Appearing on music shows like Mnet's 'M Countdown', KBS2's 'Music Bank', MBC's 'Show! Music Core', and SBS's 'Inkigayo' starting April 4th, MONSTA X demonstrated their explosive live vocals and captivating stage presence, proving their strong impact even after nearly five years since their last full group comeback.
The group delivered a flawless performance, navigating difficult choreography and dynamic stage formations with unwavering stamina and breath control, showcasing the solid musical capabilities honed over a decade. The seamless transitions between vocal and rap lines highlighted their seasoned artistry.

American music magazine Rolling Stone praised the song, noting its potential to appeal to a wide range of generations.
MONSTA X will continue their comeback activities for 'N the Front' through various music shows and digital content.
