Furthermore, Garbage Time has gained recognition by reaching the quarterfinals of Naver’s open webtoon contest in 2017. Also, it further received the esteemed “Today’s Webtoon” award from the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in 2023.

As to their thoughts about the collaboration, BOYNEXTDOOR expressed that they’d like the song to convey the message of living in the present moment without regrets. 

On top of that, the members also shared that they also feel familiar with the webtoon characters. As they think that they’re similar in working hard together to achieve their goals.
