01:37your

01:40not
01:42oh
01:44uh
01:46the
01:48Absolutely. I'm really looking forward to everything that Treasure has in store for Tumis around the world.
01:54But also, I mean, I did get a glimpse of Love Pulse, your third mini album, and I wanted to know,
02:01there's a sense of joy and heartbreak both in the songs,
02:06but I want to know from y'all what do you prefer more, like what kind of vibe do y'all preferred?
02:10I think that I can enjoy a lot of colors, and I think that I can enjoy a lot of colors.
02:16So, I think that my members and me are so good.
02:20It's difficult to decide one thing,
02:24and I think that I can show a lot of colors and a lot of colors.
02:33Okay, now the title track Paradise, of course, captures the feeling that every moment that you spend with your loved one is like a dream.
02:40So, I want to know from Treasure, what is that one moment, what does Paradise mean to you at this moment, if I may ask?
02:48Oh, I mean, the meaning of Treasure is our beloved mini album,
02:56the title album, Eiza, and we also have a concert in June and a comeback in June.
03:03It's a really special song with Treasure makers and Treasure.
03:09And when I meet and meet and meet and meet, the place is Paradise.
03:14Okay, lovely. So now Forever, again, a song which wants a moment to last forever.
03:21If I could ask Treasure to tell me a moment that you really wish you could freeze,
03:27which moment would that be in your five years journey so far and why?
03:32I want to remember all the time of Treasure makers and Treasure makers and Treasure makers and Treasure makers.
03:39I want to remember all the time and remember all the time and remember all the time.
03:42I think it's my first debut after the debut.
03:47Oh, wow. That's interesting to hear.
03:50But now because you've been working together for that long, right?
03:53I believe when you work together with so many people for that long, it becomes your family,
03:58which means that you can understand each other without really talking.
04:02So I want to know how do you ever, like, is that the relationship dynamic that you share right now?
04:08And also if there is a disagreement, how do you resolve that in today's time?
04:12Hmm.
04:13Now, when we are 10 people, they are different from each other.
04:18They are different from each other.
04:22But also, we are also different from each other.
04:25We are learning from each other and we are learning from each other.
04:30We are learning from each other.
04:32We are learning from each other and we are learning from each other.
04:46Right. Which is that one song that you will recommend right now, if I may ask?
04:51Everything!
04:55You're my everything!
04:57I think I'm also looking forward to hearing that song.
05:02But now my next question is to the rap line, which is, of course, Yunsuk, Yoshi and Haruto.
05:09I want to know, you know, and fans would agree that your verses are a...
05:14Whenever you rap, there's a fine balance between power and emotions.
05:20I know it's a very difficult sort of balance to achieve.
05:24How do you know when to really, like, unleash the power when it comes to your rap lines and when to lower it down a bit?
05:31How do you decide on that?
05:33First of all, the band of Love First album is all different.
05:41I think that I did a lot of attention to those songs with it.
05:45Also, especially when the actors are working with my songs,
05:51and throughout that character, you are really excited to be in the role of being a character.
05:55You've got to get into the groove.
05:56That's how I'm going to go and go into the groove
05:59and go to the groove of that feeling and make it more
06:03into the groove.
06:05I think that's how it's always used to use
06:08like this.
06:13This is my favorite rap song.
06:17Everything's in the groove.
06:21I think the song has become a bit different
06:26and the rap song has become a bit different
06:28and our style has become a bit different
06:31and one person has become different
06:34so I think I'm going to get the energy to get started
06:39and I think I've used it hard to use
06:42I'm very grateful for you
06:46I also used rap as well as a song.
06:52Now I am going to move on to John Woo and Ji-hun.
06:56You know, even in emotional songs, the one thing that we always notice is that the energy on stage is like really good.
07:05I want to know, I mean, how do you keep the spark alive on stage even when the song, the tempo, the rhythm in itself is slow?
07:12Oh, yes. In my opinion, when we sing a concert, we sing various songs.
07:22But there are a lot of parts of the song, so I'm going to sing a different song.
07:32So I'm going to sing a song and sing a song rather than sing a song.
07:38And I think that's important to sing a song rather than sing a song rather than sing a song rather than sing a song rather than sing a song.
07:52I also like to ask him to elaborate how does he take care of his voice because I know it's precious, it's treasure for treasure makers because his voice is really that good.
08:01I don't like it as a bad thing.
08:05I do it sometimes as well.
08:08I try to drink some water and eat it as well.
08:09And I'll drink some pot of propolis and eat it as well.
08:13Gotta drink some vegetables or something.
08:16Otherwise, I'll try to drink your voice when I beat the song.
08:18I'm trying not to use it when I play the song.
08:24I'll never have a good time.
08:25Please keep doing that.
08:26We love your voice.
08:27Haha thank you.
08:29Well, I think that I can be able to communicate the lyrics, the vibe and the atmosphere
08:40and to the feel of the feelings I can be able to express the feelings of feeling and where it is.
08:54Okay. My next question now is to Jay-yuk, Joon-kyu and Jung-hwan.
08:59In the recording room, I want to know, do you focus more on the emotion side of the song or just on the technique?
09:08Because both are important, but I see that Treasure has, again, y'all ace, y'all have a fine balance between the two.
09:14But what is your preference?
09:16I'm personally, I'm going to be a little bit more than 50 by 50, but I'm going to focus on the technique.
09:29Okay.
09:31If you're playing with the emotions, you can feel well with the technique.
09:38I'm going to be playing with the emotions first and I'm going to play the music.
09:42Yes, I also want to make the feel of the performance of the song.
09:52I'm going to try to do the best of my feelings and my style.
10:02Right, this is the first time I'm hearing Jongwon's voice in today's interview.
10:08I have to say, I really enjoy all of y'all.
10:12The music that you all produce is amazing.
10:15Now, my next question is to the genius of writing according to me, Asahi and Boyang.
10:22I want to know from y'all, because it's been five years now, right?
10:25Like of y'all producing music, doing music,
10:28what is that one thing that you have learned about yourself
10:32or you've discovered about yourself in the last few years?
10:34I'm going to show you a new one.
10:37I'm trying to show you a new one.
10:41I'm trying to show you a new one.
10:45But this time, the fans feel...

