“세상 참 작은 것들에 울고 웃어”sesang cham jageun geotdeule ulgo useo
on Boy With LuvApproved & live
"세상 참 작은 것들에 울고 웃어" means "in this world I cry and laugh over such small things" — the line that distinguishes "Boy With Luv" from BTS's earlier grand, world-scale declarations. The song's Korean title, 작은 것들을 위한 시, literally means "A Poem for Small Things," and it is written as a parallel to their 2014 track "Boy in Luv" (Wikipedia). Per Billboard, the song's idea is that true strength and love come from finding joy in the smallest things in life (Wikipedia); it appears on the 2019 EP Map of the Soul: Persona.
