I feel the breeze

네 손을 잡고 걸어가

Ne soneul japgo georeoga

Walking, holding your hand

After like, 설레임이 남아

After like, seolleoimi nama

After like — excitement remains

이 느낌 뭐라 표현해

I neukkkim mworago pyohyeonhae

How do I describe this feeling

Love is a game, I know the rules

Love is a game — I know the rules

그래도 난 뛰어들어

Geuraedo nan ttwieodeuro

Still, I jump right in

After like, yeouni gireo

After like — the afterglow lingers

너를 잊을 수 없어

Neoreul ijeul su eopseo

I can't forget you

Fan Annotations (1)

“After like, yeouni gireo” After like, 여운이 길어

"여운" (yeoun) is the lingering resonance an experience leaves behind — the aftertaste of a song once it ends, or the trace of a person after they've gone; there's no clean one-word English match. Here IVE use it for the residue of a relationship still stuck at the "like" stage: not love yet, but not nothing either. Fittingly, "After LIKE" (released August 2022) interpolates Gloria Gaynor's 1978 disco anthem "I Will Survive" (NME; Billboard), so the 여운 hanging over the track is half crush, half survival-anthem echo.
