Samuel, a contestant on the second season of Mnet’s audition show ‘Produce 101,’ on Wednesday aired his first live broadcast titled “I’m Ready” via Naver V app, signaling that he is ready for a debut.

“I still have all the gifts from my fans. I really appreciate those,” he greeted the fans in three languages -- Korean, Chinese and English.

The 15-year-old singer also mentioned his fanclub “Merona,” saying he doesn’t know what it means but thinks the name is pretty.

Samuel headed to the recording studio and gave a sneak peek of his first mini album to be released in August, with his producer Brave Brothers. They introduced “I’m Ready,” a hip-hop track that perfectly fits to Samuel.

“It’s very awkward to listen to the songs I recorded,” he remarked.

Brave Brothers told the fans that Samuel put his everything into the album and they won’t regret anything when they hear the songs.

“We only unveiled the songs from mini album today, but all tracks of the regular album are already prepared,” the producer said. “We are going to hold this kind of time from now on. Please support Samuel with lots of love.”

Kim Tae-woo of now-disbanded group g.o.d took to Naver V app Wednesday with his fellow member Park Joon-hyung to promote his new album.

Kim and Park were in the broadcasting studio for the MBC’s talk show “Radio Star,” asking fans to make sure to tune in next week.

Kim showed off his new hair color “Platinum matt.” Park teased him, saying his new transformation looks like “an old Peter Pan.”

“My album came out to be satisfactory. It’ll be a good album for everyone as many people participated in it,” the singer introduced his new album “T-With” to be released on July 3.

“I like the part where the melody bursts when it should. I’ll give 9.5 out of 10 points,” Park commented after hearing Kim’s new song.

When Kim said he is not featured in his music video that was taken abroad, Park responded the album would “succeed,” bringing a lot of laughter to viewers.

Boy band MVP celebrated their 100th day through Naver’s live broadcast Wednesday, kicking off the video by singing “Congratulations.”

“Today is a very happy day. Tears are welled up in my eyes,” said Kanghan, leader of the team. “I remember the days we had prepared so hard for our debut, mastering the difficult choreography of our title track ‘Take it’.”

The members said that they suffered from the aftereffects of their fan meeting held on Sunday, saying they had so much fun with the fans.

“Some said they were sad that they couldn’t make it to the fan meeting, but it is just the beginning. More fan meetings and concerts are waiting for you,” said Gitaek.

He also said he was very shy to wear cute animal costumes during the fan meeting as MVP is a group that pursues an intense performance.

“Even nice weather congratulates our 100th day, but we have to go for practice,” said Rayoon. “We are working hard to prepare for the next album, to show a better performance to the fans.”

Each of the members winked to the camera with various poses after one fan asked them for winks through the live comment section.
