Background and release[edit]

The song was used as the ending theme song of the 1999 season of the NTV cultural documentary series Do You Really Know About It?! (知ってるつもり?!, Shitteru Tsumori?!). The B-side, "Taiyō no Kisetsu", was used by Japan Post for its commercials. Both songs were co-written by Oginome, which was a first in her singles discography.
