New Vocal and Arrange of "Rogue Hunters (Assassins)"


The title is a pun on 대한민국 (Republic of Korea). 개 (dog), replacing 대, changes the meaning to loosely mean "Bitch's Republic of Korea."
Another exclusive interpretation of 개한민국 [Gae;HanMeenKook] is that 개 [Gae] could be 改 [개/Gae] which means "to fix". Then the title could loosely mean "Fix up Republic of Korea," which shows yet more intelligent political message which the song of the same title in the album suggests and the leader Shin really tries to accomplish. The possibility of the double-edged remark is prominent.
