[BTOB] Interview – NEWSEN “Rather than being 1st, being able to move people is more important. Rather than rising up, we want to go for a long time and far away” (Interview ①)

September 28, 2024

< “For us, more than anything, whenever we heard the fans or the public saying ‘my heart got healed after listening to BTOB’s song’ or ‘I can start my day full of spirit after listening to BTOB’s song’ that’s when we could feel the greatest reward,” said Changsub. >
< “For now, rather than we’re going to rise, I think it would be more fit to say that we’re going for a long time. We want to go for a long long way. We want to take more challenges in music and we want to show new sides of our music,” said Eunkwang >

< I think I still have a long way to become the best vocalist that I’ve been dreaming of. Emotion, experience, my own color, and others, I have to keep searching for those and develop it. Fighting! >

[Yook Sungjae] Interview ‘Piece of BTOB’ – A perfect man who is good at singing, acting, and handsome, Yook Sungjae’s “Tell Me”

September 28, 2024

< “Tell Me“, I guess it’s between calm and mournful. It contains lyrics that can be used in real life, so I think many people can relate to the song.  I thought the mic as a person and I really sang as if I was acting. >

< It’s an R&B hip-hop song with a theme of ‘rain’ which explains the pain and regret after a breakup. I wanted to maximize the emotion like storytelling with the point of view of both men and women. I chose ‘Purple Rain’ as the title because the purple color feels mysterious and gloomy so it’ll suit the emotion of the song. >
< I always think “let’s make a song that no one can feel ashamed of whenever and wherever they hear it” every time I start working. Even though it’s not going to be the best, but at least it’s not going to be embarrassing. Also, I’m full of confidence. >
