Today's Korean Phrases from JISOO “Earthquake”
🖤 저 지금 너무 떨려요.
(jeo ji-geum neo-mu tteol-ryeo-yo)
= I’m so nervous right now!
🩷 한국어 공부 할수록 재밌어요!
(han-gu-geo gongbu hal-su-rok jaemi-sseoyo)
= The more I study Korean, the more fun it is!
(Original Lyric)
It hits me like an earthquake
더 빠르게 my heart race
온몸이 떨려 can't stand
널 부정할 수 없게
I think I’m gonna
(Romanization)
It hits me like an earthquake
Deo ppareuge my heart race
Onmomi tteollyeo can't stand

I think I’m gonna
(Translation)
It hits me like an earthquake
My heart races even faster
My whole body trembles, can’t stand
I can’t deny you
I think I’m gonna
💡 Let's break down Jisoo’s line together!
👉 "온 몸이 떨려 can't stand”
= My whole body trembles, can’t stand
- 온몸 (on-mom) = Whole body
- 이 (i) = Subject particle (attaches to 온몸)
- 떨려 (tteol-ryeo) = Trembles, shakes (from 떨리다)
This phrase expresses intense emotions—whether it's excitement, fear, or nervousness! 💓
🗣️ Real-life Example: I'm so nervous right now!
If you’re super nervous before a big moment, you can say:
👉 "저 지금 너무 떨려요."
(jeo jigeum neomu tteolryeoyo.)
= I’m so nervous right now.
Whether you're literally shaking or nervous, "떨려요" is the perfect word to use!
Use this when you’re about to give a speech, take an exam, or meet someone important like Jisoo! 😆 Now you’re ready to express those shaky moments in Korean! 🔥

벗어나려 할수록 너는 짙어져

There’s a shock coming after 지금

Beoseonaryeo halsurok neoneun jiteojeo
Almyeonseo kkaeeonal su eomneun kkumcheoreom
There’s a shock coming after jigeum
('Bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow)
The more I try to escape, the darker you get
Like a dream I know I can’t wake up from
There’s a shock coming after this moment
('Bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow)
💡 Let's break down Jisoo’s line together!
👉 "벗어나려 할수록 너는 짙어져”
= The more I try to escape, the stronger you get
- 벗어나려 (beo-seo-na-ryeo) = to try to escape, break free
- 할수록 (hal-su-rok) = the more (one does something),
- 너는 (neo-neun) = you
- 짙어져 (ji-teo-jyeo) = becomes deeper, darker, more intense
This lyric expresses a growing intensity—as Jisoo tries to break free,
the guy's presence or feelings only get stronger. 🌊
🗣️ Real-life Example: The more I study Korean, the more fun it is! 😎
📌 Key Expression: -ㄹ수록 ("the more… the more…")
The -ㄹ수록 structure is used to say that as one thing happens more, another thing happens more too.
👉 "한국어 공부 할수록 재밌어요!"
(hangugeo gongbu halsurok jaemisseoyo!)
= The more I study Korean, the more fun it is! 🎉
👉 “생각할수록 웃겨요!”
(saenggak halsurok utgyeoyo!)
= The more I think about it, the funnier it gets! 😂
So next time you want to say "The more I do something, the more something happens," try using -ㄹ수록!✨
