“When I wrote the song, I imagined a scene like this: A lady wants to see the stars in the night sky and takes her lover by the hand and leads him out of a rooftop room. When they look up the sky, the moon is shining, but not a single star,” J-Don said during a V Live broadcast aired Monday.

“It’s like the reality people face these days. They want to hold onto love, but life is hard,” he continued.

The singer, whose real name is Lee Seung-hyub, then answered questions from fans.

“Did I ever get inspired by fans? Yes, of course. I always think of fans when writing lyrics,” he said.

“I want to write a song dedicated to fans someday, but it is hard because it is not just a random song, but something that both our bandmates and fans would cherish,” he added.
