Mirror

À propos

Two different lives. The exact same weight. What happens when you recognize pieces of your own story in someone you've never met? Mirror is one of the most vulnerable songs I've ever written. I grew up learning how to be strong before I understood what strength was supposed to mean. Poverty, fear, family struggles, and experiences I couldn't always put into words became parts of a past I spent years trying to understand. Then I discovered Min Yoongi's music. His willingness to speak about difficult experiences made me feel less alone in my own. Two people can live completely different lives and still recognize something familiar in each other's stories. But this song isn't about pretending our experiences are identical. It's about looking into a mirror and finally asking myself the questions I've spent years avoiding. How do you keep going when everything feels overwhelming? How do you turn difficult memories into something meaningful? And how do you stop letting your past decide who you're allowed to become? Mirror is raw, haunting, and deeply personal. Through heavy hip-hop beats, melancholic piano, cinematic strings, and bilingual English-Korean lyrics, I explore the distance between the person I pretend to be and the person I'm still discovering
