Jungkook excitedly shared that the track is going to be “great” and asked fans to look forward to it. He added that the song will show new colors and musicality he hasn’t shown fans before. Talking about the process of recording the song, Jungkook said that he listened to the demo while in a meeting with Bang Si Hyuk and immediately wanted to work on it.

While reading the comments, when Jungkook saw a fan saying that July 14 is their father’s birthday, he replied that then he should give them a shoutout from “the stage.” Though he mentioned it on the passing, fans believe it was another spoiler, though given unintentionally.

Later in the livestream, Jungkook was eager to give some more spoilers about the song but deflected, joking that the HYBE employees monitoring the livestream wouldn’t be able to handle it!
🐰 should i just say a spoiler about the song? should I spoil it?
🐰 but then the people monitoring from the company would start getting nervous
🐰 hmm should i spoil or not.. hybe can you take it??? should I spoil?— Sel⁷ (@BTStranslation_) June 29, 2023
