[Interview] TEEN TOP “Noona•Aunt fans, you won’t be handcuffed even if you like TEEN TOP”



“Handcuff-idols, boyfriend-idols, holiday-idols, younger-idols…” there are many ways to describe TEEN TOP. Recently with the variety of activities with ‘Crazy’, TEEN TOP has earned a new nickname. They are the ‘in-trend idols’. Teaming up with hitmaker Brave Brothers, the easy listening and addictive melody of ‘Crazy’, has pushed TEEN TOP to their peak in the industry.

Despite their busy schedule, the TEEN TOP members did not lose their smiles. When asked if they can feel their great popularity the members replied humbly “We can’t really feel it. Because we don’t really get the opportunity to go out so we don’t know” “It’s really good that we get to meet more fans at public broadcasts. We feel very happy when more fans come to watch our performances”

Niel thanked the fans for the overwhelming love “We thought that ‘Crazy’ shows the charms unique to TEEN TOP. We’ve received even more love than we’ve expected so thank you”

In fact Brave Brothers who wrote ‘Crazy’ believed that from the beginning it’ll be a song that will win 1st place, as he gave his best.

Brave Brothers showed his determination “I wouldn’t have given TEEN TOP this song if it won’t win 1st place” “With ‘Crazy’ it’ll win TEEN TOP the 1st place”

The members couldn’t contain their laughter when they heard this “Even during the production, he said he spent alot of effort on it and he gave many advices. He said he’ll help us stand on top. With his confidence in ‘Crazy’, we gained confidence as well

TEEN TOP who captured the hearts of noonas with ‘No More Perfume On You’, especially to the noona and aunt fans, they are the representative ‘younger idols’ When they first debuted, they were in their sweet 10s, they like TEEN TOP but it almost seems against the law, but they could not stop their love so the noonas created the agonizing gag. It is the gag where if you like TEEN TOP, you’ll have to be put on the handcuffs


With regards to the term ‘showing off the silver handcuffs’, the TEEN TOP members let out a laughter “I think we can feel our popularity now”, L.Joe laughed “It’ll be great if you like us without feeling guilty and as much as you want. There’s no need to put on handcuffs”

We asked TEEN TOP who has been at their peak in the music industry with ‘Crazy’ about their promise to the public when they win 1st place. But the members waved their hands and said “When we made the public promise we only managed to be 1st place contenders. I think there’s a jinx but we all have a promise made in our hearts. When we win 1st place we’ll execute it”

“If you give TEEN TOP lots of love, we can have longer activities and we don’t even need breaks and we’ll be back immediately. Because we only comeback during the holidays we have the nickname of ‘holiday-idols’. We’ll work hard so that we can meet our fans more frequently in the future”
