The official character 'miniteen', expressing SEVENTEEN's individuality, was unexpectedly revealed. Over two days, on the 28th and 29th, SEVENTEEN published animation videos and illustrations featuring 'miniteen' on their official YouTube channel and social media. They recreated scenes from their unique content 'GOING SEVENTEEN', Weverse Live 'IN THE SOOP SEVENTEEN edition', 'Nanatsu Tour with SEVENTEEN', and 'SEVENTEEN PROJECT: Debut Big Plan' in animation and illustrations.

From the scene before their debut, sitting by the seaside, solidifying their initial resolve, to the members joyfully welcoming Seungkwan back after work, and the scene of Joshua nervously holding a bowling ball while everyone cheers him on, these moments were revived through the characters. Their agency, Pledis Entertainment, stated, 'Through this video and illustration, we wanted to show SEVENTEEN's positive attitude and the relationships among the members included in 'SPILL THE FEELS'. We hope for high expectations for their new album, which contains relatable stories.'
