[TVDaily] Huey of NEXZ expressed his feelings about participating in songwriting for their new single album. During the comeback showcase for 'Mmchk' held at Bluesquare in Yongsan, Seoul, he shared his experience of working with Japanese members on the lyrics. 'Mmchk' is the group's latest release, coming six months after their mini-album 'Beat-Boxer' released last October, and marks their return to the single album format after nearly two years. The album title 'Mmchk' is a neologism that underscores their unique presence, emphasizing the moments each member can choose and enjoy. It features three tracks, including the title song 'Mmchk' and its English counterpart 'HYPEMAN.' On this day, both Yuki and Huey discussed their songwriting process, noting that Yuki was inspired by specific lines from 'HYPEMAN.' Huey mentioned the challenges of writing lyrics in Korean as a Japanese member and emphasized the effort they put into crafting meaningful lyrics, even referencing the use of a dictionary. NEXZ's new album 'Mmchk' is set to be officially released at 6 PM.
The release of NEXZ's new album 'Mmchk' signifies a remarkable exploration of Korean language challenges in the global music scene. The majority of Japanese members navigating the complexities of writing lyrics in Korean illustrates not just a linguistic hurdle, but underscores an essential aspect of cultural exchange within the Korean entertainment industry. This approach is vital for expanding their international fanbase, and through it, NEXZ is constructing a multi-faceted and global identity. Moreover, the title 'Mmchk' symbolizes their uniqueness; it embodies a concept that resonates with fans across diverse genres and styles.
