heechulβs comment:
βthey told me to film this so i didβ¦ but even watching it again now, i wonder what is the context (of this video) π€£β
LOL HEECHUL π
Can't wait for 83z on "Hey come here" π
π: So, what I found really funny, what was the thing that Donghae and Hyukjae doing, "Hey come here"
I went there with Jungsoo. It was much more crowded back then than it is now.
We were talking, and then Hyukjae asked,
Q: You previously performed as a special duo at concerts, and now you've officially debuted as a subunit. Can you tell us how the unit was formed and how you feel about officially promoting together?
π€: At first, neither Heechul nor I expected this at all. We had no idea things would grow this big.
π¦: That's right.
π€: But once we started working together, we had so much fun making this album. As for how the unit was formed...
π¦: It actually happened while we were working together. At first, we were preparing for SUPER SHOW.
π€: We were getting ready for the encore concert.
π¦: Right. We needed subunit performances, but I realized I was the only one without a subunit. So I said, "It's okay, you can leave me out." Then I think Shindong said, "No way! Hyung, why don't you form a duo with Leeteuk hyung?" We quickly started working on songs together, and as we continued, someone suggested, "Why don't you officially promote as a subunit?" That's how it all happened.
π€: That's exactly right.
Q: Besides both being born in 1983, you have very different personalities and working styles. While preparing for the concert and album, was there a moment when those differences created great chemistry? Or any funny moment that made you realize you worked together better than expected?
π¦: Even during recording, Leeteuk trusted me a lot and left many things to me. Since his vocal range is higher and he's better at high notes, he handled all the high parts.
π€: I think our biggest strength is that we're completely different. Every meeting, we come up with different ideas, which gives us more perspectives and makes the final result richer.
π¦: The funniest thing is that before every meeting, he tells me, "Heechul, just do whatever you want." But once the meeting starts and I explain all my ideas, he suddenly says, "Hmm... I think I'd rather do it this way." Then why did you ask me to say everything?
π€: I was just sharing my own thoughts.
π¦: Fair enough.
π€: Exactly.
Q: Please introduce your debut mini album *Promise*, including the title track and the meaning behind the album.
π€: *Promise* combines the music and emotions that Heechul and I loved while growing up in elementary and middle school with the feelings of today's generation.
These days, many songs focus on simple lyrics and repetitive beats, but our title track puts more emphasis on delivering a clear message of hope through its lyrics and melody.
If you listen to it while imagining yourself as the main character in a coming-of-age drama, I think you'll enjoy it even more.
π¦: That's right.
Q: Your first Asia Fan-Con tour is coming up soon. How do you take care of your health, stay in shape, and relieve stress?
π¦: Honestly, I don't feel much stress. Preparing for 83z has been exciting because we've received so much love from our fans, so I've been happy throughout the whole process.
π€: Whenever I don't have any schedules, I spend most of my time at the golf course.
π¦: Ah, so that's how you relieve stress.
π€: Yes. I just hit lots of golf balls.
Q: You'll be performing in Kaohsiung and Taipei this October and November. Do you have a message for E.L.F. who are worried about getting tickets?
π€: Please don't miss this chance. Keep clicking until your fingerprints wear out if you have to. We really hope you'll come and enjoy the music Heechul and I have prepared.
π¦: We hope you enjoyed seeing us today. Please continue to give lots of love and support to SUPER JUNIOR-83z, our first mini album *Promise*, and our upcoming performances and concerts.
π€π¦: Thank you!
Heechul: βAnyone else carry Dubai chewy cookies in their bag?ββ
HAHAHAHA Heechul still canβt get over the fact that Leeteuk carries Dubai chewy cookies in his bagπ€£
Hyukjae about 83z π¦π¦π₯°
π°: Our youngest unit, really. SJ now is in our 21st year, right? I think our team is really the only team that has a new unit in its 21st year, right? A new unit can come out even in the 21st year. In my respect, our team is truly amazing.
the only time we saw them again together was around sujuβs 15th anniv promo π
my 2020 self will definitely not believe that all of these 83z contents are happening, let alone this sub-unit debut. it really dragged me out of my hiatus slash fangirling slumber ππ₯Ί
i could still remember during 2020, drought was severe, to the point that we are so happy enough during that july bday event teuk went to and the closest we can get to teukchul in one frame together is him and heeβs standee (or banner?) ππ€£
teukchul nation, remember when we used to pull giveaway just to make the 83z unit win on that sj awards vote? or just simply celebrating any crumbs we got? now weβre getting their mini album and the yaoi mv π thank you for not giving up guys, weβve come this farπ
PERFECTION IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT FOR THIS DEBUT.
ALBUM DESIGN, MV, SONGS, PROMOTIONS... EVERYTHING IS PERFECT.
I GUESS GOOD THINGS REALLY COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT (VERY PATIENTLY)
83z PROMISE US FOREVER
