About the Song

“악몽 (Ticky Tocky)” is a dark, sophisticated hip-hop track by SUPER JUNIOR that explores the psychological depths of a love that feels like an inescapable loop. Released in 2020 as part of the repackage album TIMELESS – The 9th Repackage Album under SM Entertainment, the song frames obsession as a relentless nightmare. Produced by the urban sound master DEEZ with lyrics by Hwang Yu-bin, the track uses a rhythmic, hypnotic drive to mirror a mind trapped in a suffocating obsession. The repetitive “Ticky Tocky” hook serves as a haunting metaphor for time running out, portraying a high-tension romance where desire and fear are inextricably intertwined.
