Joohoney co-wrote the lyrics to all the tracks in the album and also took point in producing and composing the tracks.
In a recent interview, Joohoney said that writing music is something he does routinely. He said it allows him to express himself differently from when he is working in a team with his MONSTA X members. He said making his music helps him express the styles and colors of music.
He said that when he is working solo, he gets to explore different facets of music but when he is working with his members, he focuses on teamwork a lot and how he can make the team stronger.
