"Between DINO and Picheolin"... The side of concert preparation shown by SEVENTEEN's DINO

SEVENTEEN's DINO is immersing himself in bridging the gap between his image as an artist and a new character. In a recently released behind-the-scenes video, the process of DINO conducting poster shoots and his first solo VCR filming for the upcoming concert is captured, showing him moving between his original self, "DINO," and a new persona, "Picheolin."

Between 'DINO's' sincerity and 'Picheolin's' humor

The filming began with the performance poster work. DINO showed his sincerity regarding this album and performance, appearing to contemplate the images to be included in the poster. To maintain his unique coolness while not missing out on humor, he built his character by even practicing facial expressions he does not normally use. In particular, this poster is an important task to show the unexpected charm of the performance, and DINO worked hard to simultaneously capture both his stage persona and another side of his charm.

As the full-scale VCR filming began, DINO focused on his identity as an artist. He defined the core of this solo VCR as "the fun between DINO and Picheolin." He focused on capturing the process of transitioning onto the stage through scenes of him being immersed in music, catching the rhythm, and dancing. He agonized over finding a balance between the obsession with the performance he will show on stage and a sense of ease, approaching the filming to create a result that can provide joy to fans.

A 12-hour struggle, the appearance of the character 'Picheolin'

The long filming session reached a turning point with the appearance of the new character 'Picheolin' instead of DINO. After finishing the filming as 'DINO' from morning until evening, he continued filming by transforming into the person named 'Picheolin.' Picheolin exudes a quite different atmosphere from DINO and continued to make suggestions to capture even the realistic scenes of the backstage.

The filming proceeded with such intensity that it lasted for more than 12 hours. Having to maintain concentration for a long time, DINO replenished his energy by eating spicy tteokbokki with the staff. Even in the process of striving to perfectly digest the character, he worked to blend into the new persona, continuing both the tension and the joy of the filming site.
