Jsuki; All 3 PENTAGON Mini-albums: PENTAGON, FIVE SENSES & CEREMONY
(※ NOT JPOP RELATED)
I recently got into Kpop a bit, and I started to really like this group called Pentagon! They’re a 10-member male group under Cube Entertainment, and since liking them, I’ve bought all their albums. (Even the 4th and newly released one; I’m just waiting for it to arrive at this point.)
Their music is not really the conventional style idol pop. It’s less mainstream? But they’ve got quite a couple of really nice songs, and to add on, the members contribute to the composing and writing of their own group’s music, which is quite amazing too!
I also realise I super like rappers ((: My favourite in the group is Yuto, but a close second would be Wooseok.
They’re all really talented and versatile boys, just sadly a bit underrated. I hope they’ll be able to get more popular from now on!
The front of the t-shirt pictures a baby drawing their dream on a sketchbook, and on the back pictures the baby after achieving their dream. On the front, the phrase “you can be anything” is the meaningful message I want to share with everyone because like how I have become a singer, if you dream of something and work hard, you will achieve your dream.
While chasing after your dream, there becomes a time when you get exhausted. I wanted to express that there is a positive message that exists in that negative situation. So, on the front if the t-shirt I wanted to show that in whatever situation you can say “I’m fine, it doesn’t matter” and I portrayed that through a cute illustrated character. On the back it says “Even Better” to show that in negative situations, there is a way to think positively.
On the front of the t-shirt pictures the Earth and the Little Prince on top of the Earth. The Little Prince represents myself. I am looking at the back of the t-shirt, which shows the Universe that I have drawn myself. Because I have Universe (the fans) I was able to achieve my dreams, and so I wanted to convey that message through the t-shirt that I am always thinking about the fans.
The front of the t-shirt focuses on the pencil I have designed. When you continually use a pencil, it becomes shorter, however, its many message is all saved through paper. People are like that as well, as time passes and you age, your memories will grow (you’ll have more memories). On the back, I wanted to express my feelings of the dreams I want to achieve, the things I love, and the things I want to accomplish.
The front of the t-shirt shows the paint I was using to design in order to convey the process of achieving one’s dream. The back which pictures flowers and planets, is what I always draw for our fans, Universe, so I symbolized that. The overall theme of the collab (of Charm’s and PTG) is “dream”! My dream is to show many people who I am as well as to share my music with many people. The flower and planets represent our Universe (fans), who has allowed me achieve my dream.
The design I have made for the front of the t-shirt pictures a door and the phrase “You can do it!” that is shown in the light. I wanted to express how I, as well as everyone else, is working hard to reach our dreams, and I wanted to convey the message that everyone will be able to achieve their dreams. On the back, “Thumbs up” is checked off, this is a reference to Pentagon’s song, and it is used to represent the phrase “I am the best” to raise one’s self confidence. “Give up” which is not checked off to show that we will not give up. Lastly, “Charms up” is to boost one’s self confidence in their own appeals and values.
