Even though all albums were recorded together, this is the one that Grace can say she honestly loved the experience of the album itself. Even though it was an album about loss and separation and loving oneself is the beginning of true love, Grace used the album as therapy. While she didn't participate in the writing of the previous album, this time she flexed her skills in writing heartbreak with FAKE LOVE, Paradise and then enjoyed the absolute joy of So What.
FAKE LOVE was a different song for Grace to dance to, most of the moves had a sexual play behind them. At the first dance practice, the boys weren't sure if they could do it with Grace but after watching her dance the moves with their background dancers, they felt more comfortable. After all, it was a reflection of Grace's character: the temptation and seductress behind it all.
If Grace had to pinpoint one favourite song, it would have to be So What - singing that on tour brought her so much happiness that its often her fancams of her during that song that bring the most views.
It was during this period as well that Hoseok and Taehyung started to have some input in Grace's costumes and outfits - the FAKE LOVE outfit was their decision. Sexy, powerful, completely like a woman. And it started a trend afterwards that they would help in most of the wardrobe decisions for Grace as they got it spot on the first time.
