Ben&Ben has been quite productive during quarantine period, holding intimate online gigs, releasing several songs, and coming up with BBTV amid the pandemic.
“Leaves” trended in South Korean music charts earlier this year, with K-pop stars like Wendy of Red Velvet, Bambam of GOT7 and Momo of Twice saying they loved the song.
