+интервью
TEEN TOP: Chunji, L.Joe
Qn: You guys seem like you have lots of experience with club parties, seeing how you did during the photoshoot?
Chunji: To be honest, although we love to dance on stage, we’re still not used to club dancing. Personally, though I like fanciful club parties, I enjoy having barbeque parties with my friends more.
L.Joe: I don’t go to clubs often. I just liked the atmosphere at the photoshoot earlier. As compared to dancing at a party, I’m the type who would observe the people around me.
Qn: Besides practising singing and dancing, what do you guys do most of the time?
Chunji: Since our trainee days, we’ve huddled together to have meals, slept together, maybe that’s why we’re able to live so comfortably and openly with one another now. We’re always talking about food when we gather. The dishes that we’re in love with right now are spicy chicken feet and stir-fried cuttlefish.
L.Joe: We talk about TV programmes, movies and fool around like kids. Occasionally, we’ll compete and bet with one another while playing “League of Legend”
Qn: What’s the thing you want most these days?
L.Joe: I hope Christmas comes quickly. There isn’t a present I want in particular but I’m looking forward to the snow. Hope it’ll be a white Christmas this year!
Qn: What words make you feel happy after hearing it?
Chunji: As compared to “you’re good looking”, I’d like to hear “you’re charming”. I’ll never get tired of hearing that.
L.Joe: I like to hear “fight on!” the most. No matter when I hear it, it’s an encouragement to me.
Qn: How would you remember the year of 2013?
Chunji: I spent the year on singing practice; I thought I was going to die. I’ve heard compliments that my skills have improved and I’m really happy about it but I’ll become an even better vocal next year.
L.Joe: I was slightly cooler this year than in 2012. Personally, I feel that be it personality or appearance, I’m much cooler than last year.

TEEN TOP: Changjo, Niel
Qn: You guys had such diverse expressions at the photoshoot earlier?
Changjo: I know that means that we’ve to do better. (laughs)
Niel: We just did as we were told… Really thankful that it turned out well.
Qn: What was the most memorable thing that happened this year?
Niel: I started the year as a 20 year old (Korean age) so it felt really new to me. Recently, I’ve been feeling that I should act more maturely.
Changjo: Our first concert held in May. Because of the fans who love us, we’re able to stand on such a big stage. Ricky was really nervous when he sang his solo, maybe because he was so touched, he cried the moment the performance ended. I could never forget that.
Qn: What’s the most memorable present you’ve received?
Niel: Fans’ unconditional support and love is the biggest present to us.
Changjo: I was crazy over games in elementary school. I still keep the game toy I received as Christmas present
Qn: What are the other members’ strengths you hope to have?
Changjo: I’m still far from being perfect so I really hope to have all the members’ strengths. If I really have to pick one, I’m really envious of Niel’s refreshing high-pitched vocals.
Niel: We didn’t plan this ahead, but it seems like we ended picking each other. (laughs) I hope I can dance as well as Changjo. He has excellent dance skills and yet he’s really humble, which is why I’ve so much to learn from him.
Qn: How do you plan to spend Christmas?
Changjo: It’s still a secret. If I were to give a slight hint, it seems like we’ll be spending Christmas with the fans. Of course after that, we’ll be spending time with our families.
Niel: If I have time, rather than going for a party, I’d rather go on a trip. I still remember going to London alone during our last vacation. If I have the time, I want to go on a trip again. It seems impossible for me to walk on the streets or go to a club in Korea. Just by looking at photos of Maldives makes me feel happy; I really hope that I can go there and take a rest.
TEEN TOP: C.A.P, Ricky
Qn: You guys never left the monitor screen after taking the photos.
C.A.P: Because I’m interested in the clothes.
Ricky: I wanted to see how I looked. I also wanted to see the photos of the other members
Qn: Have you ever thought of what kind of person you want to become?
C.A.P: I want to be a fun person. I’ve a quiet personality which is why I’ve never heard stuff like that about me. It’s not that I really want to be funny but sometimes I want to raise the mood too.
Ricky: I want to be an unchanging person. I want to be someone who protects that same spot, never changing.
Qn: When in the day do you feel the most comfortable?
C.A.P: When I’m done with the schedule, back in the dormitory, washed up and just lying there. I’m happy I don’t have to do anything then.
Ricky: When I’m practising. In the early days, I would work hard at practices as asked to. Recently, I feel that my body’s becoming stiff and losing track of things. This is why I work hard to return to the basic at every practice.
Qn: What was the most memorable thing that happened this year?
C.A.P: Personally, I tried out a lot of things I wanted to do. I started studying \ how to write songs and lyrics; it has been fun producing songs. I’m sure there would be a day when we could perform a song that I wrote?
Ricky: It was definitely the concert we had to commemorate our 3rd anniversary. I didn’t feel that it was work but rather a party together with the Teen Top fans.
Qn: How far do you want to go as Teen Top?
C.A.P: It’s something we started so we should see it till the end.
Ricky: Till we reach further growth and even more maturity
Qn: Have you made plans for the new year?
C.A.P: Rather than finding something new to do, I’d rather spend more time to make myself better at the things I’ve already started on.
Ricky: I hope to keep in mind “our initial goal”. I’m going to be 20 years old (Korean age) so I hope I’ll spend more personal time.
