Background


TXT began 2021 by releasing their first Japanese studio album Still Dreaming on January 20, marking an end to The Dream Chapter series.[6] Later, in May 2021 they began The Chaos Chapter with the release of their second Korean studio album named The Chaos Chapter: Freeze and its repackage album The Chaos Chapter: Fight or Escape on May 31 and August 17 respectively.[7][8] On September 6, 2021, Big Hit Music announced that TXT would be releasing their first Japanese extended play on November 10, 2021.[9] Originally, the Japanese featuring artist for "0x1=Lovesong" was undisclosed. Beginning October 22, Universal Music Japan teased the reveal with a set of clues via Twitter.[10] The artist was revealed five days later as Ikuta Lilas, also known as Ikura, the main vocalist for Japanese musical duo Yoasobi.[11]

On September 20, the also-undisclosed Japanese original song was revealed to be "Ito", written by Japanese pop-rap male vocal quartet Greeeen.[12] The song revolves around the themes of attachment, like two people who are each one half of a thread meeting to make one thread. It comes from the feelings you get from forming a deep relationship with someone.[13] Ito is also featured as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo's television drama, Spiral Labyrinth – DNA Forensic Investigation (らせんの迷宮～DNA科学捜査, Rasen no Meikyū – DNA Kagaku Sōsa) which began airing on October 15, 2021.[12]

In September, it was announced that TXT would appear in the December 2021 edition of Numéro Tokyo, slated for release on October 28.[14] On October 26, two days prior to the release, the front covers were revealed with a snippet about their interview.[15] The group also appeared on the front cover of "ar"'s December 2021 issue, released on November 12. This will be the first time that a male overseas artist has featured on the front cover.[16]

On November 3, 2021, following the TV-sized release for Spiral Labyrinth, "Ito" was pre-released as a digital single available on streaming platforms worldwide.[17]
