I'll Be Missing You

BTS's song 'I'll Be Missing You' is a poignant expression of grief and longing for a loved one who has passed away. The lyrics convey a deep sense of loss and the struggle to cope with the absence of someone dearly missed. The song opens with a dedication to anyone who has lost a loved one, setting a tone of empathy and shared sorrow.

The chorus, with its repetitive lines 'Every step I take, Every move I make, Every single day, Every time I pray, I'll be missing you,' emphasizes the constant presence of loss in daily life. It reflects the idea that no matter what one does, the void left by the departed is always felt. The song also touches on the hope of reunion after life, suggesting a belief in an afterlife or spiritual continuation where they can once again see the face of the person they miss.

The verses in Korean add another layer to the song, discussing the challenges of living through a pandemic and the feelings of isolation it has caused. The lyrics mention the difficulty of continuing life without giving up, despite not knowing when the end of the pandemic will come. The song ends with a promise to meet the lost loved one again, reinforcing the theme of enduring love and the hope of reconnection beyond this life.
