- 우리가 (u/ri/ga) = We (subject)
- 곧 (got) = That is / in other words
- 우리의 (u/ri/ui) = Our
- 꿈 (kkum) = Dream
This line expresses confidence and destiny—they are not just chasing a dream; they embody it. Referring to themselves as "Pantheon" elevates their status to something legendary. 🧞♂️
🗣️ Real-life Example: What is your dream?
Are you curious about Stray Kids’ dream or goal?
You can ask them, "What is your dream?" 🌟
👉 "꿈이 뭐예요?"
(kkum-i mwo-ye-yo?)
= What is your dream?
In Korean, you can say "꿈이 뭐예요?" to politely ask about someone’s dream or goal. "뭐예요" means "what's...?" and makes the question sound natural and respectful. 😎
💡 It's a simple and friendly way to start a conversation and learn more about someone! If I ever get the chance to meet Stray Kids, I’d love to ask them about their dream! ✨
