In January 2023, he debuted with “Fly Away” and in February of the following year, he appeared on the popular Korean survival program “PEAK” on JTBC.
``BXB'' is a four-member boy group that became a hot topic when they appeared on ``TIME'' as ``Team 4 o'clock.'' same year
From April, wowKorea will conduct an exclusive interview with BXB, who have officially expanded into Japan and are actively engaged in activities, and will be filled with anecdotes with fans and the situation within the group.
I asked him to tell me. Q. Please tell me about the group “BXB”. Siu: Hello. My name is Siu, and I'm in charge of rapping for "BXB". nice to meet you
. I think our group ``BXB'' is a group of friends who come together in a very family-like atmosphere and tell stories that only we can tell.
Hamin: Hello. My name is Hamin and I am the vocalist for “BXB”. "BXB" is the group name Boy By
Like Brush, each color is a very distinct group. I think this is a group that can definitely show this point every time they perform on stage.
HyunWoo: Hello. I'm HyunWoo, who is in charge of rapping and main dance in "BXB". In my opinion, the group called “BXB” is Boy By.
As befits the name "Brush", the group aims to portray the various emotions that young people have through various genres of music.
Jihoon: Hello. My name is Jihoon and I am the vocalist for BXB.
"BXB" really feels like old friends, seeing friends from the same class, so I think that's the kind of group it is.
. Q. Please tell us about the members' charms and personalities. Siu: I think Hamin, who is next to me, was born to be an idol. She has always been good at dancing and singing, and
Even his facial expressions on stage are very good. Despite her cute appearance, she has a cold personality and is a person who makes very rational decisions. Hamin: Thank you (lol)
In the case of HyunWoo, the leader next to me, I can say that his charm is his charm. On the one hand, she is chic and unfriendly, but on the other hand, she is very considerate of her members and the people around her, which is her charm.
I would say that he is like a cat, the more we get to know each other, the more fun he becomes and the more I feel like he is my best friend. HyunWoo: Thank you.
Jihoon has a very "boyfriend-like" kindness and sweet charm, and he's the funniest member of the group, which is a bit contrary to his model student image.
-There is also. So I think his humor, which is not afraid of breaking down, is his charm. Jihoon: Siwoo is funny. But when he's not doing anything, his everyday appearance is very funny in itself.
I'm actually more shy than you'd think, so I don't say much. I'm the most fun member when I'm just sitting still. HyunWoo: Do you mean I have to stay still? (laughs)
Q. Is there anything that's popular within the group? Siwoo: We have a lot of memes.
"Anyway" is the English word for "anyway", and recently, when we switch hot topics, we always say "anyway".
Hamin: It's a little different. Jihoon: It's not the original meaning, but there are times when the flow of a conversation is interrupted. When that happens, you say "anyway."
It does feel like it's just something that's passed off as is, or used as a kind of interjection, but I think it's a common phrase used often in "BXB."
Hamin: Anyway! Jihoon: Like this. We use it when we feel a bit awkward or the conversation has stopped.
HyunWoo: And one more thing, before our performance, a video is shown.
There is a scene where we say "Go for it" together, and in line with that, I always hold a microphone in the wings and say "Go for it" along with the video before the performance, which is like a routine in Japan performances.
Q. Please tell us your impressions of Japanese fans and any memorable episodes from concerts or special events.
Siu: We performed on March 14th, and it was really cold that day.
It was very hot inside the performance venue thanks to the support of the fans. I feel like I still can't forget that enthusiasm.
Hamin: While “BXB” was doing this promotional performance, we and the group
There was an event where you could take photos, wasn't there? But in such cases, you can hold a lottery and ask people to raise their hands when their number is called.
However, when I saw it, some people seemed very embarrassed and raised their hands slightly. But every time I see something like that, I see people who are really shy and visiting for the first time.
Since there are so many of them, I feel like I want to give them more attention, so they can get closer to us quickly, show us new and better stages, and make us fall in love with them.
I think so. HyunWoo: The episode that comes to mind is when we prepared a group vocal song to show our fans a different side this time. But my true nature
My position is rap, so I've done a lot of melodic rap, but this was the first time I'd done something like this with vocals for a performance, so I had to do a lot of melody rap.
I was nervous, but the fans really liked it, and I had a great experience, so I started to take an interest in vocals.
Jihoon: At special events, fans often request poses for us as a group. example
There are a lot of requests that the four of us have to make a big heart or a big star, but we've never succeeded in doing that at once, so it's always difficult.
