NCHIVE
NCHIVE, who are embarking on their first European tour, shared their joy at being in Europe during a press conference.
Formed in April 2024 under the label AUBEMOON STUDIO, NCHIVE is a six-member group consisting of HA.L, E.AN, KANGSAN, YUCHAN, JUYOUNG, and N. One year after their debut, the members embarked on an international tour, marking a new milestone in their career.
Invited by MMS ENTERTAINMENT, KSTATION TV attended an exclusive press conference at the Korean Cultural Center in Paris. This was a unique opportunity to speak with the members about the beginning of their European tour.
After a concert in Germany and Belgium, the members expressed their joy at finally performing in Paris. N confessed that he had always wanted to be a singer and had dreamed of the French capital from a very young age. Interviewed by KSTATION TV about this, the members shared what they would like to experience in Paris.
“Since it was my first time in Paris, I wanted to see everything, but the Eiffel Tower was my top priority. Luckily, I received a special gift yesterday: I got to see it from a boat. It was a wonderful and precious memory.” – YUCHAN
“There were actually lots of things I wanted to try, but my top priorities were bouillabaisse and wine. I really want to try wine!“ – KANGSAN
“As YUCHAN mentioned earlier, we had the chance to visit iconic Parisian landmarks yesterday. It was magnificent. And also, I’ve always wanted to see the SAVE signs in Paris.” – E.AN
When discussing activities they would like to do abroad, we also asked the group about their desire to collaborate with international artists. This question sparked the members’ enthusiasm, and they shared their ideal collaborations with us.
“I don’t know if it’s possible, since they’re all very famous, but BRUNO MARS, JUSTIN BIEBER, CHRIS BROWN, and BTS… We’ll do our best to be the perfect match for the next artist.” – KANGSAN
“Personally, I’ve been looking for French songs while preparing for the European stage. There’s a French singer named AMIR, and his voice is so beautiful that I listen to him on repeat. I hope we’ll have the opportunity to collaborate during our next trip to France.” – HA.L
During their trip to Europe, what the members were most looking forward to was reuniting with SAVE (fandom name). They explained that the incredible energy of the audience allowed them to take the stage with even more enthusiasm, especially as their third European concert approached. They confessed that before arriving in Europe, they were apprehensive, having rarely met their European fans, but their expectations were far exceeded, as the large and enthusiastic SAVE fans were there, bringing them immense joy on stage.
“I was so happy to be able to come to Europe with the members, to experience all these things, and to perform. I am so grateful for the support of all our fans.” – JUYOUNG
Unforgettable memories with their fans rekindled memories of their younger selves. When interviewed by reporters, the members took a moment to reflect on the advice they would give their younger selves. N hopes his younger self will one day grow up to be cool enough to return to Paris and Europe often. YUCHAN, with humor and tenderness, admits that he used to be exactly like him and simply apologizes. KANGSAN affirms he has no regrets and wishes his younger self continued growth into someone wonderful. For HA.L, the key is to move forward slowly but surely: if he acts for himself and trusts in time, he will achieve his dreams—including one day exploring Europe with the other members. Finally, JUYOUNG recalls the words he heard as a child: anything is possible if you pursue what you love, so he encourages his younger self to never give up on his dreams.
“I hope you grow up to be a cool person who can come to Paris and Europe often.” – N
When asked about their role models, they explained that they admire various singers, groups, and artists, while emphasizing that NCHIVE is first and foremost built on its own identity. The group cites ENHYPEN as a common reference, not as a model to imitate, but as a source of inspiration to improve every day. Some members added that they deeply respect their elders in the industry, who motivate and inspire them.
Finally, the members wanted to send a warm message to their French fans: “We will try to convey all our love and support to our French fans. We love you so much.” They also thanked the fans for their kindness and presence, even during rehearsals, and promised to return soon: “We will be back next time, so don’t forget us and remember us. We will always sing for you.“
This first European tour marks a significant milestone for NCHIVE, strengthening their bonds with fans worldwide. Between unforgettable memories and upcoming projects, the band demonstrates how much the passion and energy of their fans fuel their creativity. With promises of a comeback and ever-more ambitious dreams, NCHIVE is establishing itself as a group to watch very closely.
Finally, while on their European tour, NCHIVE released a new single, “Love in christmas“, on November 17th.
