Closing out the week on Sunday’s V app lineup were the superstar idols of B.A.P., who gushed about their latest album “Carnival.”

“Starting with track one, the song is so good!” the members exclaimed. “Right off the bat you just get that feeling like you want to go out and play.”

The members, along with their music producer, went on to explain the creative process behind each song on the album. The six-track EP officially dropped Monday and is the first new release from B.A.P since the group unveiled its previous EP “Matrix” last November.

“We travel a lot overseas, for concerts and other activities, and when the six of us are together having fun, it always feels like we are at a carnival,” they said.


Fresh off his first solo return in more than three years, 2AM’s Jo Kwon returned to V app limelight, giving fans some private voice lessons.

“As you can see in this room there’s just me and the piano so this is where I come to practice my singing,” said Jo Kwon.

The JYP Entertainment vocalist put on a mock vocal training exercise, giving fans a little taste of how he warms up his vocals during practice.

“I’ve learnt that some of the best ways to keep your vocals at their peak is to constantly hum, even when you’re not in the practice room,” he added, humming a little tune.

The singer’s short, 13-minute tutorial racked up nearly 150,000 hearts and more than 22,000 views.


Celebrating her birthday live on Naver’s V app was Mamamoo member Solar, along with her trusty sidekick and partner in crime, Moonbyul.

“I just wanted to thank everyone who wished me a happy birthday,” said Solar, whose birthday episode exceeded a whopping 1.56 million hearts and 40,000 plus views.

“We held a concert the other day and as soon as we got onstage, I saw all the fans in the audience holding up Happy Birthday signs,” she said.
“It was a very touching moment for me,” she added, holding up one of the birthday signs made by a fan.


Also on Sunday were the memories of B1A4, who compiled a short video diary of various clips they captured over the past several years, along with the return of model Joo Woo-jae.
