Phrase Meaning & Pronunciation

1) 공부해서 남 주니?
Romanization: Gong-bu-hae-seo nam ju-ni?
Literal meaning: “If you study, do you give (the result) to others?”
Intended meaning: What you study never goes to waste—it becomes yours (your gain).
Wordplay note: nam ju-ni sounds like Namjoon-i (Namjoon with a friendly suffix), hinting at a beloved brainy idol without naming him.

2) 뇌섹남 따라 똑똑해져요.
Romanization: Noe-saeng-nam tta-ra ttok-ttok-hae-jyeo-yo.
Natural meaning: “Follow the brainy guy and you’ll get smarter.”
Stylistic note: ttok-ttok (“smart/clever”) doubles the syllable for punchy emphasis; the doubled tt marks a tense consonant in Korean and adds playful energy.
