From Mmmh song lyrics by Kai above, we are gonna discuss the highlight terms.

1. 내가 너무 나빠서 (Naega neomu nappaseo) – First Line of Mmmh Lyrics by EXO’S Kai

This is the first line of Kai Mmmh lyrics. We could translate 내가 (Naega) to “I am”. 너무 (Neomu) is kind of intensifier to strengthen and emphasize the following word. It means “so”, “too”, or “very”. 나빠서 (Nappaseo) derives from 나쁘다 (nappeuda) that means “bad” or “wicked”. So the whole meaning of 내가 너무 나빠서 (Naega neomu nappaseo) is “I am too bad” or “I am too wicked”.

2. 네 맘을 전부 빼앗고 싶어져 (Ne mameul jeonbu bbaeatgo sipeojyeo)

맘을 is a slang word from 마음 (maeum) which means “heart” and it is added by object particle -을. 전부 (Jeonbu) means “whole” or “all”. 빼앗고싶어져 (bbaeatgo sipeojyeo) consists of two phrases: 빼앗다 (bbaetda) that means to steal or to take and Korean conjunction -고 싶다 (-go sipda) to indicate a desire. So the point of this line is “I wanna take all of your heart”. It actually explains the previous line 내가 너무 나빠서 (Naega neomu nappaseo). If we combine these two lines, it implies that I feel so wicked because I want to take your whole heart.

3. 다른 생각은 하지마 (Dareun saenggakeun hajima)

다른 (Dareun) is basically an adjective word and has multiple meanings: different, unlike, diverse, other/ another, or else. 생각은 (Saenggakeun) derives from 생각하다 (saenggakhada) which means to think or consider. 하지마 (Hajima) is informal negative imperative phrase. We use 하지마 (hajima) if we want to ask someone not to do something. Shortly, you could translate it to “do not”. So, the whole meaning of “다른 생각은 하지마” (Dareun saenggakeun hajima) is “Don‘t ever think about the other things”.

4. 그들의 질투가 네 몸을 떨게 만들어 (Geudeurui jiltuga ne momeul tteoke mandeureo)

그들의 (Geudeurui) is Korean possessive adjective form for “their”. 질투 (Jiltu) means jealousy and is added by subject particle -가 (-ga). 네 몸 (Ne mom) means “your body” followed by object particle -을 (-eul). 떨게 만들어 (Tteoke mandeureo) derives from the base form 떨다 (tteolda) that means “shiver” and 만들다 (mandeulda) that means to make. If we combine those phrases, the literal meaning is “their jealousy makes your body shiver”. However, the suitable translation of  그들의 질투가 네 몸을 떨게 만들어 (Geudeurui jiltuga ne momeul tteoke mandeureo) in Kai Mmmh lyrics is “Their jealousy makes you shiver”.
