Henry and Hwasa have sat down with ELLE Korea for a pictorial and interview!
Having recently starred together in the music travel variety show “Moving Voices,” the two showcased natural chemistry throughout the shoot.
In an interview following the photo shoot, they shared insights into their friendship. Hwasa said, “Our first meeting was when we appeared together on ‘Home Alone’ (‘I Live Alone’) a few years ago. Meeting again this time, I was reminded of the value of human connections. I especially came to truly respect Henry’s passion for music.”
Henry also commented, “At first, I was worried that talking seriously about music with Hwasa might feel a bit awkward. However, it turned out to be great as we were able to actively and comfortably share our opinions with each other.”
Regarding the impromptu busking performances, Henry stated, “I’ve always had the desire to perform, and since I enjoy meeting people, I’m naturally drawn to spontaneous events.”
Hwasa, who took on the first overseas busking challenge through the program, reflected, “At some point, I think I started focusing more on performance rather than singing as a singer. Through this experience, I realized how much I enjoy singing and rediscovered the passion, which I had forgotten.”
As for his musical direction going forward, Henry remarked, “Until now, I’ve focused on short-term goals like performances and content for shows, but I want to immerse myself in album production now. I’m curious about what kind of results I’ll get when I focus on my own music.”
Hwasa, who has been actively promoting her second mini album this year, also shared her goals, stating, “Next year, I want to meet more fans as a solo artist, including through overseas performances. It would be great if I could release singles that capture my feelings and situations in the moment, much like writing in a diary.”
Henry and Hwasa’s full pictorial and interview are available in the January issue of ELLE Korea.
