It looks like WINNER is determined to take over the entire planet. Mino, Yoon, Hoony, and Jinu have already successfully crossed over to Japan and even toured in China prior to Taehyun's departure in 2016. But is it possible that the boy group is ready to conquer new territories? The idols are certainly open to the idea of heading for Europe to meet their fans across the pond.

The idea of WINNER going on tour in Europe is certainly an exciting idea, but fans have greater concerns at the moment. People have been urging YG Entertainment to release the boy group's performance in a recent Sugarman episode where they covered the Butterfly Effect song "First Love."

WINNER recently sat down for an interview with Dazed where they happily spoke about their new album EVERYD4Y. Yoon, Jinu, Mino, and Hoony even discussed their affinity for the number four, explaining that they "wanted the chance to reverse [the] negative meaning" of the numeral, which is usually associated with death. The idols also addressed the possibility of traveling to Europe to meet their other fans.

Yoon explained that flying to Europe "is not a definitive step to talk about" but admitted that WINNER actually "[dreams] of having a tour in the future." The singer also suggested the best way he and his fellow idols could cross over to the UK and Europe.

"If we want to make it happen soon, we need to show more songs and do more activities," Yoon said. Luckily, it looks like WINNER is already doing more promotions following the release of "Everyday."

WINNER recently made an appearance in Sugarman 2 where Mino outed fellow rapper DinDin for somehow stalking him before they met. In addition to that, the boy group performed their own version of the Butterfly Effect song "First Love." Fans who were watching the show were understandably excited about the possibility that the boy group's cover will be released after the episode. However, AllKPop reports that YG Entertainment had actually blocked the release of the remake, much to the chagrin of disappointed fans.

There is still no word on whether YG Entertainment will agree to release WINNER's cover of "First Love." Until then, fans will be flooding Twitter with pleas for the release of the song.
