Glues onto a question word to mean 'whichever, whatever, however'. Six of these eight lines are the same word, 어떻게든, 'somehow, one way or another' — making something simple one way or another, threading the noodles back together somehow, getting you playing football again somehow. One line uses 어디든, 'everywhere is close'. Treat 어떻게든, 어디든 and their relatives as fixed words rather than as a piece to be assembled.
