Q & A::
Q: Have you ever had writers block?
A: Shinik feels like he’s in a bit of a slump right now, because the lyrics for one of the songs he is working on for their next album is evading him. The music is ready but the lyrics aren’t coming to him.

Q: What is one thing you like the most about Jeju?
A: Shinik – going up to Halla-san Mountain the winter time.
Hyunsang – bicycling on Udo Island.

Q: Future plans?
A: They will be part of Arirang Radios open mic performances. They hope to have their next album out before the year is over.
