They had previously performed the song at the Neo City – The Link tour.[20]

Artistry

Haechan stated that his mother greatly influenced his music taste by introducing him to songs such as "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson, whom he has cited in multiple interviews as one of his role models and the reason he wanted to pursue a singing career.[21][22][11] Haechan also named labelmate Taemin of Shinee as a major influence, crediting his group's debut single "Replay" with inspiring him to become an idol and audition for SM Entertainment.[1][23] The first album Haechan ever purchased was Shinee's Romeo (2009).[24]

Music critic Kim Young-dae described Haechan's voice as the MSG in NCT 127's discography as it "connects all the different flavors and has a powerful impact on the adlibs".[25] Changuk of Drippin cited Haechan as his role model.[26]
