Release
Jade Contents Media revealed the first teaser of "Move" on 28 July bringing in a lot of attention due to the lesbian couple themed MV.[1] After releasing two more provocative teasers, controversies arouse and the company responded with "Our strategy is to show raw sexiness. The teasers are just the tip of the iceberg."[2]
4L released the full MV for "Move" on 1 August, while the single was released on Korean online websites the 4th of the same month.
Promotions
4L held their debut stage on music shows with "Move" 14 September on SBS's Inkigayo.[3] The reason for the big gap between the release of the song and the debut stage was that the choreography, song and clothes had to be changed.[4]
Music video
The full music video was released 1 August and reached 1 million views four days later.[5] It was also the fifth most viewed worldwide Korean MV on YouTube in August, surpassing established songs from artists like Kara, Secret and Sistar.[6] The video is lesbian themed, even though the lyrics are not.
