In this paper, I argue that the intriguing but inscrutable correlation between two spins in EPR(Einstein-Podolski-Rosen) experiment could be explained. One in general explains correlation between two distinct events in terms of causality. But any type of causal explanation is not available in EPR experiment. I argue that the correlation in EPR experiment could be explained if we not only exploit the concept of superposition that is the kernel of the relational holism but also articulate equilibrium explanation. First, I expound how the correlation in EPR experiment cannot be explained in terms of causality, and introduce several received explanation for correlation. Second, I compare two different metaphysical theories, particularism and relational holism. I consider superposition for the relational holism in order to figure out correlation in EPR experiment. Third, I show that the superposition factor renders (strong) locality and the prediction of quantum mechanics (the correlation of EPR experiment) logically consistent and also meets the problem of casual symmetry due to the logical consistency. Fourth, I argue that the superposition is not inert as a physical factor by explicating the relation among the superposition, supervenient relation, and causal background contexts in terms of the probabilistic theory of causation. Finally, I show how the superposition factor has an explanatory significance for the correlation in EPR experiment by articulating and exploiting equilibrium explanation that is distinct from traditional causal explanation.
