About the Song
《Lean On Me (기대)》 brings a calm and reassuring warmth to SEVENTEEN, featured on Seventeen 3rd Mini Album ’Going Seventeen’. Composed, written, and arranged by BUMZU, with lyrics also by S.COUPS, Vernon, Mingyu, and Wonwoo, the track carries a gentle sense of comfort and quiet support. Its Korean title suggests leaning on someone or placing trust in them, and 《Lean On Me》 turns that feeling into a sincere, easygoing song that highlights SEVENTEEN’s softer emotional color and their natural ability to make warmth feel simple, honest, and memorable.
