์ธ์ฐ (inyeon) is a deeply romantic, cultural Korean concept that describes fate, providence, or the destined ties that bring two people together.
In the song, TWICE wonders when and how their inyeon will finally begin, elevating a playful track about daydreaming into a search for a true soulmate. It is a beautiful and poetic word that carries much more emotional weight than a standard word for a relationship.
Have you ever wondered what it's like to be in love? TWICE gets it! In "What Is Love?", the members sing about only knowing love from what they've seen in movies, books, and TV shows. They sing, "๋งค์ผ๊ฐ์ด ์ํ ์์์๋ / ์ฑ ์์์๋ ๋๋ผ๋ง ์์์ ์ฌ๋์ ๋๊ปด" (Every day, in movies, in books, in dramas, I feel love). This makes them super curious and excited, wondering when it will be their turn to experience it for real.
They've heard all the clichรฉs: that love is "์ฌํ์ฒ๋ผ ๋ฌ์ฝคํ๋ค๋๋ฐ" (sweet like candy) and feels like you're flying. The song is a big, adorable question mark, full of daydreams about who their person might be and when they'll finally meet. They're so ready for it, they feel like their heart might burst just from imagining it! Itโs a super fun and relatable song about looking forward to finding your own great love story, one that's even better than what you see on screen.
TWICE is a nine-member South Korean girl group formed by JYP Entertainment through the reality survival show SIXTEEN.

Known for infectious, candy pop hooks and vibrant choreography, TWICE quickly became one of the biggest girl groups in K-pop with hits like "Cheer Up," "TT," and "Fancy." "Feel Special," the title track of their 2019 EP of the same name, topped Korea's Gaon Album Chart and was later certified Platinum. A decade into their career, TWICE remain one of K-pop's most successful acts, having sold out stadiums worldwide and become the first overseas act confirmed to headline Tokyo's National Stadium.
