LOONA already gathered support for championing the LGBT+ community before they even debuted, after revealing the music video for Heart Attack. In the video, we are introduced to the group's 10th member Chuu and see her try to persue the group's 9th member Yves. The song has seen great success as well as praise from the LGBT+ community, leading to Heart Attack being played at Seoul Pride.

LOONA's new album [X X] is due to be released February 20th. However, it is available to be pre-ordered now, with four different versions available.
