Overview

Rokkugo, (로꾸거) is "gokkuro" (거꾸로) spelled backwards, a term meaning "backwards" or "opposite." The single is promoted as a trot single, although heavy modern K-pop influences can be heard in each track, such as rap and stylized modern K-pop rhythms. The music video features fellow label mate Isak as a comedic rabbit who was playing Whack A Mole with the members as the targets. Although trot music are usually more accepted by the older audience because of its older style of K-pop, Super Junior-T's "Rokuko" has been well-accepted by young audiences as each track in the single are bending more towards a new style of trot to attract the attention of the young audience, hoping to make traditional trot music more accepting in mainstream music.

Three more EPs were released after the single was released in Taiwan. A music video and making video of "Rokkugo" is included in the package.
