This single was also the debut of the "Second Generation" Morning Musume members Mari Yaguchi, Kei Yasuda and Sayaka Ichii, as well as the group's first single to be released under Zetima and distributed through Sony Music Japan's sub label Epic Records, as One Up Music had ended its distribution deal with Warner Music Japan and adopted its current name after the release of the group's previous single "Morning Coffee".
