Group NAZE revealed their daily dorm life alongside their debut.

 

NAZE recently met with Hanteo News at Whosfan Studio and shared stories about their dorm life together as seven members. All seven members currently live together in one house. They also always gather together for meals.

 

YOUNKI shared, “I think the happiest and most enjoyable moments are when all seven of us eat together,” adding, “We all love eating, so there’s no one who dislikes mealtime.” As for the most recent meal they all had together, they chose salad. KIMKUN explained, “We all ate salad together because we’re dieting and taking care of ourselves,” while DOHYEO nodded and added, “Salad together.”

 

The roommate arrangements were also revealed. TURN and KAISEI share a room, ATO and DOHYEO share a room, KIMKUN and YOUNKI share a room, while YUYA uses a room on his own. Although both KAISEI and TURN are from overseas, they still speak Korean even inside their room. TURN laughed and said, “I think that’s something really interesting.”

 

There were also plenty of roommate stories shared. TURN said about KAISEI, “His sleeping schedule is inconsistent, but I’m thankful that he always uses the room quietly out of respect for me,” before joking, “The only thing I wish he would fix is that when he eats snacks at night, the smell and sound make me want to eat with him too.” This made everyone laugh. KAISEI explained, “On days when I don’t eat much during the day, I think I still have room left, so I feel like it’s okay to eat.” TURN still acknowledged, “If I say I’m tired and ask him to turn off the lights, he turns them off right away. I think he’s a really kind older brother.”

 

ATO shared a similar concern. He said, “Two nights ago, DOHYEO and I talked about how we want to decorate our room in the future,” adding, “There’s nothing really uncomfortable, but DOHYEO sometimes suddenly eats snacks at night too, and the sound is like ASMR, which makes me hungry.” TURN chimed in from the side saying, “Exactly.” Youngest member DOHYEO said he had absolutely no complaints about the older members. DOHYEO calmly replied, “I really don’t think I have any,” making everyone laugh.

 

Regarding dorm life, YOUNKI said, “Everyone is younger than me, so I feel really comfortable,” adding, “They’re all kind and good younger members, so I feel happy just watching them, and even seeing them makes me feel at ease.” YUYA started by saying there was a problem in the room, then jokingly added, “If you look under the bed, there are a lot of problems,” drawing laughter on set.

 

NAZE also has experience with pre-debut activities in Japan. DOHYEO explained, “By releasing albums and performing live in Japan first, it felt like we were able to experience in advance the things we would have to do after debuting in Korea.” TURN added, “Since we already experienced things like camera angles and performing on stage, I think we’ll be able to act a little more professionally and comfortably in Korea.”

 

The members also spoke about their team structure, which operates without a leader and is guided equally by all seven members. ATO explained, “Since all seven members each have very distinct personalities, we’re a team that creates synergy when we come together as one,” adding, “Rather than assigning separate positions, we work together naturally while fulfilling our individual roles.”

 

They also expressed hopes for winning Rookie of the Year awards. TURN shared, “I think I’d be really happy if we received a rookie award,” adding, “We’re working hard so that each member can individually show their charms, and we’ll show NAZE’s unique charm as well.” He confidently continued, “We’ll show an all-rounder side where we can present many different things.”

 

NAZE’s 1st mini album ‘NAZE’ will be released today at 6 PM through various music platforms.
