Big Ocean, the world's first sign language idol, has expressed its ambition to overcome the prejudice of hearing impairment and promote our own music.

Big Ocean (Chan-yeon PJ Ji-seok) held a comeback showcase at Shocking K-pop in Mapo-gu, Seoul at 5 p.m. on the 3rd. Big Ocean will release its third mini-album "THE GREATEST BATTLE" at 6 p.m. on major music sites.

"THE GREATEST BATTLE" is an album with the theme of "Miraculously Winning Battle". "One Man Army," which declared "Alive" through the first track "Alive," chose to fight alone, "Back," which grinds its teeth from the defeated past, and "Cold Moon," which completes internal growth through restrained emotions, unfolds like an epic play, capturing the narrative of the big ocean in three dimensions. Through this album, Big Ocean tried to transform itself from its existing bright and hopeful image to a more intense and restrained atmosphere. The heavy charisma and sharp eyes revealed through various teasing contents, such as concept photos and music video teasers, visually embodied the keyword of the album "Battle," signaling the start of a new chapter.

"THE GREATEST BATTLE" contains a total of eight songs, including the double title songs "One Man Army" and "Cold Moon," as well as "Alive," "Back," "One Man Army," "Back," and "Cold Moon."

The double title song "One Man Army" is a motif of Admiral Yi Sun-shin's Battle of Myeongnyang and depicts his will to create victory in desperate situations. The song added meaning by all the members of the Big Ocean participating in the composition, and the combination of grand strings, heavy 808 bases, and traditional military instrument sounds maximized the tension of the battle.

On this day, the members of the Big Ocean said, "I'm nervous because it's my first showcase. We will do our best to make it a meaningful time, he said. "We put our story in this album as well. There were many twists and turns until his debut, but warm articles and photos helped him a lot each time. I will keep my gratitude forever and continue my activities," he said.

The three of us have lived a fierce life fighting against the prejudice of disability. However, I thought we weren't the only ones who had a fierce life, he said. "I wanted to support everyone in that everyone is making their own efforts in their respective fields."

On the reason for using Admiral Yi Sun-shin's Battle of Myeongnyang as a motif, Big Ocean said, "The Battle of Myeongnyang is one of the three major naval battles of the Joseon Dynasty, and it is a great battle that defeated more than 100 ships with only 12 ships. It touched me very much that I won a battle that seemed like a long shot," he said, adding, "The fandom name is a wave." Thanks to the waves, we are on our way to victory. That's why the keyword "Roaring Currents" touched me more."

"In terms of performance, the Battle of Myeongnyang reminded me of the Battle of Myeongnyang, and I wanted to show the frustration of the battle with many opponents by deploying a number of dancers who stand in formation of Hakikjin or express the enemy," he said. "There are three members, but 20 dancers play the role of enemy forces."

Big Ocean said, "The biggest prejudice that I had during my activities was the view that I could not do artistic activities because I had a hearing impairment. "My dream to overcome this and show my stage was to be an idol, and these three gathered their will and joined together as a big ocean," he said. "Experiencing the stage at the Swiss ITU General Assembly, technology was widely used for people, and it was a part that we could do more musically thanks to technology."

"We all have innate and acquired hearing impairments. Each person wears a separate artificial wow and hearing aid, so the degree of hearing is different. "Because this is so different, some are fast, some are slow, and others are entering the anchorage, so it was so difficult to match," he said. "I started practicing while looking in the mirror, but it may not be special in a way because it's one of the ways other idols practice a lot, but this practice method was very difficult and hard for us," he said. "That's how much we tried to fit each other better while relying more on and relying on each other."

At the same time, Big Ocean said, "While preparing for this album, I felt very proud and hard while watching the teaser together, so I was moved. "I was so happy and grateful ahead of the 2nd anniversary of my debut," he said. "I had a disability through the first album and the second album that contained my inner feelings, so I think a fierce battle that fits a more intense life became the theme of our album. Looking at us, the public is really cool. I want to hear the reaction that he had a venom, so I want to get a modifier called 'Dogidol'."
