What’s Your Problem? Lyrics
[Intro]
What’s your problem?
Got thousands of them
They ain’t mine (They ain’t mine)
[Verse 1]
너보다도 날 사랑하는 널
알면서도 날 사랑하는 나
나도 너 같기를 강요해, 넌 what? (So what?)
너만 봐주길 또 애원해도, no, nah (Nah)
손톱 밑 가시가 돋쳐
더 활짝 핀 건 날 위한 ego
왜 또 넌 삐져 어린애처럼?
멈춰 shut up, 멈춰 shut up
[Pre-Chorus]
빨간 선 위로
춤을 추는 너
뻔히 다 들킨
네 속내는 worst
[Chorus]
가만히 앉아
따분히 너를 보던 내 눈빛
단 한 번도 의심 못해 why
내가 문제라는 너 (Like what?)
You obsessed with me
그런 착각 that’s no fun
우습지 않니?
I’m more than your fantasy
[Post-Chorus]
What’s your problem?
Got thousands of them
I’m more than your fantasy
[Verse 2]
Yeah
Know, I’m-know, I’m fabulous
덜 자란 애 never serious (Huh?)
Stop it, 지루해 furious (What?)
먼저 원한 적 없는 나를 위한 all in (Ooh)
멋대로 쏟아붓고 보채 넌 더 많이
Uh, super sneaky, sleazy
Met me one time then acting really needy (Ew)
뼛속까지 난 only for me (For me)
못 돼 난 널 위한 accessary (Sorry)
[Pre-Chorus]
결국 cross the line (Cross the line)
홀로 black out 넌 (Black out 넌)
정신 차려봐 (그만)
I don’t play along
[Chorus]
달콤한 척 또 (나를 맴돌아)
끝없이 날 탓하는 네 모습 (A to Z)
모두 나를 위해서란 말
네가 문제라던 난
완벽하잖니 (Look at me)
그것마저 that’s so fun
너만 모르지 (Why are you checking up on me?)
I’m more than your fantasy (Can’t you see that?)
[Bridge]
I’m minding mine, I still shine bright
I’m loving all of me (All of me)
Where’s your pride? 똑바로 봐
You’ve lost your sanity (Sanity)
I’m minding mine, I still shine bright
I’m loving all of me
Where’s your pride? 나를 봐
I’m obsessed with me
[Refrain]
Eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Out of fantasy
Eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
You all up on me, like what?
Eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Out of fantasy (Like what?)
Eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
I will make my scene, like what?
[Chorus]
What’s your problem? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
말하자면 밤 새도 모자라
Got thousands of them
지루한 your fantasy
What’s your problem? (Oh, ooh)
너만 몰라 날 난 나만의 답 (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Got thousands of them
I’m more than your fantasy
[Outro]
Eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
What’s Your Problem? Lyrics Meaning
[Intro]
The intro immediately confronts the listener with a rhetorical jab—“What’s your problem?” Irene and Seulgi deflect responsibility, suggesting that the issues being projected onto them don’t belong to them. It sets a tone of confrontation and confidence, dismantling the idea of emotional blame.
[Verse 1]
This verse highlights the emotional complexity of knowing someone loves you too much, even as you feel increasingly distant. Irene and Seulgi critique the partner’s controlling affection while exposing their own reluctance to be molded. They depict the discomfort of being guilted for independence, hinting at emotional exhaustion and drawing a boundary against manipulation masked as love.
[Pre-Chorus]
Here, Seulgi and Irene liken the partner’s behavior to dancing recklessly on a red line—dangerously close to overstepping boundaries. Their internal motives are transparent and unimpressive, revealing the shallowness and predictability of their emotional tactics. The tone is judgmental, laced with disappointment.
[Chorus]
The chorus flips the narrative entirely. Irene and Seulgi coolly observe the partner’s accusations, mocking the idea that they are the problem. Instead, they challenge the delusion that they were ever just a fantasy to fulfill. Their rejection of this fantasy exposes the absurdity of their partner’s expectations, positioning themselves as more complex and self-aware than the other’s limited view.
[Post-Chorus]
In this brief section, the artists double down on the central theme. “I’m more than your fantasy” becomes a mantra, asserting autonomy while further distancing themselves from the partner’s imagined version of them. It’s a powerful affirmation of self-perception.
[Verse 2]
JULIE brings a fierce new energy here, dismantling the partner’s entitlement with biting sarcasm. She brands them immature, overly attached, and demanding without giving. JULIE refuses to be used or reduced to an accessory, emphasizing her independence. The self-loving tone of the verse blends sass with clarity—she owes them nothing and isn’t afraid to say so.
[Pre-Chorus]
This version of the pre-chorus deepens the boundary theme. Irene and Seulgi highlight how the partner crossed the line again, this time ending up isolated in their own mess. Refusing to “play along,” the artists assert complete withdrawal from emotional games, signaling the end of tolerance.
