Seventeen 'An Ode' Thanks To – Seungkwan

Hello. This is Seungkwan.

When I write thanks to, what kind of words should I write, will my heart got delivered perfectly, while thinking about it, I think I always hard time starting it.

The process of preparing this 3rd full album is giving me time to look back by myself, it was a time that give me a chance to feel each other's preciousness once again. 13 people meeting by chance like this and get to know each other, practicing 'till death, achieved our dreams, sweating on the stage together,

Even if tired we can be tired together

Even if sad we can be sad together

Even if happy we can be happy together

Sometimes when I crumbled

Because there are the members, I can get ahold

Until our conflict too

We can reminisce it while smiling

We gained fans who loves Seventeen

We gained people who works for Seventeen without knowing day and night

The thing that Seventeen can be proud calling ourselves as Seventeen is very precious and I'm thankful for it.

It was truly a moment where I couldn't passed it all by myself

I am so relieved to realise this preciousness before it disappears.

Our Seventeen members, (I am) sorry, proud of you, thank you, and love you.

Even if the world only knows and remember the results,

Carats are always together in all of our process.

And in the future too we will be together. Smiling, crying, got hurt together, and giving us happiness,

I am so thankful for that alone.

I have nothing to wish for anymore.

Once again,

Thank you for everyone who works hard for Seventeen's 3rd album.

Stern advice, excessive compliment, those words helped me to grow up. In the past, now, and in the future, I love you. Kim Yeonsoo vice president, the vice president who have a serious aura from the first time I see you.. the hope of wanting to have our appearance on your handphone case as soon as possible now finally achieved. You have worked hard. Love pyongpyong.

Reallyreally veryveryvery thankful, our Pledis family from all departments, hyung(s) and noona(s) sometimes when I see you I wonder how can you work like this for an artist, when I see your passionate side to the point I feel surprised I think I really have the time to look back at myself. I make my thanks to and expressed my thankfulness. I will take care of you more. Even if you are tired and having a hard time, don't forget about the fact that Seungkwan is cheering on you! Pledis let's excite, go!!

And the staffs who are working very hard when we do schedule together, hair and make up until outfit, the one who made us looks cool Yuseong teacher, Seoah teacher, Minsoo hyung, Chaeyeon noona (and) lots of hyung and noona, thank you always. In the future too please take a good care of us!

And this world tour.. you worked really hard. Pledis, Shownote, Live Nation, Companyz So-young director, sound system, lighting, stage, special effects, interpreters, bodyguards, catering.. all the staffs who are there on every city's concert venue, really thank you very much. Really thank you very much. Thanks to you it became tour that I can remember forever. And for us from Seventeen units' music video until full group's, the one who make fantasy work VM Project!!

Since before becoming a trainee when I'm dreaming of being a singer, from those who ask me to put their name on the thanks to once I make my debut until those friends who even if you can't contact me but still cheering on me from far away, thank you all and I miss you. To the fellow friends who are working as a singer in this young age and working really hard too let's cheer up!!

Thank you teachers❤️

The one and only my family

Mom dad, Jin-seol noona, So-jeong noona

Thank you for looking after the trouble maker maknae prettily and raising me well, I love you. Me who get cries easily now has become a 20 years old adult and is working hard on being a singer. I probably can't held it if I don't have my family who waited and trusted me right? I will make my family really happy. Back then I thought making lots of money is a happiness but these days I think it's not my happiness. Just us gathering and talking about old stories while eating home made food, those simple times for me is a happiness. In the future too let's be healthy ❤️❤️ I love you

Lastly our Carats~~

Our Carats who made a mere somebody me into a valuable person, really thank you. I don't know when will the day where I can be perfect come but me who is lacking right now, for everyone who loves me than anyone else, won't take this love for granted, be humble, and will diligently sing.

Please give lot of love to this 2nd full album.

Up until now, it's Seungkwan's long thanks to.

[Personality] Boo Seungkwan, Your Job Is

"From now the person who speak is a fool~" is the words that boy group Seventeen's member Boo Seungkwan said to the members on MBC 'Omniscient Interfering View'. The cast said "It's like military quarter", "It's truly chaotic", and to the extent that the production crew transformed the term "kindergarten*" to "Se-kindergarten**" to express the chaotic and noisy music show waiting room that is turning quiet with his single word(,) reminding of kindergarten nap time. Assembling the members who want to go to the restroom or want to brush their teeth and leading them together with the manager is also Boo Seungkwan's duty. Him as the most reliable members picked by the manager and as (the manager) pointed he excellently organize a situation, affectionate and sincere to the extent that it is trustable even if someone said he is a kindergarten teacher.

