The single was announced February 13, 2024 however the title remained unknown until March 2, the day of their very first performance at Tokyo Dome where they revealed Masterplan and gave a premiere performance.

The song is described as "a sequel to the previously released songs Boom Boom Back and Mainstream, with a beat by music producer Ryosuke "Dr.R" Sakai, with whom they created challenging songs such as Gifted., BF is... and Mainstream. It is a hip-hop tune that forms the basis of BE:FIRST's musicality.[1]
