“Ever since our debut, we've always been making our own music, right?” said frontman Bang Chan from the stage of the Prudential Center in Newark in 2022. “We think that's really important because if we're going to be onstage, if we're going to be performing, we're going to be singing and dancing, so we should at least be singing and dancing to our own songs!”

Puth, whose hits include “See You Again,” “How Long,” “We Don't Talk Anymore,” “Marvin Gaye,” “Attention,” “One Call Away,” “Light Switch” and more, has collaborated with K-pop artists in the past.

His hit “Left and Right” featured Jung Kook of BTS, and Puth appeared on the Jvke single “Angel Pt. 2,” which also featured BTS' Jimin.
