    Background and release[edit]

    Composition[edit]

    The title track of Happily Ever After, "Bet Bet", is the final part in the "Three-part Knight Series" that began in NU'EST's 2016 extended play, Q is.[2] It is described as a future bass song composed of "whistling synths" and "staccatoed beats", with lyrics about an "addiction-like love."[2] The song "Different" was described as having a part that sounds like "going through the universe."[5]

    Minhyun's solo song "Universe" was released digitally on April 3, 2019 along with its music video as a pre-release track.[6] The music video was filmed in Budapest and Milan.[7] The song was later included in physical releases of Happily Ever After.[8]
