Overall Meaning

The song "Action" by 뉴이스트 (NU'EST) is all about empowerment and taking action for oneself. The lyrics talk about breaking free from conformity and expectations, and instead focusing on what truly matters to the individual. The chorus urges the listener to take action, with "Ready kkeutnaejuge Action!" translating to "Get ready to take action!". The verses talk about how the listener is unique and shouldn't care about what others think or say, with "I don't care, I don't care, neona ttarahae ttarahae" meaning "I don't care, I don't care, follow your own path".


The bridge of the song is especially powerful, with JR rapping about how society tries to conform individuals into a certain mold, but the listener should stand up and fight back to truly become themselves. The song ends on an optimistic note, with the singers telling the listener to seize the world and make it their own.

"And it goes, 1, 2, 3, action
This ain't a movie
I'm coming out 100% raw
The true, the real me
Victim of conformity
Pressed down on all fours
Stand up, fight back
The world it's yours."
I'll always think that it's an excellent and powerful message. Thank you for everything, NU'EST

허러커

@ladycrown3466

2021 and still listening to this masterpiece

NU’EST the most underrated group in earth

@btstae4664

FRRRR THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON THAT I KNOW WHO KNOWS NU'EST

@ladycrown3466

@K.G yes, they win lots of awards because of their talent. But, when you ask anybody their name or who NU'EST most of the kpop fans doesn't know even if they have done amazing things and won a lot of big awards. That's why Im saying that they are the MOST UNDERRATED because we all see talent but everyone is sleeping on NU'EST

@ladycrown3466

@K.G their debut was in 2012 long time ago, and not even at that time they were recognize even if they did a lot of projects and went to lots of programs. They are underrated af

@chaddebuff2299

Still better then BTS 🤷‍♂️

@imsevenyearsold
