S.E.S. is considered one of K-pop's first highly successful girl groups. They were challenged by groups like Fin.K.L and Baby V.O.X, which debuted soon after S.E.S. and also enjoyed success.
The group's end came because of contract expiration of members Bada and Eugene in 2003, though Shoo eventually also parted ways with SM Entertainment in 2006. S.E.S. officially disbanded in mid-2003, after the release of the compilation album Beautiful Songs, though they had been inactive since 2002, when they released their last original single S.II.S (Soul To Soul), from the greatest hits album Friend.
In subsequent years, the former members ventured into solo music activies and also acting, to varying degrees of success.
In October 2016, it was publicly announced that the trio would be returning to the music scene to celebrate their 20th anniversary since debuting with the album I'm Your Girl. After releasing the buzz single Love [story], a remake of their 1999 single Love, through SM Entertainment's digital project SM Station on November 28, their special album Remember was announced, scheduled for a January 2, 2017 release with double title tracks Remember and 한 폭의 그림 (Paradise).

S.E.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
숨이 턱까지 찼나요
할 수 없죠 어차피
시작해 버린 것을
쏟아지는 햇살 속에
입이 바싹 말라와도
할 수 없죠 창피하게
단 한가지 약속은
틀림없이 끝이 있다는 것
끝난 뒤에 지겨울 만큼
오랫동안 쉴 수 있다는 것
지겨운 가요 힘든가요
숨이 턱까지 찼나요
할 수 없죠 어차피
시작 해 버린 것을
쏟아지는 햇살 속에
입이 바싹 말라와도
할 수 없죠 창피하게
멈춰 설 순 없으니
이유도 없이 가끔은
눈물나게 억울하겠죠
일등 아닌 보통들에겐
박수조차 남의 일인걸
단 한가지 약속은
틀림없이 끝이 있다는 것
끝난 뒤에 지겨울 만큼
오랫동안 쉴 수 있다는 것
It's good enough for me, bye bye bye bye
It's good enough for me, bye bye bye bye
It's good enough for me, bye bye bye bye
It's good enough for me, bye bye bye bye
The lyrics of the song "달리기" by S.E.S. express the feeling of exhaustion and the struggle to keep going. The singer questions if they are tired of the same routine or if it's just difficult to continue. They feel suffocated and overwhelmed, but they acknowledge that they have no choice but to keep going because they have already started something.
Even though they are in a situation where the sunlight is pouring down on them and drying up their mouth, they cannot stop or take a break because it would be embarrassing and shameful. The lyrics convey a sense of determination and resilience, highlighting the idea that once they start something, they cannot simply give up.
The song also touches upon the fact that sometimes, for no reason, they feel unfairly sad and shed tears. They understand that they are not exceptional or outstanding individuals, but just ordinary people. They acknowledge that even applause is reserved for others, not for them.
Throughout the lyrics, there is a repeated statement about a promise: the promise that everything will eventually come to an end. The singer accepts that there will be an end to their struggles and monotony, and that after it ends, they will have a long period to rest and find relief. This promise serves as their motivation to keep going and endure the difficulties they face.
The repetition of "It's good enough for me, bye bye bye bye" at the end of the lyrics can be seen as a mantra or affirmation. It emphasizes that the current situation may not be perfect, but it is satisfactory and enough for them. It signifies a sense of resignation and acceptance of their circumstances, bidding farewell to any dissatisfaction or longing for more.

50대초반 직장인입니다. 정년이 10년 이내이고 하루종일 나보다 나이많은 사람을 못보는 날이 많습니다. 이 노래를 들으면서 가족을위해 끝까지 직장생활 잘 마쳐야겠다는 다짐을 합니다. 예전에 들었을 때와는 다른 느낌으로 다가옵니다.
