To celebrate their recent song release and to prepare for their upcoming album release in October, the members sat down with iHeartRadio and Most Request Live‘s Ask Anything Chat, where they answered questions submitted by MOAs (TXT fans) from around the world.

One fan asked about the group’s collaboration with Anitta and wanted to know if they experienced any culture shock while working with the Brazilian star.

TXT’s leader Soobin replied that it may have been the opposite experience. While the K-Pop group hadn’t experienced culture shock, they believe Anitta may have.

The group revealed that, while working on the single, Anitta visited the HYBE company building in Korea which allowed the members to introduce her to Korean culture and food.

Soobin shared that she must have gone home “quite shocked.”

Soobin concluded that Anitta promised to introduce them to Brazilian culture in the future, so they anticipate that they’ll be the ones experiencing culture shock later.
