Magnetic is a bubbly confession song where ILLIT compares the thrill of a new crush to the unstoppable pull of two magnets. From the very first heartbeat in the lyrics, the singer admits she is trying to stay cool, yet her feelings keep tugging her closer. Every 'you, you, you' lands like a catchy chant, showing just how laser-focused her mind is on one person.
Instead of playing hard to get, she decides to be bold. She tosses aside the usual push-and-pull dating games, runs straight toward her crush, and invites them to do the same. The repeated 'dash-da-da' sounds mimic quick footsteps and racing hearts, while the playful 'bae, bae, bae' keeps the vibe light and fun. Altogether, the song celebrates youthful confidence, honest attraction, and the exhilarating magnetism that pulls two people together.