I was confused and all I remember was wondering what to do...I remember those times very much. HyunWoo: Did it always end up being unfinished?
Jihoon: I finished it, but it took a while, so I think it must have been Dan Ji. HyunWoo: It just took a little longer.
Q. Is there anything you must eat or do when you come to Japan? Siu: Whenever I come here, I eat abura soba on the first day. Abura soba is the best! Really.
Hamin: I feel the same way about abura soba. In my case...actually, it's already been two weeks since I came to Japan.
I haven't had it yet, but I will definitely try the beef cutlet.
HyunWoo: Since we both talked about what we eat, I'll tell you what I often do. Whenever I come to Japan, I always go to art museums.
I like to go there, so I'm thinking of going there again this time. Jihoon: I haven't been out lately because it's been a bit cold, but there's a big park nearby. So I did a horizontal bar
is. It has become a routine for me to go to the park after work and go to the dormitory, and I exercise there every time I perform in Japan. Q.What Japanese words have you learned recently?
Shiu: I knew it until just now, but it's a Japanese word that means "please don't cry." A fan was crying and I wanted to say this... I learned the phrase "Please don't cry."
Hamin: It's been raining a lot lately, hasn't it? That's how I learned to take shelter from the rain. The time spent waiting until the rain stops is called ``Ameyadori.'' That's really
It was very impressive and I recently remembered it. Is there anything else? HyunWoo: Me? There is one Japanese word that I learned during the event, and it's the word "torimasu", which I really like.
I think it's a word that stuck with me and made me remember it well. I often use it as "torimasu". Jihoon: There were words I studied yesterday, but the ones that come to mind right now are “words,” “aru,” and “
cold". It's been cold lately. These are the three that come to mind right now. Q. Is there anything memorable in Japanese that you learned from a fan?
Siu: There's something very romantic about it, ``The moon is beautiful, isn't it?'' Very
It was impressive. I heard it was a confessional comment, but I think it's very romantic. Hamin: It was the vernal equinox recently, wasn't it? It is the day when the length of the night is longer than the length of the day.
That's right, there is a day called ``Vernal Equinox''. Actually, this was the first time I learned that there is a vernal equinox, and also the first time I learned that that day is a national holiday in Japan.
It was also very impressive. HyunWoo: There is one word that I like. When we first came to Japan, our fans taught us the words "Let's be together forever." Min
I really have a lot of fond memories of screaming while talking like this, and it's one of my favorite Japanese expressions because it's an expression I learned from a fan. "We'll be together forever"
Sho. ” Jihoon: I learned the meaning a little later, but... (a fan) said, ``It's a little chilly today,'' and I just replied, ``Yes,'' because it's cold. forever"
"It's chilly," he said, but I wasn't sure what he meant. But when I looked it up later, I found out that it was a comment used when in a relationship, asking someone to hold your hand because your hands are cold.
So I had fun learning it. Q. Please tell us your enthusiasm for the Japan tour starting in April. Siu: If you had shown some charm in the group in March and showed the charm of "BXB", then 4
It looks like this month will be a time to show off a little more of each member's charm. Hamin: We spent a lot of time practicing for our performance in April, but we needed you all.
We will create a good stage that will satisfy you and create many beautiful memories. HyunWoo: The promise we made to our fans during this performance was to show them that we are always growing.
That means. That's why even now, even on our days off, we're practicing by ourselves and having a lot of discussions and meetings for performances, so I'm sure we'll be able to show you even more great performances in April.
I think it's good. I want you to spend time with me. Jihoon: Our goal is to meet as many fans as possible who can't come to Korea. And to all the new fans
I also wish that I could meet you. Q. Lastly, please give a message to your fans. Siu: Dear fans, we will overcome this difficult world together.
Hey! Go for it! Hamin: We, BXB, will always work hard to make our fans proud of our stage and become proud singers. Let's make beautiful memories together
let's go. HyunWoo: We, BXB, will continue to grow as a result of everyone's support, so let's look at the same place and walk the same path together.
I think cod. thank you. Let's be together forever! Jihoon: We celebrated our 400th anniversary together the other day, and I'm very grateful to everyone who has walked with me until now.
is. Also, I would like to tell the new fans I met while performing here that I want to meet them for a long time, rather than just passing through each other. thank you.
The four members of "BXB" answered each question carefully and sometimes with fun, and appeared on FC LIVE for about a month from April 3rd to April 29th.
A mini-live is scheduled to be held in TOKYO. We look forward to the future successes of BXB, who are known for their harmonious dance performances and interactions with fans in Japanese.
