## Background

Face was written by Jang Jiwon (장지원), composed by Daniel Barkman and arranged by Lee Yoo-jin (이유진).

The theme of the song surrounds the topic of bullying. The song discussed a boy and his need to prove his masculinity at all costs as a result of societal pressure and predetermined requirements of masculinity. The song explores that concept to an extent, almost berating this character for trying too hard and suggesting he shouldn’t be afraid to ask for help.

This is a story about a dwarf and giant
But it’s gonna end just like david and goliath
Keep up with my pace, it you can
Don`t lag wile e.Coyote cuz i’m road runner, fast!

걸리적거리는 stupid 뭐라니
머릿속이 가벼워서
말도 깃털 같아
손바닥만한 이 좁은 곳에서
오 히말라야나 찾고 있는 너완 달라
거기 다쳐
멀리 비켜 다쳐
때로는 용감해서 문제지
외쳐 구해달라 외쳐
아니면 지금부터 너 잘 봐

터져 나오는 Jackpot
누가 뭐라 건 so what
이게 너와 나의 차이라고
터져 나오는 Jackpot
멈출때까지 can`t stop
꼭 깨져봐야 아픈 줄 알지
그래서 니가 거기까지란 거야

벌써부터 배워먹은 쇼맨십
벌써부터 갖다 버린 friendship
그래 어디 가서 자랑해
나쁜 건 또 누구보다 빨리 배우지 쉿!

허우적거리는 stupid 괜찮니
집에 가고 싶음 말하렴 보내줄게
결코 놀리지는 않아 hey wassup, loser
오 네 상태에 그저 난 click the like it

거기 다쳐
멀리 비켜 다쳐
때로는 용감해서 문제지
외쳐 구해달라 외쳐
아니면 지금부터 너 잘 봐

터져 나오는 Jackpot
누가 뭐라 건 so what
이게 너와 나의 차이라고
터져 나오는 Jackpot
멈출때까지 can`t stop
꼭 깨져봐야 아픈 줄 알지
그래서 니가 거기까지란 거야

뭘 믿고 이러냐 혀를 차
뭘 보고 배웠기에 기가 차
뉴스는 똑같아 나이만 좀 달라
우리가 왜 이런지 몰라

터져 나오는 Jackpot
누가 뭐라 건 so what
이게 너와 나의 차이라고
터져 나오는 Jackpot
멈출때까지 can`t stop
꼭 깨져봐야 아픈 줄 알지

터져 나오는 Jackpot
누가 뭐라 건 so what
이게 너와 나의 차이라고
터져 나오는 Jackpot
멈출때까지 can`t stop
꼭 깨져봐야 아픈 줄 알지
그래서 니가 거기까지란 거야

사람을 내려다 보면 써
밑에 볼 거 없어
아무도 없어
결국 뛰어봤자 넌 벼룩이야
우겨봤자 내 앞에선 얼룩이야

This is a story about a dwarf and giant
But it`s gonna end just like David and Goliath
Keep up with my pace, it you can
Don`t lag Wile E.Coyote
cuz I`m road Runner, fast!

You’re in my way stupid, what are you saying
The insides of your head is so light that you words are like feathers too
In this small, palm-sized place
You search for the Himalayas but I’m different

Hey, you’re gonna get hurt – move, you’re gonna get hurt
Sometimes being too courageous is a problem
Shout out, shout out to ask to save you
If not, from now on, watch closely

The bursting out jackpot – no matter what anyone says – so what
This is the difference between me and you
The bursting out jackpot – till we finish, we can’t stop
You always find out that it hurts after it shatters
That’s what you’re only at that spot

This showmanship that you’ve already learned
The friendship that you’ve already thrown away
Yes, go somewhere and show that off
You learn bad things faster than anyone else, shh!

You struggling stupid – are you okay?
If you wanna go home, tell me, I’ll send you off
I won’t make fun of you in the end – hey wassup loser
At your status, I’ll just click the “like it”

Hey, you’re gonna get hurt – move, you’re gonna get hurt
Sometimes being too courageous is a problem
Shout out, shout out to ask to save you
If not, from now on, watch closely

The bursting out jackpot – no matter what anyone says – so what
This is the difference between me and you
The bursting out jackpot – till we finish, we can’t stop
You always find out that it hurts after it shatters
That’s what you’re only at that spot

What are you basing your actions on? Tut tut
Exactly what did you learn that you’re so full of energy?
The news is the same, but only the age is different
You don’t know why we’re like this

The bursting out jackpot – no matter what anyone says – so what
This is the difference between me and you
The bursting out jackpot – till we finish, we can’t stop
You always find out that it hurts after it shatters

The bursting out jackpot – no matter what anyone says – so what
This is the difference between me and you
The bursting out jackpot – till we finish, we can’t stop
You always find out that it hurts after it shatters
That’s what you’re only at that spot

If you look down on people, it’s bitter
There’s nothing to see below
There’s no one
Even if you jump, you’re just a flea
Even if you demand, you’re just a spot in front of me

This is a story about a dwarf and giant
But it`s gonna end just like David and Goliath
Keep up with my pace, if you can
Don’t lag Wil E.Coyote cuz I’m Road Runner, fast!
