Background and release

In March, Monsta X announced the upcoming release of the EP, with the promotional image of Hyungwon holding a camera and staring at something, and a teaser of the seven logos.
The EP was released with a total of four different versions.

Critical reception

"Jealousy" was praised for its fresh sound as "a poppy dance track swelling with obnoxious synths and their favorite low brasses". Taylor Glasby of Dazed said the song returned to more of Monsta X's earlier style of "heavy EDM and trap singles" than their last single "Dramarama".

As of 2022, the album has sold 195,762 copies in South Korea. The album charted at number 2 on the weekly Gaon Album Chart, and charted at number 28 overall in 2018.
"Jealousy" had one music show win on The Show on April 17.
