The collaboration was sparked by a "Gento" dance challenge video posted on the official TikTok by member K, which received over 11.7 million views. They also performed the coupling song "Dropkick" from their 1st album "First Howling: NOW," released on November 15, and showed a refreshing and charming performance. They also demonstrated a wide range of expressive power with a wild and powerful performance in the title song "War Cry." With this award, they have proven their talent and popularity as a unique global rising rookie with the charm of a perfect and sharp dance that inherits the HYBE DNA. They have announced their first solo tour starting in January next year, with performances in Kyoto, Fukuoka, Saitama, Miyagi, Kanagawa, Aichi, Osaka, and Seoul, Korea, showing momentum including overseas performances as a global group.
