"Lucky" was offered to Lucky Twice a week after they were signed. However, the pop duo rejected the song calling it "Babyish" and insisted they wrote their own song. Europa Records rejected the song they had written and said that "Lucky" was suitable for their debut but they refused. Two months later, Lucky Twice chose "Hip Non Stop" as their debut but Europa refused and threatened to drop them if they didn't pick "Lucky". Lucky Twice finally gave in and made "Lucky" their debut. |
