셉랑해 [sep-rang-hae]

✔ A phrase created and loved by CARAT, SEVENTEEN’s fandom.


It’s a shortened way of saying “세븐틴 사랑해” → “SEVENTEEN, I love you.”



The Meaning of “셉랑해”


“Sep” comes from SEVENTEEN, and “-ranghae” is derived from the Korean word saranghae (사랑해), meaning I love you.

Put together, “셉랑해” is a bright and affectionate shorthand for “SEVENTEEN, I love you.”

Though not an official slogan, it’s so widely used by fans that even official promotions have picked it up—for example, “SEVENTEEN, 셉랑해” appeared in a SEVENTEEN concert film campaign.



How Fans Use It


  • As a daily greeting 👉 “오늘도 셉랑해 💎 / Today, Sep-rang-hae!”

  • During comebacks and promotions 👉 “Let’s finish this era strong—셉랑해!”

  • On social media hashtags 👉 셉랑해 / SEVENTEEN / CARAT


It may be just four syllables, but when fans use it, it instantly feels like an inside code of love and belonging.



Why It Became So Popular


Within the fandom, there’s a tradition of mixing member names with saranghae to create playful love phrases. One of the most famous is 호랑해 (Horanghae: Hoshi + Saranghae), which even SEVENTEEN’s official account has acknowledged. In this context, “셉랑해” naturally emerged and settled as the team-wide version—a fandom-wide declaration of love.



What It Means to CARAT


  • For new fans: A quick way to feel included—a fandom handshake in word form.

  • For longtime fans: A phrase layered with memories from concerts, comebacks, and countless shared moments.


And sometimes, it even goes beyond fan circles into official campaigns—showing how “셉랑해” perfectly captures CARAT’s devotion.



💎 “셉랑해” may be short, but the love it holds is endless.

Today, tomorrow, and always—Sep-rang-hae.
