The world came to a halt when this album dropped. Soloists everywhere started to quiver with the fear of losing their careers. Seulgi started kissing your sister instead of your brother, Yena stopped smiling, Chungha's bicycle lost its tires, Eunbi started glitching, Nayeon forgot the alphabets and IU decided that it wasn't a good day after all.
