K-pop boy group ATEEZ, already a major force on the global music scene, is enjoying a new level of recognition at home following the success of its hit song "BAD" — with members saying even everyday encounters have changed, from receiving extra freebies at shops to being recognized without having to introduce themselves. The eight-member group — Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yunho, Yeosang, San, Mingi, Wooyoung and Jongho — held a press conference Thursday at Novotel Ambassador in Gangnam, southern Seoul, ahead of the release of its 15th mini-album, "GOLDEN HOUR : Part.6." The album marks ATEEZ's first comeback since "BAD" became a sensation, helping the group expand its popularity among the general public in Korea after years of building a strong international fan base.
