How do you use social media (TikTok, YouTube) to connect with fans worldwide?
FUM: Besides getting to know us through our music, we also want everyone to get to know each member better. Online platforms are a great tool for connecting with fans, even across vast distances. I’m so happy to see international fans commenting and interacting with us. It motivates me to improve my English so I can communicate more fluently with everyone.
Graphic: I have to thank modern technology! Social media lets us connect with people globally. It allows people far away, or those who don’t have the chance to meet us in person, to see us and interact through various platforms.
What are some hidden skills or hobbies that fans don’t know about? (Each member answers)
Joker: I can hold my breath underwater for almost a minute.
Blue: I actually really love playing sports. I played a lot in elementary and middle school, but I haven’t had much opportunity since becoming an artist. I enjoy many different sports.
Fum: I can play table tennis. We have a table tennis table at our studio, and I often play in my free time. And of course, I usually win.
Deenan: I’m skilled at rock climbing. I love it and try to go almost every day, whether it’s after practice, after studying, or after an event—whenever I have time. If possible, I’d love to go rock climbing in the Philippines someday.
Tae: It’s about my studies. I’m really proud that I got a 4.00 GPA last semester—all A’s. To be honest, I wasn’t a diligent student before. I focused more on extracurricular activities and sports, and my grades reflected that. But when my family sent me to study abroad, I realized how much it cost. I felt terrible about wasting their money if I didn’t do well in school. So I made a big change, and I’m so happy to have reached this point.
Pann: Many people don’t know that I play the khim (a Thai musical instrument). I studied it for three years in high school and even performed at school events. I encourage everyone to explore Thai music; it’s really fun!
Khupt: I enjoy graphic design and other design work. My job often involves collaborating with talented architects, and I’ve learned a lot from observing their detailed and beautiful designs.
Mann: You see my extroverted, high-energy personality, but I actually enjoy spending time alone and going places by myself. My way of recharging is to chill and be quiet in solitude.
Krit: I’m actually left-handed, but I was taught to write right-handed as a child. As a result, I can eat with both hands now.
Graphic: I really love nature and traveling, but I don’t often take pictures of scenery or myself with scenery, so people don’t see it much. And I like NJZ! Shh!
Euro: I love the smell of motor oil and the scent of new magazines.
Fogus: I really enjoy cleaning my room. It makes me happy, relaxed, and it’s something that doesn’t require much thought.
If you could switch roles with another member for a day, who would it be and why?
Joker: Krit. I want to relive my high school days and experience the school atmosphere with my friends again.
Blue: I’d choose Joker. He eats a lot of vegetables, and I don’t like them at all, so I want to try living a day as someone who enjoys vegetables.
Fum: Pann. I want to know what the air is like up there (referencing Pun’s height).
Deenan: Blue. I want to use his Virgin Active fitness membership and experience a day at the gym. I enjoy working out and taking care of my health, and I’ve heard Virgin Active is the best and most expensive gym in Thailand.
Tae: Fum. I want to know what it’s like to be the main dancer, learning choreography in 5 minutes and teaching it to others.
Pann: I’d switch with Grafik. I want to know what it feels like to be my friend.
Khupt: Krit. I want to be the maknae (youngest) for a day.
Mann: Khupt. He’s incredibly talented, balancing engineering and being an artist. I want to experience his life for a day.
Krit: Pann. I want to know what the air is like up there (referencing Pun’s height).
Graphic: Pann. I want to experience breathing in the air up high and feel what it’s like to see everything from the stage during a concert.
Euro: Pann. I want to try being tall for a day.
Fogus: Graphic. I want to know what it’s like to dance cool moves and have that cool stage presence.
What snacks do you bring for late-night practices?
Joker: Chocolate and jelly.
Blue: I usually bring chocolate and jelly. When you’re dancing intensely, you get really tired, and sugar helps a lot.
Fum: A water bottle. I drink a lot of water, and it also serves as a center point during practice.
Deenan: My phone. During practice, I get tired, and my mind always wanders to my phone. It helps me relax.
Tae: My trusty bag. It has everything I need—it’s like Doraemon’s bag.
Pann: Music. I listen to music or piano pieces when I’m tired. It helps me relax and de-stress.
Khupt: I don’t bring snacks; I eat everything I have after practice.
Mann: Anything delicious and edible can be a snack for me! Haha!
Krit: Water. Stay hydrated 💪🏻
Grafik: My phone. I’m attached to all the fans; I need to talk to them or I’ll miss them.
Euro: Water.
Fogus: Probably chocolate. High sugar, high energy.
Filipino fans are known for their passionate support. What message do you have for them?
Tae: I want to say thank you so much for your unwavering support and love. We’re really looking forward to meeting you all, and we’ll keep creating music for you to enjoy. Thank you for being part of our family. Let’s stay together for a long, long time! We love you!
Blue: I want to express my sincere gratitude to our Filipino fans for always seeing and supporting us. If we get the chance, we definitely want to visit the Philippines to see you all.
Krit: To our Filipino fans: Thank you for all the wonderful love you’ve given ZOLAR. It’s like a constant flow of positive energy that keeps us going. We hope to meet you all in the Philippines someday!
