Would you still be holding me by my side like before?
niga eopsido jal sal georago
I said I'd live fine without you
babo gateun jajonsim ttaemune
Because of stupid pride
huhoehandago, bogo sipdago
Saying I regret it, saying I miss you
geu mareul haji mothaesseo
I just couldn't say those words
uri idaero kkeutil georamyeon
If this is really the end for us
neutgerado neol saranghandago
That I love you, even if it's late
charari naega mianhadago geunal
I should've just said I was sorry that day
peongpeong ureobol geol geuraesseo
Should've cried my eyes out
dasi doedoragandamyeon
If I could turn back time
jom deo jalhaesseul tende
I'd have done better
neoreul bonaejin anheul tende
I wouldn't have let you go
oneurirado jeonhwahae bolkka?
Should I call you even today?
neoreul notchigo ulgo itdago
I'm here, crying because I lost you
sigani gado neo gateun saram
Even as time goes by, someone like you
dasin mannal su eopneunde
I'll never meet again
geojinmal gatdeon neoreul mannaseo
Meeting you felt almost like a lie
nuni busige haengbokaetdago
I was blindingly happy
huhoehandago, bogo sipdago neoreul
I regret it, I miss you
ijeseoya deo saranghago itdago (uri idaero kkeutil georamyeon)
Only now do I realize I love you more (if this is really the end for us)
jeongmal idaero kkeunnal georamyeon
If it really ends right here
charari naega mianhadago geunyang
I'd rather just say I'm sorry
peongpeong ureobol geol geuraesseo
Should've cried my eyes out

펑펑 — profusely / in torrents
펑펑 is an onomatopoeic and mimetic word that describes something happening in abundance or with a gushing sound, often associated with crying.
In this song, it's used to express the act of crying "profusely" or "in torrents." The singer regrets not having cried 펑펑 (cried her heart out) and expressed her feelings when she had the chance, making it a vivid and emotionally charged word that captures the song's theme of regret and longing.
Have you ever said something in a fight that you didn't mean? "펑펑 (peongpeong)" is a Korean sound word for crying your eyes out, and this song is all about the regret that comes after a breakup caused by foolish pride. The singer wishes they could turn back time, not to win the argument, but to do one simple thing: apologize and cry their heart out instead of letting their partner walk away.
This powerful ballad explores the painful silence after a fight, the what-ifs, and the heartbreaking realization that pride isn't worth losing someone you love. It's a story about missing someone so much that you revisit old memories, all while wishing you had just said, "I'm sorry, I miss you, I love you," before it was too late.
