Verse 1
Arrived at Seoul Station with just a backpack, the air was sharp
Towering forest of skyscrapers — honestly, it knocked the wind out of me
Took the subway the wrong way, been looping for an hour now
Eating a convenience store lunch box — why do I keep thinking about home cooking?

Verse 2
Surrounded by cool people and I’m the only one with yellow linoleum vibes
Even the sound of tapping my card at the turnstile feels off-beat somehow
My hand trembling at the price of one Starbucks iced Americano
So this is the legendary “taste of Seoul”? I can only laugh at the absurdity

Chorus
Standing under the dazzling neon signs, reality finally hit me
Happiness isn’t hiding inside an Instagram filter after all
Mom’s homemade kimchi stew, steaming hot, set out on the table
That’s my true sanctuary — my one and only heaven

Bridge
No need to stretch myself thin just reaching for the top
The dirt path that fits my feet is the most comfortable for me
It’s not failure — it’s just a life-changing trip where I learned what really matters
With light footsteps, I’m ready to log out now

Chorus
Standing under the dazzling neon signs, reality finally hit me
Happiness isn’t hiding inside an Instagram filter after all
Mom’s homemade kimchi stew, steaming hot, set out on the table
That’s my true sanctuary — my one and only heaven

Outro
Goodbye Seoul, thanks — I came away wiser
Back to my home ground where someone’s waiting for me, I’m heading home now
(Fade out with hopeful string melody)
