The release of "GOING" magazine is part of the group's project, titled "Going Seventeen 2020." Mingyu has been revealed to be the brain behind the idea of publishing their own magazine. It was also the SEVENTEEN member who designed the back cover of the magazine and took charge as the group's photographer.
SEVENTEEN revealed that they would be donating a part of the proceeds from the "GOING" magazine. Fans can preorder the publication on Weverse Shop from February 15 to February 21.

Due to its success, the group decided to produce brand-new episodes starting March 3. Jeonghan, in an interview, stated that all SEVENTEEN members did a good job in preparing for the contents they wanted to try and show to their fans. S.Coups, then, revealed that they would work harder to film this year.
Dino, for his part, shared that he admires how SEVENTEEN was able to give shape to their own ideas. He added that working on "Going SEVENTEEN" became more fun because their ideas were being reflected in the show.
