Why was it important to BTS to release this song now? Why this song ahead of the album?

J-Hope then spoke up, talking about the difficult times that everyone around the world was going through, and wanting to release a song that addresses that while communicating their own feelings through the song.

Everything is so different now. We kept asking ourselves, ‘How can we share with our fans all the doubts and emotions we’re having through this period?’ The answer was, of course, music!
