Before the actual event, she composed a song in a mix tape and a letter to share her experience as a singer in training and whilst he was signing her copy of the book, she slided it to the rapper. Andria recalled the experience as time stopping, ''"He looked at me like I was crazy and for a few seconds I thought it had been years. In the end he smiled and said thankyou."''

Critical Reception

Public gave a highly positive rating on the average of 87% on Oricorn Music Survey, the highest ever of a debuting artist this year and at #3 of all times debuting artist. Aacki Sachyeo of Music Station commented it as one of the best self composing debut ever. "You would never expect such works by a only debuting artist at fifteen [years of age]. This certainly raises expectations for her debut album and she will have high standards to fill up to but certainly someone very promising."

Many praised her unique tone and greatly accompanied by the low key voices of male solo artist Jan Di.
