Finally, they told me about their enthusiasm for their Japan debut announced for next spring and the episode of their first single event in Japan.



What Are You Enthusiastic For The Japan Debut?

- It's a long-awaited debut!

YUTA:  First of all, I think that the fact that we were able to make our debut in Korea helped us to make our debut in Japan. Since we had the first Showcase Tour (Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka), I hope that we can repay you for your kindness. We want to have more fun with you all.


TAEYONG: We have already taken part in several events in Japan, and we have stood on a big stage in the big stage, so I thought, " I want to come to Japan again!" We will finally debut in Japan but I also think that the opportunities to meet the Japanese fans will increase more than ever. I think it will be much more meaningful to me because I think it will be more of an opportunity for me to share with you on the stage. I'm excited and nervous, but we want to give you our bright energy.

ー Are you (Yuta) able to debut in your own country? Do you have any other thoughts?

YUTA: When we do activities in Japan, we want to show that there is some difference between the other Korean groups and NCT 127 because there is a Japanese member named Yuta.


 It Was Hard to Pronounce Japanese During the First Recording,


Along with the release of their Japanese debut, a Japanese version of the audio version of "Limitless" which was released in South Korea earlier this year, was released.

 


TAEYONG: The pronunciation of "tsu" was hard So, even if a I recorded a good take, I couldn't do that one pronunciation, "tsu", so I had to record it again.

JAEHYUN: The practiced our pronunciation really hard and then Yuta tested us, then we recorded. Yuta gave us a lot of advice. 

TAEYONG: That's the strong point of our group! 😉😂😂

ー Who was teacher Yuta's best student? 😂😂😂


YUTA: Everyone did their best but I think this time it was
Jaehyun and Taeyong... 😂😂😂 Even though I was tired of getting asked so many questions from the members, 😂😂😂 it was nice to give the song "Limitless" to you with perfection.


 ー You guys filmed the music video for "Limitless". Can you tell me some of the highlights?

TAEIL: It was really cool! The MV was full of nice places, I think the MV was filled with great highlights.

WINWIN: There was a jump that I did in a place in the MV and I think that it was filmed really well. That scene was hard; I did a lot of takes. 😂😂😂

TAEIL: In that way, there are scenes that show each member's charm. Even when we watch it ourselves, we said, "We did well here. This part was good." So, I think that if the fans watch the MV a few times, they'll experience our many charms. We made a really great video. 

The Events in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka were held in One Day.




On Nov. 4th, they held their first solo event The Introduction "connect". First, they made their live debut presentation in Tokyo, then separated into three groups and headed to Nagoya (Taeil, Yuta, Haechan), Osaka (Johnny, Jaehyun, Mark), Fukuoka (Taeyong, Doyoung, Winwin). They enjoyed interacting with fans.

ー Can you tell me about your impression of the event?

JAEHYUN: I was very glad to have the opportunity to meet all of our fans up close. All of the members felt the same way, but I really appreciate that you treated us warmly and cheered us up. I always want to meet all of you like this.

ーWere there any memorable fans in Osaka?
MARK: I think it's embarrassing for Jaehyun to say this with his own mouth, so I'll say it myself. 😂😂😂 In the event, there was this segment where we answered questions from the fans. Then, when the fan asked Jaehyun a question, she started crying while holding the microphone.  So, while waiting, I wondered, "What question did she want to ask?"  but she said that she loved Jaehyun too much so she can't get a boyfriend. At that time, that image was very pure and fresh, so it left a lasting impression.


ー So, how was the Fukuoka team?

TAEYONG: That was the first time we, NCT 127, had been to Fukuoka.

DOYOUNG: This time, only three of us went but we promised that next time we would go together. I am looking forward to seeing the fans on the next showcase tour and I'm sure the fans are excited too! I want to see them soon.
TAEYONG: The Japanese fans are all so cute. We felt we should do something for them and care for them. I hope to see all of you soon on the stage!


ー And the Nagoya team?

HAECHAN:  I went to Nagoya for the first time in my life, but for the first time I got to go on a bullet train; I also heard that it's popular to eat lunch in the Shinkansen, and I also ate the lunch boxes Yuta recommended to me. I met a lot of fans in Nagoya and had fun at the event. It was a great memory.


ー By the way, what kind of lunch box did you recommend to Haechan?


YUTA: I recommended him the chicken one but he didn't want to eat it. he was eating the scallops one after all. 😂😂😂

HAECHAN: Yuta was eating a Japanese beef lunchbox, I got a bite and it was very delicious, too. 😂😂😂

The Secret to Make Dreams Come True



NCT 127 will fulfill their dream of making a debut as an artist and will make their dream come true once they come to Japan. They give the Modelpress readers tips for making dreams come true.


JOHNNY: In terms of making dreams come true, I think you have to be strong-willed. Even if someone says that it won't come true, the possibility will increase if you think you can do it. Your dreams will come true someday if you try with confidence. 


MARK: There was a saying in a movie I watched, but it was something close to my heart.
What you do now, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow should be something "no one has ever done". Nobody knows what's right or wrong so I think that if there's something you want to do in the future, it's important to believe you can do it. You believe in what you can't see. I think that is the secret to make your dreams come true.

YUTA: The most important thing,  I think is to have the courage to take a step forward. I was embarrassed when I audition for S. M. Ent. But since I made it in,  I became part of NCT 127. I think it's really hard to take a step forward but there is definitely something to gain from it. Even if you fail, I think it's important to start with failure to learn from it and to start working harder.
