SF9 has reached its 10th debut anniversary and revealed its goal, saying, “We are even looking ahead to our 60th anniversary.” SF9 recently held a showcase to commemorate the release of its second full album, “TENACITY,” at Cube Convention Center in Mapo District, Seoul, and spoke about how they felt upon reaching their 10th debut anniversary. They debuted in October 2016 with “Feeling Sensation,” and this year marks their 10th debut anniversary. At the showcase that day, the members smiled and said, “It feels strange, and we can only be grateful. We feel very good.” They continued, “Thanks to everyone who has loved and cared for us for 10 years, we were able to reach our 10th anniversary. We are looking ahead to our 60th anniversary,” and said, “We want to convey that we are such a group with that much willpower and perseverance.” They also said, “It is an honor that we have been able to continue idol activities for 10 years, becoming someone’s dream,” and expressed, “We are grateful to the members who have walked with us for 10 years and to the fans.” The members said, “We were surprised that the 10th anniversary came so quickly, but we want to prepare a dinner show for our 60th anniversary, hold a showcase, and meet many people,” and revealed, “It is difficult for one person alone to continue one profession for 10 years. We are grateful to the company, our families, and the fans.” Members including Yoo Taeyang were unable to participate in this activity because they are currently serving in the military. Youngbin said, “They are not here, but the members sent messages through KakaoTalk. They said, ‘We are watching closely.’ After all, communication is not easy. One message can become a great source of strength, but even if there is no contact, we are cheering for them in our hearts, and we hope that each of them can overcome things well in their own place,” showing the team’s unity. SF9’s second full album, “TENACITY,” contains the story of looking back on the past upon reaching their 10th debut anniversary and then stepping forward again toward the future.
