Notes and references[edit]

^ The correct transliteration of 'Oh! Brothers' into Hangul is '오! 브라더스'. However the band instead uses '오! 부라더스' (which is pronounced as 'Oh! Boo-rothers') in their albums, official website, press releases, etc. The white space next to the exclamation mark is sometimes omitted and sometimes not, even in the band's official website.
