Despite challenges, the remaining members, led by Huiwon, expressed their commitment to the group's resurgence. Sungyun, taking on the role of main vocalist in Doha's absence, detailed his dedicated preparation, including rapid dance memorization and intensive vocal practice.
The new album, "Happy &," explores themes of joy in life, with its title track capturing the anticipation that accompanies farewells. Hanjun explained the concept, stating that moments of separation, such as graduation or leaving a job, signify both an 'end' and the potential for new beginnings, encapsulated in the title, "Happy &."
The album features a diverse range of tracks, including triple title tracks "Happy &," "FUNK JAM," and "Love, Love, Love Love Love!," along with others like "Black Down" and "Memories of Us," showcasing the group's versatility across genres.
Since their debut in August 2023, n.SSign has gained a substantial fan base in Japan, with their debut single, "New Star," achieving third place on the Oricon weekly chart and topping the iTunes Japan chart. The group has also successfully completed a five-city tour in Japan, including a concert at Tokyo's Ariake Arena.
Building on their Japanese success, n.SSign now aims for success in the Korean music scene, setting a goal to "reach the top spot in Korean music shows."
