Pedazos — YESUNG: meaning, key lines and pronunciation
First verse: the song, every line and what it means — in sync이제 우린 없는 거겠지i·je u·rin eom·neun geo·get·jjiI guess there's no more 'us' nowListen to this line with the translationNo sign-upWhat the song is about
YESUNG's “Pedazos” follows a singer left shattered after a breakup, unable to forget someone who now passes by without warmth. Memories turn to dust, while a lingering afterimage and a small smile haunt the hard nights, and carving a name into broken fragments only underlines the emptiness. The wish to let go keeps coming back and never wins, so the song ends with nothing okay and nowhere left to hide.
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.
이제 우린 없는 거겠지Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): i·je u·rin eom·neun geo·get·jji
Meaning: I guess there's no more 'us' now
Words in this line- 이제i·jenow
- 우린u·rinwe
- 없는eom·neunnonexistent
- 거겠지geo·get·jjiprobably
Word for word: now we-TOPIC nonexistent thing-probably
Why it doesn't translate word for word: Literally, '없는 거겠지' reads as 'it's probably a non-existing thing' — the ending -겠지 expresses a resigned guess rather than a flat statement, softening the finality of the breakup.
텅 빈 내 안에 남은Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): teong bin nae a·ne na·meun
Meaning: What remains inside my emptiness
Words in this line- 텅teonghollow
- 빈binempty
- 내naemy
- 안에a·neinside
- 남은na·meunremaining
Word for word: hollow empty my inside-at remaining
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 텅 and 빈 both mean 'empty,' stacked together to intensify the image of a completely hollowed-out inner self, not a literal empty container.
이젠 숨이 막혀 숨길 수 없어Listen from this lineRomanization (as sung): i·jen su·mi ma·kyeo sum·gil ssu eop·sseo
Meaning: Now I'm breathless, I can't hide it anymore
Words in this line- 이젠i·jennow
- 숨이su·mibreath
- 막혀ma·kyeochokes
- 숨길sum·gilhide
- 수ssuway
- 없어eop·sseothere isn't
Word for word: Now breath blocks, a way to hide doesn't exist
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 숨이 막혀 literally means "breath gets blocked," but it's a fixed expression for being so overwhelmed by emotion that you can barely breathe — not literal suffocation. 수 없어 literally reads "a way doesn't exist," which simply means "can't."
아무 희망 없는 꿈 속을 헤매Listen to the first verse — freeRomanization (as sung): a·mu hui·mang eom·neun kkum so·geul he·mae
Meaning: Wandering through a dream with no hope at all
Words in this line- 아무a·muany
- 희망hui·manghope
- 없는eom·neunwithout
- 꿈kkumdream
- 속을so·geulinside
- 헤매he·maewander
Word for word: No hope not-existing dream inside wander
Why it doesn't translate word for word: 아무 ... 없는 is a fixed pattern '아무 X 없다' meaning 'no X at all', not just 'any hope is absent'. 아무 alone means 'any', but paired with 없다 (doesn't exist) it intensifies the negation into 'none whatsoever'.
