Before their debut, the boys participated in the survival show NO.MERCY. The group name has the double meaning of monsters conquering the K-pop scene and my star (MON means 'my' in French). X is an unknown existence.
They officially debuted through M! Countdown on May 14, 2015 with " 무단침입 (Trespass)". Their first music show trophy came with "DRAMARAMA" through The Show on November 14, 2017, while the album, THE CODE, peaked at #1 on the Gaon Album Chart.
They released their first Japanese-only single "SPOTLIGHT" on January 10, 2018.
In February 2020, Monsta X's first English album All About Luv ranked number five on the US Billboard 200 and number seven on the US Rolling Stone Top 200.
Since debut, Monsta X has been known for their aggressive style, combining elements of hip hop, EDM and pop. This aggressive style with "tracks centred around loud, clattering, electronic instrumentals, vicious rap verses, and striking vocals" has been influential across the fourth generation of K-pop.
On December 10, Monsta X released their second English-language album The Dreaming, which includes the previously released single "One Day" and nine new tracks. They also released a documentary/concert film Monsta X: The Dreaming on December 8 in South Korea and on December 9 and 11 in seventy countries around the world. The film contains exclusive interviews with the members, clips from their US activities, special stages, and the group's six-year journey. The group will be joining iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball Tour and is set to perform at Philadelphia on December 13, Washington D.C. on December 14, Atlanta on December 16, and Miami on December 19.
Miss You
MONSTA X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
감정에 갇혀진 미로에
헤어나오지 못하고 넌 그저 날 위로해
마지막이란 말은 다 뒤로해
난 니가 생각한 것보다 집요해
Girl 이 자리에 서서
I miss you and thank you
넌 지금 어디에 있어
내가 이렇게 찾고 있다는 걸
넌 알고 있어 yeah yeah
너가 보고 싶을 때
내가 아프다는 걸
넌 이미 알고 있어 baby
Where you at 지금
기다리고 있는 내 얼굴을 뒤로한 채
Where you at 지금
어떻게 날 두고 떠나 baby
Ma baby I miss you
눈을 감을 때마다 니가 생각나
밤하늘의 별도 이젠 너 같아
내가 정말 미치도록 보고 싶어 하는 게
마치 엄마를 잃어버린 어린애 같애
태양처럼 비춰주고 따뜻했던 너
한치 앞이 안보여 넌 대체 어딨어
Uh 아픈 기억들은 밟고서
찬란했던 날들을 다시 밝혀줘
Where you at 지금
기다리고 있는 내 얼굴을 뒤로한 채
Where you at 지금
어떻게 날 두고 떠나 baby
Ma baby I miss you (ma baby I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you
(I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you (ma baby I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you
(I miss you)
가려져있던 니 맘
시간은 흐르고 나서
열린 후에 더 빛나
Girl this time is now
어딘지 갈피를 못 잡어 babe
이제 더 이상 널 못 가져 babe
그래 나 미친 척 하고 널 찾어
너가 있는 곳을 알려줘 my lady
정해져 있는 길이 없어 내 시야엔
그저 앞뒤분간이 안가 지금 미안해
이기적으로 널 대하기만 했던 나지만
마지막으로 널 불러 ma babe
어딘지도 모르는 황야 같은 니 맘속
갈피를 못 잡고 푹 주저 앉았어
내가 내민 손을 잡고 날 일으켜줘
이 더러운 날 지금 다시 일으켜줘
Where you at 지금
기다리고 있는 내 얼굴을 뒤로한 채
Where you at (where you at) 지금 (지금)
어떻게 날 두고 떠나 baby
Ma baby I miss you (ma baby I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you
(I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you (baby I miss you)
Ma baby I miss you
Girl you're ma everything
Girl you're ma everything, ma baby
The song "Miss You" by MONSTA X is a tender ballad that explores the pain of separation and the deep longing for a lost love. The opening lines of the song, "We need time. Trapped in this maze of emotions, you comfort me but I can't escape," set the tone for a song that is all about the struggle to move on from heartbreak. Despite the pain, the lyrics are also filled with hope and an intense desire to be reunited with the loved one: "When I close my eyes, I think of you. The stars in the night sky are like you now. I want to see you so badly, like a child who's lost their mother."
Throughout the song, the singer expresses a deep sense of regret for their actions in the past and a willingness to do whatever it takes to be together with their love again: "I was selfish with you, but now I'm calling out to you, ma babe." The chorus repeats the title of the song, emphasizing the feeling of emptiness and longing that pervades the lyrics: "Where you at now? I'm waiting, with my back turned to you. Where you at now? How could you leave me, baby? My baby, I miss you."
Overall, "Miss You" is a poignant and emotive song that captures the pain and hope of a broken heart. The lyrics express a deep longing for a lost love, while also acknowledging the singer's own role in the relationship's end, and ultimately offering a message of hope for the future.
