SEVENTEEN's Mingyu has been featured on the cover of Arena Homme Plus!
During the interview following his photo shoot, Mingyu discussed his recent journey to Italy for the tvN variety show " NANA TOUR with SEVENTEEN ." He reflected, “Viewers might think, ‘Since there are cameras, it must have been somewhat staged.’ But that wasn’t the case at all. It truly felt like a real vacation. I even felt a bit embarrassed watching ‘ NANA TOUR .’ I wondered if I had shown too much of myself. I think that’s how comfortable we were, like we were on a real vacation.”
When questioned about the primary motivation behind SEVENTEEN 's ability to release a new album annually, Mingyu pointed to the joy he experiences while performing on stage. He expressed, “My favorite time is when I’m on stage, and I think it’s probably the same for other singers.”
He elaborated further, stating, “To stand on stage, you need a new album. Of course, the process of working on and practicing new songs is tough. It’s challenging every time. But the joy of being on stage after all that hard work is many times greater, and now that I know the joy of showing my fans a new side of myself, it’s even more fun.”
When questioned about his aspirations for the next decade, Mingyu responded with confidence and enthusiasm, saying, “I’ll be 38 [by Korean reckoning] in 10 years, right? Personally, I hope people think, ‘Mingyu has become cooler’ and ‘He’s more manly.’ Musically, I hope to have established my own style to some extent. When someone mentions ‘Mingyu,’ I think it would be perfect if a specific genre, music video, or stage performance came to mind first.”
Mingyu's complete pictorial and interview are featured in the March edition of Arena Homme Plus.
