“bulkkokcheoreom taoreuneun” 불꽃처럼 타오르는

'불꽃처럼 타오르는' literally means 'burning like flames' — the opening hook frames the whole group as a wildfire that can't be contained, an idiom of unstoppable, blazing confidence. 'Fire' was 2NE1's debut single, released May 6, 2009, and was written and produced by Teddy Park (Wikipedia). It came with two music videos shot the same day — a 'space' version and a 'street' version — and went on to win Best Music Video and Best Composition at the 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards (Wikipedia).
