Everlasting — N.Flying: meaning, key lines and pronunciation
What does “Everlasting” by N.Flying mean?
N.Flying’s “Everlasting” is a tender song about wanting to give someone lasting happiness and stay the same in their heart as seasons pass. Winter imagery runs through it: snow, flowers, a blizzard, a cold-like fever that finally melts away, and a frightening yeti.
What the song is about
The singer offers patient waiting, then a shared run through the storm and a new constellation made from two stars, with memories gathering slowly over time.
Key lines
4 lines from the song in Korean, with how they sound and what they mean. The full line-by-line breakdown lives in the app.
너를 위해 할 수 있는 일이 내게 있다면Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): neo·reu rwi·hae hal ssu in·neun i·ri nae·ge it·tta·myeon
Meaning: If there's something I can do for you...
Words in this line- 너를neo·reuyou (object)
- 위해rwi·haefor
- 할halto do
- 수ssumeans, ability
- 있는in·neunthat exists
- 일이i·ritask, thing
- 내게nae·geto me
- 있다면it·tta·myeonif there is
Word for word: You-object for do-able thing to-me exists if
Why it doesn't translate word for word: On its own 할 means 'to do', 수 means 'means/way' and 있는 means 'existing', but 할 수 있는 together simply means 'able to do'. The ending 다면 adds a gentle 'if', so the line sounds like a humble offer of help rather than a pile of words.

Meaning: Today I ran into a scary yeti and fled.

- 설인을seo·ri·neulyeti
- 만나man·nameeting
- 도망을do·mang·eulescape
- 쳤어cheo·sseodid
Word for word: Today scary snow-person meeting, escape hit.
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 설인 is 'snow' plus 'person', but together they name the yeti. 도망을 치다 literally reads 'hit an escape', yet it simply means 'to run away'. So the natural version is an ordinary story about meeting a yeti.
함께 눈보라를 맞아 보고, 저 멀리 도망도 쳐 보자Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): ham·kke nun·bo·ra·reul ma·ja bo·go, jeo meol·li do·mang·do cheo bo·ja
Meaning: Let's brave the blizzard together and try running far away.
Words in this line- 함께ham·kketogether

- 맞아ma·jafacing
- 보고,bo·go,trying
- 저jeothat
- 멀리meol·lifar
- 도망도do·mang·doescape too
- 쳐cheodo
- 보자bo·jalet's try
Word for word: Together blizzard receive seeing, that far also escape hit let's-see.
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 보다 alone means 'to see', but after another verb it means 'try'. So 맞아 보고 is 'try facing' and 쳐 보자 is 'let's try'. The literal 'seeing' and 'let's-see' look odd for that reason. 눈보라를 맞다 literally 'receive a blizzard' means to walk into it.
항상 네 맘에 변함없는 나로 살고 싶어Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): hang·sang ne ma·me byeon·ha·meom·neun na·ro sal·go si·peo
Meaning: I want to always live in your heart as the same unchanging me

- 맘에ma·mein heart
- 변함없는byeon·ha·meom·neununchanging
- 나로na·roas me
- 살고sal·golive
- 싶어si·peowant
Word for word: Always your heart-in unchanging me-as live want
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 맘 is a casual short form of 마음 'heart', so 맘에 means 'in the heart'. 나로 means 'as me' and with 살다 it becomes 'live while staying myself'. 변함없는 literally means 'without change'.

How we make these breakdowns
theIDOL builds every breakdown with AI assistance and automated checks, and publishes a page only after it passes them. An AI model writes the meaning of each line and the word-by-word glosses from the song's timed lyrics. The pronunciation comes from our own rule-based Korean transcriber, which spells how the words sound when sung, sound changes included, not a letter-by-letter romanization. Pages that fail the audio-sync or translation checks are not published, and we quote only a few key lines. If you spot a mistake, write to support@theidol.ai and we will fix it.
