Lyrics by 전소미,VVN
Composed by VVN,KUSH,IDO
Arranged by IDO

The moment we met again after a decade of standing still.
The title track, “Suddenly,” is a synth-pop track that delicately captures longing and memories. Member Jeon Somi contributed to the lyrics, infusing the song with the authenticity of the time we’ve shared and the tenderness of a relationship being rekindled.
Amid the fast-paced flow of daily life, emotions that suddenly and unexpectedly arise transport us back to those days through the repeated lyrics “Suddenly.” The outro, which deeply fills the latter half of the song, leaves a complex afterglow, as if dormant emotions are reawakening and delivers a profound resonance.

Hangul

어쩌면 잘된 일이야
빨간 노을빛처럼
예쁜 널 보내야 했던 그때가

머나먼 희미한 기억
이젠 내 맘속 널 지워야 하나

자려고 누웠는데 갑자기
너에 대한 생각에 잠겨
In the midnight 별처럼 감정들이 쏟아져
Ooh 갑자기 너에 대한 그리움에 사무쳐
Till the morning
그렇게 아침이 밝아오네
잊으려 누웠는데

막혀 있는 도로 위
수많은 차 중 하나
내 마음 알아주던 너는 어디 있을까

머나먼 희미한 기억
이젠 내 맘속 널 지워야 하나

자려고 누웠는데 갑자기
너에 대한 생각에 잠겨
In the midnight 별처럼 감정들이 쏟아져
Ooh 갑자기 너에 대한 그리움에 사무쳐
Till the morning
그렇게 아침이 밝아오네
잊은 줄 알았는데

아무리 애써도
괜찮은 척해 봐도
잊을 만하면 또 드리워지는 기억
우리 추억들
자꾸만 아른아른거리잖아

Lalala lalala lalalala lala
Lalala lalala lalalala lala
Ooh lalala lalala lalalala lala
Lalala lalala lalalala lala

너 뭔데 갑자기

English Translation

Maybe it’s for the best
That back then, I had to let you go
who were as beautiful as the red sunset

A distant, faint memory
should I erase you from my heart now?

I lay down to sleep, but suddenly
I’m drowned in thoughts of you
In the midnight, emotions pour down like stars
Ooh suddenly I’m overcome with longing for you
Till the morning
Just like that, the morning dawns
Even though I lay down to forget

On top of this blocked road
Just one of the many cars
Where are you now, the one who used to understand my heart?

A distant, faint memory
should I erase you from my heart now?

I lay down to sleep, but suddenly
I’m drowned in thoughts of you
In the midnight, emotions pour down like stars
Ooh suddenly I’m overcome with longing for you
Till the morning
Just like that, the morning dawns
Even though I thought I forgot

No matter how hard I try,
no matter how much I pretend to be okay
Just when I’m about to forget, the memories cast a shadow again
Our memories
they keep flickering before my eyes

Lalala lalala lalalala lala
Lalala lalala lalalala lala
Ooh lalala lalala lalalala lala
Lalala lalala lalalala lala

Who do you think you are, coming to mind so suddenly?
