English Translation:
The clown face drawn on the mask is not a tiger
Always smiling, the angle of the lips never changing
Always wishing everyone to be happy as his birthday wishes
But the concerned greetings and hugs always feel like negative 10 degrees

He's full of vagueness and his expressions change habitually
His expressions are only skin deep anyways
He's full of mystery and he performs habitually
Turing the illusionary truth into disarray

Under the clown mask you are happier then everybody
But you can't hide, the redness around your eyes
The clown mask shows an expression of innocence
Hypnotizing you to sleep in a boundless dream

Who can see my real face?
The pain of not tearing, smiling yet not really
Who can see my real face?
Do a magic trick and take the mask off

Whose duty is it to maintain world peace?
In actuality everyone is scared that their opinions will lead to lawsuit
Who can hear the murmuring under the mask?
It's very tiring to live under a smile that's only skin deep

Ignoring the calls of your rivals
Heartlessly protect ourselves
The more cold heartedly I live
The more addictive the loneness becomes

The different layers of skins under the mask
All hope to feel some warmth
The more you run away from happiness, the distance grows
I can not catch up, yet others find my situation envious

    OMG! I love this video. It's very artsy and dark. I mean, flashy dance videos are cool, but I prefer MV's with hidden meanings and a good theme. This MV is so perfect for the song. If you read the lyrics and watch the MV, you get a sense that this may be referring to his life as an entertainer, particularly in Korea. The robot in the video is like a symbol of the fake thing he was forced to become and all the masks he had to wear. Like someone was pulling his strings. The end really pushed that theme through with the shot of the robot being built and how sad it looked. Also, I love the part of the MV where Hannie bursts out of the robot and starts dancing freely. It was as if it represented him finally breaking free (Like maybe from SM)? I may be reading too much into it, but I love this MV SO MUCH and the song is wonderful! Sorry Suju, I think Hannie's got you beat..., even though I love y, Free, and Single. This is just much deeper feeling to me and more creative.
