What does “Who” by Jimin mean?

In “Who” by Jimin, the singer longs for a woman they have never met yet can't stop picturing at night. They wonder whether she is close by or very far away, and why, with so many people and places out there, they still haven't found her. Between the questions come promises to give her the world and to be someone she can rely on, in a hopeful, dreamy mood.
