View — SHINee: meaning, key lines and pronunciation
What does “View” by SHINee mean?
In “View,” SHINee invites someone out of dull routine into a place so beautiful that it leaves everyone speechless. Senses blur together: sound takes on color, starlight has a taste, and a scent has weight, while they promise to gather up the sky and the sea for the one beside them.
What the song is about
Between promises and pleas to see more, the mood is dreamy, sensual and curious, like senses waking from a long sleep.
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.
좀 거칠어도 좋아 더 민감히 굴어봐Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): jom geo·chi·reo·do jo·a deo min·gam·hi gu·reo·bwa
Meaning: A bit rough is fine, so act even more sensitive
Words in this line- 좀joma little
- 거칠어도geo·chi·reo·doeven if rough
- 좋아jo·ait's fine
- 더deomore
- 민감히min·gam·hisensitively
- 굴어봐gu·reo·bwatry acting
Word for word: A little rough even-if good, more sensitively behave try
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 좋아 alone is 'good', but after 거칠어도 'even if rough' it means 'that is fine'. 굴다 is 'behave' and -어봐 is 'try'. Together they form a soft invitation rather than a command.
너무 아름다운 다운 다운 다운 viewListen from this lineRomanization (as sung): neo·mu a·reum·da·un da·un da·un da·un view
Meaning: A view so beautiful
Words in this line- 너무neo·muso
- 아름다운a·reum·da·unbeautiful
- 다운da·unecho
- 다운da·unecho
- 다운da·unecho
Word for word: Very beautiful-ful-ful-ful view
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 너무 on its own can mean 'too', but in speech it simply means 'so'. 아름다운 is 'beautiful', and the repeated 다운 is an echo of its last syllable that adds emphasis. Literally it reads like a stutter, while the meaning is pure admiration.
상상한 게 뭐든 전부 보여 줄게Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): sang·sang·han ge mwo·deun jeon·bu bo·yeo jul·kke
Meaning: Whatever you imagined, I'll show you all of it.
Words in this line- 상상한sang·sang·hanimagined
- 게gething that
- 뭐든mwo·deunwhatever
- 전부jeon·buall
- 보여bo·yeoshow
- 줄게jul·kkeI'll do for you
Word for word: Imagined thing whatever all show I'll-do-for-you.
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 뭐든 literally means 'anything', 전부 is 'all', and 게 is a contraction of 것이 ('the thing that'). The ending 줄게 is 주다 ('give') plus -ㄹ게, a promise: 'I'll do it for you'. So in English it is simply 'I'll show you everything', with a warm promising tone.
내 두 눈에 입 맞춰Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): nae du nu·ne im mat·chwo
Meaning: Kiss my eyes
Words in this line- 내naemy
- 두dutwo
- 눈에nu·neon the eyes
- 입immouth
- 맞춰mat·chwofit together
Word for word: My two eyes-on mouth fit
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 입 is 'mouth' and 맞추다 is 'to fit together', and as a pair 입 맞추다 means 'to kiss'. 두 눈 is 'two eyes', meaning both eyes. The literal version sounds odd because the kiss is described as 'fitting a mouth'.

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.
