CHEERS

SEVENTEEN's 'CHEERS' is a song that encapsulates the spirit of celebration and the journey of overcoming challenges to achieve success. The lyrics convey a sense of triumph and camaraderie among the members as they reflect on their past and look forward to the future. The repeated use of 'Cheers' in the chorus serves as a metaphorical toast to their accomplishments and the hard work that has led them to where they are now.

The song begins with a reference to creating music without the traditional elements of kick and snare, suggesting that SEVENTEEN is unafraid to break the mold and innovate. The lyrics '우린 지하 방에서 건물을 올리지' (We build buildings from the basement) metaphorically speak to the group's humble beginnings and their rise to fame, building their legacy from the ground up. The line '모두가 우릴 보고 망할 거라고 했어' (Everyone said we would fail) highlights the skepticism they faced, yet they proved doubters wrong with their success.

The song also touches on themes of individuality and not caring about others' opinions, as seen in the lines '우린 우리가 마음에 들어? I don't give a buck bro.' This showcases the group's confidence and self-assurance, emphasizing that their self-worth is not dependent on external validation. 'CHEERS' is a celebration of SEVENTEEN's journey, their unity as a group, and their determination to continue pushing boundaries in their music and performances.
