Grammar notes (4)

-는 짓 = the act of ~ (dismissive)

맘을 숨겨두는 짓은 못해

짓 disdains the act before it happens: hiding one's heart isn't even worth doing.

Pattern: [stem] + 는 짓

Example: 그런 짓 (such an act)

-없이 = without

숨김없이 다 다 다 보여줘

The triple 다 triples the demand for transparency — no gray zone left.

Pattern: [noun] + 없이

Example: 포장 없이 (without packaging)

-ㄴ 그대로 = just as ~ did

맘이 시킨 그대로 맡겨 보라고

The heart gets a command role: the body merely executes its orders.

Pattern: [stem] + 라고

Example: 하라고 한 (told to do)

-(으)ㄴ 순간 = the moment (after) ~ing

낯선 이끌림을 마주한 순간

-ㄴ 순간 freezes the action into a single frame — the exact instant of being pulled.

Pattern: [stem] + ㄴ 순간

Example: 마주친 순간 (the moment we met eyes)
