Jungyeon revealed the TWICE members were confused by "Signal" when they first heard the track.
Though it went on to be a hit, "Signal" wasn't exactly what TWICE expected. The girl group were guests on the May 30th broadcast of SBS PowerFM's 'Choi Hwa Jung's Power Time', and DJ Choi Hwa Jung asked what they personally thought of the song. Jungyeon responded, "We thought, 'What is this?' He didn't tell us it was our title song and just sent us the track. We thought it wasn't our title track."
She continued, "It's different than our previous title songs, so we thought, 'What is this?' When we heard it was our title track, it was just like, 'I see.'"
As for the track's success, Chaeyoung commented, "I think we all worried about it. It was something new, so we wondered whether it was right for us. That's why we worked hard preparing." Jihyo added, "It was the same with 'Cheer Up'."

It's JYP's product though, you can't blame why it gained a lot of attention

i was also confused by how bad the song was and why it twice continued to be popular then after hearing past the "signeul bonae signal bonae" garbage, the song was quite good. i like it a lot actually

Signal will do well since its Twice. For those who keep mention RV's rookie SK Reveluvs enjoyed it so it performed well (9 wins) domestically but isnt a favorite internationally. Signal does have 4 wins so far so they will probably get about 7-9 wins total both groups got a good sign tht they dont need the same starter (Nayeon for twice and Seulgi for RV) every time they have a comeback.
