Group RISE expressed their gratitude to fans. On September 16, during the Mnet broadcast of "Idol Festa Operation: Nationwide Sparkle Tour," RISE visited Seongnam City in Gyeonggi Province. On that day, the members were awarded the title of "Seongnam Flower Ambassadors" at a flower farm in Seongnam. The members, who took part in selling roses, the farm's representative product, pledged, "Let's sell as many as possible," and asked, "Which team has sold the most so far?" The answer was NCT DREAM, seniors from RISE's agency, who set a record by selling 3,881 Andong apples.
Sohee lightened the mood by saying, "Let's sell 5,000." RISE sold a total of 176 roses priced at 990 won each, serving as tickets for a guerrilla performance. The members actively participated by preparing promotional remarks and sales strategies. As the pop-up store opened, a large crowd gathered. Despite dividing roles such as sticker attachment, packaging, and payment, when the younger members faced difficulties, eldest member Shotaro skillfully handled customers based on his four years of part-time work experience.
The fandom Breeze, who came to see RISE at the pop-up site, expressed their love in various ways. One fan gave a handmade flower and sincerely said, "I want to say something. I was really sick last year, but thanks to RISE, I got much better. Thank you so much." Another fan showed a message written on their palm saying, "Thank you for being RISE," and a fan who had been a fan for 55 days also appeared at the site.
Moved by Breeze's passionate love, Wonbin confessed, "Liking someone is not an easy thing, but thank you for always liking us. I won't forget it." This communication with fans is having a positive impact on RISE's activities. Fans gain strength through RISE's activities, and RISE is further strengthening their bond with fans.
This activity became an opportunity to deepen the precious connection between RISE and their fans. Fans gain positive energy through RISE's music and activities, and RISE stated they will work even harder to repay the fans' love. As RISE's future activities and communication with fans are anticipated, their relationship is expected to grow even stronger.
