The Song Embodies Life Itself

I’m crazy about groups like Fifth Harmony, Little Mix, and K-pop girl groups. What I love about girl groups is that they always incorporate dance.

But a show isn’t complete with just dance music. That’s why I have ballads, intense tracks, dance tracks—I want to infuse various emotions into one show.
