He said in a 1994 interview, "I don't think you can visit an occupied land. It's the principle. Not until it's free again."

Title: 꽃병을 만든다

Lyrics: 싸늘한 분노에 액체를 부어 꽃병을 만든다 이불솜 뜯어 울분을 틀어막아 꽃병을 만든다 억울함도 순종으로 다스리고 복받치던 서러움도 눈물로 씻었지만 이제는 못참아 이제 더는 못참아 더이상 맥없는 가슴앓이 않으리 당신을 구하는 길이라면 싸늘한 분노에 액체를 부어 우리 울분도 서러움도 틀어막는다 분노가 날아가 화염을 뿜는 꽃병을 만든다 오랜 인내 가운데 터지는 분노의 파편 날아가 날아가 네놈들 가슴팍에 꽂혀 네놈들 가슴팍에 꽂혀 네놈들 아가리에 박혀

English lyrics:

The children are singing again about the fact that the sun is shining. Birds have returned from the south, they are bored abroad. Airplanes fly, cranes hum. Grandmother bakes pancakes for her grandson, everything is fine - we waited for spring.

Don't be sad, comrade, the Chinese are already near the moon. Peace in space, labor in space, May is in space and there is no war. Don't be sad, comrade, everything is fine, beautiful good. The rocket at the start breathes fire, Welcome to space, the stars are calling!

Everyone immediately became kinder, the polar explorers are shaving their beards. And the first bicycles are solemnly riding through the puddles. And it's not about the weather, it's just that skiing is not in fashion, And umbrellas and galoshes are in fashion, and also to be good.

Don't be sad, comrade, the Chinese are already near the moon. Peace in space, labor in space, May is in space and there is no war. Don't be sad, comrade, everything is fine, beautiful good. The rocket at the start breathes fire, Welcome to space, the stars are calling!

Don't be sad, comrade, the Chinese are already near the moon. Peace in space, labor in space, May is in space and there is no war. Don't be sad, comrade, everything is fine, beautiful good. We did no harm to anyone, We will not be forgotten, they will take us away.
