The core keywords for this fan meeting are freshness, summer, and coolness. While Ong Seong-wu has previously explored musical experimentation through grand performances utilizing band sounds, he has decided to focus on his intrinsic strengths this time. Regarding the concept of this stage, he stated, "I decided on these songs because I felt that showing an idol-like, refreshing, and breezy side of myself could be my greatest strength on stage."

The movement in the practice room was intense. In the process of coordinating choreography formations and adjusting the flow of the songs, Ong Seong-wu faced physical limits. "Dancing continuously like this after such a long time made me realize how much training is truly required," he shared candidly. "I was so exhausted that I was stumbling when I got home after practice." However, even amidst this exhaustion, the process of the stage coming to life became a new source of motivation for him.
