Grammar:

• 내 곁에 아무것도 없을 때

  ➔ Adverbial clause of time with “때” (tte)

  ➔ The grammar focuses on the use of "때" (tte) which means "when" or "at the time of." "없을 때" (eopseul ttae) signifies "when there is nothing."

• 스쳐가는 운명 사이로 오늘의 막이 열려

  ➔ Present tense verb ending with passive voice implied.

  ➔ The phrase "열려" (yeollyeo) means "opens", but in this context, it carries an implied passive sense - "the curtain is opened". The verb is in present tense.

• 명장면을 담을 때까지

  ➔ “~까지” (kkaji) meaning “until” combined with “~을/를 때” (eul/reul ttae) meaning “when”

  ➔ This phrase indicates that something will continue *until* the moment *when* the "best scene" is captured. "담을 때까지" means "until the time when [we] capture/include [it]."

• 담겨진 우리 모습

  ➔ Past passive participle modifying a noun

  ➔ "담겨진" (damgyeojin) is the past passive participle of the verb "담기다" (damgida), meaning "to be contained" or "to be captured." It modifies "우리 모습" (uri moseup), which means "our 모습(form/figure/image)". Together, it translates to "our 모습(image/figure/form) that is contained/captured."

• 바래지 않게 I'll remember

  ➔ Negative form of potential verb with adverbial ending and future tense

  ➔ "바래지 않게" (baraeji anhge) means "so that it doesn't fade." "바래다" (baraeda) means "to fade," and "않게" (anhge) is an adverbial ending expressing purpose or manner in a negative context. 'I'll remember' is the future tense action.

• 언제까지라도 난

  ➔ Emphasis particle '라도' (rado) attached to '언제까지' (eonjekkaji)

  ➔ '언제까지라도' (eonjekkajirado) means 'no matter until when' or 'forever'. Adding '라도' (rado) to '언제까지' (eonjekkaji) emphasizes the duration, suggesting 'for however long'.

• Ending credits going up

  ➔ Present continuous tense to describe ongoing action.

  ➔ The phrase uses "going up" (present continuous) to describe the continuous movement of the ending credits. It indicates that the ending credits are in the process of moving upwards at the moment of speaking/singing.
