They also asked, 'What kind of dishes do you like for Chuseok?' and recommended 'Songpyeon (rice cakes eaten during Chuseok),' smiling. Next, Han Seungwoo, who has been busy as a rising sports idol following the release of his 1st single 'SCENE' in June and participating in 'Shoot! - The Challenge of Legends 3,' conveyed, 'To all HAN_A (Han Seungwoo's fan name), I hope you eat a lot of delicious food, take a good rest, and spend happy times during this holiday.' He added, 'While resting, I hope you think a lot about me. I wish you a rich Chuseok while spending fun time with family you haven't seen in a while.' Following that, THE BOYZ, who recorded number one on the Oricon album chart with their 3rd full album 'Gibberish' and are holding a world tour 'ZENERATION II' in 15 cities across the Americas, Asia, and Europe, said, 'I hope you fill up your energy while watching the content we prepared. I think it's good to put worries aside for a bit and make a wish while looking at the beautiful full moon.' They also conveyed their wishes for a rich and happy Chuseok. Weeekly, who released their 6th mini-album 'Bliss' in July and are continuing their global growth with a tour in 9 cities, said, 'During Chuseok, I hope you forget your busy daily life a little, eat a lot of delicious holiday food, and spend happy times while thinking about us Weeekly.' They added, 'My wish is for Daily (Weeekly's fan name) to continue to live healthily and happily. Please be careful while returning home and have a comfortable and happy Chuseok.' Finally, The CrewOne, a project group of ATBO and JUST B, announced their participation in Mnet's 'Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE' starting on the 19th.
