Chuu has released an MV for “Canary,” a song from her first full album, and it’s one that truly lets her voice shine. Soft yet powerful, gentle yet soaring, the song highlights the range and emotional strength that make Chuu such a special vocalist.
“Canary” isn’t about grand drama. It’s about friendship, caring for one another, and learning to treasure the small, quiet moments that keep us going. Like the bird it’s named after, the song feels like a signal of warmth and reassurance.
Today, let’s look at these two lines:
“그리워 너의 목소리
날 일으키던 날갯짓”
“I miss your voice,
the flutter of wings that used to lift me up.”
—
🎶 그리워 너의 목소리 – “I miss your voice”
• 그립다 → to miss, to long for
• 목소리 → voice
💡 Meaning:
This isn’t just missing sound — it’s missing presence. A voice that once brought comfort simply by existing.
—
🪽 날 일으키던 날갯짓 – “The wingbeats that lifted me up”
• 날 → me
• 일으키다 → to raise, to lift up
• 날갯짓 → flapping of wings
💡 Nuance:
The imagery is tender and symbolic. Those “wingbeats” represent encouragement, care, and the small acts that help someone stand again when they feel weak.

✨ Why “Canary” Feels So Gentle
This song doesn’t shout its message. It whispers it.
“Canary” reminds us that support doesn’t always come in loud gestures or dramatic moments. Sometimes, it’s a voice you miss, or a memory of being lifted — and that’s enough to keep you going.
