K-netizens are humorously discussing these lyrics in TWICE and Red Velvet's songs.

Are these lyrics intended for adult listeners? Netizens are asking if they are covertly labeled as '19+' (R-rated). Specific songs in question include TWICE's "Like OOH-AHH" and Red Velvet’s "Ice Cream Cake." The debate is allegedly stemming mainly from international fans' interpretation of the lyrics in a way that suggests a risqué theme.

The lyrics that are hilariously sparking debates are:

(from TWICE's "Like OOH-AHH")

"I’m waiting for someone who can make me feel
Something like never before
I’ll wait, no matter how long it takes
I just wanna fall in love
What to do, keep me still
Make me like ooh ahh ooh ahh
Fake, fake, empty-hearted fake
Goodbye, good riddance (Like OOH-AHH)

What to do, make me speechless
Make me like ooh ahh ooh ahh
Bla la la la stop talking, start doing
Make me feel (Like OOH-AHH)

[...]

Don’t wanna start with just anybody
I’m not a girl who gives it up so easily

Let me see how you gon’ treat me
I ain’t no easy
Better think about it TWICE
Let me see how you gon’ treat me
I ain’t no easy
Better think about it TWICE"

(from Red Velvet's "Ice Cream Cake")

"Please give me that sweet taste, ice cream cake
With a flavor that fits this special day
The ice cream that’s on my mouth
Makes your heart pound and you’ll come to me
It’s so tasty come and chase me, I can’t hold it in
I scream, you scream

Gimme that, gimme that ice cream

Oh vanilla chocolate honey with a cherry on top
I’ll show you different things every day, only to you
With more variety than the rainbow reflected in the fountain
I’ll be pulled even more by you, who draws out my love

Take me and go, hurry and go
Put me on a small scooter
My hands that wrap around your waist
Will make your heart pound even after the day has passed

Please give me that sweet taste, ice cream cake
With a flavor that fits this special day
The ice cream that’s on my mouth
Makes your heart pound and you’ll come to me
It’s so tasty come and chase me, I can’t hold it in
I scream, you scream

[...]

Pops, it’s melting in my mouth
Putting so much in that it’ll feel like my mouth is melting down
Baby boy, other guys don’t know anything
You’re so fine so only wear clothes that don’t make you stand out
Never get me wrong my boo
I have no interest in that bag
From boring Mondays to Wednesday, Thursday, man I wanna pass
Your look toward me, I see some good vibes
It’s a good feeling when my eyes meet yours

[...]

Hurry and give me that soft taste, ice cream cake
I’ll light the candles as I only wait for you
In my warm heart, ice cream cake
Kiss me before it melts
It’s so tasty, come and chase me
Your lips are sweetly melting, I’m closing my eyes

That sweet taste, ice cream cake
With a flavor that fits this special day"

K-netizens' reactions include:

"What a talent it is to understand those lyrics in that way after the first listen........"

"Lol I see it"
"I can totally tell that they shamelessly targeted them in that way"

"I think it's obvious that they are 19+ lyrics"
"I had no idea before but now I know..."
"Now that I am reading it, I get it"
"I never thought of it that way but okay, I see it"

"Isn't it true that they are covertly being suggestive of 19+?"
"They are insinuating it"
"Full of innuendos"
"I admit, I knew that the TWICE song was 19+ when I first listened to it"

"I also thought that the OOH-AHH song was strange lol"
"I never lived abroad but I get it too lmao"
"Not sure about Ice Cream Cake but OOH-AHH...."
"I knew about both of them~ haha"
"I had NO IDEA"

"The devil is in me"
"It's almost been 10 years and I never knew lol"

"It's OBVIOUS NOW"
"Lol I once saw a video of the international fans reacting to the lyrics of these songs and then everyone became silent"

"I just knew that J.Y. Park was just being J.Y. Park when I first heard OOH-AHH lol"
