OMEGA X has made a comeback after overcoming a controversy, returning after 1 year and 5 months. On the 7th, OMEGA X held a showcase at YES24 Live Hall in Gwangjin District, Seoul, to commemorate the release of their 3rd mini album "iykyk". Last year, they filed for a temporary restraining order against their former agency, accusing the representative of sexual harassment, verbal abuse, and physical assault. After mutually agreeing to terminate the contract, they signed an exclusive contract with the comprehensive IP production group IPQ in July this year, signaling a new beginning. Jehan said, "I'm happy to be able to come back as OMEGA X with the members after 1 year and 5 months. I think it's all thanks to the fans that we can now be active happily like this. With gratitude to the fans, we will work hard." Ye Chan added, "There was a time when we wondered if we would be able to stand on stage again as OMEGA X, so it feels like a miracle. We will show you a wonderful stage." OMEGA X's new album "iykyk" is an album that expresses the desire to break free from the gaze and standards of the thoughtless media and find small but clear happiness and freedom. They will showcase their diverse energy with not only the colors they have shown so far but also with expanded music. The members said about this album, "It consists of not only powerful performance songs we have shown before, but also trendy hip-hop and sensitive modern rock. The members have participated in the lyrics, composition, and arrangement of all the songs. We hope you look forward to OMEGA X's further growth." They also expressed their enthusiasm, saying, "This is another beginning for us, filled with modest but clear happiness. We will continue to run without giving up, so please look forward to the future." The title track "JUNK FOOD" is a trap genre hip-hop number. The lyrics incorporate OMEGA X's witty interpretation and harmonize with a powerful sound. They confidently stated about the title track, "Just like how junk food is addictive and unforgettable once you eat it, our title track is like junk food itself." The members who participated in the production of the song explained, "We decided on the theme of junk food ourselves and thought a lot about how to portray it. We wanted to convey the content that we are junk food, and many people become addicted to us and continue to search for us." Due to the dispute with their former agency, they were forced into a hiatus, and during the 1 year and 5 months, they each worked hard to improve their skills through rigorous practice. They had doubts about whether they could stand on stage again as OMEGA X, but they prepared with one dream in mind and united their hearts. They said, "Since a miraculous album has been completed, we think we can start anew with a refreshed feeling." They added, "We were able to change our hearts because we had trust in each other and confidence in what we can do. When we are together with the members, we also worked on producing the songs. We focused on music production, thinking that lyrics are our way of communication and can be conveyed through music." When asked about the secret to maintaining teamwork, the members answered, "Since there are 11 of us, there are often disagreements, but we surprisingly match well without even saying what we think, and we encourage each other while considering each other. If a problem arises, we resolve it through conversation. The members are all kind and have similar hobbies. We really have great chemistry." Finally, as their goal for this activity, they said, "We will be satisfied if we can show our own color to everyone. We would be grateful if you could listen to our music even once." They conveyed, "Although there were twists and turns, we never gave up, so when the opportunity came, we were able to seize it. The 11 of us came together, regained hope and dreams, and bore fruit. Our goal is for many people to get to know us, gain hope, and have the courage to never give up. I think that is the biggest goal." - [PHOTO] OMEGA X holds a showcase to commemorate the release of their 3rd mini album "iykyk" - OMEGA X to hold a Japanese promotion event for their 3rd mini album "iykyk" from December 16th...
