Broadcast date: April 27
Starring: Mamamoo, Ahn Bo-hyun, Cross Gene, Dia, Infinite, GOT 7

Ahn Bo-hyun made his first-ever appearance on the Naver V app Thursday.

“I’m nervous,” the model-turned-actor said starting off his first live broadcast. “But being able to communicate live like this seems really fun. I also think there’s a few people I know who are watching this as well.”

Ahn decided that the session would be themed “Ask Me Anything,” allowing live viewers to throw out any questions they had for the actor.

Ahn shared that he loves to cook and because of that, he typically prefers to eat at home rather than dine out. He also added that he is currently recording a new web drama as part of an SBS mini drama series, alongside Hong-bin of VIXX.

“We are almost done filming, this is our last week,” said Ahn. “You will be able to watch (the drama) through Naver as well.”


Also joining yesterday’s V app line up was Yong-seok of multinational K-pop group Cross Gene in a solo broadcast, during which he showcased his skills off stage and in the kitchen.

“Today is the opening day of ‘Yong’s Restaurant,’” said the singer kicking off the show.

“Prior to today, I posted a question on Instagram asking fans what the menu should be for today,” Yong-seok continued, adding that viewers suggested a wide variety of food including pizza, kebab and fried chicken.

“I was a bit stunned at all the suggestions -- viewers saying they wanted to see me fry up some chicken. Fried chicken should be eaten when it’s ordered by takeout,” he said grinning.

The Cross Gene member decided to go with fried rice. As it was the first day of “Yong’s Restaurant,” he wanted to whip up something basic and use a recipe he was confident in.


The members of Dia also aired a V app broadcast Thursday, revealing the second episode of the group’s you-only-live-once-inspired trips. This week they made a trip to Venus Fort, a large shopping mall complex in Tokyo, Japan.

Woo-hyun of Infinite greeted fans on the V app while he was driving to Hwasung Fortress to attend an event with his fellow group mates. Infinite member Lee Sung-yeol also joined the episode and revealed that he has been fully immersed in a strict workout regiments, adding that he has been exercising at least three times a day.
