Astro

(Naver V app)

Astro aired a live V broadcast on Sunday while on their way back to Seoul from Jinju, South Gyeongsang Province, where the group held a performance.

Originally a sextet, Astro held the broadcast without Locky who stayed behind for a more convenient start to the Chuseok holiday season, when people return to their hometowns. Locky conveniently happens to be from Jinju.

The rest of Astro stopped at a rest service area on the expressway. They snacked on bread and ice cream in the rainy weather.

During the long holiday, the members said they planned to read books and newspapers, go fishing with family and hit the gym.


April

April on Sunday played traditional Korean games on V, marking the beginning of the long Chuseok holiday.

April dressed in modernized Hanbok for the V broadcast, showing off an array of colorful Hanbok mini-dresses.

April started off by splitting the group into threes to play a game of Yut Nori. The game involves four sticks that are thrown like dice to move forward in the game. The first to reach the game board’s final station wins the game.

Next, the group played Jegichagi, in which the players kick a paper tassel up in the air for as many times as they can without letting it touch the ground. The player with the most number of kicks wins.

The losing three from April will wear joke props as a penalty at the next fan event. The props include a bald-headed wig, glasses with a red-nose attached to it and a funny-looking pair of pants.

Song Min-ho were busy playing a Nintendo game but joined the broadcast later smiling after winning the game.

Kim Jin-woo agreed to show his new flat to fans in the following broadcast.
