"I want to cherish today, not the past or the future."

Eric's strength is his powerful dance. The group showcased their dance abilities through the program Road to Kingdom, and the sight of Eric having a conversation with the members was memorable.

ERIC: The members talked here and there about how we can make the fans happy every day, aside from doing the show.

We love contacting people but we had to change our lifestyles because of the current situation.

ERIC: At times like this, I would read a book, or watch a movie, or spend time alone. For me, I think having time for yourself is important. Now, I'm diligently working on composing a song. Maybe someday my song will be on THE BOYZ's SoundCloud too.

It seems like a time machine would be useless for Eric who has been spending his time meaningfully.

ERIC: Yes it's good to go back in the past but that's that. It's only possible if what you were before is the same as the present. If you already know what you will be like in the future, you could be living carelessly and arrogantly. That's why I want to live preciously today.

What new product do you want to have at the dorm?

ERIC: I hope there's a product/technology that allows us to see the fans during live shows or something that will help me give something directly to fans. It would be fun if we have that in the dorms even if through online means but, of course meeting THE Bs face-to-face would still be the best.

As a THE BOYZ member, Eric would like to do a Japan dome tour! However, more than performing in a bigger venue, he would like to remain active and create a never-ending relationship with THE Bs.

What do you think is the good thing about being a member of The Boyz?

ERIC: I'm also always delighted. But, there are times when I think what if I'm not. I have thoughts such as, what if I'm not a member [of THE BOYZ], I wouldn't be able to experience the joy of seeing THE Bs seated there in the audience while doing a live show. That would not happen if I'm not a member.

Eric. December 22, 2000. Lead dancer, Rap. Lived in LA, proficient in English. I'm the dorm leader because of my neat personality.

"I want to walk in the streets of Japan, take photos, or enjoy the atmosphere of Japan."
