In a recent interview, he shared his feelings after watching his team members perform on stage from an audience’s point of view.

“Yes, rehabilitate hard, and watch all the kids perform. I really wanted to be with you. This was the first time I saw the members from the audience, not from the stage. When I watched it, I thought, ‘Ah, these guys deserve to be loved.’ Not only are they talented, but they all look so happy on stage. This is SEVENTEEN that you can trust and watch. Sure! that's right,” S. Coups said.
