Dohyun Yoon said he wanted to release a favorite song that could be sung at karaoke. He explained, "Because there are a lot of old songs, I thought it would be a good idea to make a song that can be sung as a newer song. So I did variations in the second half and made the pitch higher. That's what makes singing fun."
Yoon Do-hyun, who announced his complete recovery through his SNS account last August, said, "I felt a sense of liberation. I had finally escaped. From cancer. First of all, I wanted to have fun. I felt like I wanted to let go (of management). I also wanted to eat ramen and makgeolli. “I felt like I wanted to have a drink. I ate it and it was so sweet,” he said.

Announcer Kang Ji-young asked Yoon Do-hyun, who was diagnosed with cancer during a health checkup in 2021 and did not reveal the news of his cancer struggle to those around him, “Aren’t you lonely?” Yoon Do-hyun said, "I was lonely. I couldn't tell my parents and I couldn't tell my fans. I decided on my own. Let's overcome it alone. So I was lonely, but the members around me were a great help and there were many people who supported me, so I gained a lot of strength thanks to them. “I paid it,” he said.
Yoon Do-hyun, who was active despite his illness, replied, "There were a lot of things I tried to forget. The more I worked, the more energy I gained, so I think I was able to manage it harder."

Yoon Do-hyun said, "Because playing is continuous and difficult, I can't help but fall into a trance when listening to metal music. I can't think about anything else. It was just freedom itself. That's why I'm preparing a metal album. I'm taking out everything I have inside me. “I want to show diversity. There are so many different types of metal, so I’m trying to create metal that YB can do. There’s no energy better than metal,” he said.
