From (2018)ATEEZ

Marking their 7th debut anniversary, ATEEZ have released a special track that etches the origins of the group.
Originally a self-produced number from their trainee days, it was newly recorded with all eight vocalists in October 2025.
Crafted by leader Hongjoong and the production team, the song is a comfortable mid-tempo pop tune whose fresh vocals and simple accompaniment resonate deeply.
An EDM remix is included as well, and the way it visualizes the group’s course—balancing the original’s nostalgia with club-ready euphoria—is irresistible.
It’s a treasure of an anniversary track that rewrites their story in sound from their 2018 voyage to today.
Give it a listen when you want to keep moving forward without forgetting your roots!

The music video weaves in footage from their February 2025 Seoul concert, “ONEUS 2ND WORLD TOUR ‘La Dolce Vita’ Final in Seoul,” creating a structure that looks back on memories with fans.
Featuring vocals from Seoho recorded before his enlistment, the song reaffirms the bond between the group and their fandom.
