Peniel, Ilhoon and Sungjae joined him and acknowledging that they have not seen each other for quite a bit. Peniel and Ilhoon reported that they both are doing radio programs while Hyunsik said he has been staying at home recently. “I have not been cutting my hair or shaving. I try to work on new songs but it’s not going well,” he said with mock seriousness.

Sungjae has been appearing in an entertainment program in which an audition tape of him at 14 was aired. “I remember meeting him around that time. He hasn’t changed a bit,” said Hyunsik. This led to how they cannot believe that they met almost a decade ago and the group has been around for a full seven years. After a round of games that picked the youngest Sungjae as the leader, the band vowed that they would do their best and be there for the fans to celebrate the 70th anniversary.

Each was given a headphone with music blasting and was asked to guess given words their partner was mouthing.

Dahyun got all questions right including soddeoksoddeok, a popular snack of sausage and rice cake on a skewer. Momo, however, managed to get only two before she ran out of time.

Sana started off her turn shaking her body to the music from the headphones but it was harder for her and Tzuyu, both non-native speakers of Korean. Trying to guess the answers, their voices grew louder and louder and Dahyun had to let them pass some words while Sana threw random words. “It must be so hard if foreigners played this game,” said Momo watching the two.
