Exploring the Beautiful and Evocative Lyrics of SEVENTEEN's Songs

SEVENTEEN's lyrics are currently generating buzz in Korea for their diverse emotional depth and imaginative storytelling. From group tracks that paint utopian visions to solo projects exploring complex feelings, their lyrical artistry is capturing the attention of fans and critics alike.

The group's song "Heaven's Cloud" is noted for its dreamy and somewhat ambiguous lyrics, which collectively build a fantastical worldview. Phrases like "warm coffee in a cup made of clouds" and "a watercolor covering winter of the heart with five colors" evoke a happy, fairytale-like utopia. Meanwhile, SEVENTEEN's Dino, under his sub-character Picheolin, released the City Pop digital single "There is no painless farewell (narr. Lee Moon-sae)" on July 15, 2026. This track, a pre-release for his mini-album '吉BOARD' due August 3, 2026, features lyrics co-written by Dino and BUMZU, expressing the loneliness and warm memories following a breakup with Lee Moon-sae's deep narration.

Local bloggers highlight how "Heaven's Cloud" creates an immersive, heavenly atmosphere through its poetic expressions, suggesting a romantic connection that transcends memory or even reincarnation. For Picheolin's song, the sophisticated City Pop sound combined with Lee Moon-sae's narration offers an experience akin to a late-night radio show, providing mature comfort to those reflecting on past relationships. The music video for "There is no painless farewell" further enhances this by visually portraying breakup emotions through Dino's movements in an urban setting.
