EJ and Nicholas, members of the group &TEAM, brought healing to their fans by revealing behind-the-scenes footage of their New Year's trip to Hawaii.

In a video titled '[&DAY OFF/EJ&NICHOLAS vlog] 02z Chaotic Hawaii Travelogue' released on &TEAM's official YouTube channel on the 18th, EJ and Nicholas were seen heading to the airport with excitement on January 1, 2026. The two, both born in 2002, started their '02z' tour by filling up on udon before departure.

Upon arriving in Hawaii, the pair enjoyed a drive while marveling at the clear weather and beautiful scenery. On the second day of the trip, they traveled for their highly anticipated skydiving session, but unfortunately had to turn back due to strong winds. To make up for the disappointment, they activated 'Plan B,' enjoying outlet shopping and a stroll by the sea, radiating positive energy.

On the third day, thanks to the clear weather, they were finally able to enjoy snorkeling as they had hoped. EJ and Nicholas had a refreshing time playing in the Hawaiian waters and expressed satisfaction with their beach photos, saying, "They look great no matter how you take them". They attempted skydiving once more on the last day, but when it was cancelled again due to the weather, they looked forward to the future, saying, "Even if it's not this time, I'll definitely try it at least once before I die".

At the end of the video, the two happily concluded their final night in Hawaii by eating delicious food and shopping. Fans responded with comments such as "The '02z' duo is so cute," "It's a shame they couldn't skydive, but it's good to see them having fun," and "It felt like I was traveling with them the whole time".

Meanwhile, &TEAM, the group EJ and Nicholas belong to, continues to expand its global fandom through active musical pursuits and diverse content.
