Last year, the MOMOLAND was on the verge of making their first comeback in a year with the song “Yummy Yummy Love” featuring Dominican singer Natti Natasha. Nayun toldย Soompi, “All the members put a lot of thought into how to show a new and transformed image, so the time went by quickly. These promotions will show how MOMOLAND has grown and changed, so please look forward to it.” About Natasha, Hyebin said, “Collaborating with Natti Natasha was a precious experience that I will never forget. She participated in not only the song recording, but also the music video. She was really part of the whole process. Thanks to her, we heard that our album was highly anticipated in Mexico and South America even before it was released. We’re grateful to Natti Natasha and her fans all over the world.”
