The imagery in Night Before the End are tiger moths (불나방). In Korea, the word for tiger moth is also used as a term to describe a foolish person who is heading toward disaster. This is because moths have a compulsion to fly towards open flames even though it can lead to their destruction. The song is the narrator seeing the end of their relationship coming and not being able to do anything to alter the outcome. So the night before the end of their love, they can only do their best to soften the fall.
Wow! That's actually quite enlightening and fascinating. I greatly appreciate that you added that context to my listen. It's a great song! Thank you for letting me know.
