Background

Produce 101 is a South Korean survival show that aired on Mnet from January to April in 2016 where 101 female trainees from various entertainment companies competed to debut in an 11-member girl group which would promote for a year under YMC Entertainment.

On the 8th episode, the remaining trainees were given 5 new songs from 5 different producers, each a different genre. They were tasked to perform these songs live in front of an audience of 3000.[2] The EDM song "24 Hours" was produced by DJ KOO and Maximite (Also the producers of "Pick Me"). The girl crush pop song "Fingertips" was produced by Ryan Jhun, the hip hop song "Don't Matter" was produced by San E, the trap pop song "Yum-Yum" was produced by iDR, and the girlish pop song "In the Same Place" was produced by B1A4's Jin-young, who also produced one of the songs in the finale "When the Cherry Blossoms Fade" which was eventually included in the show's product girl group, I.O.I's debut album Chrysalis.[3]
