What's up, everyone? This is Mark Tuan
and I'm gonna play a game of song association with Elle.
I'll be given a word and I have 10 seconds
to either sing or rap that word in the song.
I've done this before with the group.
By myself, ugh, I'm kind of scared.
But before we get started,
you guys can go check out my new album, "The Other Side"
and grab tickets for my tour if you guys haven't
and I'll see you guys then.

"No Tears" by Mark Tuan.
The meaning behind the song
is just me leaving here for Korea.
And I didn't want my parents to have to worry
or like my family or significant other to be sad.
What the fans know of me is like the happy, the fun.
My new album, "The Other Side",
all the songs on there are pretty personal,
are really personal to me.
They're all just little stories about,
you know, my experience or like my emotions
in the past 10 years that I spent in Korea.
I wanted the fans to get to know me a little bit more.
It's, it's a pretty dark album
and I just want them to know that you know,
they're not the only ones going through
whatever hard times they're going through
and everything will get better.

GOT7 "Nanana".
We grew up training together,
so we're pretty much like family.
There's just always talking, always making jokes,
always like making fun of each other,
and the instructor kind of gets angry. (laughs)
We kind of get, get in trouble.
The musical journey for us, the seven of us,
we have such different colors and different styles.
GOT7 has its own color too.
We are more of a performance group
and then later on we kind of found our color.
So I feel like the fans can expect more
from the group later on.

The meaning behind the song is,
you get so caught up in your work
or whatever it is that you do.
You know, you kind of forget about yourself.
I feel like everybody needs to,
you know, appreciate themselves and not get so distracted
by putting other people first
