"Fake & True" is a song recorded by South Korean girl group Twice. It was released by Warner Music Japan on October 18, 2019, as a digital single from their second Japanese studio album &Twice.
"Fake & True" was pre-released as a digital single on October 18, 2019, along with its accompanying music video, and was officially released with the album &Twice on November 19.[1][2] It was first performed during Twicelights World Tour's Japanese leg, which began on October 23 in Sapporo. The song was also performed on a 2-hour special episode of Music Station on November 22.[3][4]
"Fake & True" was composed by Kass with lyrics written by Jam9.[5] It was described as a retro-feeling synth-pop song that incorporates vibrant brass and deep-house elements and it's "meant to focus on the idea of being truthful to oneself in the pursuit of success and goals, rather than accepting the falsity of settling".[1]
On October 18, 2019, the song's music video was released on YouTube. It was directed by production team Vikings League (Vishop).[6]
The music video focused on the group's glamour and fashion sense, with the girls wearing high fashion outfits throughout the video.[7] Visual effects of mirrors, virtual reality goggles, masks, glitchy realities, cameras, and video screens, as well as a prominent lie detector were used throughout the music video to make the viewer question what is "Fake & True". To reinforce the themes, classical art and the biblical story of Adam and Eve also appeared.[1]
A new version of the "Fake & True" music video called "The Truth Game" was released on February 5, 2020, that is only available on the DVD of the &Twice repackage album.[8][9] It is a re-edited version of the original video, featuring more close up shots and lie detector scenes and fewer clips of the choreography.
