[talk] It looks like they're flying around at the Rise University festival.

I was surfing the internet earlier and saw a post about Rise, so I clicked on it, and a whole bunch of fancams and photos from university festivals popped up. It looks like they've been touring stages all over the place since it's campus festival season, including Incheon University, Sogang University, and Soongsil University. I could feel the incredible energy right through the screen.

University festival lineups these days are so spectacular that it’s really fun to watch the videos, but the energy at the RISE stage was truly extraordinary. They delivered powerful live renditions of songs like "Boom Boom Bass" and "Love One One Nine," and it felt like they were all flying on stage. It was really impressive to see them running around every corner of the stage to make eye contact and interact with the audience while delivering such energetic performances. The college students in the audience were so excited that they all sang along and shouted for encores, and before I knew it, I was watching the monitor and grooving to the rhythm with them.

What I was most impressed with was the styling; they coordinated their outfits to capture the symbolic colors or uniform vibes of each university. I wondered if it was even possible to pull off a varsity jacket or school uniform in such a hip way, and I thought the idea was really good. It seemed many people shared my sentiment, as the community comments were flooded with praise for the outfits and how they absolutely killed it on stage, making me realize that everyone has the same taste. I even heard that their single released in Japan surpassed 500,000 units shipped and received Double Platinum certification; it is clear that they are a team with formidable momentum both domestically and internationally these days.
