Today’s song comes from one of my absolute favorite groups: NMIXX — with their late-2024 hit “Soñar (Breaker)”.
This track is bursting with energy and life, and features one of those classic NMIXX change-ups that hits you right when you think you know where the song is going. Bold, playful, fearless — very on brand.
But honestly, the real reason I picked it today? I’m really happy to say that I managed to get tickets for NMIXX’s Europe tour, and I’ll finally be seeing them live next year. So this one hits a little closer to the heart. 💙
Let’s look at these lines that perfectly capture the song’s adventurous spirit:
“하늘 위로 닻을 던져봐
한 발만 내디뎌
꿈속 가는 wormhole”
“Throw an anchor into the sky,
take just one step forward,
a wormhole leading into a dream.”
—
⚓ 하늘 위로 닻을 던져봐 – “Throw an anchor into the sky”
• 하늘 위로 → up into the sky
• 닻 → anchor
• 던지다 → to throw
• -어 봐 → “try doing…”
💡 Interpretation:
An anchor normally holds you down — throwing it into the sky flips that idea completely. This line is about breaking limits, anchoring yourself not to fear, but to possibility.

👣 한 발만 내디뎌 – “Take just one step”
• 한 발 → one step
• 내디디다 → to step forward
💡 Meaning:
Not “leap,” not “run.” Just one step. A reminder that change doesn’t have to be huge — it just has to start.
—
🌀 꿈속 가는 wormhole – “A wormhole leading into a dream”
• 꿈속 → inside a dream
• 가는 → going toward
• wormhole → English loanword
💡 Nuance:
Using wormhole adds a sci-fi, otherworldly feel — a shortcut from reality into imagination. It’s NMIXX saying: dreams aren’t far away — they’re one jump, one step, one break away.

✨ Why These Lines Feel So NMIXX
“Soñar (Breaker)” is about courage and movement — not waiting until you’re ready, but moving because you’re not.
“닻을 던져봐 / 한 발만 내디뎌 / 꿈속 가는 wormhole” feels like a mantra:
⚡ break the rules
⚡ step forward anyway
⚡ trust the unknown
And knowing I’ll be hearing this live next year? Yeah — that anchor is already flying skyward.
