Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DBSK's "HEY!" speak about the struggles and complexities of relationships, particularly those between men and women. The song opens with the assertion that words spoken at the beginning of a relationship will eventually be rendered moot by its end, as circumstances change and people's feelings become more complicated. The singer acknowledges that his partner is the only one who truly knows him, and that he is afraid of failing to meet her expectations. Men and women are depicted as struggling to understand each other; the singer expresses frustration with women's constant need for reassurance and men's tendency to taciturnity.


Despite these difficulties, the song is ultimately about the power of love to overcome all obstacles, as the singer insists that he will never stop trying to make his relationship work. The references to "Cut up, cut up" and "Break it down" may be interpreted as an call to break down the barriers to communication between men and women and to work towards mutual understanding.
