Grammar notes (2)
loved AND was loved, so
널 사랑했고 사랑받았으니 난 이걸로 됐어
Both active and passive love are acknowledged: a mature acceptance that the scenario is complete.
Pattern: loved & received → enough
Example: 노력했고 성과냈으니 됐어 (worked hard and got results — enough)
-다면 = if (hypothetical)
그 안에 네가 있다면 그거면 충분해
-다면 is a softer hypothetical than -면: wishing, not asserting.
Pattern: [stem] + ダミョン
Example: 네가 웃는다면 나도 웃을래 (if you smile, I'll smile too)
