D.N.A YOUNG JAE
The fourth up, let’s investigate the identity of agent Youngjae! I like singing and I’m Youngjae who is in charge of being the lead vocalist in B.A.P. The first American music I came across was the title song ‘LOVE’ from Musiq Soulchild’s first album. Because of that one song, I got into American music and still enjoy listening to it to this day. I really like the anime “One Piece” and whenever I have time, I make sure to watch it! Even if I don’t get enough sleep, I have this divine talent of acting like I’m “not tired.” However, my tonic even washes away this divine talent! Our showcase that we held recently has been my biggest tonic during my days of busy schedules and lack of sleep. When we first stood on stage, we were at standby at a height of 4m above the stage and the lights were shut off then. In between the curtains, I was able to see 3,000 light sticks glow before the curtains and at that moment, I got goose bumps all over my body. The happiness then still gives me strength to this day which helps me forget my struggles despite promoting, to not lose my roots, and that I have to keep heading forward in knowing that this is just half of the beginning. The investigation of agent Youngjae’s identity is finished. We’ll work hard, yes sir!


MATO# RABBIT
The UP&DOWN rabbit that’s dressed in a clean suit. The overall color for my bunny is yellow and although the eyes are dazed~ the bunny is dressed down neatly in a suit. I wish that the bunny character would be a bunny that can belt out a charming note when singing. Because my blood type is AB, my emotions are really inconsistent so the bunny character would be full of playfulness, no? When it’s sad, it would be slouched and when it’s happy, it would hop up because it’s so excited~ I think a bunny character like that is most fitting with me. However, the most important thing is! Beside that bunny is a bunny friend like Daehyun who is good at taking jokes to be with it. Daehyun is the type of guy who’s really laid back in that he even takes all of my severe jokes when I’m feeling really happy.


What I’m in charge of at the dorm. I’m in charge of organizing in our team. Whenever there’s stuff sprawled out or the dorm is just messy in general, I’m in charge of cleaning it up and making everything even again. Sixty seconds is plenty to fix neatly all the papers, crackers, and remote sprawled out on the table. I’m pretty much a vacuum robot~

B.A.P# FIRST SINGLE ALBUM
Q: “Warrior is ____.” Describe the song in one phrase with character.
YJ: “Warrior is a song that makes me worried!” Normally, dry rehearsals take place early in the morning and my part is right after Yongguk hyung’s part and I tend to worry a lot over the condition of my voice since my part is really high pitched. The moment I open my eyes in the morning, I think, “Can I sing well today?!” I worry first and foremost about how I can maintain my voice since it’s important to do so, so I try not to use my voice as much as I can and before I go to bed, I either hang up a wet towel (*T/N: Hanging a wet towel in the room can help act as a humidifier) or I try to make my body in its most sensitive state so I can know the status of my voice right away.


Q: If there was a moment that triggered you to become a singer or discover your musical talent, what was it and how did you come across it?
YJ: It was when I was a second year in junior high and I sang with my friends for the talent show on our school trip. When I went on stage, our peers would clap and respond to our singing. That feeling exhilarated me and since then, I think I liked singing. I wasn’t the type to be born with a talent for singing nor did I discover my musical talent alone. It just came naturally in how I achieved my dreams of becoming a singer with my efforts.


Q: What’s one thing you can take pride in regarding how much you’ve matured in comparison to when you were preparing for B.A.P’s debut?
YJ: I can pretend to be less tired despite being tired. If one of the members shows signs of tiredness among the six, then everyone becomes tired. So that’s why when everyone’s tired, I smile brightly and create a fun atmosphere. If you look at it from that perspective, not only did I mature but my dongsengs did as well.

D.N.A. DAE HYUN
Third up is in finding out the identity of agent Daehyun! I was from Busan, but moved to Seoul and I am the lead vocalist Jung Daehyun of B.A.P. I’m very strong about my appetite so I like trying all kinds of food and enjoying their tastes. Thankfully though, I’m not the type to gain it all back. I don’t really know how to respond when fans give me gifts lately, so I just turn red. I think I’m the generic blood type A that can’t really express their feelings broadly. That’s why I’ve been taking interest lately in the “Becoming closer with fans” project. I want to approach fans a bit closer like friends and the solution Himchan hyung knows well, so I’m hoping to learn from him. Discovering the identity of agent Daehyun has been complete; we’ll work hard, yes sir!


MATO# RABBIT
A bunny with crazy baby fat and a sense of humor beyond what a musician would have. I hope that I can become a bunny of looks that appears cute with the thick baby fat under my eyes. Next, I want the bunny to hold a microphone is the next thing. And I hope to either hang a guitar around him or place him in front of a piano; I think that will be a character that reflects me perfectly. Sometimes, I tend to say nonsensical jokes and that’s why this bunny often appears awkward, but I hope it can be a humorous bunny that surpasses the humor of a comedian.

The mission I’m in charge of in the dorm. The magnae must be in so much difficulty. The veranda is cold, so…I’m in charge of (cleaning up) the restroom and I like taking out the trash, so I think that’s comfortable for me. Trash lying around catches my eye when I get home, so I discovered my neat personality when I started living in a dorm as I noticed these things in comparison to before when I never really noticed.

B.A.P# FIRST SINGLE ALBUM
Q: If you can fill in the blank: “Warrior is ______.” Fill in the blank as your introduction for your song in one word.
DH: “warrior is a marathon.” If I can explain a little further in detail, I’ll say that it’s the biggest favor returned to me in my life. A marathon is 42,195km in length and like the feeling of a long marathon, I prepared and practiced for this album. Now, like a runner standing at the starting point, the song “Warrior” holds the meaning in marking the starting point of B.A.P.


Q: Do you have a part in the title song “Warrior” in which you can relate to the most?
DH: In my part at the end, there’s a line that says “He won’t be hidden under the sky and even if he hides, he’ll kneel before the truth.” Whenever I sing that part, I feel this bliss in that no matter how much one hides, the truth will always be revealed in the end and I’m happy that I can deliver a message that holds hope.


Q: Was there a period of time that motivated you provoking your dreams of becoming a singer and during what period of time did you figure your talents in music?
DH: When I was in middle school, I gained a habit of practicing singing at the karaoke after school. Coincidentally, I happened to go to a karaoke with my relatives during the holidays and they complimented me in saying, “You can be a singer!” Since then, I’ve been recommended to attend a music academy and raised my dreams of becoming a singer then on.


Q: Tell us a fun episode in the dorm.
DH: I don’t sleep in, so I wake up early and when I come out of the shower after having woken up the members, I hear these strange alien sounds. The members tend to have severe sleeping habits in that when they talk in their sleep, it’s as if they’re speaking to one another but out of all of them, magnae Zelo seems to be really tired as he does it often. Whenever he does, I’d tell him, “Zelo~ You have to wake up” and he’d start saying random things to me in his sleep as a response. Sometimes, the hyungs tease him in telling him, “Zelo~ It’s already dinner! We have to go out” and he’ll respond as, “It’s already dinner? Alright.” Sometimes, he’ll run out to the front door if we tell him his parents are here. Whatever we tell him in his sleepy state, he’ll believe us 100% (laughs).
