On May 3, the members of iKON attended a press conference celebrating the release of their 4th mini album, 'Flashback'.
On this day, member Bobby was asked how his attitude has changed after getting married and welcoming his first child. Bobby answered, "I think of my identity as iKON's Bobby and as the person Kim Ji Won as separate. As a member of iKON and as artist Bobby, nothing has changed. I am giving my best effort without holding anything back."
Next, iKON also discussed their dramatic style change with their retro pop genre title track, "But You". Donghyuk said, "It is a new genre that we are trying out for the first time, so we also prepared new things for the MV and even in our recording style. Please look at it as iKON taking on a new challenge." Bobby also added on, "This album contains tracks that are definitely reminiscent of iKON's old style, but also other genres that are new. We believe that the fans will understand the meaning behind 'Flashback' by listening to the album. iKON will continue to strive to become a group that seeks new styles and analyzes trends."
Meanwhile, iKON's 4th mini album contains a total of 6 tracks. The album will be out later today on May 3 at 6 PM KST, alongside the full MV for the group's title track "But You".
Bobby has worked hard as an artist even after having his own family. He even made a song for iKON in their new album which is for the first time since he wasn't confident about being able to cater to the musicality of the whole group. I am honestly proud and will support iKON till whenever.
And looking forward to "But You" release today at 6pm kst!!!
