The word ¡°we¡± refers to the people associated with or on our side. ¡°So¡± implies a state that surpasses a certain degree, and ¡®persistent¡¯ means strong determination and endurance.
¡°We Are So Persistent!¡± When I first heard this phrase, it immediately provided me with comfort and courage, perhaps because I deeply understood the underlying meaning of each word. Over the past few years, I often felt stuck and exhausted, unable to make progress no matter how hard I tried. However, now I realize I am overcoming my limits and persevering with strength because of being with all of you. Perhaps all this time, we have been enduring the scorching heat together, clinging to the iron bar, constantly renewing our records as we dripped thick sweat. Always receiving unwavering support and cheers from my friends who are on my side. We celebrate the new record and look forward to the following remarkable achievement because ¡°We Are So Persistent!¡± (YOON Ga-eun)
