What the song is about

In “LOVE ATTACK,” RESCENE sing as a bold pursuer who senses a hidden someone and draws them out into the open. Guided by instinct, they close in, sure the one they've found has waited too, and urge them to stop hiding; once hands join, the two blend like chemistry and tint the world with light and an unfamiliar scent. It stays cocky, flirty and charged throughout.

한 번도 빛난 적 없었던
Listen from this line

Romanization (as sung): han beon·do bin·nan jeok eop·sseot·tteon

Meaning: That had never shone before

Words in this line
  • 한hanone
  • 번도beon·donot even once
  • 빛난bin·nanthat shone
  • 적jeokexperience
  • 없었던eop·sseot·tteonthere was none

Word for word: Even one time shone occasion not-having-been

Why it doesn't translate word for word: 한 번도 literally means 'even one time', 적 is 'an occasion' and 없었던 is 'that did not exist'. Together this pattern simply means 'never'. The ending -던 adds a tone of looking back at the past.

Meaning: In the renewed scene

Words in this line
  • 새로워진sae·ro·wo·jinmade new
  • 장면에jang·myeo·nein the scene

Word for word: In the become-new scene

Why it doesn't translate word for word: 새롭다 means 'new' and -어지다 means 'to become', so 새로워진 is 'having become new'. 장면 is a 'scene' like a film shot. Together it says the world looks like a fresh frame.

The ending -겠지 means 'surely, right?': the speaker is confident in the guess and a bit teasing.
