In line with these words, the group sang “DEPEND ON YOU”—a breezy, mellow track about steady hands that offer strength and support in the midst of darkness. “DEPEND ON YOU” first appeared on _Eyes Wide Open_, one of [TIME’s Albums That Defined K-Pop’s Monumental Year in 2020](https://time.com/5920059/best-kpop-2020/ "undefined"); its lyrics are penned by TWICE’s oldest member, Nayeon.
