In his own words, Rolling Stone’s writer M. Johnston described this album as,
"On his heady second solo album, RM interrogates the relationship between his world-conquering presented self and the "ordinary young man named Kim Namjoon" that he might've been. His lyrical ride is made even more mind-expanding by the music laid down by the star and his collaborators.”
It is the only K-pop album selected from the list of over 60 global music albums.
Earlier when it came out, the album received a 5-star rating from the magazine and firm, New Musical Express (NME).
