어딜 가도 내 온몸을
에워싸는 너의 잔상들이
Surrounding
너로 만든 탈출 못 할
감옥같이 나를 가둬 놓지
어둠 속 깊어진 꿈에 달아나도
두 손 뻗어서 잡은 너의 손끝에
Promise you won't regret
Promise you won't forget
I'm the killer (killer)
잔인했던 이별에
Pull the trigger (trigger)

Despite desperately trying to escape the darkness and deepening dreams, the ghost-like figure of the ex-lover continues to find and haunt them. The singer reaches out for their hand, believing that they won't regret or forget the love they once shared.
The song portrays the heartbreak as a cruel and ruthless separation, with the singer being compared to a killer who shattered their ex-lover's heart.

It is through innocent eyes that the singer now sees the truth, realizing that they were deceived by their own heart and committed a crime against themselves.

The desire to prove their love and bridge the gap between them intensifies, and they offer to hold their ex-lover's phantom and breathe life into it.

SHINee's discography is full of high-quality music, but it may not be to everyone's taste. Their songs often have complex melodies and harmonies, and they are not afraid to experiment with different genres. This can make their music a bit challenging for some listeners, but it also makes it more rewarding for those who appreciate it.
In contrast, the most popular K-pop songs tend to be catchy and upbeat, with repetitive choruses and bright beats. This type of music is more accessible to a wider audience, which is why it is often more popular. However, it can also be seen as less challenging and less innovative.
Of course, there are many factors that contribute to a song's popularity, including marketing and luck. But I believe that the general taste of the public also plays a role. People are more likely to be drawn to music that is familiar and easy to listen to. This is why catchy and upbeat songs often become popular.
SHINee's music is not always easy to listen to, but it is always worth the effort.
Here are some additional thoughts on why SHINee's music may not be as popular as Blackpink or BTS:
- SHINee's music is more experimental and challenging, which can be off-putting to some listeners.
- SHINee's concept is more mature and sophisticated, which may not appeal to younger fans.
- SHINee's marketing has not been as aggressive as Blackpink or BTS, which has limited their exposure to the general public.
Despite these factors, SHINee remains one of the most respected and influential K-pop groups in the world. Their music has been praised by critics and fans alike, and they have won numerous awards. They are a true force in the K-pop industry, and their music will continue to be enjoyed by fans for years to come.
