        Congratulations on the release of your new album. It has been a year since your last comeback with The Rose and two years since your last solo album. How do you feel about being back? What have you been up to other than working on the album?

        I have been spending some quality time with my family, finally had time after about 9 years of being away so it was heartwarming. Coming back and releasing music feels right. It feels like I am in my natural state.

        When writing lyrics or composing, we heard you are using the memos you've gathered in a memo app. We are curious to know about the memos that gave you inspiration for the new song 'LAZY'. What were there about? Also, when and how would you like people to listen to 'LAZY'?

        For ‘Lazy’ rather than a memo it was more of how I was feeling at the time. My days were ‘Fancy Fancy’. It was telling myself that I wanted to be lazy and because that was not possible at the time I wrote about it to at least feel lazy while writing the song. I don’t mind however people would like to listen to ‘Lazy’. It is for them to decide and that really is the beauty of music.

         

        For fans who have been waiting for his new release, WooSung recorded a verse of 'Lazy'. Listen to the vocal clip of 'Lazy' sung by WooSung below.

        Because of COVID-19, you can't tour anymore, and fans are missing you. Can you say a few words to Black Rose who are waiting for The Rose and WooSung?

        1-2 years is nothing compared to the road we are walking together. Thank you for always supporting us and being patient. You won’t have to wait much longer. We Rose You <3
