재회 (How have you been) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
어떻게 지냈어
정말 여전히 그대로네
그때의 난 너무 어렸다고 늘어놓기엔
먼 길을 지나 변명할 필요도 없게
이젠 너무도 우린 다른 길에 있어
[Pre-Chorus]
너만큼 날 웃게 했던 사람은 없었어
너만큼 날 울게 했던 사람도 없었지
네 곁에 그 사람 잘 어울려
나를 바라봤을 때의 그 눈으로
[Chorus]
사랑한다 좋아한다 말하겠지
예전처럼 서툴지는 않게
네가 자꾸 어른처럼 웃으니까 어색해서
문득 그리워진 그때의
나 너 우리
[Pre-Chorus]
반가울 줄 알았지만 조금 두려웠어
혹시라도 널 보면 흔들려버릴까 봐
[Chorus]
사랑한다 좋아한다 말했었지
그 무엇도 두려워하지 않고
네가 자꾸 예전처럼 웃으니까
괜시리 또 울컥 눈물이 날 것 같아
[Bridge]
이제 다신 그때의 우리처럼 사랑할 수 없을 걸 알아
서툴러서 소중했던 시절
왜 그땐 몰랐을까
[Refrain]
고마웠어 철없던 날 용서해
불안하기만 했던 내 약점이었던
아끼는 실수였던 어린 날의 너와 나
이제는 많은 걸 너무 다 알아버린
[Outro]
나 너 우리
재회 (How have you been) Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Kwon Jin Ah addresses a former lover with a mixture of familiarity and distance, remarking on how little they seem to have changed. She reflects on her own youthful immaturity at the time of their relationship but emphasizes that enough time has passed to render explanations unnecessary. Their lives have clearly diverged, and there is an underlying sadness in recognizing that they now walk completely separate paths.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus highlights the deep emotional imprint the relationship left on Kwon Jin Ah. She admits that no one else has made her laugh or cry as much as this person did, underscoring the intensity of their shared history. Observing her former lover with someone new, she notes how easily he expresses affection, evoking memories of the way he once looked at her, adding a poignant layer of longing and quiet sorrow.
[Chorus]
In the chorus, Kwon Jin Ah imagines her former lover now saying “I love you” and “I like you” with greater maturity and ease than before. His more adult demeanor feels foreign to her, triggering a nostalgic yearning for the clumsy but sincere emotions they shared when they were younger. This awkwardness and innocence, now lost, deepen her sense of bittersweet regret.
[Pre-Chorus]
The second pre-chorus reveals the emotional conflict Kwon Jin Ah feels upon seeing her past love again. Although she expected happiness from the reunion, fear accompanies it, worried that old feelings might resurface and destabilize the emotional balance she has worked hard to maintain.
[Chorus]
The second chorus reflects on the bravery they once had when confessing their feelings, unafraid and genuine. Kwon Jin Ah notes how her former lover’s familiar smile now stirs unexpected tears, suggesting that despite time and growth, the pain of their lost connection still lingers just beneath the surface.
[Bridge]
In the bridge, Kwon Jin Ah acknowledges that they can never return to the way things once were. Their love was precious precisely because it was imperfect and inexperienced, a realization that comes too late. This section underscores the core tragedy of lost innocence and the deep value of what they had, only recognized after it was gone.
[Refrain]
The refrain is a tender expression of gratitude and apology. Kwon Jin Ah thanks her former lover for forgiving her immaturity and insecurity during their time together. She calls their youthful mistakes “precious,” suggesting that despite the pain, their shared experiences helped shape who they became, even if growing up meant losing some of that purity.
[Outro]
In the outro, Kwon Jin Ah gently echoes “나 너 우리” (“me, you, us”), a final, simple acknowledgment of their shared past. The repetition feels like a soft farewell, honoring the memory of their bond even as she accepts its place firmly in the past.
