About words

🔸大丈夫

The word "大丈夫" is incredibly versatile because its meaning changes depending on the context. For example, it can mean "Are you okay?" or "No thanks," among other things. In this context, it’s used to offer comfort, similar to saying "It’s okay," "Don’t worry," or something along those lines.

🔸七色

"七" means seven, "色" means color, and "橋" means bridge. I know that the perception of a rainbow’s colors can vary depending on the country. In Japan, it’s common knowledge that a rainbow has seven colors, so "七色の橋" is a more romantic way of referring to a rainbow.

From Editor

Nostalgic... So nostalgic. This song is used as the opening theme for Japanese famous drama Gokusen. Everyone in my generation watched this drama.

The story is quite unique—in other words, it’s not very realistic, lol. In short, it’s about a young teacher who is the daughter of Yakuza family, teach a lot of things for delinquent students, and grow up together.

If you’re interested, please check out this drama too.
