Concept

The teaser images were released on MBLAQ's official website as well as J. Tune Camp's Facebook and Twitter. It showed the five members presenting themselves in black outfits from suits to knitted sweaters. As they did not stare into the camera directly, they exuded different kinds of emotions to match the winter atmosphere.[7][8]
