When Yoo Hee Yeol asked how Nell had come to work with RM, Kim Jong Wan replied, “He’s liked our music since a long time ago. He told us that he’d written a song and that while he was working on it, he had thought about Nell. I listened to it three or four times in a row. The song was really great, and I felt like I understood the feelings that went into its writing. So I said of course, let’s work together.”
