2. “P.O.P (Piece of Peace)”
“Because I produced this myself, I have a lot of affection for this song. Although the topic is heavy, I wanted to give people strength. I hope that a lot of people will be able to find peace through my music.”
3. “Daydream”
“J-Hope is a public figure. As life goes on, there are things I have to endure. I can accommodate them to some point, but as a human there are times that I feel greedy. I talked about my shadow.”
4. “Base Line”
“I made this song while thinking about what my base line is. I wanted to talk about my essence. To sum it up, it’s the instructions to J-Hope. If there’s a chance, I’d like to perform this song live.”
5. “HANGSANG [Always] (ft. Supreme Boi)”
“This song is about my pride in BTS. I’ve been with the members for a long time. Now, we’re crossing all over the world together. Going forward, I want to let more people hear our music.”
6. “Airplane”
“While looking at the night sky in an airplane I gained inspiration for this song. When I was younger, it was my dream to ride a plane. But, I found myself sitting in the place I liked the most. Since I could write this song from the perspective of someone’s who has succeeded, I felt proud.”
7. “Blue Side (Outro)”
“This is a track that neatly ends the mixtape. I like the blue sky and breeze so I tried to melt them [into the song]. When I listen to this song, good memories come back to me. This song is about wishing to go back to when I didn’t know anything.”
