We were great friends; we not only got along well, but also could truly rely on each other. I want CIX to be like that."Then, Bae Jin Young mentioned that he received a lot of support from the members of Wanna One ahead of his re-debut.

He added, "Also, I recently met DAE HWI at one event in Ulsan. He gave me a lot of confidence by telling me how great I was on stage."Meanwhile, CIX released its first album 'HELLO: Chapter 1. Hello, Stranger' on July 23.
