The Greatest Battle: How Big Ocean is Changing K-Pop with Sign Language (Interview & Tour Details)

This episode features an interview with Big Ocean, the world's first sign language K-Pop group, during a live podcast taping at Stony Brook University's renowned Charles B. Wang Center. PJ, Chanyeon and Jiseok discuss their journey, announce new album "The Greatest Battle," and upcoming tour plans. The group also imparts words of wisdom to young college students still navigating the uncertainties of life. The members share that they never dreamed of becoming idols due to a lack of representation for Deaf artists, but they encourage others to pursue their dreams despite difficulties. Big Ocean became the change they wanted to see. They advise students not to wait for perfect conditions to pursue their goals, but to take the first step confidently. Their goal is to make music accessible to everyone by using sign language to express lyrics, allowing audiences to 'see' and 'feel' the music, not just hear it. Following successful tours in Europe and the US last year, the group is preparing for tours in Europe, the US, Asia and Latin America.
