Posted by The K-pop girl group NewJeans is back in July 2023 with a new single, Super Shy, exploring their relationship with love and infatuation again. Since last year, the band expressed the topic in many ways, with songs like Cookie, Ditto, and OMG. Super Shy seems to introduce a new dimension, though: let’s explore the song’s meaning, and you’ll also find the English translation of the lyrics at the end of this article.
You can watch the official video for NewJeans’ Super Shy below.
Super Shy: the English lyrics & meaning
In the lyrics of Super Shy, NewJeans describe their feelings while being with the boy they are in love with. They are finally face to face with the person they are attracted to and realize how shy they are. However, that doesn’t prevent them from winning his heart.
For many fans, this represents a change in NewJeans’ evolution: before Super Shy, the singers always described what they felt inside their introspection, without daring to get closer to that man. But with this song, it seems clear that the singers are finally in front of the boy they are infatuated with.
I’m super shy, super shy
But wait a minute while I make you mine, make you mine
Trembling even now, you’re on my mind all the time
Reading the lyrics in Super Shy, we discover that NewJeans are in a public place with this man. Far from everyone’s eyes, an intense moment that fuels their emotions. This is confirmed by the official video, where we see NewJeans in open places like the park, the bus, or the supermarket.
And I wanna go out with you
Where you wanna go? (Huh?)
Find a lil spot, just sit and talk
Looking pretty, follow me
The two of us side by side
Can you see (look)
My eyes (Heh)
Suddenly shine
When you say I’m your dream
There is something special running between them. The singer explains it when she says he seems to know her name better than anyone else. Two pure souls, looking at each other in their depths, listening to their feelings.
You don’t even know my name
Do ya-a?
More than anyone
Yeah, you’re special and you know it
You’re the top, babe
That’s the only meaning behind the lyrics of Super Shy: I’m here now, in front of you, looking at you, and my heart is bursting. I’m shy, I’m not used to this kind of situation. But I know it will work: you’ll be mine, after all.
