When asked about the most memorable moment in his 10 years of activities as SEVENTEEN, he said, 'The concert held in Goyang in October, 'SEVENTEEN (RIGHT HERE) WORLD TOUR IN GOYANG,' is the most memorable. In this concert, we added songs to the setlist that we had never shown before. Therefore, I had a strong desire to show the performance to CARAT (the name of our fans) as soon as possible.' When asked if he feels any difficulties while working as a veteran in the industry, he replied, 'I think all singers feel this way, but the preparation period before going on stage is difficult every time. I cannot cut corners. The people who come to see the stage make time for us with expectations. Naturally, I must create the stage in the best condition. Thinking about that, I cannot take anything lightly.' Currently, there are many juniors who dream of becoming singers after seeing SEVENTEEN. He conveyed to his juniors, 'I want to tell them to take care of not just their appearance but also their inner self. To be active healthily for a long time, one must really work hard on physical management, and if it becomes difficult or if you are suffering alone in that process, I hope you can get help from those around you. Only by becoming a healthy adult both physically and mentally can dreams come true.' The gravure and interview capturing Joshua's new side are published in the December issue of 'ARENA HOMME+'. - SEVENTEEN will release their 4th single 'Expiration Date' in Japan on November 27! The distribution of the title track has started. - SEVENTEEN received a plaque of gratitude from the Los Angeles City Council for 'building a bridge to connect the world.'