14:26Do-yung, too.
14:29Do-yung, best dancer.
14:31Yeah, yeah, yeah.
14:32Absolutely, I mean, your choreography is amazing.
14:35So now, if some members joined the variety show, who would you nominate and why?
14:40What kind of variety show you hope it would be, and who would you nominate?
14:43One, two, three!
14:45Jaung! Jaung!

14:49Do-yung!
14:50Do-yung!
14:51Juhun, do-yung!
14:52Oh, I was recently a program, but I was doing an idea for some of my ideas.
15:03I was thinking that my brain brain was fast, so it was really interesting.
15:09So I saw the new part of Juhun's new video.
15:12Last couple of questions, which song from the third mini album, Love Pulse, do you think would be a great song for a karaoke or a sing-along at a concert that you're hosting?
15:24Wow, really. I think everything is good.
15:34I just predicted this. I literally thought he's going to say everything and he just said everything.
15:40I think this is a song which everyone is going to love because everyone is taking on everything.
15:45Okay, now I hope this is a different answer. If an Indian listener, I mean, this is the first song of Treasure that they are perhaps going to listen to, which track would you hope it is and why?
15:57Now Forever라는 곡을 추천드리겠습니다.
16:00Now Forever's kind of indie pop-up-up-like genre.
16:04First of all, I think you'll be able to get into the next 곡 in the next one.
16:10So you'd like to hear it.
16:12Okay, so I'm going to give you song versus song. You have to pick your favorite song between the two. It's going to be rapid, so I have five different rounds for you.
16:21rounds for you okay okay so boy versus going crazy
16:27okay so boy or darati boy or darati i'm a i'm a boy yes you're a boy
16:39boy or everything
