불확실 — uncertain

불확실 translates to "uncertain" or "unclear". It's a word that captures a feeling of doubt or ambiguity, which is a common human experience.

In "Moonwalkin'", the artist sings, "너의 대답은 아직 불확실" (Your answer is still uncertain). This highlights the emotional tension in the song, as the speaker is waiting for a clear response from someone important. It's a relatable word that adds depth to the song's narrative about navigating relationships and personal feelings.

Moonwalking is the right image for the spot this song is stuck in: the dance slides you across the floor while carrying you backwards, which is exactly where LNGSHOT are. "시간은 계속 tick-tockin'" (the clock keeps tick-tockin') while "우린 아마도 계속 moonwalkin'" (we're probably still moonwalkin'). He is not complaining, or not much. "난 이대로도 괜찮지만" (I'd be fine just like this, but) is the line that keeps coming back, and the "but" does all the work, because "너의 대답은 아직 불확실" (your answer is still unclear). Halfway through the hook the cool drops and it turns into a plain request: "무슨 말이든 해줘 빨리" (say something, anything, quickly).

The verses explain why he can afford to wait. He remembers dancing "상관없다는 듯한 눈으로" (with a look that said I couldn't care less) back when the pockets were still light, and he reports his own rise as a shopping joke: "더 이상 살 건 이젠 없어" (there's nothing left for me to buy now). Roughly half the lines are Korean and half are English, and it switches mid-line as easily as it switches between swagger and the plain question underneath. Michael Jackson gets named outright, twice, which on a debut single is either very sure of itself or a bit funny, and it lands as both.
