The Graceful Struggle Behind Success

The song "EASY" by LE SSERAFIM is a powerful anthem that speaks to the resilience and determination required to succeed in the face of adversity. The lyrics convey a message of pushing through pain and challenges, as the protagonist insists on walking the path despite being hurt, symbolized by the line "다친대도, 길을 걸어, kiss me." This suggests a defiance against the difficulties, and a determination to keep moving forward with grace and confidence.

The repeated assertion that the artist makes it look 'easy' is a commentary on the perception of success. The lyrics "Stage 위엔 불이 튀어, 내 body / Pull up and I rip it up like ballet" juxtapose the intensity of performing on stage with the elegance of ballet, highlighting the skill and effort it takes to make challenging tasks appear effortless. This is further emphasized by the metaphor of being a swan on the water's surface, serene and graceful, while paddling furiously beneath – a classic image of appearing calm and collected while working hard out of sight.

The song also touches on themes of self-identity and the struggle to be recognized for one's true worth. The lines "세상에게 난 반쪽짜리 Seraphim" suggest a feeling of being incomplete or misunderstood by the world. The artist is trying to show their true self, as indicated by "I've been tryin' so long to show you, show you, show you." Overall, "EASY" is a motivational track that encourages listeners to persevere and to recognize the hidden efforts behind every success.
