Emotional Connections with Fans

Reflecting on her personal journey, Danielle discussed the raw emotion behind their self-written song "Butterflies," which she performed for the first time at the Tokyo Dome fan meeting: "It’s a song I wrote with the thought of always wanting to be with our Bunnies (fandom name).” Her words convey the powerful connection they maintain with their fans, which is crucial in the K-pop industry.

Memorable Moments with Bunnies

Hanni also reminisced about the joyous moments spent with fans, revealing, “I spent a long time looking at the photos I took of the Bunnies from the stage.
