The biggest show on earth in Brazil (World Cup 2014) is over but the summer party is about to begin. YES! MTV World Stage 2014!

Grab your party pants and get ready to soak up the sun with world-renowned artists in the one-night only outdoor concert in Surf Beach at Sunway Lagoon, Malaysia. With multi-genre talents being invited to perform every year including some biggest K-pop acts, the invitation card has been sent to Boys Republic to heat up the summer for the 6th installment of the show which is going to be held on 16 August 2014.

This five-membered group consists of Onejunn, Sunwoo (previously known as Dabin), Sungjun, Minsu and Suwoong, debuted in June 2013 with 'Party Rock' certainly bring more colours to the music industry. As the MTV World Stage 2014 is going to be held in less than a month, join us to get an inside view of Boy's Republic through our recent exclusive interview, as the boys are preparing for the showdown.

Q1: 'Video Game' was released in February and the concept is realizing your dreams & fantasies. Being chosen to be in MTV World Stage this year, do you agree that this opportunity was also a dream come true for the group to perform on the stage with a world-renowned artist?

Yes! MTV World Stage Malaysia 2014 is something that we've been always dreaming about. In fact, it's still hard for us to believe that we will be performing at this year's event. As South Korea's representative, we will try our best to show you what we have!

Q2: Do you have any international artist that you would like to collaborate with? Since Boys Republic and Malaysia's own Yoona are on the same stage for MTV World Stage for the first time, would you like to collaborate together in the future?

Absolutely! We would love to work with Yoona if the opportunity comes up.

Q3: Your debut song, 'Party Rock' seems a bit too much of auto tune and in your recent comeback single, 'Video Game', it has a heavy mixture of H.E.T (hybrid-electronic trap), intense electro bass and game sound effects. With two different genres being released so far, how far do you think your music has matured and what kind of music genres you would like to try and featured in your next album?

We think we still have a lot to develop. In order to do that, we are listening to and trying many different genres of music. Then eventually, we will be able to showcase new songs and different styles! Our upcoming single will also sound different from what we have released. What will never change is our determination to give fans positive, healthy energy from watching us and listening to our music.

Q4: The tagline for 'Video Game', Childish Boys Growing Up to be Superheroes where each one of you transformed into some of the world famous superheroes like Batman, Spiderman, Ironman, Super Mario and Wolverine. With your involvement in 'Eye Camp Expedition', a charity campaign to help virtually impaired in Vietnam, do you think more or less you are becoming their 'superhero'?

Actually, we think the people we met in Vietnam were the real superheroes because we learnt how to feel the true joy from them while we were doing the charity volunteer work.

Q5: Since this 'Fantasy Trilogy' gives space for the fans to make their dreams come true, can we anticipate more direct involvement of your fans in the future? For example in your next MV, your fans will (i) be your stylist, (ii) your makeup artist, OR (iii) to a certain extent directing the mv?

Those are great ideas - becoming music video directors or make-up artists! Apart from that, we are also looking for ideas from fans to get closer to them by hashtagging #whatisyourfantasy on our social media. Please send us through... more!

"We are very excited to share a stage with many top-class musicians from all over the world. We are attending the festival as representatives of Korea, and we will do the best preparation that we can do," stated Boy's Republic. 

MTV World Stage 2014 will be held on 16 August 2014 at Surf Beach@ Sunway Lagoon, Malaysia and hosted by the dynamic duo MTV VJs, Alan Wong and Hanli Hoefer.
