‘Guys! Since you’re all doing so well right now, let’s never lose our focus and be modest and cool singers. I love you. Fighting! Let’s Fly B1A4!!
-banana jinyoung-
“My target since I was a trainee is to become a singer that doesn’t change even as time goes by and doesn’t forget the initial goal. If I feel myself changing, I will control it and catch my heart again. I want to be with my members forever like the way we were in the bginning. With that promise, I will work hard all the time, today and tomorrow.”
“There are still many lacking parts so I have been studying how I can have better gestures and expressions. My aim is to be able to show a more improved image each time I go on stage. I want to gain more weight and work on my figure too. I will also work hard on studying composing and become a well-rounded leader of B1A4. Woah~ If I want to do all this, it looks like I will have to work really hard?”
in order to win this year’s best rookie award, we will do our very best, so I hope everyone would love us, and look over us. -Jinyoung-
No matter where and when, I must be a modest and down-to-earth person.
