Surprise drop! ITZY just gifted us with a behind-the-scenes MV for “Kiss & Tell,” filled with moments from “Girls will be Girls” and their recent music shows. But don’t let the cute edits fool you—this track is razor-sharp. It’s about brushing off the noise, standing tall, and trusting your own rhythm. 💃

Let’s check out this key moment from the lyrics:

“사소한 건 뒤로 넘겨 난 훅

오로지 나만이 내게는 축”

“I brush off the trivial stuff in one hook—

Only I am my own axis.”

🧠 Key Expressions to Know:

1️⃣ 사소한 건 – The trivial stuff

• 사소하다 – to be trivial / unimportant

→ Those petty comments? Not worth your energy.

2️⃣ 뒤로 넘겨 – I brush it off / leave it behind

• Literally “send to the back”

→ Mentally flipping the page on nonsense.

3️⃣ 훅 – Hook / in one go

• Originally an English word, used here to mean with a single blow or action

→ Not just brushing off—doing it effortlessly and fast.

4️⃣ 오로지 나만이 내게는 축 – Only I am my own axis

• 오로지 – solely

• 나만이 – only me

• 축 – axis / core

→ No one else defines your center. You’re the one who decides your path.

💡 Language & Emotion Tip:

The metaphor of being your own axis is powerful. 축 (axis) suggests stability, control, and orientation. When ITZY says they are their own 축, they’re saying they don’t spin for anyone else. They stand, move, and own their space by their own force.

💬 Why It Matters:

“Kiss & Tell” fits right into ITZY’s legacy of self-love anthems. It’s not about proving haters wrong—it’s about showing up for yourself without letting the whispers shake you. A soft clapback, wrapped in charisma.

💄 Got your own 축? Drop a 💋 if you’re brushing off the small stuff and walking your own line.
