Jaet bit hwa jang ha go

The lyrics of "Masquerade" by Kyuhyun depict the struggles of a person who is living a lie and wearing a mask to hide their true self. The song starts with the lines "Hae ga ji myeon geo ri neun/Jaet bit hwa jang ha go" which mean "Dressed up in a mask before the sun sets". The song continues to talk about the persona and how they are finding it difficult to express their true feelings and emotions because they have been pretending for too long. The line "Ae in deul su in neun/Wae ro un sa ram deu ri" means "Why are people who can hear love so rare?" which highlights how difficult it is to find someone who truly understands and accepts them for who they are.
The chorus of the song repeats the line "I je neun sa rang eul ha go shi peo" which means "I want to love now" and "Seul peun ga jang mu do hwae" which means "Even if it's painful, let it be as it is". These lines depict a sense of urgency and longing to break free of the mask and be true to oneself, even if it means facing pain and hardship.
Overall, "Masquerade" is a powerful depiction of the inner struggles of someone who is living a life of pretense and the desire to break free and find true love and acceptance.

1st thought: aw, cute, he's trying to be rock :)
2nd thought: damn, he actually sang the hell out of that song!
@Rossellinique
+hannahthecritter In my personal opinion his second solo album should be in that style. He's really good at it. I know that he like ballad, but ... he rock! here.

Kyuhyun's voice suits everything <3 It makes my heart flutter

보통 규현 부드러운 발라드 부르다가 여기서는 3옥타브를 그냥 넘기네...그와중에 성량ㄷㄷ
@user-nj5rt3ki1e
발라드는 대부분 부드럽고 예쁘게 불러야 하니까 저런 발성 저런 고음을 안 하는 건데 못 하는 걸로 오해하는 사람들 꽤 있는 것 같아서 안타깝다... 정말 장르 안 가리고 다 잘함
@user-ey8su8ys5h
이렇게 장르안타는 사람은 조발라더가 유일할득
