Few K-pop groups dominate a stage like ATEEZ. Every step ignites, every note strikes, every glance sparks connection \u2014 a perfect whirlwind of movement, sound, and charisma that pulls fans in and refuses to let go.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cBreak the wall\u201d chants roar, lights flare, and somewhere between the first note and the last, the room becomes electrified. On stage, ATEEZ live \u2014 and with ATINY beside them, that energy pulses through the crowd, making everyone feel alive.<\/span><\/p>\n Seven years have passed since ATEEZ\u2019s first Australian tour, when the fresh-faced rookies performed hits like \u201cPirate King\u201d, \u201cSay My Name\u201d, \u201cHALA HALA\u201d, and \u201cWave\u201d mere months after their debut. <\/span><\/p>\n Now, they return to Melbourne and Sydney, carrying a global career filled with milestones: Billboard Hot 100 entries, five No. 1 albums on Billboard\u2019s Top Album Sales Chart, and 2025 K-pop Artist of the Year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.<\/span><\/p>\n But accolades only tell one side of the story. In their Rolling Stone AU\/NZ<\/em> interview, ATEEZ reflect on seven years of growth, the bond that defines them, the intensity of their latest EP <\/span>GOLDEN HOUR: Part.4<\/span><\/i><\/a>, and the fans who make every moment unforgettable.<\/span><\/p>\n Rolling Stone AU\/NZ: There\u2019s this electric chemistry when you perform \u2014 yet each of you has a distinct identity that shines through. On stage, how do you balance expressing your individual selves while moving together as one team?<\/b><\/p>\n Hongjoong: <\/b>We talk a lot about our staging, our songs, and our next concept. Through those discussions, we make sure our individual charm comes through while still coming together as one on stage.<\/span><\/p>\n Get your daily dose of everything happening in Australian\/New Zealand music and globally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cEight makes one team\u201d started as a catchphrase, but now it feels like a reflection of the loving, chaotic brotherhood ATEEZ has become. In your song \u201cChoose\u201d, you pledge to stick together \u2014 for each other and for ATINY. Seven years in, what does being part of this family feel like now, compared to when you were rookies?<\/b><\/p>\n San: <\/b>We weren\u2019t that close before debut, but over the years, we made a lot of memories \u2014 both good and bad. Those memories made us family. When I\u2019m with the members now, I feel like I\u2019m home. The most important thing is that without ATINY, we wouldn\u2019t be who we are.<\/span><\/p>\n Hongjoong: <\/b>We chose ATINY, and ATINY chose us. It feels like destiny. They loved our songs, and we continue to share that message with our fans and with each other.<\/span><\/p>\nLove Music?<\/h2>\n
