6 member boyband, boyfriend, has come back with their second single album, “don’t touch my girl.” This song was created by the hit-makers Sweettune.
To match the lively and powerful song, boyfriend has shed off their cute and anime character like image and returned with a more manly and mature look.
What do you think about this album?
Donghyun: “It was an honor to be able to work with Sweettune. The song is very up-beat and fast but if you listen carefully, the words are actually pretty sad. It’s a Boyfriend kind of song.”
Jeongmin: “I feel like the concept has changed a lot from the first album.You can say that we pushed the cute factor a lot in the first single album, but in the second one, we added a more manly kind of style, but it’s still pretty cute. From the song title, to the dance, to the song, we changed to a more mature look.”
How was the public’s response?
Donghyun: “We didn’t think our concept change was a big one, but our fans kept saying it was such a drastic change and that they’re shocked. “
Kwangmin: “A lot of the fans said I’ve become a lot more manlier now that I cut my hair.”
Weren’t the lyrics a little embarrassing?
Donghyun: “I liked that the lyrics were a little embarrassing, it was more fun for me to sing. Especially in our “Don’t Touch My Girl” song, there are lyrics that say belly and I thought that was really cute.”

Donghyun: “We’re getting trained 2 days a week for 2 hours from our trainer. Other than that, we sometimes train on our own.”
