Background and release

Wonho initially announced an upcoming EP in 2020 and performed a song "Flash" at his online concert in September 2020.[1] The title and the release date were confirmed in February 2021.[2] It is the continuation of the series started by his first EP, Love Synonym Pt.1: Right for Me (2020).[3]

A music video for "Lose" was released on the same day as the EP. It was also released in two language versions; English and Korean. For the song "Ain't About You", Wonho collaborated with singer-songwriter Kiiara.[4] For the song "Weneed", Wonho released a special video through his personal YouTube channel on his birthday; the song is named in reference to Wonho's fanbase "Wenee".[5]

Ruby C of NME gave the EP four stars, saying that it "seems to have found a well-balanced equilibrium in both sound and vibe".[6] P. Claire Dodson described the EP for Teen Vogue as "a delightful, concise EP, especially on tracks like "Weneed", a pretty soft-pop hit with a power-pop chorus that highlights [Wonho's] smooth vocals".[7]
