Background

One of the group's members, Joshua, said the title is a continuation of the theme of their previous EP, You Make My Day, in that "You made my darkness into dawn. [...] The sun comes in to make the night a little brighter and it progresses into day, right? That's why we tried to compare the flow of emotions to the sun."[1]

Music

Tamar Herman of Billboard described "Home" as "sentimental future bass",[1] while in the publication's prior list of the "10 Most Anticipated K-pop Albums of 2019", Jeff Benjamin described the first track released from the EP, "Getting Closer", as "dark hip-hop".[2]
