[OSENWORLD] As RIIZE celebrates its second anniversary since debut, the members have taken time to reflect on the journey so far — from unforgettable memories with fans to the moments that marked their growth as artists.
“Two Years In: What RIIZE Learned From Their Journey”
Shotaro: “These two years are filled with unforgettable memories. I’ve grown so much and felt so much happiness. Looking back, debuting as part of RIIZE was a true blessing. Meeting our fans, BRIIZE, gave me new perspectives and joy. I’m sincerely thankful.”
Eunseok: “We’ve built so many memories over these two years. The bond with BRIIZE has grown deeper, and I’m excited about the times we’ll share moving forward.”
Sungchan: “It’s hard to believe it’s already been two years! We’ve grown so much, and BRIIZE has become an essential part of our journey. I want to make the most of the time ahead.”
Wonbin: “It doesn’t feel real yet, but because it’s only been two years, I’m even more excited about what lies ahead. I want to turn the days ahead into great memories.”
Sohee: “Time has flown by as we ran together with the members and BRIIZE. But it’s still just our second year, and I feel like there’s so much more to achieve.”
Anton: “Every moment has been a precious memory for me. I’ve grown because BRIIZE has been there watching. It’s only been two years — we have so much more to share.”
“Defining Moments: Recognizing Their Growth”
Shotaro: “The biggest change was learning how to truly enjoy performing. At debut, I focused only on working hard. Now I’ve found my own color and can share the joy with BRIIZE. Our first fan-con and solo concert helped me grow.”
Eunseok: “Fan-cons and concerts gave me valuable experience. I used to get nervous and lacked composure on stage, but now I feel more relaxed and confident.”
Sungchan: “Through the RIIZING LOUD world tour, I gained stage experience and also became more comfortable speaking to the audience. I’ve grown in many aspects.”
Wonbin: “Growth doesn’t come in one moment — it happens day by day. At concerts, the energy exchange with BRIIZE inspires me to add ad-libs, and that makes the stage better. Still, I feel I have much more to show.”
Sohee: “Preparing our first studio album ODYSSEY taught me so much — not just about music but also about the mindset I need, the way I approach the stage, and how precious our fans truly are.”
Anton: “Touring has been the biggest source of growth for all of us. Meeting more BRIIZE through RIIZING LOUD made me realize that we’re constantly evolving as a team.”
With candid reflections, the six members made it clear that RIIZE’s story is only just beginning. As they enter their third year, each member is eager to continue growing — together with BRIIZE.
