Since their debut, ENHYPEN has captured the world’s attention with an irresistible blend of intensity, mystery and constant evolution. With each release, the group proves that their music goes beyond traditional kpop, inviting audiences to dive into a universe where identity, transformation and connection are everything.

In this interview, the seven members reveal everything about their latest project, “THE SIN : VANISH,” the emotions behind each track, and the details that shape a carefully crafted story from beginning to end.

Blurring the boundaries between music and storytelling, the result is an album that feels like a mystery series: WELCOME, ENHYPEN!

THE SIN : VANISH unfolds more like a mystery series than a traditional album. If you were viewers rather than protagonists, which moment in the story would hook you the fastest?

[JUNGWON] All the songs on the album are memorable, of course, but personally, “Witnesses” is the one that captivated me the most. The voices that appear throughout the skit resemble testimonies or witness accounts, which makes it very easy to connect with the story.

“Knife” presents confidence as something sharp and dangerous. How has ENHYPEN’s definition of confidence changed compared to previous eras?

[SUNGHOON] I see confidence not just as an attitude, but as a feeling that includes self-assurance and trust in what you do. That certainty is stronger now than it was before and that sense of conviction shows how much we’ve grown as a group.

Actor Park Jeong-min’s narration adds a very powerful external voice. What did his presence bring to the album that the music alone couldn’t achieve?

[SUNOO] I felt that the narration played an especially crucial role in this album. It helped connect the songs naturally and added emotions and a sense of flow that the music alone couldn’t convey, making the overall album experience even more special and immersive.

The album combines songs, narration, and skits. How did you manage to stay emotionally immersed in the story while moving between these different formats?

[HEESEUNG] As you mentioned, we wanted to strengthen the album’s overall narrative by incorporating elements like narration and skits. We meticulously structured the transitions between tracks to maintain the emotional flow and, even during the recording process, preserving that continuity was our top priority.

JAKE took part in the production and created his first self-composed song, “Sleep Tight.” How did the group’s creative dynamic change with a member being involved behind the scenes?

[NI-KI] The fact that some of our members directly participated in producing the songs on the album allowed our individual styles and personal artistic visions to stand out. The creative process became more dynamic and I think this will help us create even stronger songs and performances in the future.

“Stealer” and “Knife” feel bold and unapologetic, while “Sleep Tight” reveals a quiet anxiety. Which emotional side was the most difficult to express honestly?

[JAKE] Since the songs express very different emotions, each one came with its own challenges. In more intense tracks like “Stealer” and “Knife,” it was important not to let the emotion overflow, while in “Sleep Tight” I focused on conveying the feelings subtly with a restrained expression. Overall, I’m satisfied with how the emotions of each song came through.

This album suggests moments of peace that coexist with danger. How do you personally experience joy when uncertainty is still present?

[JAY] I feel a great sense of courage and joy when I’m on stage with our fans. On the other hand, when I’m alone in the studio playing the guitar, I find comfort and a feeling of release.

[SUNOO] Seeing ENGENEs’ reactions brings me a lot of joy and comfort. It’s very meaningful to know that our efforts are recognized and supported by people who mean so much to us.

When fans listen to the album from the opening narration to the final track, what detail (musical, emotional or narrative) do you hope they notice that reflects how deeply crafted this project is?

[JUNGWON] I hope listeners can notice that every song and every element wasn’t placed at random but was carefully designed to tell a cohesive story. I also hope they can feel that all the members and the team poured our hearts into this project and gave our very best from beginning to end.
