β€œDDU-DU DDU-DU, 달렀와”Approved
"달렀와" (dallyeowa) is a blunt command β€” "come running" β€” not a request, which flips the softer "come to me" register a lot of pop choruses use into something closer to a summons. Stacked right after the gunshot-onomatopoeia "DDU-DU DDU-DU" hook, it reinforces the song's whole posture: BLACKPINK demand the attention rather than ask for it. The imperative matches the fierce, in-charge concept of the single, released June 15, 2018 on Square Up (Wikipedia).

'μ•…λͺ½μ„ λ²—μ–΄λ‚˜, κΉ¨μ–΄λ‚  κΈ°νšŒμ•Ό' means 'escape the nightmare β€” it's a chance to wake up' (ReadDork). It's the bridge's turn: the shadow that has stalked the narrator all song gets reframed as an opening rather than a trap. On Armageddon (2024), "Mine" runs on exactly this arc β€” from being swallowed by fear to standing tall despite it (Wikipedia).

β€œκ³„νšλŒ€λ‘œ 끝났어”Approved
κ³„νšλŒ€λ‘œ 끝났어 (gyehoek-daero kkeutnasseo) means "it ended exactly as planned" β€” the reveal that the whole thing was scripted from the start, with κ³„νšλŒ€λ‘œ ("according to plan") being a common, slightly smug Korean phrase for everything going your way. Tagging the English "too late" onto it twists the knife: the other person only realises they were played once there's no move left. It lands as the cold payoff to the song's slow-burn setup.

β€œλ‚˜λ₯Ό 봐쀘 eyes on me”Approved
"λ‚˜λ₯Ό 봐쀘 eyes on me" (nareul bwajweo eyes on me) opens the song as an invitation rather than a demand β€” IU's gentlest possible flex. She pairs the Korean λ‚˜λ₯Ό 봐쀘 ("look at me") with the English "eyes on me" so the hook lands for both Korean and international listeners at once. It sets up the song's central reversal, where the spotlight is ultimately turned back on the listener as the real "celebrity."
