He said, "It's a continuing album from our previous one... The basic concept is continuing the storyline.
"The style of the song is very new to us so it's a nice challenge.
"For this album, we just want to do different types of music. So, I think it's a good album."
Ni-ki went on to say that ENHYPEN is really thankful to their solid fans for supporting them these past four years.
"There were a lot of goals that we have set for the previous years. Thank you so much for Engenes for allowing us to do those goals.
"And also, we have a lot of goals set for the next year. We'll do our best ro accomplish them one by one and step by step."

Ni-Ki also happily shared that a lot of concerts are in store for Engenes next year.
One of which is their much-anticipated participation in Coachella music festival in April.
Ni-Ki added, "And we have a lot of stages being prepared for next coming years as well. I hope you can look forward to it."
Echoing Ni-Ki's sentiments, Jungwon said: "For the four years, I never actually imagined coming this far, achieving these achievements without our Engenes.
"And also because [of] our hardworking members, we were able to make a great team as we are now.
