[Trans] 150709 News1 Interview
▲ HipHop Unit Wonwoo: I'm sloth Wonwoo. I'm slow like a sloth when I talk or do something, so I got it as a nickname. HipHop unit (members) personally write their (part) lyrics. I have the lowest (tone) voice among HipHop unit members, so my low-tone rap is my characteristic. I'm from Kyungnam, Changwon so I thought I didn't have a posibility to become a celebrity. But I accidentally got the opportunity and went for audition. I use that opportunity well and became a singer now. Mingyu: When I was on 2nd year of middle school - I accidentally got casted when I was walking home from school. I didn't have a dream as a singer, and never thought of it and started (training) just for trying but I enjoy being on the stage and working together with the members is fun. I'm dexterous, and I like fixing broken things. Before debut, I often style members' hair. S.Coups: The name S.Coups is made from - 'S' from my real name, Seungcheol and 'Coups' from coup d'état. In HipHop unit, I have a strong and fierce rap style so I usually become a front-runner (the one who starts the song). I got casted on the street, and I was a backdancer for After School. I used to think "how does it feel like when I perform on the stage with my own song and choreography" and then I met my members. Vernon: I'm HipHop unit's 4-dimensional rapper, Vernon. I have a groovy-style when I rap. I got casted on the subway (station) in front of my school, and I developed my dream as a singer during trainee period. I wanted to give up when I couldn't dance during dance lesson but eventually I really want to become a singer. When I first enter (pledis) I practice singing and not rap, but because I like HipHop I changed my path - as a rapper. I went to audition for 'SMTM4' and it was really fierce. After practicing on basement practice room, meeting a real rappers is sure feel different.
