Audrey Lane praised K-Pop stars as being very “interactive” with dancers and said they often show an interest in learning from them.

While she clarified that artists overseas can show that same interest, it seems K-Pop artists have a “very serious” approach to it.

Leader Kirsten noted that the group is becoming more used to working with Korean music, and have adapted to understanding the depth of what the lyrics are saying.

Bella pointed out that K-Pop music has a bit more of a Western style lately, which Kirsten agreed with, naming the recent “Back For More” collaboration between TXT and Brazilian singer-songwriter Anitta as an example.
