The song was released along with the rest of the album's tracks on August 2, 2011 and has topped online charts hours after its release. The song was written by Yoo Young-jin, which was also the writer of their previous lead singles "Twins (Knock Out)", "Don't Don", "Sorry, Sorry" and "Bonamana". SM Entertainment describes the song as:
- The title song, ‘Mr. Simple’, is a ‘SJ FUNKY’ song created solely for Super Junior and it can be considered as the final version of ‘SJ FUNKY’ following ‘SORRY, SORRY’ and ‘BONAMANA’ that swept the world. The lyric describes the reality where modern people living in a complicated world failing to achieve what they intended to and losing their love and dreams without the breadth of mind in a simple way with humorous and metaphorical words, meaning “There is no need for taking take everything very seriously. Simple and easy way can rather be a better choice for finding oneself” like the title, ‘Mr. Simple.’
