The image was created in the theme of the singer's ID card, which showed her occupation as lyricist and an introduction that reads, "I write even when I laugh even when I cry."

"This album carries the 'now' of Heize," the agency said. "It carries her most autobiographical stories, and will be a chance to see the singer's honest and sincere music."

Heize debuted in 2014 and rose to fame through Mnet's all-female hip-hop competition show, "Unpretty Rapstar 2," in 2015.

She has since flaunted her talents as an R&B singer, releasing hit after hit including "Don't Come Back" (2016), "Don't Know You" (2017) and "We Don't Talk Together" (2019).
