NEW LOOK Lyrics (English Translation) – MISAMO

[Intro]
The opening begins with a simple "Oh," creating a sense of anticipation for MISAMO's stylish journey in the song. This sets a lively and playful tone, preparing the listener for the thematic exploration of fashion and self-expression that follows.

[Chorus: Momo, Sana, Mina]
In this chorus, MISAMO takes inspiration from the iconic miniskirts worn by Twiggy, one of the 1960s’ defining fashion icons. Momo, Sana, and Mina reflect on the challenges and beauty of short hair, often labeled "tomboyish," and express their desire to redefine their image with a "new look." They want a style that reflects their true character, questioning, “How do I look?” This line encapsulates the search for self-approval and curiosity about how others perceive them, rooted in fashion’s power to shape identity.

[Verse 1: Sana, Mina, Momo, All]
In the first verse, the girls describe themselves in a “supermodel” mindset, casually walking and posing in the park as if it’s Paris Fashion Week. MISAMO portrays themselves as stylish and self-assured, moving through their day with the confidence of a model on a runway. This expression of fun and confidence highlights the pleasure they find in being stylish and standing out.

[Pre-Chorus: Mina, Sana, Momo]
Here, MISAMO humorously addresses moments of clumsiness and romantic disappointment, wondering aloud why things sometimes don’t go their way. This reflective pause—“Why? Oh, why?”—acknowledges that they may not have all the answers, but they’re committed to moving forward and discovering a renewed version of themselves, represented by their desire for a “new look.” It’s a moment of vulnerability that contrasts with the playful, fashion-forward elements of the song.

[Chorus: Momo, Sana, Mina]
Returning to the chorus, MISAMO again expresses their admiration for Twiggy's iconic style and explores the concept of breaking free from traditional labels, like being called a “tomboy” due to their short hair. They’re focused on embodying their unique style, asking how they appear to others, and seeking to embody the charm of a “cover girl” with fashion that truly represents them.

[Verse 2: Momo, Mina, All]
In the second verse, the group mentions a trending salon where appointments are fully booked for months, highlighting the constant pursuit of the latest trends. Momo and Mina emphasize the excitement around discovering “what’s in” and “what’s out,” representing their ongoing journey of exploring new styles and staying current with fashion. This sense of curiosity aligns with the song’s overall theme of identity exploration.

[Pre-Chorus: Sana, Mina]
MISAMO encounters challenges again here, expressing frustration when plans fall through or when their family doesn’t understand their interests, such as the latest trendy shoes in the shop window. They’re eager to try out new looks, reinforcing the idea that their sense of style is deeply personal and tied to their self-expression, making each piece they select meaningful.

[Chorus: Sana, Mina, Momo]
The chorus repeats with MISAMO reaffirming their admiration for Twiggy’s fashion and their wish to be seen as stylish and unique. Their desire for a “new look” represents a continuous process of reinvention, fueled by self-expression and the hope of being viewed through a fresh perspective that aligns with their true self.

[Interlude: Momo]
In this repetitive interlude, Momo chants “Tell me” several times, creating a rhythmic call for validation and feedback on her style and appearance. This refrain subtly underscores the desire for acceptance and assurance, adding emotional depth to their journey of self-reinvention.

[Chorus: Mina, Momo, Sana]
The chorus reiterates, emphasizing MISAMO’s inspiration from Twiggy’s iconic miniskirt and their pushback against labels like “tomboy.” They long for a style that reflects their character, a style that makes them feel like a “cover girl.” They seek validation through the phrase “Baby, baby, tell me,” underscoring their curiosity about how others view them and their new look.

[Outro: Mina]
In the closing lines, Mina tenderly repeats “Baby, love,” signaling a return to self-love and acceptance, reflecting MISAMO’s recognition that true style comes from embracing oneself. This ending brings a sense of warmth and contentment, encapsulating the song's message of finding joy and confidence in personal expression.
