“Eve’s Warning” followed the popular dance music trends of the era while distinctly showcasing Park Mi Kyung’s individuality and musical color.
Powerful Euro Dance Rhythm and Vocals

The Subjective Female Figure Issuing a ‘Warning’
The lyrics tell the story of a female narrator who refuses to be controlled by a man and issues a “warning” not to mistreat her.
“나에게는 더 이상 순애보는 없어, 난 널 그냥 떠나버릴거야.” (Translation: I won’t be a pure romantic anymore. I’ll just Leave you.)
This subjective female figure (Girl Crush) was a breath of fresh air for the public, solidifying Park Mi Kyung’s image as a “Warrior” or “Diva” in the industry.

| 오늘도 넌 나를 피해 딴 생각을 하지만 난 알고 있어 나의 예감은 한 번도 틀린 적이 없어 걱정스런 맘 이런 내 마음을 알고 있다면 나에게 더 이상 실수하지마 내게도 너 아닌 멋진 남자가 가끔 날 유혹해 흔들릴 때도 있어 너에게만 있는 능력처럼 그렇게 날 속이려고 하면 나에게는 더 이상 순애보는 없어 난 널 그냥 떠나 버릴거야 너에게 실수하고 싶은 마음은 없었어 나의 호기심이 잠시 날 흔들리게 했을 뿐 너에게 구차한 변명 따위는 하지 않을게 이젠 날 이해해줘 내 잘못을 인정 할테니 그렇게 말을 하면 나도 할 말은 없어 이해해 줄께 하지만 내게 약한 모습은 보이지 마 사랑하니까 언제나 당당한 너의 모습에 난 항상 매력을 느꼈던 거야 누구나 한 번은 실수하지만 두 번은 안돼 내가 못 견딜테니까 너에게만 있는 능력처럼 그렇게 날 속이려고 하면 나에게는 더 이상 순애보는 없어 난 널 그냥 떠나버릴 거야 이제는 알 것 같아 숨겨진 너의 마음을 언제나 가볍게 넌 나를 대하고는 했지만 네 속에 숨어있는 너의 그 표독함까지 언제나 나를 위한 마음이었다는 것을 가만히 생각하면 나 자꾸만 화가 나 참으려 해도 내가 그렇게 네게 매력이 없었을까 난 모르겠어 어떻게 나 아닌 다른 사람과 몰래 데이트를 할 수 있는지 지금 내 마음가짐으론 너를 이해할 수 없지만 한 번은 참는거야 너에게만 있는 능력처럼 그렇게 날 속이려고 하면 나에게는 더 이상 순애보는 없어 난 널 그냥 떠나버릴 거야 너에게만 있는 능력처럼 그렇게 날 속이려고 하면 나에게는 더 이상 순애보는 없어 난 널 그냥 떠나버릴 거야 | Even today, you’re avoiding me And thinking of someone else, but I know. My intuition has never been wrong, My worried heart knows. If you understand my feelings, Don’t make a mistake with me again. There are handsome men other than you Who sometimes tempt me and make me waver, too. If you try to deceive me As if it were a unique skill only you possess, I won’t be a pure romantic anymore. I’ll just Leave you. I didn’t intend to make a mistake toward you. It was just my curiosity that briefly made me waver. I won’t give you any pitiful excuses. Now, please understand me; I’ll admit my mistake. If you say that, I have nothing more to say. I’ll forgive you. But don’t show me any weakness, Because I love you. It was your confident self That always attracted me. Everyone makes a mistake once, But not twice—I won’t be able to stand it. If you try to deceive me As if it were a unique skill only you possess, I won’t be a pure romantic anymore. I’ll just Leave you. Now I think I know your hidden feelings. You always treated me lightly, But even that apparent coldness Hidden inside you was always out of consideration for me. When I think about it quietly, I keep getting angry. Even when I try to hold it back, Was I that unappealing to you? I don’t know. How could you secretly date Someone other than me? With my current mindset, I can’t understand you, But I’ll overlook it this one time. If you try to deceive me As if it were a unique skill only you possess, I won’t be a pure romantic anymore. I’ll just Leave you. If you try to deceive me As if it were a unique skill only you possess, I won’t be a pure romantic anymore. I’ll just Leave you. |
