About the song, he said:
"This song is not a hip-hop track and it's so fresh to me that I wonder if YG has ever released a song like this. It feels fresh to me too.
If I were to share my personal opinion about it, whenever I listen to this song, I close my eyes and it feels like being in a state of zero gravity in outer space."
He continued to praise the members, saying:
"The skills and unique colors of the members' vocals make me want to focus on even the smallest breath and it makes me focus intensely when listening. I think it's a song that can be described as 'beautiful'."

In light of BAEMON's upcoming return in February, plenty of fans focus on member Ahyeon's return to the group.
About this, Yang replied:
"Ahyeon had to stop training for a few months due to health reasons. As BABYMONSTER's debut had to be pushed beyond this year (2023), they had to debut on November 27th as six members.
It's still uncertain when Ahyeon will join, so I will inform you publicly in due course."
Hearing this, fans partially claimed that Ahyeon will also not be able to join the group's new release in February. Despite this, people are also happy that Yang confirmed that she is still a member of BABYMONSTER and it's not a departure.
In November, ahead of the group's debut, YG initially stated that Ahyeon would leave BAEMON for personal reasons. After the backlash, the company clarified that she will only delay her debut in the group due to health reasons but she will be back after recovery.
