Yes, we’re back at it again. If a song is this good—written, performed, and now even visualized by Soyeon herself—it deserves the spotlight every time. “My Name is Malgeum” isn’t just witty and warm—it’s a soft ache in melody, a coming-of-age wish wrapped in pink nostalgia. With the release of the new MV, we look at one of the most tender lines in the whole song:
“날 안아줘 아니 사랑해줘
이건 꿈에서만 하니까”
Hug me—or no, love me—
Since this only happens in dreams.

💬 4 Key Expressions to Learn:
1️⃣ 날 안아줘 – Hug me
• 날 = 나 (me) + -를 (object marker)
• 안아줘 = from 안다 (to hug) + -아줘 (casual request)
→ A gentle request for comfort and closeness. Simple, sincere.
2️⃣ 아니 사랑해줘 – No, love me
• 아니 = no (used here as a self-correction, like “wait”)
• 사랑해줘 = from 사랑하다 (to love) + -아줘 (again, asking)
→ A shift from needing comfort to craving something deeper—love.
3️⃣ 이건 꿈에서만 – only in dreams
• 이건 = 이것은 (this thing + topic marker)
• 꿈에서 = in dreams
• -만 = only
→ Sets up the bittersweet: these desires are safely tucked inside dreams.
4️⃣ 하니까 – because it happens / since it is
• 하다 (to do/happen) + -니까 (cause/reason ending)
→ This grammar form reveals why she’s making this vulnerable request: because reality doesn’t allow it.

💡 Language & Emotion Tip:
The switch from “hug me” to “love me” reveals emotional escalation—and vulnerability. But it’s quickly undercut by the reality: this is just a dream. The structure mirrors the ache of wanting more than what’s possible.

💬 Why It Matters:
This is where Soyeon’s genius lies—she can be loud and fearless, but also subtle and heart-wrenching. This line captures a secret wish whispered in a dream. “My Name is Malgeum” is a poem of contradiction: bright yet melancholy, confident yet tender. And that’s why we’ll keep posting about it.
