my other half

[iDoof]

if i want to describe a girl as my 'other half', i.e. my soulmate, what's a good, poetic way to express that? is 마음의 상대자 ok?

[trutherous]

You could use 나의 반쪽 literally meaning 'my other half' but it's hardly poetic in my opinion.

(below is straight from naver)

Where could my other half[soulmate] be?
나의 반쪽은 어디 있을까?

Other suggestions:
내가 소중하는 사람

아니면 "아름다운 나의 사람아" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l0aR5i74E8 어떨까요? 물론 농담이고요

I will say "내 짝이다"! It's pretty fitting cos "짝" can be used as one of a pair e.g 양말/구두/장갑 한 짝 - one side of a pair of socks/shoes/gloves, and it can also be used to mean "mate" or "partner"...

Sorry, I forgot about the "poetic" bit. How about the slightly modified "내 운명의 짝..."?
