STAYC conveyed their impressions after completing their first solo American tour. The fashion magazine "Harper's BAZAAR" recently released a photo shoot of STAYC, who have been actively active after finishing their American tour. This photo shoot was for the January issue, and the 6 members approached the shoot with a professional attitude, receiving praise from the staff. In an interview conducted with the photo shoot, Yoon talked about her impressions of the tour, saying, "We did a rookies tour last year, but this time it was a solo tour, so I was worried and prepared in various ways," and answered, "I was worried if there would be a lot of audience, but the reaction of the fans in the city where we performed for the first time was good and my heart was full. I want to go again soon." When asked what kind of appearance they wanted to show in this tour, Jay answered, "I wanted to show a positive energy," and said, "But songs like 'RUN2U' and 'SO BAD' have a slightly different atmosphere from a positive appearance. I wanted to show diverse and healthy energy. Like the title of this live, 'TEENFRESH'." Siwoo, who attracted attention on SNS with a dignified speech on stage, showed a smile and said, "I studied English hard in my childhood, but I didn't think it would be so useful," and revealed, "When you go to that country, you accept the culture of that country, so I gained confidence and was able to speak freely." STAYC will release a new album "LIT" in Japan and expand their Asian tour to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and other places in January and February next year.
