The album was launched in Taiwan only. Jeric's music is noted for displaying a wide variety of styles and influences, and contains elements of many different musical genres. As a child, he was highly influenced by artists such as Emil Chau (Chinese:周華健) and Jay Chou (Chinese:周杰倫) and would often practice singing to these artists songs.
