About the Song
《Yawn (하품)》 is a delicate and deeply emotional track by SEVENTEEN, featured on SEVENTEEN 11th Mini Album ‘SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN’, released in 2023 under PLEDIS Entertainment. Composed by WOOZI and BUMZU, with lyrics by WOOZI, and arranged by WOOZI, BUMZU, and Lee Beom Hoon, the song turns quiet sadness into something soft and beautifully restrained, capturing the ache of parting, the weight of unspoken feelings, and SEVENTEEN’s gentle emotional depth in a ballad that feels intimate, sincere, and quietly devastating.

The air that drifts away
When did it become so cold?

Even if I practice, it won’t work
Because it was everything to me

On the paper of my heart full of scribbles about me
There’s a request written down

You know it was a good choice
Couldn’t even speak of the pain
You must have suffered alone

You’re my breath
Don’t feel sorry
It’s just like a yawn that comes from lack

On the paper of my heart full of scribbles about me

Yawn
on-tong neo-ro ga-deuk-hae-sseo
ne-ga eop-neun na-e ma-eum mo-ja-ra-meun
gu-meong nan a-peum gat-eun geo-ya
Was filled with you
The lack in my heart without you
Is like a hole of pain
The song beautifully captures the profound sorrow and tender solace of an inevitable farewell, comparing tears of grief to an involuntary yawn. It portrays the painful reality of trying to let go of someone who was once an entire universe and a vital source of breath. Reassuring the beloved not to indulge in self-blame or guilt over their decision, the track articulates a tragic yet compassionate devotion that shelters a wounded companion through overwhelming emotional deficiency and love.
