Nine held a showcase for their first mini-album 'Who We Are' at Yes24 Live Hall in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul on the 1st and said "I'm happy that the dreams of nine people have become a reality."
The nine formed through SBS 'Universe League' are the best '9 people' who won the final 'Winning Cup' in a fierce survival. Even before their debut, they have shown extraordinary presence by revealing their solid skills, visuals, and talents in fierce survival.
The team name 'AHOF' is an abbreviation for 'All time Hall of Fame' and a name for the unfinished number '9'. Members who dream of becoming global stars are a team with infinite possibilities and growth, along with their bold ambition to become the 「K-pop Hall of Fame」.
Daisuke "I'm glad my dream came true. I can't wait to sing our music to our fans who made our dreams come true. We'll work hard until we get on the K-pop Hall of Fame", he expressed his feelings about his debut.
The debut album 'Who We Are' features the journey of finding the color and identity of the nine teams before reaching perfection. It's an album that contains the story of nine boys who started with 'sincere' rather than 'bright'. Jungwoo "It's not perfect, but it contains dreams, hopes, and journeys that he has been drawing. It is an album with the anxiety I felt while preparing for my debut and sincerity toward my fans.
In particular, El Capitan, who directed Universe League, is in charge of producing all the songs, and the members are pressing their sincerity to make them expect a higher-quality music.
The title song 'Rendezvous' is a band track that projects complex emotions over the dreamy sound of guitar and drums. The song depicts a boy's imperfections and hopes intersect. In addition, the moment you want to return, you convey the heart you still have not said and the heart you have not let go of.
Cha Woong-ki, who participated in writing the title song, said "It is a song that matches the delicate vocals of our members well with a dreamy sound. I tried to express the anxiety I felt in the process of pursuing my dream."
He also pointed out the point choreography. Park Joo-won explained "The choreography is the point that melts the meaning of the lyrics to hug me just once."
Nine will release their debut album 'Who We Are' through various music sites at 6 p.m. on the 1st.
