Description[]
Now, LOOΠΔ takes another step with the introduction of Yves to start building its last four-member squad.
Yves asks a question in Eden. “Is it really a bad thing to disobey God?” If someone has already decided our fate, wouldn’t it be a better life to stand up and against that fate?
Even if it’s not something grand such as God or fate, Yves sings that she will not surrender herself to any walls or glass ceilings she may have to face.[1]

Album Benefits[]
- Each album contained a burgundy attendance card. If the owner of the album attended a Yves fan-sign they would have their card stamped. If they managed to get all twelve attendance cards stamped, one for each member of LOONA, then they would get the opportunity to meet all twelve members of LOONA at LOONAbirth, have their picture taken with one of the girls, and have a mini private concert.
