Entertainment held a press conference, in which all the members were present except Lay, who was in China focusing on his new upcoming film. Although he could not be there to attend the press conference, he later apologized through a video call, stating "I'm really sorry. I really wanted to see everybody. I miss the members, too. We will show a perfect image for this comeback. Please anticipate it."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20150330000872 )〕 Suho also stated that he had never thought about the sales numbers after the release of the album, and just wanted to bring new music to fans of the band.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.allkpop.com/article/2015/03/suho-confirms-exos-comeback-title-track-to-be-call-me-baby )〕 He said that the only thing in the members' mind whilst making the album was for the listeners to enjoy it.
