Moon Jeongho of Music Y reviewed "Electron Sheep's music stimulated those who enjoyed music that was not out of trend in the corner of the room, not in the outside, which formed a fairly attractive consensus."[4] Cha Woojin of Weiv described the album as "The format of alternating songs with different moods of the album Day Is Far Too Long does not make noise and melody mixed sounds boring or unfamiliar."[3]
