I adore
Hypebeast: Some time ago, you held the “Bunnies Camp” fan meeting, and the tickets were sold out in an instant. How did you feel when you saw such enthusiastic fans at the scene?
Haerin：Yes, the fans’ support and strong interest in us really surprised us. Really grateful to Bunnies (fan name) for bringing us such unforgettable moments and memories. At that time, we performed “ETA”, one of the three main songs of the new album, which brought surprises to our fans and made this meeting more meaningful.
Hypebeast: Continuing the popularity of the “Hypeboy” challenge last year, this time the “#ImSuperShy Challenge?” you exclusively launched on YouTube Shorts has also set off a super high popularity. For fans who want to participate in the “Super Shy” challenge, what advice do you have? ?
Danielle：To be honest, I don’t have any suggestions. I just wish people might be creative. You can dance to Super Shy any way you want. So far, there have been many short challenge videos uploaded, we have been watching and really like it. Just get creative, and we really encourage every fan to have fun with it, because that’s what this thing is all regarding.
Hypebeast: In the “New Jeans” video, we see you being reinvented as our generation’s Powerpuff Girls. What superpowers would you like your superhero characters to have?
Danielle：Well, my personal super power would be to heal animals and plants, and then I might communicate with them. I think this is so cool! But then I heard other members’ ideas, like Minji has a superpower that can make chocolate, and I thought “this is too random”, but now I think it’s pretty cool in retrospect. It would be cool if I might make some kind of food or something and share it.
Minji：Yes, in the MV, I chose the superpower that can create chocolate infinitely. But if I might choose other superpowers… how should I explain it? Probably, just one touch and the room can be cleaned, haha.
other members:Cleaning superpowers? Hahaha I died laughing. What a very useful superpower.
Hypebeast: You have produced MVs for each new song, expressing different concepts through each visual effect, how do you feel regarding this?
Hyein：Our new album “Get Up” has a total of six singles, each with its own unique story and concept. So if you pay attention to all the different stories and elements while listening to the song, I believe our fans will never get bored. It was the same when we first heard regarding the project. Unique music videos and performances, let us explore different music genres and our unique sound. I think hearing all the different tracks will definitely hit the fans.

Hanni：I personally also think that when we first saw the songs and the direction they were going, we were very curious regarding how different it would be from our previous songs. I think Bunnies will be very surprised by this. We’re really looking forward to how everyone reacts to our new song.
