BRIQ Entertainment boy group NEVONE burst into the scene in May this year, with their bubbly personalities and a cheery debut single Shortcut.
To hear it from NEVONE, the four members – Prom Kridchayaan, Tawan Phurijiwat, Thankhun Darasrisak and Yoshi Pathanan – have worked tirelessly on their road to debut, encountering challenges along the way, but ultimately pushing through.
The group’s name is derieved from the phrase “The One in Neverland”, and the boys have definitely taken fans on a trip through their Neverland.
Since their debut this year, NEVONE have gone on to release two more singles – including ต่อต้าน (Shout Out) which has hit more than a million views on Youtube since its release a month ago.
The group tells ChaPop are working on a “next chapter” – we can’t wait for where the Neverland journey will head to next!
How did each of you get into music?
Thankhun: I developed an interest in music at a very young age because of my mom. She loves listening to various styles of music, and her enthusiasm inspired me to appreciate it deeply. As I grew older, I became more passionate about music when I had the opportunity to learn singing at school, which further fueled my interest.
Prom: I got into music because of how deeply it connects with my emotions. Music allows me to express my feelings without needing words, often brings out my thoughts and desires better than I could explain verbally. I love moving to the rhythm, which is why dancing and singing have become such a big part of my life.
Yoshi: I started wanting to be an artist from watching and getting inspired by watching idol cartoons when I was a kid. After that, my dream gradually grew bigger after watching performances from artists both in Thailand and abroad. I started training myself and looking for opportunities to audition until I became Nevone today.
Tawan: Normally, I like dance challenges with various songs that are trending on TikTok. After listening to those songs for a while, I started to get more interested in K-pop songs and dancing in another style. So, I started to learn dancing and singing, which made me like and interested in the music industry.
Who are your musical inspirations?
Prom: My musical inspirations include artists like Lisa for her versatility and her powerful stage presence, and iconic K-pop & T-pop figures who shaped the music industry. I also look up to Thai music legends, blending these influences to create my unique style as a performer and rapper.
You debut in May this year. Could you share what the journey to debut was like?
Thankhun: Our journey to debut has been incredibly complex and emotional. Since this is our first debut, it has been a mix of excitement, nervousness, and anticipation. We’ve worked tirelessly to prepare, putting in endless hours to develop our skills and ensure our bodies are ready for this moment. It hasn’t been an easy road. We’ve had to overcome challenges, have countless discussions, and sometimes even disagreements. But all of this has shaped us into what we are today.
We’re thrilled to showcase our hard work and can’t wait to hear the audience’s feedback. While we’re nervous about what comes next, our slogan, The One in Neverland, drives us to keep striving to prove ourselves and to be one. This debut is not just a milestone but a testament to our perseverance and passion.
What is your favourite part about being in NEVONE?
Yoshi: The best part about being a NEVONE is that I get to spend time with everyone in NEVONE, doing many things that are “firsts” together. Whether it’s sad or happy, I’m glad that it happened once.
How do you handle the fame that comes with being in a boy group?
Tawan: After becoming more well-known as an artist, I have to trade more time for my personal life with work. I have to be careful when doing anything and be a good example for both my fans and other audiences. I have to work hard to produce good works for the audience.
What’s next for NEVONE?
Prom: NEVONE originated from the idea of “The One in Neverland,” and with every comeback, we aim to take you on a journey through unexpected and imaginative concepts. Over time, we may explore broader shades of colors and evolve into a more mature expression of our performance. Stay tuned—you won’t want to miss what’s next!
Thankhun: The next episode of NEVONE will be a chapter that many people won’t expect. It will be more complex and filled with challenges that will surprise both our Vendy and the audience. So please keep an eye on us—we promise not to disappoint you.
