Part 1 We are Hip-Hoppers!

Cool: What is the most difficult thing when it comes to standing on stage? How do you overcome it?Suga: Everyone maintains a sincere attitude towards the stage so it can be quite stressful. But since the members are together there's not much anxiety.Rap Monster: When we first debuted, our excitement was actually greater than our nervousness. Afterwards we slowly gained experience, we had increasing thoughts and always wanted to do even better so we can only practice even more. Rest assured the kids are performing very well.

Cool: For the songs you have released so far, which one was the hardest?Rap Monster: No matter what, it's Danger (looks at the members)Suga: Really, whether it's the song itself or the dance, it really is the hardest work from us.J-Hope: Even though it has always been lives, this song always gives us the stress of "if we're not careful, something bad will happen"Jin: We really like this song so every time we're on stage, we all keep in mind that we treasure this so we work hard to complete itJ-Hope: Wow, that's a cool way of saying that (everyone claps for Jin)

When you came here this time, what was the most obvious change?J-Hope: Speaking of that, I was actually shocked when we came here for the first timeV: Wow! So many people!Rap Monster: We've never had promotions like this before but the first time we came to China, we saw a lot of people that know us and fans that welcomed us. We were super touched. Afterwards it was because of fansigns and award shows that now it's our 4th time in China. We see more and more supporters so we feel blessed.Suga: Also a bit flustered. We're about to have our concert in China so we must focus and practice harder so the fans that like us will be happy.

Cool: Are there any praises you long to hear?Suga: Of course it's "the singing is really good!" and these type of praises.
