Critical reception[]
During promotions for the album, Monsta X received their first music show win as a group, with the title track "Dramarama" on The Show.[1] The lead single also received critical praise, for both the song and music video. Taylor Glasby of Dazed described them both as "intriguing and alluring", noting the music video's concept of time travel with ambiguous meaning and praising the song's ability to highlight the "individual signatures" of the members of Monsta X.[2]
