THANXX ⁕ Ateez ⁕ Zero: Fever Part.1 Atinyblr Revival Week 2: A Music Video or A Stage Performance

[brigidandair]

Album: ATEEZ Mini Album 4 - "Zero: Fever Part 1”

Hongjoong Album Photocards - Inception Ver. A 》 THANXX Ver. A - THANXX Ver. B 》 Inception Ver. B

Ohhhhh my gosh, finally progress on Fever Pt. 1, and it's Joong no less! These cards are SO HARD to find for a decent price, because of how popular HongBloong was. And being fair, Blueberry Captian remains iconic. I actually found these all in one listing, along with the Diary version Hongjoong card, and all three versions of the album, and I couldn't resist. Upside, I now have copies of Fever Pt. 1 to give to a friend that doesn't have them yet!

scanned by me. please give credit to brigidandair or Jasmyr if you use them!

Ateez Universe part 1

ATEEZ UNIVERSE ↳ ZERO: FEVER PART.1 ⋐ Sources ▸Intro of the album ▸Webtoon Concept Photos ▸Album ▸DIARY BOOK ▸Diary Film ▸Fever Road

▴Intro of the album Jun4th

Faceless ATEEZ members in school uniform. We don’t know the reason why they lost their faces. (Yet)

▴Webtoon Concept Photos Jun6-9th

◦Seonghwa’s Memory

He talks about a girl who now he can’t find anywhere. It disappears like dreaming in a dream.

Resim ◦San’s Resolution

San is sick of his life. But if you check other member’s cards you can see that he is the one who has a narrator, 3rd perspective.

◦Yunho and his Brother

Yunho received his brother’s dream as a legacy. But, what will he do if his brother DISAPPEARS?

If the brother can disappear like poof- vanish he must be somewhere else in the present right?

◦Yeosang’s Time

Adults said; Look up at the stars in the night sky.

But the stars did not shine in the night sky that I was looking at and I continued to walk looking down on the ground.

◦Wooyoung’s Choice

He says that he gave up the “EASY WAY” to be with his friends. But now he has regrets about something, he is angry about something.

◦Mingi’s Diary

“For a guys like me, being without a dream is a normal thing?

◦Jongho’s Wanderings

He was too young to understand his friends that lost their way. No dead person or anything. And know he doesn’t know where he belongs.

◦The Man with the Black Fedora

As you can see in the Photo, this man also wears a chain necklace.

“Reality” didn’t make you lose the dream! I guess that’s the point.

◦Hongjoong’s Dream

Countless dimensions in the world and an hourglass appears beside Hongjoong.

And also the logo is not the same logo for some reason?

▴Into the New World

An hourglass. And the 2 E’s grow like they are connected.

▴Album, Lyrics and MV’s

▾Dear Diary : 2016.07.29

Weather is clear. A child who is probably Yeosang, because of the similarity in the lyrics and his card, while looking at the ground meets a child. As their friendship gets powerful they meet more children who have some space in their heart. Their meeting when they come together to make music triggers something inside them a Fever.

You can see similarities between Yeosang’s card. This diary and story is a sequence from his life in the Adult World.

▾Fever

These children who suffer in this world, Adult World start to find the cure in this friendship and ask if they are also feeling the same.

There are two key points in this song : the constellation parable and Moon’s reflection.

Ateez realizes importance of direct interactions with fans during world tours

SEOUL, March 23 (Yonhap) -- Last year was probably one of the busiest years for Ateez, a rising fourth-generation K-pop group. The octet performed in front of 430,000 fans in the past one year and two months during its two "The Fellowship" world tours in North America, Europe and Asia.

"It was good to show various performances to fans, whom we had not seen for a long time, and we were able to better understand their needs regarding our future path or what kind of songs they want to hear more," team leader Hongjoong said during a group media interview at a Seoul cafe Wednesday.

He added he could see in person fans' preferences in the band's songs are all different depending on their regions.

Member San chimed in, saying, "I realized this is what should be expected from the interaction between fans and artists."

The two members singled out Paris as the most memorable stop of the tours.

Fans in Paris had a special way to welcome the group, which was to stamp their feet, during its first world tour in 2019.

"I slightly expected the same thing when we went there again this time, and it did happen. Since there were more spectators, I found the energy coming from the cheering very fresh and marvelous," Hongjoong said.

Wooyoung, a main dancer of the team, chose Belgium and Denmark because it was personally his first time to be there, and people cheered and sang along more often and more loudly.

The band now feels they have grown thanks to the recent tours, in particular in terms of good teamwork as well as performance and self-management skills.

