'Sequence 01: Curiosity'
Beyond a fragmented image, an expansion of inner layers built up
Discovering the most perfect frame at the intersection of all senses, presenting a new standard for K-pop
[Identity] AND2BLE: Becoming clearer as it builds up
AND2BLE is a 5-member rookie boy group consisting of Zhang Hao, Yoo Seung-eon, Ricky, Kim Gyu-bin, and Han Yu-jin. Each member with distinct personalities and charms comes together to create powerful synergy. The group, with all members possessing both visuals and skills, is an 'all-rounder group' that has garnered global fans' expectations even before their official debut.
The group name AND2BLE is a compound word of 'AND' and 'DOUBLE,' meaning to expand 'selfhood' by overlapping various inner aspects, not just a fragmented appearance. It embodies the group's direction to form a unique image by combining each member's individuality and identity, and to establish this as a brand.
[1st Drop] 'Sequence 01: Curiosity': A record of instinctive curiosity
From the moment of birth, humans constantly explore the world, and at the beginning of it all is always the instinctive feeling of 'curiosity.' The subtle attraction felt between the familiar and the unfamiliar, unexplainable wonder, and the impulse to cross that boundary are the most fundamental driving forces that lead to new worlds.
'Sequence 01: Curiosity' starts from this point. AND2BLE, standing at the starting line, becomes 'curiosity' itself, continuously drawing attention.
This album is the prelude to AND2BLE's journey ahead, dealing with 'curiosity,' the most primal emotion humans first encounter. Through three keywords—attraction, gaze, and fear—it sensuously portrays the moments of excitement and wonder toward an unfamiliar world, and the subtle inner changes of the members that occur during this process.
The sensation that becomes more appealing the stranger it is, a heterodox beauty born by twisting the familiar (Unnatural ver.), questions beginning from the self facing oneself (Gazed ver.), and a new rhythm created by impulses that crack the repeated daily routine and trivial deviations (Break ver.). These three different perspectives ultimately converge into one emotion, 'curiosity,' completing AND2BLE's beginning in a three-dimensional way.
[Essential] Curious: A fateful attraction beyond boundaries
'Sequence 01: Curiosity' contains a total of 5 songs, including the title track 'Curious.' The title track 'Curious' is a song that expresses confidence and ambition to fearlessly face changes brought about by dangerous curiosity at the moment of a new beginning. It is an energetic EDM track combining synth-pop and future house elements, creating a strong impression with a blend of house beats and thick synth bass.
Along with this, there's the sensuous and witty mood of the sub-title track 'Aura,' 'Sugar Rush' expressing unstoppable attraction, 'Bed' where members' vocal charms can be felt, and the fan song 'Happy &' delicately portraying the excitement and meaning of the moment they came together. All are enough to feel AND2BLE's refined musical color.
The members' names are also noticeable throughout the album credits. Zhang Hao and Ricky participated in writing lyrics for the title track 'Curious,' and Ricky also co-wrote 'Aura.' Additionally, Zhang Hao and Kim Gyu-bin were credited for writing lyrics for 'Happy &,' demonstrating their excellent musical capabilities from their debut album.
[Mise-en-Scène] Movement & Visual: Aesthetics created with light and lines
The performance of the title track 'Curious' delivers overwhelming visual impact with hip and trendy movements in a dark atmosphere. Double bass pop sounds placed between intense beats add musical points, and the control of powerful choreography and weighty steps maximizes immersion in the performance. This choreography was supported by Kasper, who created dances for various K-pop artists such as EXO's 'Ko Ko Bop,' Taemin's 'Guilty,' Baekhyun's 'Bambi,' and SHINee's 'Don't Call Me.'
The music video for the title track visualizes AND2BLE's 'multi-layered' aspects, which finally awaken through someone's gaze, rather than a single image. The curious glances poured upon the members are replaced with the symbolic device of 'light,' vividly revealing their hidden colorful facets one by one. In particular, the intricate contrast and experimental composition created by light clearly imprint AND2BLE's presence.
[Archive] Continuum: The prelude to infinite expansion
AND2BLE's first sequence is more than a simple beginning; it is the prelude to endless expansion in search of 'selfhood.' These records, starting from the most instinctive curiosity, will gather to form AND2BLE's unique archive that becomes clearer over time.
