Each individual member released a single album up until the group's official debut. A new member was introduced each month. Prior to debuting, the members also promoted in sub-units, each with their own defined concept.

A week later, on August 15, the tracklist for the album was released and the album was scheduled for August 20. The album was released as [+ +] and the title track chosen for the mini was "Hi High". The mini was positively received, selling over 50,000 copies, the second-best-selling album by a debuting girl group that year, and debuting at #2 on the Gaon Album Chart.
On the 25th of November, 2022, member Chuu was removed.

Singing in the rain
LOOΠΔ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
점점 더 깊어지는 밤의 노래는
나도 멈출 수 없어 out of control
어디부터가 시작인지 모른대도
밤을 물들여 yeah
소리를 따라 따라 달려가는 너와 나 (뒤따라가)
비에 젖어 젖어 가는 공기에 (짙어져 가)
Hey 짙어져 가 너와 나의 모든 게 다
한 낮의 태양을 삼켜 버린 죄로
지금 난 여기 뜨거운 채로
너와 단 둘이 남겨진 이 밤에 (울리는)
Singing in the rain
Singing in the rain
Singing in the rain
손 댈 수 없이 위험했던 내게
순식간 날 휘감은 건 너의 blue
이 밤의 끝까지 나와 함께 있어줘
더 더욱 깊이
Oh yeah 오늘은 우리 둘 비밀을 만들어
빗소리에 섞여 퍼지는 love song
더 보여줘 your light alright
내 안에 있어줘 all night
마지막 순간까지 넌 내 곁에만 있어줘
하늘의 별을 다 삼켜버린 죄로
넌 푸르게 번져간 채로
너와 내가 이 밤 위에 서 있어
그리고 지금 내리는 이 노래
Singing in the rain
Singing in the rain (그리고 지금 내리는 이 노래)
Singing in the rain
Singing in, singing in the rain oh oh yeah
Singing in the rain, yeah yeah
Singing in the rain
Singing in the rain
Singing in the rain
Hey boy, I've been thinking about us
Got me singing in the rain
Ooh ooh ah, singing in the rain
소리를 따라 따라 달려가는 너와 나 (뒤따라가)
깊이 깊이 깊어져 가는 비밀 (빠져들어)
비에 젖어 젖어 가는 공기에 (물들어가)
Hey 물들어가 우리 안의 태양이 now
한 낮의 태양을 삼켜 버린 죄로
지금 난 여기 뜨거운 채로
너와 단 둘이 남겨진 이 밤에 (울리는)

In "Singing in the rain," LOOΠΔ sings about love that is out of control, like the rain that falls relentlessly. They cannot stop the deepening feelings they have for each other as they get caught up in the night's song. They run after the sound, delving deeper into their secrets and getting lost in each other. Despite not knowing where it all began, they continue to soak in the night's darkness, and their secrets get thicker with the falling rain.
The lyrics describe two people who share a dangerous love, as if they've committed a crime by swallowing the sun and swallowing the stars, yet they are unapologetically singing in the rain. They are caught up in their love like a whirlwind, and they want to be together until the end of time. The rain signifies moments of emotional release and cleansing, and the two protagonists seem to be happy singing in it, together.

No stop cuz this is the most perfect song I have ever heard in kpop
Most people try to "do" a concept like how itzy does a mafia concept and how superm does a futuristic concept (not to belittle them or anything)
This song does a water/rain concept but not only did they do the concept but they "defined" the concept. Other groups it's like "oh that song reminds me of that concept", but Jinsoul prefectly did the water concept to the point that it's "oh that concept reminds me of that song"
She defined water, she defined blue, she defined rain, she defined the concept. The song sounds so much like flowing water and strong rain, no other song can do it like SITR.

It’s just a theory. In the Loonnaverse, Heejin created her angels to spread colors around the boring world.
