Question:
Could you please introduce yourself to our readers?
E:U: Hello, I’m EVERGLOW’s E:U.
Sihyeon: Hello, I’m EVERGLOW’s SIHYEON.
Mia: Hello, I’m EVERGLOW’s MIA.
Onda: Hello, I’m EVERGLOW’s ONDA.
Aisha: Hello, I’m EVERGLOW’s AISHA.

Question:
You had a comeback last summer, could explain your comeback song and its message?
E:U: Our title song is "SLAY," which contains messages to all the girls who are losing themselves within the framework set by the world to move forward confidently
Question:
How did you as individuals and a team change in the year leading up to your last comeback?
Sihyeon: I think I learned a lot from the U.S. tour and Europe tour by growing as a team and experiencing a lot of things
Question:
Your music has been centered around self-empowerment in the past but is there a concept you’d like to try in the future?
Mia: I really like the strong and intense concept, but I hope we can do a refreshing and cool concept like SISTAR sunbaenim's songs
Onda: We haven't done a season song yet! I want to try a concept that has a sense of season, like a pink concept that feels like spring, a cool concept that can be done in summer, or a Christmas song that can only be done in winter!
After having already triumphed through two successful tours in the United States, fans couldn’t wait for EVERGLOW to make their much-awaited debut in Europe. Naturally, KCE delved into the highs and lows that undoubtedly marked their touring journey.
Question:
It’s your first European tour, what are you looking forward to the most?
Aisha: Since we live so far away, I was most excited to meet FOREVER in Europe in person, talk to you, and enjoy the performance.
Question:
Is there a song in particular you look forward to performing in front of FOREVER?
Yiren: We did our best since it's our first time meeting FOREVER in Europe! I hope that you like the unit performances that we prepared!
Question:
What are some challenges you faced while preparing for your tour?
E:U: Since EVERGLOW is a performance group, we have to show both dance and song, but I think it's the hardest thing to maintain your stamina for about two hours of performance.
Question:
Do you have rituals before going on stage?
Mia: There are many intense dances, so I make sure to stretch. I tend to get nervous a lot, so I often remind myself not to get too tense.
Question:
What’s one thing you need with you when you’re on tour?
Onda: I have a must-have item through this U.S. and Europe tour! It's a tissue-type face towel! My face gets easily because I put on heavy stage makeup every other day during the tour, but it's nice to end the day with a soft face towel so that it doesn't irritate me when I remove my makeup!!
No interview would be complete without tapping into EVERGLOW's vision for 2024 and eliciting words of encouragement for their devoted fanbase.
Question:
Do you have a current favorite song you’d like to recommend to our readers?
Aisha: It's changed these days, but I really like “back together” because I can't forget making eye contact and interacting with FOREVER during the performance.
Question:
What are your goals and dreams for 2024?
Yiren: I want to create better performances and good music in 2024, and I hope there will be more opportunities to meet FOREVER all over the world! I want to see FOREVER often and communicate with you
Question:
Can you tell us some last words for your fans, FOREVER
E:U: I'm always so thankful and reassured that we have FOREVER’s support and love for EVERGLOW. I'll work hard to become a shining artist for you
Sihyeon: Thank you so much for supporting us from all over the world. FOREVER is the driving force behind our growth. We will never forget our gratitude and work harder to become EVERGLOW. We love you♥️
