Story of “Truth”

“Truth” is a song by Twice written by one of the members of Dsign Music, Choi Jin-suk. He was not only in charge as the songwriter but also as the arranger for “Truth.” Consisting of various genres, “Truth” is a combination of pop dance, punk, and ballad. Contrary to the title “Truth,” the lyrics of this song describe a situation of a woman who is pretending she is okay and acts cool every time she is around the man she likes. In fact, she is feeling flustered and nervous inside. The “truth” is that she wants to say to him that she really likes him a lot and always wants to be with him. She is hesitant about whether she should confess her feelings and tell the “truth” or not. Besides Choi Jin-suk, other creative and amazing people also took part in this song including Anne Judith Wik, Nermin Harambašić, Tatiauna “Tatu” Matthews, and Xin Xin Gao. The 5 of them made the music for “Truth.”
