A few hours ago, the new K-Pop boy group named NEXZ debuted their first song titled ‘Ride the Vibe‘ under JYP, feeling pressure to be better than Stray Kids, as they are the predecessors of the worldwide renowned group who recently debuted at the Met Gala.
Due to the great success of Stray Kids in the previous years, after the release of their first single, the new boy group, inspired by the audition program ‘Nizi Project‘ Season 2 by JYP Entertainment and Sony Music in 2023, has shown their nervousness.
To express this, the member Yu confessed, “We feel the pressure of being the first boy group to debut in six years since Stray Kids“. However, he continued to excite K-Pop fans by saying, “We plan to turn that pressure into a sense of responsibility“.
#YU: I'll be honest, we feel the pressure of being the hoobae boy band of Stray Kids sunbae-nim; to be JYP Entertainment's rookie boy band. But we hope to change that pressure to a sense of responsibility and work hard as we make our debut.#NEXZ #넥스지 #ネクスジ @NEXZ_official pic.twitter.com/3cOsDk2yvO
