== Background and release ==
On March 31, 2019, a teaser titled “#” was released on LOONA’s official YouTube channel. This release came directly after conclusion of official promotions for [X X], LOONA’s previous album, identical to the release of the first [X X] teaser immediately following the end of [+ +] promotions. Unlike the [X X] teaser cycle, however, the next teaser for [#] would not materialize for almost nine months.
On December 13, 2019, LOONA released digital single “365” as a thank you to fans for waiting so long for the group’s return.
On December 15, 2019, a new teaser titled “#1” appeared on YouTube.“LOONA releases striking teaser” Soompi. 2019.12.15 At midnight on January 1, 2020, LOONA posted a teaser, featuring a red moon and the words “2020 / Coming Soon / LOONA”, for their upcoming album [#] on Twitter.loonatheworld “2020 ‘#’ Coming Soon” Twitter. 2020.01.01

== Composition ==
Jaden Jeong, who acted as LOONA’s creative director and head of A&R since the beginning of the LOONA project, left the enterprise following his involvment in [X X]. Longtime A&R members Ryu Ji In (HeeJin to [X X]) and Kim Hyun Ho (YeoJin to [X X]) also departed around the same time.
Lee Soo Man, founder of multinational entertainment company SM Entertainment, worked as “Music Producer” on [#]. LOONA is the first non-SM artist Lee Soo Man has produced for. He was impressed by LOONA’s 2019 dance cover of “Cherry Bomb”, a song by NCT 127 of SM Entertainment. According to LOONA member Yves, “While working on his global project, [Lee Soo Man] found out about us. After seeing our cover of ‘Cherry Bomb’, he saw potential in us and gladly participated as a producer, for which we are grateful for.”
Every track from the [#] mini-album (seven tracks in total) was produced by at least one producer from music rights company EKKO Music Rights, which was co-founded by Lee Soo Man. This mini-album is the first post-debut LOONA music project not to feature songs made by South Korean producing team MonoTree.
