Pentagon Talk Slow-Burning Success of 'Shine' at KCON 2018 NY
FUSE TV - Pentagon Talk Slow-Burning Success of 'Shine' at KCON 2018 NY
While Pentagon wasn't the newest artist on the KCON 2018 New York lineup, they may have been the K-pop act with the most to prove. A year and a half after their debut, the 10-member boy band found an unexpected hit in the rising success of "Shine," a feel-good bouncy hip-hop number that highlighted the group's penchant for slick raps and playful melodies. The track not only became their first hit in Korea, but marked a breakout success for them on the U.S. charts too.
Backstage at the festival, the nine Pentagon boys (member Yanan had a previous commitment overseas) were clear in their intentions to keep the momentum going while recognizing the hard work and experimentation that brought them to where they were today. Read on for their thoughts on what contributed to their breakout hit, exciting future plans and more.
