I know this song from Ajeng, my tal too (OK, I have three, and many more actually haha becoz I'm Dujun's wifey LOL). This song is good one and also the MV. Even though you don't know the meaning you will know what the song wants exactly after you finish interpreting it by yourself. If you have the knowledge and your experience may influence your interpretation too. This is what we (literature students) call as hermeneutics (interpret works from some levels) or new criticism (used the dictionary to understand the meaning deep). And Ajeng did it well. She interpreted the things or symbols after browsing/googling, and she found the meaning. And after I read hers, it seems like an archetypal (fairy tale-like) one, means some people have the same thought about the same thing (the symbolization of 'white whale'). The characteristic of archetypal is the hero has been through many things to achieve his/her goal. In a fairy tale, the hero usually is a prince or king, but nowadays everyone can be a hero, rite? Thus, the story goes the same.
Do you feel curious with how is the MV? Here, below:

You should be curious with Ajeng's interpretation, rite? This is her analysis of this MV: http://erhyme.tumblr.com/post/26692520321/younha-run-mv-color-version-o-kay-so-i. Read it and you will know what I talk about. If it can't satisfy you, guys, go interpret it by yourself. But Ajeng's interpretation is a-very-good-one for me. ^^
BTW, this is the translation of the song (cr: popgasa) :
RUN
YOUNHA
My breath rises when I stop my steps
Sometimes, it tangles up when I stop my breath
The forgotten sadness rushes over me
Tears well up without a chance for me to hold them back
Time, please pass by a bit quicker
With a hot light, please embrace me
Take me to a dazzling tomorrow
So I can fly further than anyone else
* I am singing about you like this, with a big voice, in front of you
I want to be with you until always
** I want you like this, the one person in the world
I will love you as much as you waited
I spread out my scrunched up shoulders once again
I grasp onto my once scattered heart, once more
When I erase the nervous eyes,
Without time to stop, I will confess to you
Time, please pass by a bit quicker
Take me and fly far away
Take me to the dazzling sky
So I can fly futher than anyone else
* Repeat
** Repeat
Cuz I love u (Now al of my pain)
Cuz I love u (It’s okay because I’m with you)
Take my hand at the end of the dark and cold tunnel
Cast a spell on my broken memories and rise me up
* Repeat
** Repeat
Cuz I love u (It’s okay because I’m with you)
Cuz I love u
*Oh, well, I'm sorry, I used some literature terms. It's because I'm an English Literature students. LOL. Mian, guyss.*
