[INTERVIEW] B.A.P “Bang Yongguk comeback →performance as a whole touching, full feeling like confidence”

Youngjae met with Newsen and expressed satisfaction on the news, “This album is a single which includes 3 songs and (I) like the songs itself. I’m really happy. (I) prepared for this comeback stage with a very fluttering heart.” And also stated “If the last album’s title ‘SKYDIVE’ was a heavy feeling, this new song is a song with a feeling in which we solved that in a more supple way. We tried our best to convey the meanings we wanted to deliver more precisely than ‘SKYDIVE’. The rose color has a more sexy feeling. I think we’ll be able to show you a more sexier feeling on stages.”

Himchan stated, “It’s a song that matches well with this period (of time/age), is very refined, has a feeling and strongly addicting. Even the choreography is a style we haven’t tried until now. We attempted for a different choreography.” And added on with a joke, “Since Jongup and Zelo are in charge of dancing, it’ll be good to only look at (these) two members in terms of choreography.” Prior to (Himchan), Youngjae said “I am cool too. Daehyun-ie, Himchan hyung is cool too and Yongguk hyung is also cool too.”

Also hinted about the point choreo. Daehyun explained, “When you are watching the chorus there is a point where it says to wake up, get up. There is a dance we do during the chorus part, I think you (guys) will know exactly that that’ll be the point (choreo). There is a dance part with a feeling as if saying ‘wake up’, I think it’ll be good to watch that part.” Himchan also explained, “When you watch the choreography there’s a part where Jongup, Youngjae and Daehyun dances first during the chorus part. And then every members dances (together), it’s a sexy feeling.”

Himchan, who came back with an unrecognizable lean image joked with, “For me, the most priority focus on this album was diet. Since too much people told me to lose weight.” And continued, “With the comeback ahead, I think I lost about 7kg. Before that I had gained a lot. But since it is something that I had to do I did it (diet).”

When asked how it feels to comeback as a whole after a long time, Youngjae answered, “Today when Yongguk hyung came out the fans kept shouting out loud. It was touching.” Daehyun revealed, “Even on the stage itself, (we) firstly did not feel any emptiness and rather felt more full for sure and because of that I will be able to perform more confidently. I felt more cheered up. The fans are sending us very positive reactions. After the release of the album and the music video, they are using a lot of very thankful expression, ‘the greatest’.

They also hinted about the NEXT ALBUM and the solo concert that will take place at the end of the month. Daehyun stated, “The information on the next album is a secret.” Youngjae explained with, “(We) already prepared for the album. Since (we) decided on the concept, we won’t be able to tell (you guys) beforehand. But since (we) already have been having album concept relating meetings ever since last year, (we) have them prepared.”

About the concert, Daehyun added, “We are preparing a lot for our solo stages too. We are trying to show variety images (of us) we are preparing for a long time. Since the concert starts soon, I think we’ll start proper practices. Since this concert will proceed with the title ‘PARTY BABY,’ the concept itself is completely different. (We) will prepare for an exciting, more party feeling like and able to enjoy with the fans (concert).
