SUGA’s collaboration song with IU, titled People Pt 2, was already released on April 7 as the pre-release track from the album. The song depicted the vulnerability of a person who is having a hard time letting go of their love. With People Pt. 2, Suga poses questions about the past, present, and future. He also talks about people's unconditional love, greed, selfishness and selflessness.
The rapper and IU previously collaborated on the song Eight, which had the theme of overcoming obstacles. The song was a part of IU's coming-of-age series, which also featured songs like Twenty-Three and Palette. It was released on May 6, 2020. The song's title was influenced by the K-pop idol's age in Korea at the time, which was 28.
