언젠가 니 사랑이 되는 날

Are you studying with a Korean Music/lyrics?

Your sentence is not coversational.It's more like poem.

언젠가 (내가) 니 사랑이 되는 날(?)
언젠가 (내가) (니->너의) 사랑이 되는 날(?)

In this sentence, 니 사랑 means "your love".
:roll: :roll: :roll:

죄송합니다. as a Korean.
작가 선생님, 조지 님 도와 주세요. :D

hi !

like Julia thinks I am studying a lyrics it's 그날까지 by 아이비.
I like this song and I wanted to understand it and in the same time, makes some vocabulary.
and thanks again for helping me.

사랑은 사랑은 소리 없이 날 찾아와
내 안을 내 맘을 빈자리 없이 채우나 봐
언젠가 언젠가 니 사랑이 되는 날
그 날까지 기다릴게 영원히

in my precedent post, Julia tell the story about this song. the stroy is about two childhood friends whose one ends up falling in love with the other, but as the other does notwant to lose his good friend, refuses his feelings and eventually move away
.. and the girls waits for him
