[Lee Minhyuk] Interview (News1) – “Composing music since he was a teenager…ranking in the hiphop community too” [I Made] ①

October 3, 2024

< “I wanted to try something new and I also love challenges. When working with other composers we always say ‘Let’s do something we’ve never done before’, so that’s why we always try to explore new genres. Thankfully many people like our music that’s made that way, which makes me think that ‘I’m going in a good direction’.” – Minhyuk

[Yook Sungjae] Interview (GQ Golf Magazine) – “I try to be honest about golf and singing”

October 3, 2024

< “Even if it’s not golf, there are many similar phrases. Words like, “Be a good listener before being a good speaker.” I always accept criticism of myself. I tend to want to know my weaknesses first, rather than my strengths. It’s a showy job and confidence is important, but I think you should have some level of worry and anxiety. I think the more I know about my weakness, the more I can be loved by people.” >
< “I want to live without knowing. Once you find the answer to the question, ‘What is happiness?’, you have to keep looking for the next happiness. Because human greed has no end. Is this happiness? Is that happiness? I want to live and feel that way.” >

[Lee Changsub] Interview – Theatre Plus January 2024 Issue

October 3, 2024

< I think effort is the default in everything. It is the basics of being a professional to continue making efforts in any form. You have to produce good results through that. Even if it doesn’t guarantee perfect results, I think we need to constantly work hard to get closer to success. >
< There are times when I can’t do that either. It’s really hard to put your best into everything. But if I do something I really like, it becomes natural. Furthermore, it is very important not only to make an effort, but also to judge how to make an effort in a given situation. There are times when you need to quickly change your methods to suit the environment. >

[Yook Sungjae] Interview (COSMOPOLITAN) – ‘Yook’ Sungjae ‘Good’ Looking, ‘Falling’ Again! – CELEBRITY Reading

October 3, 2024

< “The concept of this album is ‘a closer look revealing Yook Sungjae’s new side’. Rather than ‘true’, I think it’s more to the ‘other’ side of me. Not what I’ve presented until now, not the Yook Sungjae that’s liked by the public, but the side I want to show you. So you would feel quite a difference from BTOB Yook Sungjae’s voice.” >

[Peniel] Interview (News1) – “Secret to improving Korean quickly? It was love”

October 3, 2024

< “One advice I want to give is to enjoy it. When a foreigner come to Korea, they would inevitably feel cultural differences. But it’s something you want to do, so I think it will be fine if you enjoy it. For me being on stage is so much fun. Being an idol comes with a lot of sacrifices. You have to endure it, and enjoy it as much as possible while understanding Korean culture. There is another crucial reason why I’m able to be an active Kpop singer for more than 10 years. It’s the good members. Meeting good members makes me able to endure many things.” >

[BTOB] Interview (My Daily) – “As long as we produce music that we won’t be ashamed of…”

October 2, 2024

<  “We like it if we can do well in just one shot, but we are singers that do music, we feel that making music that we won’t be ashamed of is even more important. Even if we don’t do well on music charts, we feel confident.” – Lee Minhyuk >

October 2, 2024

< BTOB expressed, “While we were having our break, we monitored our previous promotions and it seems like our position among many boy groups is still vague. (Therefore) We worked very hard to overcome our shortcomings and to have our very own colors.” >
