PENTAGON Shares Their Close Relationship and Goals After Winning 1st on Music Show

Tuesday, March 16, 2021

Multi-talented boy group PENTAGON returns with 'DO or NOT', the title track from their 11th mini album 'LOVE or TAKE'. Unlike previous concept, this time the album is surrounded by the theme of love - lively and colourful. From the teasers to concept images, the boys show their fresh and enthralling side which is different from what they have presented before. Although JINHO and HUI are currently taking their enlistment hiatus, but you can still hear Hui's voice for this comeback as he took part in filming the music video of the title track and also album production prior to his military enlistment last month. 

Ahead of their release yesterday evening, PENTAGON sat down with the press and talked about their album and music at the online media showcase.

When being asked about promoting as 7 member for the first time after Hui's enlistment, WOOSEOK said, "Honestly I still feel kinda awkward without HUI by our side. I'm still getting used to it and I'll try to make myself feel more comfortable through this promotion." YEOONE added "Through this promotion, I hope the public including HUI and JINHO will feel at ease when they see our performances and think we're too good and there's nothing to be worried of. We will work harder so that HUI and JINHO will be proud of us.

Talked about how they build teamwork again with members' having enlistment hiatus, SHINWON replied, "The moments we could really feel their absence is during team meetings and practices. We used to feel that the practice room is very crowded when we practiced, but now there's only seven of us, somewhat it feels empty. Since the eldest member and the leader are not with us right now so we feel like lacking a shoulder to lean on. But this won't make us weak. We'll create a stronger bond and assure that when they returned, the group is still strong." The members even showed us the team rings they were wearing at the showcase, proving their close relationship with one another. From here, we know PENTAGON is growing stronger as team!

When being asked about the memorable moments when producing the albums, WOOSEOK said, "I lost slept for two months to work on the title track and the B-sides. The rest of the members dedicated so much too. When I was most tired, the members will come to the studio and i'll turn on a random beat and we'll do ciphers together. Each of us then had 10 to 15minutes to write the lyrics and record it. This really helped to release stress." YANAN added, "I think the bright and refreshing concept of 'DO or NOT' is perfect for us. We're able to show each of our charms through our performances. It's our 11th mini album, so 110 points."

Lastly, talking about their goal after winning 1st on music show. SHINWON commented, "We actually have many goals. This is our fifth year together, but our goal is to keep going for a long time with the same refreshing energy that makes five years seem like no time at all."
