갈지 몰라
Saranga uljima nol deryogalji molla
My love, don’t cry. I don’t know if I should take you away with me - FT Island’s Even Your Tears
그대 울지마 사랑해 그대 눈물까지도
Geudae uljima saranghae geudae nunmulkkajido
Don’t cry my dear, I love you, even your tears - CNBlue’s Now Or Never
울지마 앉지마 조금 힘들 수도 있잖아
Uljima anhjima jogeum himdeul sudo ittjanha
Don’t cry. Don’t sit down. It could be a little difficult. - Miss A’s Goodbye Baby
(니가 어떤 앤지 알았어) 괜히 울지 마

I know what kind of person you are don’t even bother crying - Hello To Myself from Dream High 2
Hello to myself hello to myself 울지 말라고 날 위로해줄래
