On the 26th, STARSHIP Entertainment released Kihyun's cover video titled 'MONBEBE HBD Special ClipㅣKIHYUN 'Horse Tail' COVER' through MONSTA X's official fan club 'MONBEBE' to commemorate its 9th anniversary. The released video was filmed last August before his military enlistment. He presented a special video covering Yoon Jong-shin × Jung Jun-il's 'Words' to coincide with MONBEBE's 9th anniversary, moving many. To deliver a gift to fans waiting for his return, the monochrome video begins with the sound of rain, and Kihyun's silhouette appears. His expressions as he immerses himself in the song and his calm, delicate singing voice touch the listeners' sensibilities, with rising emotions and deepening tones as the song progresses.

Before his military enlistment, Kihyun interacted with K-POP fans worldwide through cover songs that showcased his unique vocal color.

Ben McKee, who plays bass for the group, liked the video through his channel, and drummer Daniel Platzman left a comment saying 'Nice!!!' on the video. Additionally, after 'Little Bit Of Love' was released, the original artist Tom Grennan shared the video on his X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram channels, praising Kihyun's cover with 'Amazing' on MONSTA X's Instagram.
