There are K-Pop fans across the globe who share the same passion. But on online platforms, it is hard to know about each other’s stories and K-Pop life. Even if we are in the same fandom, it is hard to get to know each other. So at Kpopmap, we started the Kpopmap Fan Interview Project to get to know more about K-Pop fans from different countries: more about their K-Pop life and tastes and to give them the opportunity to share with our readers about their favorite group(s) and bias. Shagie from Poland is the next fan to answer our questions. She is a fan of ATEEZ, particularly of San! Check out how she entered the fandom, the songs and content she advises to new fans, and much more! Can you introduce yourself? Where are you from? Hiii I’m Shagie and I’m from Poland! How and when did you enter the fandom? I think that was when ‘The Real’ MV come out. So that was 10 months ago! Wow time flies fast. What are the reasons why you love your favorite group? Besides great music that fits my taste perfectly, when I first time hear their music I was like “Wow, they are so talented!” They quickly become my comfort group. Who caught your attention at first and why? San, because he looks so unreal and beautiful. And his voice is so wow. Who is your bias, and why? My biases are actually all of them, but I want to mention San here. San is my bias ever since I entered fandom and he really is just like me and this makes me fall for him even more. Can you recommend a title track and a B-side track for new fans? All of their songs are really good but for the title track, I want to recommend ‘Pirate King’ and ‘INCEPTION’. ‘Cyberpunk ’ and ‘Better (Korean Ver.)’ for B-side! That 4 songs are very catchy and make me want to dance no matter where I am. Can you recommend a fancam, V Live, cover video, cover dance, or individual content video of your bias to our readers? Here is a link to a cover he made on V Live! His voice is so beautiful. Can you also do the same type of recommendation for the group? This cover will never get old to listen to it! Can you share with us one of your favorite lyrics? The whole lyrics for ‘Better’ and ‘Be With You". These songs make me cry. If you go to only one, would you go to a concert, fan meeting, or fan sign? I love concerts so I would 100% choose a concert! If you have a chance to cook for the group, what will you cook for them? I would cook them whatever they want. Even if I didn’t know how to cook something, at least I would learn new things! If you can spend a day with your bias, where will you go and what will you do? First, I would ask where he would like to go to know exactly where he likes to go. If I had to spend a day with him in my city, I would show him the most interesting parts of the city. Do you have a dream subunit/unit? I’d love to see a collab with 3racha (Stray Kids) + MinGi, HongJoong and JongHo. Describe them in 5 words. The most kind hearted people. What is one thing that you think is unique about your bias/bias group? ATEEZ are unique people because of their concept! Pirates? I love it! What is your favorite group/bias’ influence on your daily life? They really bring me a lot of happiness and I’m really proud of them. They are more than just K-Pop group they are my second home. Shagie’s message to San: Hi San, I hope you are fine and that you eat well, you are a really important person to me, and please don’t give up and do what you do because you are the best at it. I hope to see you at a concert someday! I Love you <33 Thank you for answering our questions, Shagie.
