    II. Background & Release

    SM Station is a digital music project under SM Entertainment that involves solos or duets from members in existing SM groups, as well as opportunities for singers to experiment in other genres or collaborate with artists inside and outside of SM Entertainment. The project releases a number of singles digitally each year on digital platforms, including streaming audio like Spotify.


    SM Station tracks encompass a range of genres. "Coffee Break" included a number of global artists on a unique jazz-inflected track. Jonah Nilsson is a member of the Swedish group Dirty Loops, which plays a hybrid of jazz, bass fusion, funk and pop. Richard Bona is an award-winning Cameroon-born American bass player. Lucas is a member of the boy group NCT. At the time of the song, rapper Lucas had made his debut in NCT as part of the NCT 2018 Empathy project and album but was not in a permanent NCT sub-unit. The next month, he would be announced as a member of the fourth NCT sub-unit, WayV.


    The song was described by SM as an "up-tempo jazz punk genre with a variety of jazz musical instruments."
