Alongside the single, Hearts2Hearts will appear at SMTOWN LIVE on February 14 at Rajamangala National Stadium in Bangkok. The group will also hold their first fan meeting in Seoul on February 21–22, followed by North American showcases in New York at Brooklyn Paramount on March 19 and Los Angeles at The Wiltern on March 22 (local time), and a fan meeting in Jakarta on March 28.
