Netizens commented:
- Wow, it was really so amazing! Cool to see the one idol playing the cello and I loved Taehyun and Kai getting to show their vocals.
- This was a really good collab!!! TXT now has this emo image for me since 0x1=lovesong. I think the song was a good fit for their vocals! The piano and cello and rap were beautiful! Yujin's dance break was really graceful and dainty too! The choreo was so pretty, he did so many turns like a ballerino.
