NCT U Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
보랏빛 물든 하늘 아래
한 그루 나무 아래서 잠든 그대
조심스럽게 깨진 않을까
맞닿은 손을 꼭 감싸요
모든 걱정과 아픔을 내게 맡겨요
깊어진 밤 하늘
그댈 품에 안고 위로해 줄게요
잘 자요 내 사랑 음
언젠가 내게 미소를 띄운
창밖의 그댈 기억해요
눈가에 고여있던 아련함까지
괜찮아요 아픔은 잠시
머물다 가는 것뿐이니
그대의 마음을 내가 밝힐게요
깊어진 밤 하늘
별자리의 빛을 머금고
그댈 품에 안고 위로해 줄게요
아프지 말아요
내가 그대와 있을 테니까 음
꿈에라도 걱정 말아요
내가 여기 있으니
Ah, ah, ah, ah
그댈 어루만질
밤하늘에 흩날리는 별
깊어진 밤 하늘
별자리의 빛이 될게요
The lyrics to NCT U's song Good Night paint a picture of a peaceful night scene. The first few lines describe the horizon at the end of a path and a purple-tinted sky above. The song then mentions that one person is asleep beneath a single tree and asks the other not to awaken them. The two intertwine their hands and the person who is awake comforts the one who is asleep, telling them to leave all of their worries and pains with them. The chorus repeats that the awake person will hold the other and comfort them as the stars shine down from above.
The second verse speaks directly to the person who is asleep, telling them not to worry and that their pain will pass. The person who is awake promises to brighten the other's heart and be there for them always. The final lines of the song switch from describing the scene to a direct address to the person who is asleep, telling them to remember that they will always be there for them and that they will become the shining stars in the night sky.
Overall, the song expresses a deep care and comfort between two people despite the pain and worries they face. The image of the stars shining down from the sky and the promise to always be there is a touching reminder that there is always someone who cares for and supports us.

Renjun singing “good night my love” while looking into the camera did some immeasurable damage. I’m never recovering!

SM should really showcase Renjun more. Not only does he have an amazing and heavenly vocals, but he has so much to offer in different aspects as well. Renjun truly is an ace, I can't wait to see more of him this 2022.
