Between Hope and Uncertainty 💭💔
With NewJeans’ 3rd anniversary just around the corner, Bunnies worldwide are holding their breath—will they come back, or is this the end of an era? While the future remains unclear, the feelings their music left us with still hit deep.
Today we revisit “OMG”, a song that mirrors the emotions many fans are experiencing right now.
“내가 힘들 때 울 것 같을 때
기운도 이젠 나지 않을 때”
“When I’m struggling, when I feel like crying,
When I don’t even have the strength anymore”

💬 Breakdown & Meaning:
1️⃣ 내가 힘들 때 – When I’m struggling
• 내가 = I (emphasized subject)
• 힘들다 = to be difficult/tiring
• -ㄹ 때 = when
→ Captures emotional or physical hardship—moments of feeling overwhelmed.
2️⃣ 울 것 같을 때 – When I feel like crying
• 울다 = to cry
• -ㄹ 것 같다 = seems like, feel like
→ That fragile edge when emotions might just overflow.
3️⃣ 기운도 – Even strength/energy
• 기운 = energy, strength, vitality
• -도 = even, also
→ This line adds emphasis—even energy itself is fading.
4️⃣ 이젠 나지 않을 때 – When I don’t have it anymore
• 이젠 = now (implying a shift from before)
• 나다 = to come out (here: energy “coming out”)
• 않을 때 = when it doesn’t
→ A poetic way to say: “I just don’t have it in me anymore.”

💡 Language & Emotion Tip:
The repetition of -때 (when) pulls us deep into a list of emotional states—not abstract pain, but moments fans can identify with. It’s introspective and vulnerable, and in this context, it reflects how Bunnies may feel as they wait, unsure, hoping for resolution.

💬 Why It Matters:
“OMG” was never just about love—it was about connection, dependence, and feeling lost when that connection is at risk. That’s exactly where many fans are now. But maybe, just like in the song, the moment of being seen, understood, and comforted is coming too.
💭 Are you still holding out hope? Drop a 🐇 if you’re still here, still waiting—and always loving.
