    Background and release

    Together with Yoon Jong-shin and his artist Parc Jae-jung, Henry introduced Snowball Project – a show which "depicts the musical journey" of Parc Jae-jung and NCT's Mark through a special Naver V app video on June 28, 2017. This resulted in a collaboration between the two artists, titled "Lemonade Love", which was eventually released on July 21 as a digital single through SM Entertainment's STATION season 2.[3][4] Both Henry and Yoon Jong-shin eventually continued the project with the plan to rearrange their other label's composition into new digital singles, with Henry recruiting Red Velvet and Yoon Jong-shin recruiting PERC%NT, Jang Jane and Giant Pink for the project. Henry eventually rearranged "Rebirth" for the girl group, while Yoon Jong-shin chose the group's 2015 hit single "Dumb Dumb" to rework. The group's rendition was eventually released as a single through SM Station on August 18, 2017, coinciding with the release of Mystic's rendition to "Dumb Dumb".[5][6]
