Tetris Kelly:
Well, first of all, I feel like I already know you because you’ve been hanging out with my producer Evan, and he loves you guys so much. So I’m happy to meet you guys at KCON. Tell me about these outfits because you guys look great. What was the inspiration? A little bit of race car going …

Maya:
Oh, yeah … this is like a race car concept. But we wanted to put energy into our performance as well. So we put, like, red colors and also sparkles, bling bling. You know, we need the bling bling for the big stages today!

Tetris Kelly:
Well, you guys are blinging and I know you’ve been busy, obviously. You’ve been at our studio, you’re at KCON LA now. What else have you guys gotten to do while you’re in L.A.? I’ve heard something, I’m just saying.

Maya:
Well, we are preparing a lot of new songs. Our first mini album is coming soon, Sept. 27. Actually, so we’re preparing for that. Oh, yes. Get ready. New DNA is coming. So yes, we’re preparing for that and also different stages upcoming this year.