He also seems like a natural entertainer with an excellent sense of humor. In reality he received rookie awards at 2018 MBC 'Entertainment Awards'. But in all year end music awards that were held at the similar time (he) received main prize (bonsang), being on a spectacular stage in domestic and overseas, his side that he showed as an entertainer came from a special history that Seventeen made. Boo Seungkwan since pre-debut hosted a live broadcast to communicate with fans through AfreecaTV, among the fans together with Hoshi and Dokyeom 'BooSeokSoon(a combined nickname from Boo Seungkwan, Dokyeom's real name Lee Seokmin, Hoshi's real name Kwon Soonyoung)' as much as they made a separate humor category(,) from that time he was recognized as a witty person. He who appeared on MBC 'Radio Star'(,) Yoon Jongshin's song titled 'Wi-fi' through the edited part he excellently mimicked the feeling of voice got cutted and bring up laughter but this is possible because he has the capability as a main vocal. In 'Omniscient Interfering View' Boo Seungkwan can respond to the entertainer senior Lee Youngja or Song Eunyi's words wittily because he can empathize with the manager's difficulty on leading Seventeen. A singer named Seventeen, entertainer, or Seventeen's manager, until a character like kindergarten teacher, he skillfully pulled off any kind of role and works to the point until he made us curious about what his job is.

Like most of the people, he looks perfect but he is not perfect. Instead of mistaken Woozi's part as chorus part and lowering the microphone leisurely, hesitated with an embarrassed expression he hears complains from the members who burst into laughter***, in a talk show that have a lot of celebrities appeared on(,) in order to find the moment to cut himself in he constantly look for the time. He looks like a young person who always deftly give a laughter but the truth is most of the personal talent that he has is a result of practicing for a long time. The side of leading his members in an orderly manner is also the fruit responsibility that made from long trainee life. Seventeen's music producer Bumzu in one of his song producing suddenly said to Boo Seungkwan to work on the chorus and said this. "I didn't touch it at all. It's all Seungkwan's work.('Idol Maker')" Seventeen's other music producer Woozi as well about 'HOME' that Boo Seungkwan participated in the making at album release showcase explained that "Seungkwan's emotional part became a lot of help." Struggling in case if he can't show everything that he prepared, sometimes when it doesn't go like what he expected(,) Boo Seungkwan's taken aback appearance on the contrary become something that brings a laughter or become a matter of concern to the fans. But on the chance that is given to himself and the others give him their trust(,) he does good in it. As much as we are curious about Boo Seungkwan's job he does a variety kind of jobs. But now to him it doesn't seems like important about what he does. And we are just looking forward to see how well he is going to be.

**세치원 = Se-kindergarten (Seventeen+kindergarten)

10 Asia Interview [My Name] – Seungkwan

My name is Seungkwan, full name is Boo Seungkwan. Using husband Boo(夫), winning Seung(勝), generous Kwan(寬). Generosity of a winner? My dad gave this name to me. I'm working on to be generous. I like giving energy to other people.

Was born on 16th January 1998 as a Jeju Island resident. Sometimes using Jeju dialect too. If I am forced to write I can't do it* . Haha. Jeju Island is a pleasant environment, a place of healing. Myself too doesn't get that feeling. There is a charm of hometown.

Since elementary school grade 1 I sing a lot while joining children's singing competition in school. Because I am in Jeju Island to the point I couldn't think to be a singer, it was a dream stage. Luckily I got casted through internet video. It was a video of me coming on a singing contest but because I sang my art teacher's favorite song (the teacher) recorded the video. Because (the teacher) want to see other people's reaction we uploaded it on internet. The casting offer came through letter but at first I thought it was a scam. Haha. That time the song that I sang is Big Mama 'Forsake'.

I am Seventeen's mood maker. If the mood became down I go to the members. I made them laugh by mimicking someone or doing funny personal talent. For example, mimicking our CEO? Haha. When my condition is not good is because I'm hungry. I'm the type to maintain my condition aside from when I'm hungry. I need to cut my high tension.

My role model is Kim Junsu. Even if he surpassed 10 years of debut his appearance of doing musical and solo promotion is cool. Succeeding first as a team and then I want to show my personal capability.

Between our members we really want to be a long running singers. We want to break the stereotype of large member group. We want to promote in various fields. Let's not be conceited and let's be humble!

*He wrote 잘못하겠수다, form of 잘못하겠다 in Jeju dialect.
