Baekho was asked what he did today and he said he was at a scheduled activity, and he said it's a secret what he did today

He brought Bumzu with him today to talk about the album creation process for "The Nocturne" :)
#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho he said he decided to go with "night" as the theme because he felt like there was a lot to talk about.

He said the song that took the longest was "I'm in Trouble" and the shortest was a tie between "Shooting Star" and "Must"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said the lyrics that he has the most affection for is "사계절의 어느 날이든 밤이 찾아오면 이별이 믿기지조차 않아요" (No matter the season we're in, whenever night falls, I just can't believe that we've parted). He said 이별 could mean either "parting" and 이 별 (This star)

#Baekho's favorite lyrics in "I'm in Trouble" is "비밀을 만들고 싶어졌어 (I want to make secrets)"

On why he picked 1000 for "1000 reasons why," he joked that he felt like 100 was too small and 10000 was too big, but it was also a pronunciation thing

Baekho mentioned Kim Yi Na and Park Sang Young talking about Dejavu lyrics and how it's about the spatialization of time and he was really proud that they recognized that. He said he and Bumzu finished the lyrics in Jeju and then on the plane, they completely changed everything.

Baekho was asked if he's ever asked Aron for help on English lyrics and he said yes. For example, for "Firework," he and Bumzu thought it was "Feel like a firework" and Aron corrected him that it was "Feels like a firework"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu asked Baekho what he's proud of with this album and he said he felt like he was able to take on genres he didn't have a chance to do before because it didn't feel like the right time in that moment.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said when they finished the album, he shouted, "I really want to hold a concert!" He thinks songs like "Firework" and "Shooting Star" would sound even better in a concert and he really just wanted to get on stage and perform them.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said for the "Oh Eh Oh Oh Oh" part in "Shooting Star," they literally grabbed anyone they could and asked to record it so it sounded like a big crowd of people singing together.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu said they made a lot of edits on "Shooting Star" bc they really wanted to get the message to fans across as best as they can.

#Baekho said they called it 반딧별 after our ls 반딧봉 (Firefly ls) and because our lights look like stars

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu revealed that they worked on Back To Me quite a lot, the edits to Back To Me took them 1.5 months.

Baekho said this is probably the album they spent the longest time working on.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho and Bumzu said there were a lot of they ended up discarding in the process of putting the album together and they had even recorded another title song to potentially use.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

there were a lot of songs* they ended up

Baekho played the guide for "Must" that he has on his phone. Baekho said the lyrics were too sad so they ended up rewriting the lyrics so the guide lyrics are a little different

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

#Baekho said when he asked Ren to write for the lyrics of "Must," Ren sent him this long letter that Baekho could tell that it had taken Ren days to write. It was so touching and relatable that Baekho wanted to really get the song right for Ren

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 @NUESTNEWS

Baekho was asked what the requirements are in choosing a title track. He said that everyone has to agree to have it as the title track. They went through a lot of different options for the title track before deciding on "I'm in Trouble"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

They came up with the beat of "I'm in Trouble" at the gym. Bumzu was working on abs and Baekho on his arms, when they suddenly looked at each other and was like "Oh? Oh!!!" and immediately put everything down and ran to the studio.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said they have a running joke where Baekho will be like "Oh! I came up with a motif (악상)" and Bumzu will reply, "That 악 doesn't mean music(樂), it means evil(惡)" because he knows Baekho is messing with him

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said that when they were coming up with the title, they first thought "I'm in Trouble" was too long for the title so they thought about calling it just "Trouble" but it sounded weird so they went with "I'm in Trouble"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said for the even line distribution, they don't purposefully try to give all members equal parts but because all the members are talented and they make songs thinking of creating good parts for each member, it ends up working out.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho was asked about the "Whoop" sound that comes up in the song - that a LOVE called "the hiccuping sound" and that made Bumzu crack up - he said they like that kind of sound so they end up using it a lot

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu said Baekho is really good as a producer and arranging music. He said Baekho is able to bring a different perspective to songs and Baekho said thinks of things from the perspective of the person who's performing the song on stage.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu said for this album, Baekho played around with instruments more and played them himself and tried mixing the sounds. He said Baekho's piano playing skills have improved a lot from before! :)

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu said back in NU'EST's "Knight days," they focused a lot on using poetic language in their lyrics but for "The Table" and "The Nocturne," they've used more everyday language that's easy to understand the first time around.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said he really likes the name 세전음 (which is short for 세련된 전자 음악단 Urban Electro Band) because it sounds so cool.

He also said he knows a lot of fans want to hear instrumentals for NU'EST's music

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

They're talking about Minhyun's lyrics for Moon Dance and Baekho said Minhyun wrote such beautiful lyrics that really fit the song.

Bumzu said he'd never seen Minhyun so excited to share his ideas for lyrics before and it was really cute
#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho realizing it's past 1 AM. He said he saw the post on the fancafe asking if Baekho could talk about the work he put in to create the album. He wanted to do it today after the schedule and it ended up being later than he expected

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said for the super low "Push and pull" right before the chorus, they usually just record a voice at the normal pitch and then use a program to drop the pitch down really low to create the effect

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Bumzu randomly commented that he thought Aron's hair was so cool for this comeback, and Baekho said it's a hairstyle Aron has wanted to do since their debut days and he finally got to do it for this comeback.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho and Bumzu first met when Baekho was 19. He said because their personalities are similar and they work well together, they quickly became friends and Baekho was already teasing Bumzu the day after they first met.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho and Bumzu said they like to snack on things as they work. When it's the two of them, they usually order at least 3 dishes and not 2.

Bumzu: "We basically order with the thought that there will be leftovers but we eat it all"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

#Baekho said whenever they start work on a new album, they'll go out and buy a new instrument so they can try and incorporate a new sound into the new album. Bumzu once bought an audio recorder to capture day-to-day sounds for inspiration.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 @NUESTNEWS

Baekho said for Love Paint, Bumzu bought a violin and he worked really hard to learn it but it wasn't up to the level they wanted, so they ended up calling in a professional Bumzu gave the violin to his mom as a gift

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho was asked why they picked "one two 셋 (three in Korean)" for "Firework" lyrics and Baekho said the "three" pronunciation was tricky so they said, "Why not try 셋 instead?" and it sounded good so they went with that

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Baekho was asked how they pick tracklist orders, and he said the thing he focuses most on is the first and last song because he wants the first song to be like a welcoming message and the last song to be like "Thank you for listening~"

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

On what happens to all the songs they end up not using, #Baekho said they do keep them just in case but they've never really ended up going back to them because Baekho feels they no longer capture the essence of who they are now in this moment

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 @NUESTNEWS

Ahh, Baekho shared this photo that Bumzu took of him while they were filming the MV and he was monitoring the scene he had just filmed!

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Saying goodbye now, Bumzu said thank you for listening to NU'EST's music

Baekho said thank you for staying up so late and he hopes he's been able to answer some of our questions about the album.

#뉴이스트 #NUEST #백호 #Baekho @NUESTNEWS

Ahh Baekho did that cute thing he always does when he doesn't want to say goodbye so he's like "Ok, I'm going now~ Bye~ Bye~ ..... I'm really going~ Bye~" as he said goodbye

Bye Baekho~ Thank you for coming today
