JAKARTA - K-pop idol group ATEEZ talked about their senior colleague iKON in a new video uploaded by competition organizers Kingdom: Legendary War on the YouTube page on Wednesday.

The 5:22 minute video shows ATEEZ's reaction when they find out that iKON will join the competition. Wooyoung then commented, "They are so cool", continued by San, who said he had watched the Killing Me singer group concert with his mother. Even though he was watching from afar, he thought iKON was amazing.

Seonghwa said that when he started his dream of becoming an idol, he watched iKON's performances and sang the senior's song at his school festival.

"I thought covering one of their songs would be a great honor for me," he said.

In Kingdom, ATEEZ who was the winner in the first half of the round chose to perform iKON's song on the mission "Re-Born". They then explained why.

"We have the same feeling about the song (iKON), so this is an advantage in preparing it. All members also want to sing iKON's song. This is the reason," said the leader of Hongjoong as quoted by Antara.

During the shooting of the event, ATEEZ seemed to have an intense chat with iKON. Wooyoung who talked the most admitted that he wanted to be closer to Jinhwan. A screenshot of the text message between the two idols is shown.

In the fifth episode of Kingdom which airs tonight on the Mnet television channel, ATEEZ sings iKON's RHYTHM TA song based on their interpretation of one of iKON's iconic songs.

In the previous week, iKON had already performed ATEEZ's songs in a hip-hop style. The moving stage background, the falling action, and the camera blur effect became a show that completed their performance.