Ateez debuted in October 2018 with its first EP, "Treasure Ep. 1: All to Zero," and has since released such hits as "Wave," "Wonderland," "Deja vu," "The Real" and "Guerrilla."

The group entered the Billboard 200 main albums chart for the first time at No. 42 in 2021 with its seventh EP, "Zero: Fever Part. 3." In 2022, the band reached No. 3 on the chart with its eighth EP, "The World Ep. 1: Movement." It became the band's first album to sell more than 1 million copies.

In order to present more music and performances with most pandemic restrictions lifted, 2023 will be a very important year for the group, Hongjoong said. Another reason he cited was that the band is now in the fifth year of its career, sitting in the middle point between being a rookie and a veteran.

Known for its intense and fierce music and performances, the group is now getting increasingly popular in South Korea following the latest hit, "Guerrilla," although the size of its domestic fandom still doesn't match that out of the country.

Asked whether it has any intention to veer off course to win more public appeal, Hongjoong confided: "Actually, we also have thought about that for a long time. Everyone would agree that having at least one hit song is good for artists, but that's not something one can achieve when they want."

He said the group will continue to keep from pursuing any change to appeal to broader music fans.

"However, we want to continue to produce music that more people can relate to within our framework," he added.

Music Monday #236: ATEEZ - Youth release: December 2023 genre: Kpop cw: violence, implied abuse, arson, flashing, unsteady cam

I did say I was going to keep featuring my best boys until they ran out of unit MVs, so if you're surprised I'm still on my ATINY bullshit, then shame on you, no cookies for you. XD

In the past, ATEEZ's members have often commented about how it's a shame ATINY don't get to hear Mingi singing more often, both because Mingi has a great voice and because singing makes Mingi so happy, but was something he'd thought he wouldn't be able to pursue after his voice dropped in puberty. As one of ATEEZ's main rappers, that is what audiences hear from him most often. And with him being paired with his BFF (and main vocalist) Yunho, it was initially expected that Yunho would lead the singing and Mingi would add some rapped verses here and there. Instead, Youth is the Mingi Show with Special Guest Yunho - Mingi does all the rapping (of course) and the larger share of the singing and while Yunho does have some lines to himself, mostly he turns up in the color lines, offering those high notes Mingi can't hit and harmonizing beautifully. And in my opinion, it's the perfect balance as Mingi's voice, especially when in the upper end of his range, infuses a certain wistful longing into a song about why being young isn't as easy as people think and the pressures of life, along with the importance of not facing it all alone.

This video, unlike the MV for IT's You, has a lot more storytelling elements to it. Of course there's still some amazing dance sequences, because Mingi and Yunho are both main dancers, but other than the few group dances, most of the scenes are dedicated to forwarding the story of the power of youth. It's was also mostly shot outside, in cold weather, so that final fire probably felt nice.

If it's been awhile since you last watched ATEEZ's Inception, now would probably be a good time to do that. Don't worry, I'll wait. ;)

Back? Good. While IT's You's callbacks were more in effect than story (since IT's You had very little actual story movement), Youth is much more direct - the scenes are unreal, of course, but still continue the story of Yunho's grief for his elder brother, killed in a horrible car crash, and Mingi's decidedly unhealthy home life. This makes a second suggestion that we're returning to the A 'verse close to the events of Inception, though of course even that is a bit of a herring - Inception is dream sequence upon dream sequence in the first place, with scenes mostly showing the members' backstories, twisted with grief, rather than current events. The "current" of Zero Fever part 1 is Hongjoong getting the team back together, but since the storytelling abruptly jumped to Z for part 2, what happens next is ... what we'll find out in the next major release, I suppose. ;)

THE WORLD EP.FIN: WILL continues to kick butt and now ATEEZ are making history as the first male kpop idol group to have stage time at Coachella. On my birthday. The universe is a cruel bastard. XD

ATEEZ se prepara para su próximo capítulo con un epílogo cinematográfico para “SPIN OFF: FROM THE WITNESS”

El 5 de febrero, ATEEZ lanzó un epílogo de su reciente álbum sencillo “SPIN OFF : FROM THE WITNESS”. El vídeo musical del último tema del grupo, “HALAZIA“, contaba una historia cinematográfica y distópica que añadía una nueva capa a la rica historia de ATEEZ, y el nuevo clip añade una misteriosa coda a esa historia.

El nuevo epílogo, protagonizado por Seonghwa, también se remonta a la época de “ZERO : FEVER Part.1” de ATEEZ, cuando la pulsera “Be Free” que aparece al final del vídeo hizo su primera aparición.
