latch on and not let go

늘어지다 on its own is going slack or hanging limp. Combined with biting (물고) or grabbing (잡고, 붙잡고) it means clinging to something so the other side cannot get away — six lines here are 물고 늘어지다. Figuratively it is refusing to drop a subject: harping on one point, asking endless questions, going after one target and no one else. It is usually a criticism of the person doing it.
