Grammar notes (2)

-듯이 = as if / like

숨죽여 먹잇감을 사냥하듯이

-듯이 completes the hunting metaphor: love driven by instinct, not reason.

Pattern: [stem] + ドゥシ + [verb]

Example: 짐승처럼 사랑하다 (love like a beast)

어차피 = anyway / in either case

어차피 너와 나는 love or hate

어차피 eliminates the middle ground: love or hate, no in-between.

Pattern: [noun] + or + [noun] + アチャピ

Example: 어차피 결과는 같아 (the result is the same anyway)
