On November 19, CIX held a showcase for the release of their new EP “HELLO Chapter 2: Hello, Strange Place.”

This is the group’s first ever comeback, having released their debut EP earlier this year. The members said, “When we released our debut album, we didn’t have time to be nervous. This time, we thought it would be easier, but we want to show our growth from the first album, so we’re a little nervous.”

Bae Jin Young said, “We prepared an album that is as unique as CIX, so please show it a lot of love. We only thought about how we can show our fans, who have waited for us, a new side to our growth.”

About their title track, “Numb,” Yonghee said, “This song is about the various problems that our generation is facing. It is meant to give hope and tell people not to give up.”

BX added, “The first EP, ‘Hello, Stranger’ told the general story of our trilogy. ‘Hello, Strange Place’ is the beginning of the actual story.”

Asked about the hardships of preparing for a comeback, Bae Jin Young said, “We received the song ‘Numb’ while we were still promoting our first album. We listened to a lot of songs while promoting ‘Movie Star.’ The hardest part of preparing for a comeback was when we were all tired and needed sleep.”

He added that the group’s 2020 goals were, “We want to promote often and walk down this path with fans until the end. We want to make our name known among the public and fans, and we want to make even better music.”
