(Naver's V Live)

The Stray Kids bandmates took to V Live all together for the first time in a while to celebrate the release of their best album.

“There are 27 tracks in total,” said Seungmin, and he began to go through each one in order. He stopped himself after the fifth track, admitting that he might be the only one who knew the track list, and instead asked everyone what they’d been doing recently.

Changbin began by sharing how he was keeping busy -- creating a rapping tutorial for fans. Bang Chan was amazed by the idea, but when the leader said finding rhymes sounded so much fun, Changbin accused him of not keeping up with him. Lee Know made everyone laugh by confiding that he’d gained weight, but Hyunjin pointed out that he’d actually been working out a lot.

After almost an hour of chatting and playing games, the eight-piece act wrapped up the segment by dancing to “Double Knot” and offering viewers close-ups of each member.

Winner's Lee Seunghoon offers more style tips

For the second time, Lee Seunghoon of Winner appeared in an opulent print robe and livestreamed a lesson on style.

“There comes a time I get to do a sequel,” he said, admitting that he tends to be full of enthusiasm when he starts a series but lacks the perseverance to keep it up.

As he said in the first episode, this is about finding your own style although it isn’t easy, said the musician. It requires reflecting on yourself, as well as going through a series of missteps, he added.

With an embarrassed chuckle, he brought up three of his own worst fashion mistakes as examples of “style don’ts.” Once when he was promoting the band’s first album, he recalled, he’d worn floral-patterned high-top sneakers with skinny pants.

“It depends on who’s wearing this,” Lee admitted, but said pulling the socks up over the jeans was definitely over the top.

“I so wanted to look fashionable,” he said.

GFriend's Yuju enjoys small talk with fans

(Naver's V Live)

Yuju of GFriend went live from her room, keeping her fans up to speed.

“You might remember this place. I have done V Live in the exact same position,” she told viewers. She’d been meaning to chat with fans for quite a while, but the timing hadn’t been right until now.

When she saw comments saying she seemed to have lost weight, she said she probably hadn’t but added that it was a common thing for people to say to her. People always ask Sowon if she has gotten taller and slimmer too, said the performer.

She’d caught up with her mother that day and had Korean food. When fans asked if that was her favorite, Yuju explained that she liked Western as well and was just trying to limit her intake of flour.

“For some reason, though, I don’t feel full unless I have rice,” she confided.

DKB nervous but ready: Kpop Herald

Kpop Herald reporters Hong Dam-young and Yim Hyun-su sat down with nine-piece rookie group DKB.

The boy band debuted with “Sorry Mama” only 1 1/2 months ago and its members are still nervous, confided Harry June.

To help fans get to know the musicians better, the reporters had a bunch of questions ready and the interview followed the format of a game. Many of the bandmates picked D1 as the one who tends to be the most nervous, but he explained that he isn’t nervous at all as soon as he’s onstage.

“But I was quite on edge before taking to the stage for our showcase and the first appearance on television,” he admitted, adding that his hands had shaken visibly during the individual photography sessions.

Lee Chan, on the other hand, was all nerves for his final audition.

“I have seen the video from my audition recently and it was ... OMG,” he said as his bandmates cracked up.
