biseuthan geot gatji urin ppyeotsokkkaji dareum
We might seem alike, but we're different to the bone
ai changpihadagado meongseok kkalmyeon bareum
Ah even when I'm shy, once I get the spotlight, I come alive
amman saljjyeodo nan mareum
No matter how much weight I gain, I'm still slim
gyesaneun neuryeodo nunchineun ppareum
I count slow, but I catch on fast
ingireul nonhajamyeon an hae imman apeum
Talking about popularity, Not worth it, it speaks for itself
ssakdukssakduk jareum
Snip snip, cut it off
uri ireum teulrindamyeon ttuduttudu majeum
Get our name wrong, ddu-du-ddu-du you're done
geomeunsaek bunhongbichi
Black color, pink glow
tto i eoryeoun geol haenaeji
We pull off this hard thing again
urin yeppeujanghan
We're pretty, no doubt
We some yeppeujanghan savage
We some pretty savage
biseuthan geol geolchyeotjiman jataebuteo dareum
We may throw on the same thing, but our silhouette's different
jjan hago natanamyeon kapetbuteo kkareum
Ta-da, when we appear, they roll the carpet out first
BLACK haetda PINK haetda nae mamdaero bakkum
I go BLACK, I go PINK, I switch it up how I want
ne jiltuga munjeya
Your jealousy’s the problem
geomeunsaek bunhongbichi
Black color, pink glow
tto i eoryeoun geol haenaeji
We pull off this hard thing again
urin yeppeujanghan
We're pretty, no doubt
We some yeppeujanghan savage
We some pretty savage
useojujiman manyang yakajin anha
I smile, but I'm never that weak
bibarami bulsurok deo nopi nara
The stronger the storm, the higher I fly
wonhamyeon boyeojulge
If you want, I'll show you
guji mal an haedo da aljanha
You already know without me saying
bwado bwado yeppeujanghan
No matter how many times I see you, you're still pretty
bwado bwado yeppeujanghan
No matter how many times I see you, you're still pretty

SONG MEANING

“Pretty Savage” is BLACKPINK’s glitter-studded battle cry. From the very first chant of “BLACKPINK in your area,” the quartet flips between their two signature colors: black for fierceness and pink for charm. They brag about diamonds that “got ‘em blind,” rapid-fire wordplay that cuts like ice, and a confidence so bright that doubters can only “run, run, run.” The song celebrates the thrill of being untouchable, flaunting power and beauty while brushing off envy with a playful wink.

Behind the catchy hooks lies a simple message: own every side of yourself. You can be elegant yet rebellious, pretty yet savage—and you never have to shrink for anyone. Whenever gossip swirls “like rain,” BLACKPINK rises higher, reminding listeners to stay dazzling, stay daring, and keep the spotlight exactly where it belongs: on their unstoppable selves.
