During an interview with The Korea Herald, Donghae stated that the album was originally planned to be released in winter, but it was then decided to be released in August citing the duo's desire to meet the fans as soon as possible.[3]

Composition

Unlike most Super Junior songs, 'Bout You is primarily influenced by trap, hip-hop, house and R&B.[4]

"'Bout You" the title track of the album is written by both members; the song is categorized as a trap hip-hop song. The lyrics describe a man who fell in love at first sight.[5] Donghae also stated that his friendship with Eunhyuk was the source of inspiration behind the song.[6]

Live performances

The single was performed live for the first time on August 17 with an appearance in Music Bank, with bandmates Ryeowook and Siwon also in the attendance.[7][8]
