SEVENTEEN's Woozi participated in writing the lyrics for and composing "Hitori Janai." Since he debuted, Woozi has been directly taking part in the process of producing the group's songs.
The lyrics for "Hitori Janai" sings the courage and vows of the youth who stand on the starting line toward achieving their dreams.

The second Japanese track that will be included in SEVENTEEN's "Hitori Janai" single album is "Run to You." This song is initially sung in the Korean language and was released back in February 2018 as part of "Director's Cut," the special edition of their second full-length album "Teen, Age."
SEVENTEEN's "Run to You" is their first rock-pop song that is reminiscent of a theme song for a Japanese anime. It is about someone who is in love and is attempting to search for the one they love. The lyrics talk about how they will try to reach out to the one they love and how they'll keep trying to look for them.
The third and last track in SEVENTEEN's new Japanese single album is "HOME;RUN." Similar to "Run to You," it is also originally launched as a Korean song in October last year.
In "HOME;RUN," the boy group compares life to a game of baseball, and every ball that comes toward you is a hindrance you will have to deal with. The time that you overcome the problems will make you feel as good as a home run.
