HELLO YOUNGJAE, JUST A BLINK OF AN EYE AND WE ARE NEARING THE MIDWAY MARK OF 2022. HOW HAS THE YEAR BEEN FOR YOU SO FAR?
We haven’t had a break since early 2021. Now is the time to take care of the people around us and start working again.
SURELY YOU WOULD HAVE SET SOME GOALS FOR YOURSELF AT THE START OF THE YEAR. ARE YOU GETTING CLOSER TO ACHIEVING ANY OF THEM SO FAR?
Rather than getting closer to my goals, I find myself working hard to develop myself every day. I try harder because I can’t be perfect.
APART FROM WORK, HOW DO YOU SPEND YOUR TIME THESE DAYS? DID YOU PICK UP ANY NEW HOBBIES FROM THE PANDEMIC LOCKDOWN THAT YOU ARE STILL PURSUING?
I don’t have a new hobby. I relieve my stress by playing games or eating delicious food as usual.
THIS MONTH WILL BE EXCITING FOR YOU AS GOT7 HAS RELEASED THEIR NEW EP ON 23 MAY 2022. HOW ARE YOU FEELING ABOUT THIS RELEASE?
Thank you so much for your love and through this new album, we were able to reaffirm GOT7’s strong friendship.
HOW WAS IT LIKE WORKING WITH YOUR BANDMATES ON A NEW PROJECT ONCE AGAIN? I BELIEVE EVERYONE FOUND A NEW LEVEL OF MATURITY COMING OUT OF THE PANDEMIC AND THIS WILL TRANSLATE INTO HOW YOU GUYS COMMUNICATE AND WORK WITH EACH OTHER.
While preparing the new project, I realised that we still have fun together and that communication among the members is very important. I was very happy throughout the whole process, performing and preparing for the album.
WHAT DO YOU THINK FANS CAN EXPECT FROM THIS EP IN TERMS OF MUSIC STYLE AND LYRIC WRITING?
With this new EP, I hope the fans can feel that this is GOT7.
