Ooh
Umm
Hoo, hmm, hmm
Hey!

Who dat, who dat, who dat boy?
수많은 사람 속 눈에 띈 (aha)
무심한 그 표정 I like that
내 호기심을 자극하지 (aha, aha)

Oh 시크한 스타일은 덤
입은 옷은 신경 쓴 듯, 안 쓴 듯 (안 쓴 듯)
관심 없는 말투 I like that
외면해 봐도 끌려 ooh

달라, 도도한 날 웃게 하잖아
알잖아 요즘 내가 hot ah ah
날 보는 시선 너도 느껴봐 ooh

홀린 듯 날 따라와
모두 환호해 너도 곧 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
아닌 척해도 넌 ooh, ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
한 번 내기를 해볼까?

너무 쉽겐 오지 마
재미 없잖아 거기서 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
밀고 당겨볼까? Ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
시작할게 bad boy down

Ooh-whoa-uh-uh-oh, ooh-whoa-uh-uh-oh
지금부터 bad boy down
Ooh-whoa-uh-uh-oh, ooh-whoa-uh-ooh-whoa, whoa

잠깐 이리 와봐, 너에게만 할 말이 있어
가까이 좀 와, 고갤 숙여 키를 낮춰봐 (ooh)
다른 건 신경 쓰지 마
내 목소리에 집중해

상황은 좀 달라져 (ooh!)
주위를 맴도는 내가 궁금해
너도 알게 될 거야 (뭘까?) 알 거야 (말해)
이미 늦어버렸단 걸

맞아 (맞아) 사실 꽤나 자신 있어 난
지는 게임 하진 않아 ha ah ah
벌써 반쯤은 넘어왔잖아

홀린 듯 날 따라와
모두 환호해 너도 곧 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
아닌 척해도 넌 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
한 번 내기를 해볼까?

너무 쉽겐 오지 마
재미없잖아 거기서 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
밀고 당겨볼까? Ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
시작할게 bad boy down

혼란스런 맘이겠지, 상상조차 못할 거야
헤어나려 노력해도 어떤 작은 틈도 없어
정답은 정해져 있어, 자연스럽게 넌 따라와 (넌 따라와)
난 널 선택해, 난 널 선택했어 이미

홀린 듯 날 따라와
모두 환호해 말했지 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
결관 항상 같아 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
거봐, 내가 또 이겼어

너무 쉽겐 오지 마
재미 없잖아, 이제 넌 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)




벗어날 수 없어 ooh ooh (ooh-eh-oh-eh-oh)
내겐 쉽지 bad boy down

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Red Velvet's "Bad Boy" explore the feelings of attraction and playfulness between a woman and a man who exudes confidence and nonchalance. The song starts with the woman noticing the man and enjoying his expressionless demeanor and casual clothing. She finds it intriguing that he doesn't seem interested in her, but she's still drawn to him. She wants him to chase her and make her smile, knowing that she's considered "hot" at the moment. The chorus repeats the phrase "bad boy down" as an invitation for him to play along with her.


In the second verse, the woman gets closer to the man and asks him to listen to her. She tells him not to worry about anything else and focus on her voice. She hints at a twist in their situation and teases him about it, as she knows he's already halfway falling for her. She challenges him to a game of push and pull, making it clear that she won't be won over easily and he needs to work for her attention. The bridge leads to a realization that despite the confusion and effort, they are the perfect match for each other. The woman chooses the man and affirms her victory, leaving him with no choice but to accept her.

"Who dat, who dat boy" will always be iconic. I hope they kept that lyrics when they perform instead of changing it.
