☆  On their ARS event, Minho "With our title song called 'Don't Call Me,' we thought how would it be if we could use phone/call to communicate with fans" and "I didn't expect for so many fans to contact us after it's being released. Thank you so much for the much support given to us and it was fun doing it for us too. It's still ongoing so please take lots of interest in it" 

☆ Kibum "It's an old promotion, in the past if they were able to hear the audio that we left, the fans are able to leave their voice messages and leave their own TMI or their music review as well as touching messages as well. While listening to it, we are also thinking of content on how we can return the love again.

 

☆ Minho "We released our highlight medley too and hearing that it is fun that fans checked the lyrics themselves like the dictation on tvN's Amazing Saturday"

☆ Key "It's a hip-hop-based song with impressive strong lyrics. We have never done hysterical lyrics till now so we thought 'It can't be done if we don't have such a transformation' and challenged it."

 

☆ Taemin "You will be able to see a darkened SHINee. You will be able to be more indulged in the song if you focus on the choreography." 

☆ Yunho "The level of difficulty for the choreography is high. I was thinking if that could be done but SHINee was able to do it."

 

☆ Onew "There was the hiatus period during our enlistment and I was really nervous at the thought of preparing for our promotion. We thought a lot about what we want to show and because we worked hard in preparing, do look forward to it a lot."

 

☆ Taemin "I'm greeting as SHINee in a while so please look after us. We worked really hard to create new sides of us for our 7th album" 

 

☆ Minho "As much as it's our 7th album, we've included a lot so please look forward to it" and emphasizes this being a group comeback in a while.

 

☆ Minho “Lee Sooman seongsaengnim cherishes and likes this song a lot so with that we worked on it by paying lots of attention to it as well. BoA sunbaenim was going to do this song too, this was actually a female’s song and we sang it after lowering the key”                       

☆ Minho “We hope you guys can look at the performance and stylings too. The clothes appeared in our MV was also added after Key gave his idea”

 

☆Minho “For the MV as well, each and every editing points were paid much attention to. LSM paid much attention since it’s our comeback in a while, he also gave us advises to go towards a better direction and did the producing well for us too and we are really grateful for that”

 

☆ Key “We weren’t a team that was actively communicating with LSM. He would contact us when we finish a schedule or finish something nowadays. This morning he even sent a message saying ‘It’s being sent after editing the color^^’”

 

☆ Minho laughingly went “LSM would always send Good Good before he says a sentence. It’s like a recent trend word and it makes us think that we are doing well.” 

↳  Yunho “It’s a praise. When I first did my album promotion, he also sent me ‘Good good good’” 

 

☆ Key “LSM watched the bending fingers segment on Knowing Brothers too and he captured that and send it to us saying ‘I watched it well’”

 

☆ Heart Attack, CODE and Don’t Call Me were candidates for their title song this time
