TVXQ recently had an interview with the “Financial Time” where they talked about a variety of stuff from their new song “Catch Me” to previous things that the band has done.
“For our latest promotions, we couldn’t use a song similar to ‘Why‘ like we did last time. We wanted to be a little more friendly this time, so we worked hard to use an easy melody that wouldn’t hinder our usual strength. Next year will be our 10th anniversary, so PD Yoo Young Jin was very kind to us. He told us that he wanted us to think about the general public at large. The people that used to listen to our music in elementary school are now in their 20′s. This time around, we wanted to have something that could even appeal to the elementary school students. Our choreography was created in a way that even children could follow it as well,” Yunho replied when asked about the younger generation of K-Pop listeners not familiar with TVXQ.
“The younger generation doesn’t know about the the 1st generation idols that we grew up watching. I want to become a singer who can appeal across the generations, and I want to be an example to the other idols,” Changmin added on.
And on promoting as a duo instead of a 5 member group like they had in the past, Changmin said that it was strange to sing a two-person song after promoting for about 5 years. They also had to perform 25-30 songs in their Japanese tour which made them worried but after realizing they could do it, they gained confidence.
Yunho added that they can’t say that there wasn’t any hard elements to their song since it had it’s “own color” but some parts like the chorus was a lot softer.
