As many as 3,000 fans gathered at High-Touch Meeting which was held before the show ended, proving its high popularity. The release of the four songs was also decided at the request of fans. Based on the already-formed fandom and the interest of the public, all WIN songs are sweeping top places in music charts. “Go Up” was composed by Gang Seung Yoon and Song Min Ho, and its lyrics were written by Gang Seung Yoon, Lee Seung Hoon, and Song Min Ho. As its title shows, the song expresses Team A members’ resolution to “go to the top”. It begins in a rather toned-down mood, but soon turns into a positive and upbeat dance music, which gives a promising and hopeful message. Team B’s title song “Climax” was composed by B.I and Bobby, and all the members of Team B including B.I, Bobby, Kim Jin Hwan, Song Yoon Hyung, Goo Jun Hwe, and Kim Dong Hyuk took part in writing the song’s lyrics. It has a powerful rap, appealing melody in the latter part, as well as a splendid string section and R&B part, which touched the audience of the final battle, by expressing their earnest and desperate wish for debut, focusing on honesty and sincerity. Meanwhile, Team A, selected as the final winner of “WIN”, begins preparations for debut as boy band in earnest. Source: yg-life
