Background
In May 2017, Seventeen released the EP Al1 as the first chapter of their "2017 Seventeen Project". Following the release of Al1, Seventeen started the second chapter of the project by releasing "Change Up", a song by the group's respective hip-hop, performance, and vocal team leaders: S.Coups, Hoshi, and Woozi.[4] Three additional songs, "Trauma", "Lilili Yabbay", and "Pinwheel", were released by each of the respective teams as incremental chapters. Teen, Age was then confirmed to be the third and final chapter of the project, comprising the four pre-released songs among others.[5]
Promotion
