NEXZ has obtained their first trophy. NEXZ won first place on MBC MUSIC's 'SHOW CHAMPION' broadcast on the 6th in Korea. They reached the top with their recently released 2nd single title track 'Mmchk'. When called as the first place winner, NEXZ showed a look of disbelief and cried. Since it was a great achievement with a new song they prepared with all their heart, it was an even more valuable result. The members, who first dedicated the achievement of first place to their reliable musical partners, the fans, said, 'We think of this as a present from everyone, and we will continue to work hard. Thank you for always supporting us and for all the love. We will strive to be a group that continues to be loved.' The feelings they couldn't express were revealed in a live stream on their official YouTube channel after the live broadcast. The members said, 'NEXZ has become number one. We did it, congratulations. Actually, we still don't feel it. It doesn't seem real. Even now, it feels strange.' They added, 'We actually cried. We thought a moment like this would come for us. It was truly wonderful, an unforgettable memory. We counted down before becoming number one, but it felt completely like slow motion. At that moment, I think we were really nervous. It felt like time was flowing slowly just then. The fans in front of us also had very stiff expressions. It seemed everyone’s tension rose all at once.' They also said, 'It's shocking. I'm happy, and right now it feels very strange. It's hard to express my feelings in words. What is certain is that I will never forget this sensation, this emotion. It's really strange.' They expressed joy at the fans who cheered and showed support, singing and holding up signs saying 'Congratulations NEXZ on first place.' They thought, 'It’s real.' They had to express their thoughts on stage about being number one, but they didn't know how to start.
