Not long after his cover was released, Avril Lavigne once again took to her Twitter to share her thoughts. 

She re-tweeted HUENINGKAI's cover of the song, and commented, "Amazing cover!" alongside an orange heart and skateboard emojis. 

Then, she started following TXT's official Twitter account after that as well, making a great number of K-pop fans excited.
