October 3, 2024

< “I thought it would be nice to have various images that I wanted to gain through this activity and various views on us, but starting with this activity, I also got to modify ‘Trust and listen to BTOB’ to ‘Trust, watch, and listen to BTOB’. I’m proud that it’s a promotion that can give you the joy of watching BTOB who you can trust and listen to.” – Minhyuk. >
< “I’m grateful to Melody for being with us all the time. In the past, I saw a fan saying that fans and singers seem to have a one-sided relationship, and I was sad about the story. Of course, that could be the case, but I decided to express and love Melody more so that they wouldn’t feel that way.” – 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. >
