HWANG MIN HYUN's “OUR” is a quiet love song about feeling someone close even when they're not physically there. With eyes closed, the singer senses a familiar gaze, a soft voice and a ray of sunlight under one shared sky, and finds that nothing needs to be spoken or proven. He simply stays where he is, certain that the bond between them stays steady as the seasons change.

잠시만 눈 감으면 넌Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): jam·si·man nun ga·meu·myeon neon
Meaning: If I just close my eyes for a moment, you...
Words in this line- 잠시만jam·si·manjust for a moment
- 눈nuneyes
- 감으면ga·meu·myeonif (I) close
- 넌neonyou
Word for word: Just-a-moment eye close-if you
Why it doesn't translate word for word: The line ends on 넌 ("you") with no verb attached — the sentence is deliberately cut off mid-thought, leaving the image of "you" unfinished until the next verse picks it up.
다 알 것 같은 걸Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): da al kkeot ga·teun geol
Meaning: I feel like I understand it all
Words in this line- 다daall
- 알alknow
- 것kkeotthing
- 같은ga·teunseem
- 걸geol(soft ending)
Word for word: All know thing like thing-it
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 것 같다 is a fixed phrase meaning 'it seems like...', not just the sum of 'thing' and 'similar'. The ending 걸 is a casual softener that doesn't change the meaning but adds a warm, tentative tone.
너의 하루에 든 생각들이Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): neo·ui ha·ru·e deun saeng·gak·tteu·ri
Meaning: The thoughts that filled your day
Words in this line- 너의neo·uiyour
- 하루에ha·ru·ein a day
- 든deunthat filled
- 생각들이saeng·gak·tteu·rithoughts
Word for word: Your day-in entered thoughts-subj
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 든 is the modifier form of 들다 ('to enter, to fill'), describing 생각들 ('thoughts') as the ones that filled the day, not literally 'entered inside'. The image is of thoughts running through someone's entire day.
널 느낄 수 있어Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): neol neu·kkil ssu i·sseo
Meaning: I can feel you
Words in this line- 널neolyou
- 느낄neu·kkilfeel
- 수ssucan
- 있어i·sseois/can
Word for word: You-object feel ability exist
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 수 있어 is a fixed pattern meaning 'can/be able to' — not literally 'number' plus 'exists'; also the word order is reversed, with 'you' placed before the verb.
