Chan (Raw SKZ cut below)
Q: Which team has charms that you would like to take for yourselves?
Chan: We felt that we could learn a lot from everyone's performances, but if we had to choose one team, we would have to pick BTOB. They looked like they were really passionate and enjoying their performances. (scr)
I was excited and trembling just by standing on the same stage with the people I respect, but I was happy to see the stage right in front of me. Stray Kids will also show a big impact and show a good look to stays around the world.
Q: what led to your motive and resolution to join kingdom?
Chan: us stray kids have a lot of genuine feelings for performing. we really want to show our skills and passion for performing. and we think we'll create good synergy when performing with sunbaes and artists we really respect (scr)
Q:What are Skz most competitive, weapons, and attractive points?
Chan: Skz thinks that it is a big competitive advantage to write, compose, and arrange themselves during the stage preparation process, and the weapon of self-production seems to make Skz' stage look like skz scr
(Soompi translated this part as their self-production +unique concept)
