The theme of this song is "Shi Yue Hao (South Korea Ferry) Ship Wreck", f(x)'s Red Light is also about that ship, the release date of the song is July 7th. The incident occured on 20140416 which is march 17th on the lunar calendar. On the album cover, Yeri's face is blurred because she's the same age with the victims of the incident, in the MV, Yeri is lying down on the boat and ended up drowned. There are scenes of water in the MV, every member had an escaping action, like Joy climbing ladder, Seulgi opening a window and water going into Irene's room, and also Wendy crawling under a table. On some parts, Seulgi keep on peaking out at the keyhole, it's because she can't get out from her room and she's watching the ship sunken slowly through it. And finally, on the album cover, everyone is wearing a hood and holding a candle : they're commemorating the incident. At the end, when the words "red velvet" came out in red, it means death.
