“I filled this album with reinterpretations of songs I’ve always loved.
When I decided to prepare these songs for festival stages, my biggest wish was simply that many people would enjoy them.”

Prior to the official announcement, Yujeong personally shared news of her album in the first episode of her new mockumentary series, Nam Yujeong Wants to Be in Love, which premiered on her official YouTube channel on August 5.
The five-part video series follows a lighthearted, fake-documentary format built around the theme of love songs.
It documents the journey of “human Nam Yujeong” as she searches for true love while preparing her solo music.
