ENHYPEN returns as 6 with music inspired by Brazilian funk

K-pop boy band ENHYPEN released its first album as a six-member group on Friday, titled THE SIN : BLISS. The album's lead track is a Brazilian funk song called "Bloody Paradise." ENHYPEN held its first media conference since announcing the lineup change in Seoul's Yongsan District on Thursday, following the departure of member Heeseung in March.

In an interview, Jungwon, one of the six new members, emphasized that the band kept its focus on music rather than the reduced lineup. "We always think about the finished work," Jungwon stated. "Rather than the number of members, we focused on how to make the result better, on how the recording sounds and how the performance looks."

The band had a show in Australia just two or three days after the lineup change, according to Jungwon. He added that fans judge the group based on their stage presence, so the members concentrated on being professional and putting on a good performance. Jungwon reiterated that the new album and its reception were always centered on their fans.

Jay, another band member, was less measured when asked about the album's ranking. "We pr" — the transcript is incomplete, providing no further details on Jay's thoughts about the album's reception.
