Why Samuel had to stop in the middle of impromptu BTS’ “DNA” cover

Samuel of Teenager got bored and went live on Naver’s V app Tuesday.

The 16-year-old star started off his broadcast with some shout-outs to fans who were commenting live. “Hola baby, hola,” he hollered back to a Spanish-speaking fan, and wished another fan happy birthday.

“There are too many comments so it’s a bit hard,” said Samuel, trying his best to interact with fans.
When asked by a fan, “Why are you bored?” he replied that he is bored “because today (he) just miss(es) ‘Garnets’ (Teenager’s fandom).”

“Today, I woke up, had breakfast, and this is what I’m doing right now,” he told fans, who were curious how he had spent his day. “I’ve had dinner but I’m hungry again. But that’s OK, I’m going to eat later,” he said.

Halfway through the broadcast, Samuel started singing BTS’ “DNA,” which was thwarted by his inability to remember the lyrics. “This song is really good but I can’t remember the lyrics,” he said.

But that only served to ramp up the adorable factor! That's OK Samuel, we still love you.

Will Momoland’s new EP be another hit?

Momoland teased its return only five months after the viral success of its EP “Bboom Bboom” in January.

A teaser for the lead track “Baam” was unveiled Tuesday on Naver’s V app. Momoland members showed off their quirky charm, partying in hanbok, or Korean traditional attire, and doing their own rendition of a fan dance.

The new album titled “Fun to the World” is set to be released in full on June 26. Momoland is setting out to consolidate its place in the K-pop world as more than just a one-hit wonder with the upcoming album.

Debuted in 2016, the nine-piece group consists of Hyebin, Yeonwoo, Jane, Taeha, Nayun, Daisy, JooE, Ahin and Nancy. In 2017, Momoland was nominated for the best new female artist award at the prestigious Mnet Asian Music Awards. It won the K-pop artist award at the 25th Korean Culture Entertainment Awards.

The Lovelyz vocalist performed live on Naver’s V app Tuesday, in a broadcast titled “Sujeong: The Live.” She covered alt-R&B singer-songwriter Dean’s hit single “Instagram” released last December.

“Your voice is just as precious as yourself,” one enamored fan commented.

Lovelyz is an eight-piece girl group consisting of Baby Soul, Jiae, Jisoo, Mijoo, Kei, Jin, Sujeong and Yein. The group debuted in 2014 under the label Woollim Entertainment with the EP “Candy Jelly Love.”
