want to — a softer, wistful '-고 싶다'

-고프다 is -고 싶다 'want to' squeezed into one word. It sounds warmer and more sentimental than the plain form, which is why seven of these eight lines are on-screen captions rather than speech: 얼른 보고픈 우리 지누 'our Jinu, who I can't wait to see', 맛있는 건 나누고픈 맘 'the urge to share the good stuff'. In every line it appears before a noun (먹고픈 거 'things I want to eat') or as the noun form -고픔.
