History

As opposed to their previous songs, the tracks on the mini-album were not written by Park Jin-young, but by Big Hit Entertainment founder and Park's long-time songwriting partner Bang Si-hyuk, who is famous for composing Baek Ji-young's "총 맞은 것처럼" ("''Like Being Hit By a Bullet''") and 8Eight's "심장이 없어" ("''Without a Heart''"). Although set to be released on January 26, 2010, the mini-album was unexpectedly delayed and instead released 2 days later.

In the week before the song's official release, four teaser videos of each member were released on 2AM's official YouTube channel, each depicting a different season. The only full music video was released on February 20, 2010.
