Background
editBongjeingan is a supergroup formed by members of Parasol, Hyukoh and Jang Kiha & The Faces. Immediately after their formation, they performed at various festivals.[2] They interviewed that while making the album, they sought freedom rather than the way it was set, and Chiyoonhae said the recording process of the album as "First, we hold the instrument, sit down, and jam, and the result comes out. Whether it's wrong or not, let's think that the three of us are trying to match the Lego pieces"[3] The album was recorded in Gapyeong County.[4]
Critical reception
editJeong Imyong of Visla Magazine described the album as "40 minutes of drive with ever-changing."[5] Yoo Seongeun of Music Y reviewed "Monster-like music that creates the flow of consciousness itself into popular style rock by adding a strong desire to create creativity, a high degree of understanding of genres, and a high degree of completion."[6]
