Fan Annotations (2)
“nan na-ro gadeukae” 난 나로 가득해
"난 나로 가득해" = "I'm full of myself." In English "full of myself" is an insult, but here 나로 가득하다 (filled with my own self) is reclaimed as self-sufficiency and self-possession — needing nothing external to feel complete. It sits right after "I'm that one... by myself," reinforcing the self-made theme of the track. "Rich Man" was released September 5, 2025 as aespa's lead single and peaked at #3 on Korea's Circle Digital Chart (Wikipedia).

“I carry the load, run the show” I carry the load, run the show
"I carry the load, run the show" grounds the song's flex in labor rather than inheritance — being rich here means carrying the weight and running things yourself. "Run the show" is an English idiom for being the one in charge / calling the shots. "Rich Man" was produced by Cody Tarpley and Ryan Jhun and reached #30 on the Billboard Global 200 (Wikipedia).
