On filming the live clip:
"I filmed the clip with a Toy Poodle named Pona. She was very cute and well-behaved. The filming went smoothly, and the resulting clip captures the lyrics in visual form. It features scenes like waking up early, thinking of someone, and riding a bicycle—it perfectly translates the imagery from the lyrics into the video."
"I listened to this song a lot while driving in Korea after the mixing was finished. It’s a song perfect for sunny days, traveling, or just relaxing on an ordinary day. I hope it brightens up your morning or afternoon."
