Ready to Love is the title track in SEVENTEEN’s 8th mini album ‘Your Choice’ released on June 18, 2021.
“In the early days of our debut, we used a lot of splashy and honest expressions that were suitable for our age, but now, even if I try to speak honestly, I’m likely to say something refined. “Ready to love” sounds heavy, but it’ll get your heart pounding like a drum in excitement. This is a song about love, so I wanted it to be about the present, not try to make it sound young and innocent or grown up and mature.”
– Woozi [Weverse Magazine Interview]
