【Exclusive】GOT7's Japan Debut With 'Around The World'! (1) Jr. Spends His Birthday In Japan
We are delivering a fresh interview with GOT7, who debuted in Japan on Oct. 22 with their new album, Around The World.
âLet's begin the interview!
All members: Sure!
âJr., happy birthday! (He had his birthday and turned 20 on the day before the interview)
All members: Yay~! Happy birthday~! (applause)
âHow was your birthday?
Jr.ï¼It was filled with a busy work schedule. (Laughter) But it was a very fun birthday. The staff gave me a cake and gifts, and even prepared an event. I wasn't really considering my birthday as special, but this time I could spend it overseas, so it felt special unlike other years.
âBy the way, if you are asked, "What kind of group is GOT7?" how would you explain?
Jr.ï¼We are a bright, energy-filled group!
Mark: A fresh group.
JBï¼A group who attracts with its honesty.
âRegarding your Japan debut single to be released on Oct. 22, it has two songs, "AROUND THE WORLD" and "SO LUCKY." Through these two songs, what kind of color of GOT7 is expressed?
Youngjae: "AROUND THE WORLD" is a bright, energetic song, and expresses our freshness. Fancy performance with martial arts and tricking are also attractive. "SO LUCKY" is similar in its brightness, but it is a little softer and reveals a different charm.
Jackson: That's right. We all agree.
