On December 16, 2008, Tsai signed with Warner.^[3] On February 19, 2009, Gold Typhoon announced plans to release a greatest hits compilation featuring 27 tracks from Tsai's EMI era, along with three previously unreleased songs: "Hauteur", "Run Run", and "Habitual Betrayal".^[4] On the same day, media reports revealed that Gold Typhoon and Sony had initially planned to jointly release the compilation, but the project was canceled due to copyright and revenue-sharing disputes.^[5]

In its first week of release, the album ranked number five on Taiwan's Chia Chia Records sales chart, and secured number two on both the G-Music and Five Music weekly sales charts.^[6][7][8]

Tencent Entertainment commented that this greatest hits album released by Gold Typhoon is likely the only compilation from Tsai's EMI era. They highlighted the three previously unreleased new songs as the album's standout features, although stylistically they offer little innovation and can even be seen as leftover works from the Gold Typhoon era. Nonetheless, these tracks hold collectible value for fans. The album's release timing, just before Tsai's new album Butterfly (2009), mirrors similar strategies previously used by Universal and Sony, resulting in mixed market reactions. Despite this, Tsai's immense popularity ensured the album received some level of support.^[9]

Hong Kong Economic Times noted that the new songs "Hauteur" and "Run Run" fall within Tsai's signature electronic dance genre but fail to stand out, possibly due to being remakes of older material. In contrast, the other new track, "Habitual Betrayal", incorporates minor key elements, delivering a favorable effect.^[10]
