We occasionally have a Kpop night on /v/ModernPowers. In a lot of the songs, they say a word that sounds like "nigger". At first I thought it was just just a coincidence, but we hear it all the time and it is said far too often for it to be accidental.
Is there a Korean word that sounds similar to nigger? If so, what does it mean? This has been troubling us for weeks now, anyone who can shed light on this would be very helpful.
EDIT: Someone on freenode just said "nay ge" is a Chinese phrase that means "that". Is there something similar in Korean?

내가- (Nae ga) I am
너가/니가- (Nuh ga/Nee ga) You are
Or maybe they're emulating rap music. You never know.

Yep, I just clearly heard nae ga in the song we're playing now, thanks for the clarification.
Enjoy
