On May 30, 2019, Yesung announced that he would have a Korean comeback in June, marking his first Korean comeback in two years following the release of Spring Falling. He was originally scheduled for a comeback in March but it coincides with Super Junior's third world tour, delaying the comeback for another three months.

02Composition
The EP contains a variety of genres. Speaking of its variety presented, Yesung stated "The mini-album is full of songs that I like. I want to create music with a variety of genres that everyone can like."
The EP begins with title track "Pink Magic", a rhythmic pop song with a bouncy signature synth sound with an upbeat guitar sound. "Every Day, Wait for Us" is a traditional K-ballad song that conveys anger and sadness of waiting to meet someone again. The third song, "Parallel Lines" is a pop-rock song with Britpop influence that expresses an unapproachable love in parallel lines. "I'll Remember" is described as a song that expressed delicate emotional line between happiness and sadness.
Yesung is involved in writing and composing two songs, "Eat's OK" and "Wish." "Eat's OK" is a song addressed to the fans with witty lyrics and warm guitar sounds. "Wish" is a ballad song with fairytale-like story with a piano melody accompanying it.
