Exciting Story of S.Coups & Mingyu: Behind the Stage CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY

"The name of this concert is CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY. We call it a "live party", not just a concert, because we want everyone who comes to enjoy and have fun together. We also imagine this concert feeling like a festival," said Mingyu of SEVENTEEN about his unit's concert tour.

"It may sound abstract, but I want to say 'happy feelings'. I hope Carats who watch go home with only exciting and happy memories. So I try to let go of feelings of worry, sadness, or fear, and focus on preparing the concert with only happy feelings, and I want to go through the next concert that way as well," explained S.Coups when asked about his preparations for the concert.

"As I said earlier, it feels like a party or a festival. When we were making the album, we often imagined how this song would perform on stage and the fans' reactions later. The atmosphere that used to only exist in our heads finally feels real in this concert. The energy is exciting, free, and honestly, we really enjoyed performing," shared Mingyu about the concept of this duo concert.

Regarding his habits before going on stage, S.Coups said, "I usually take a deep breath first, then pray for the concert to go smoothly. After that, my mind becomes calmer and I can focus on performing."

If Mingyu is a bit different, "If I’m a bit unique, it’s making sure my jacket is symmetrical left and right. I don’t know why, but when it’s neat, I feel calmer, so I always check before going on stage."

For S.Coups, perfume is a must-have item to bring backstage. For Mingyu, his must-haves are drinking water and tissues.

S.Coups chose the most memorable part of their concert, which is, "The opening of 'Fiesta'. Before the song starts, there’s the appearance of the grand characters Kute and Mante, and I think it fits perfectly with the concert concept."

"I also choose the opening. Kute and Mante are characters from our first mini album 'HYPE VIBES', aliens that come to Earth to fill energy through music. It feels like the elements of the album come to life in the real world. Besides that, I also like the stage of the closing song 'Earth' because it feels exactly as I imagined during production," Mingyu explained about his favorite part of this concert.

The main focus now is to complete this live party tour successfully and smoothly. After the tour is over, we want to remain active through music, concerts, and various activities so that CxM stays in people's memories. So moving forward, please continue to give your attention and support, okay?" S.Coups clearly stated about future plans.
