ATEEZ
The group ATEEZ from KQ ENTERTAINEMENT is making its expected comeback this Monday, September 13 with the album “ZERO: FEVER Part.3″.
Composed of members HONGJOONG, SEONGHWA, YUNHO, YEOSANG, SAN, MINGI, WOOYOUNG and JONGHO, the group returns to the front of the stage with a new album, carried by the title songs “Eternal sunshine” and “Deja vu“. The showcase, held exclusively online on YouTube, begins with the broadcast of a teaser before the group introduces themselves, all dressed in black and white for a sober and classy look. The leader HONGJOONG begins by expressing the group’s reservations about this comeback, the members having long agreed on the turn that this new album should take following the KINGDOM program, and since their last comeback, dating back to there. at six months. However, the members wanted to take on new challenges, and trained hard for it. The hardest part for them was coming back with titles that they are proud of, titles that live up to the love they receive from their fans.
After this introduction, a teaser is presented, and the group performs their first title: “Deja vu” with sensual dance. This comeback represents a big challenge for ATEEZ as the previous album has accumulated more than 500,000 sales, and has been ranked in the Billboard World Digital Song Sale Chart on several occasions. The group hopes to reach and even exceed this record. Once this first performance is completed, the clip associated with “Deja vu” is broadcast. We find the boys dancing in the rain, bringing an extra sexy touch. Then, the album medley allows us to discover a preview of each of the six tracks present in the album and immediately after that, the clip for “Eternal sunshine” is released once the performance of the boys is done. While the first title song was dark to emphasize the masculinity of the members, this one is bubbly and colorful, like a sweet goodbye to the summer season.
“We are constantly looking to improve ourselves to make our fans happy, who know so well how to bring us happiness.“
HONGJOONG
“Eternal sunshine” tells of the everlasting longing for youth of the members singing the youthful beauty resembling the heat of the sun, wishing to engrave this memory in their minds. As for “Deja vu“, it tells the story of an indescribable thirst and desire for something unknown. The concepts are therefore radically different, while perfectly representing the musical imprint of the group, which returns on stage after these two energetic performances. They each present the other titles of “ZERO: FEVER Part.3“. “Eternal sunshine” opens the ball, followed by “Feeling like I do” which contains the message that in this world that cannot be complete alone, we can complete it together. Then, we rediscover “Deja vu“, then “Rocky”, inspired by the film “Rocky”, released in 1976 highlighting the determination to succeed as in the film. The penultimate track is “All about you” which allows members to reveal their feelings. The album ends with “Not too late” which contains a message of comfort according to which we end up finding the light at the end of our worries and our anxiety about an unknown future. It marks the end of the third album in the FEVER series, focused on hope and the future.
With the concept of this album being happiness and hope, the band tried new things by trying their hand at different genres, wondering what concepts the members hadn’t yet experienced. The boys thus hope that the songs composing this album will appeal to the fans. The group even ended up answering a question from KSTATION TV, expanding further on the meaning of the double title song for this comeback.
“The group wanted to put forward a sexy side of ATEEZ with “Deja vu”, because we suspected that the fans were looking forward to this kind of concept. So we stepped out of our comfort zone, realizing it wasn’t that easy.”
MINGI
To do this, they actively involved fans who responded to polls so the band got a better idea of what to do next. So, even if it was not easy, the group is confident in this comeback, because it was prepared with the members.
HONGJOONG adding:
“We always perform as if it was the last time, to give our all and enjoy until the end, because we do not know what is done tomorrow”

They then return to KINGDOM which has made them push their limits, and realize the musical genres they would like to experiment in their career. They also befriended many other artists, leaving with them warm memories and an unforgettable experience. YUNHO, SAN and JONGHO also thank the Pentatonic group, a cappella group, with whom they had the opportunity to collaborate.
The group then responds to a new question from KSTATION TV on the secret to their popularity around the world.
“For us it is above all about our determination to succeed and the efforts we make to achieve our dreams. We always try to be energetic on stage, regardless of our physical condition, and we do everything to look “cool” in front of the camera.”
HONGJOONG
They are thus grateful to all who identify their efforts, and become their fans thereafter.
The group ends up concluding this showcase, thanking the journalists, and its fans. The members hope that this new album will please, and promise to work hard for the rest of their careers.
The words of our reporter: “It is with the active participation of the fans that the group returns on stage with two title songs as different as they are complementary, songs that will undoubtedly delight fans!“
