[INTERVIEW] The Seoul Story Meets AB6IX At ‘SALUTE’ Press Conference

Warner Music Asia scheduled an online press conference on November 24 for AB6IX to promote their third EP SALUTE.

The quartet comprising Jeon Woong, Kim Donghyun, Park Woojin and Lee Daehwi, answered various questions such as what inspired them while writing the songs on their latest EP.

“For me when it comes to emotions, rather than packaging it beautifully, I prefer to express it realistically,” Donghyun said about his inspiration while composing R&B track MAYBE.

Daehwi shared he imagined the four of them behind a marching band with a huge army behind them while he was writing the title track SALUTE. With a vision so grand, it is no wonder SALUTE is filled with AB6IX’s strong fighting spirit!

The members shared many other interesting moments while working on their EP during the interview. But one thing’s for sure, their love towards ABNEW has intensified even more for this comeback.

With the global pandemic hitting the industry hard, AB6IX said they feel empty while performing on stage without the soaring cheers from fans. This is the second time the group has promoted during the pandemic and we can only imagine how difficult it must be to not meet with fans.

They shared they want to perform SALUTE and THE ANSWER the most when they perform live for fans again as they have been unable to do so thus far. The group promoted THE ANSWER back in July with their second EP VIVID.

We’re already anticipating AB6IX’s next album and can’t wait to see what else they have in store for us in 2021! Meanwhile, check out the full interview with AB6IX below for their third EP SALUTE 🙂
