The album is titled −77.82X−78.29 after the coordinates of Antarctica, which is featured on the album cover. During the showcase for the album, member E:U was asked about it; she explained, "All the albums we have released so far convey the 'Everglow universe'. It'll be quite fun putting together these clues about our story. I can't tell you everything yet, but the upcoming stories are equally enjoyable [...]".^[4]
