The "Imagine Show" is a major tourist attraction in Dubai, recognized by the Guinness World Records for having the world's largest water screen projection and permanent projection mapping.

The show is known for its spectacular fountain performances that utilize advanced technology, such as color projectors, LED lights, lasers and drones, all synchronized to music.

It marks the first time a song by a K-pop girl group has been chosen as the background music for the fountain show. Previously, "Hurdle" by Suho of boy group EXO was the first K-pop song to be used at the show.
