However, it is not the first time Troye Sivan has expressed his desire to team up with Jimin. On May 12, 2022, he appeared at iHeart Radio's Ask Anything, where he answered fan's questions enthusiastically. One of the fan queries was whether he would love to work with Jungkook and Jimin, the singer replied in an affirmative tone. As reported by Billboard, he stated:

"I would love that. I really, really, really love writing with other people and that’s something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time, so if they ever want to write … or for me, for us, or whatever. I’m very very down.”

Meanwhile, Troye Sivan previously contributed to the lyrical portion of BTS's Louder Than Bombs, a track of the 2020 album Map of the Soul:7.

Troye Sivan also talked about his association with Magnum to the host Nicky Doll and stated, as reported by media outlet, Attitude:

“With music, it’s easy to get one thing right. You can write a lyric that says how you feel. Maybe you come up with some sort of production on a track that says how you feel. When you get all these things right, the thing that you achieve is a mood and a feeling."

Sivan continued:

"The stars really have to align. That’s constantly what I’m striving to create. So, it was a fun challenge to try and achieve these three different moods.”
