Dongye, which means the Eastern Ye, was a Korean chiefdom which occupied portions of the northeastern Korean peninsula from roughly 3rd-century BC to around early 5th-century. It bordered Goguryeo and Okjeo to the north, Jinhan to the south, and China's Lelang Commandery to the west. Today, this territory consists of the provinces of South Hamgyŏng and Kangwon in North Korea, and Gangwon in South Korea. It is believed to be one of the ancient tribes that were formed into the Tungusic peoples.
Dongye appears in history as a vassal state of Goguryeo. In early 5th-century, however, King Gwanggaeto the Great of Goguryeo annexed Dongye, leading to Goguryeo's domination of the entire northern portion of the Korean peninsula and most of Manchuria. A small part of Dongye in the south was absorbed into Silla.
Dongye considered itself the same people as Goguryeo, and shared the language and ethnic origins of the people of Okjeo and Goguryeo. This may indicate that Dongye also shared a common origin with Buyeo and Gojoseon. The population was recorded to be 280,000 families.
Ooh oh yeah
Can I get something off my chest?
Ooh um hmm
Every now and then I think of all the times we shared
Your the only one who lets me know you really care
I miss you more and more and day by day, it's hard to see
Just how you love me so and everything you gave to me
I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe
I can barely remember the time
The time we were caught in the rain
How you took my hand and you said I have things to say
It's the little things that makes me stronger everyday
I don't know if you hear me somewhere I hope your listening
I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe
You're the only one
(Be the only one)
Who shined a light into my life
Took me from where I was and
Lead me toward what was right
You're the only one
(Be the only one)
Who shined a light into my life
Took me from where I was and
Lead me toward what was right
I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe
I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe
I still believe, I believe in you and me
And that one day we will be together
And I know it sounds strange to you
But I never moved on 'cause my heart wouldn't let you go
Until I let you know I still believe
