ALPHA DRIVE ONE's Arno and Xinlong Share Their Dreams: "We Want to Reach More People"

ALPHA DRIVE ONE members Arno and Xinlong have shared their ambitions for the group's future, opening up about their friendship and musical aspirations in a new interview with fashion magazine Dazed.

The magazine unveiled a joint pictorial and interview featuring the two members on October 23, showcasing a different side of the pair beyond their performances onstage.

For the photoshoot, Arno and Xinlong posed in front of a sports car, embracing a racing-inspired concept through casual outfits, sporty styling and sunglasses.

The accompanying interview offered a more personal look at their relationship, particularly when the members were asked what they would like to say to each other but might normally feel too embarrassed to express.

Arno thanked Xinlong for being the first to notice when something was wrong and approaching him to check on him. "I'll remember that kindness for a long time," Arno said.

Xinlong responded by reassuring Arno that he did not need to worry about how he acted around him. "I already know how you feel. You can just be comfortable around me. I'll be the one to adjust to you," he said.

The conversation also turned to their shared ambitions as members of ALPHA DRIVE ONE.

Asked what reaching the top together would look like, Arno said he hoped their music would eventually be heard everywhere.

"I want our music to be playing anytime, anywhere," he said. "I want to become an artist who can have a positive influence on people through that music."

Xinlong offered a more numerical goal.

"I hope five out of every ten people around the world know ALD1," he said, referring to the group's abbreviated name.

The interview comes as ALPHA DRIVE ONE continues promoting its latest digital single, "Talk to me," released on October 22 at 6 p.m. KST.

The track features an atmospheric sound inspired by the ocean, accompanied by vocals that highlight the individual members' styles.

A music video for "Talk to me" is scheduled for release on October 27.

The group's appearance in Dazed also follows a series of fashion magazine features involving ALPHA DRIVE ONE members since their debut.
