Taeil and Jeno of NCT livestreamed together for the first time reassuring fans that they are close.

The two were featured in the second episode of the band’s show that tries to bring members of different units, NCT 127 and NCT Dream, closer. It is not us who are awkward, but the show puts you in such state, the pair insisted.

After two failed attempts due to poor internet connection, they tattled to viewers that there are some people who are doing some crazy stuff in front of them.

“We’ve known each other for seven years,” they said, “but just didn’t have time to spend time together,” while Haechan, staying out of view, asked if they were sure.

The two asked fans to tell which one from each unit they want to see together if there were to be more episodes, confiding that Jeno recommended Jungwoo -- “plain nuts” -- and Chenle and Taeil picked Jaehyun and Jisung.

IZ*ONE's Hyewon, Nako spend evening together

(Naver's V Live)

Kang Hyewon and Yabuki Nako of IZ*ONE talked to fans for two hours enjoying some instant noodles in Yabuki’s room.

A bandmate came and told them Lee Chaeyeon is making carbonara pasta and the two said they will have it as well as Kang danced with joy.

Yabuki told Kang that she is thinking of getting another wardrobe and the latter who has the same one, peeked into one of the closets and suggested reorganizing and getting more hangars.

They went through pictures on Yabuki’s phone, murmuring that they want to show some of them to viewers, but cannot.

“Yesterday, we had an activity but the air conditioner at the site broke down and it was suffocating,” Kang said. But she still obliged Kim Minjoo’s request to take pictures even though she could feel her sweat trickling down the hair line.

“Then I felt a breeze near my legs and realized that Minjoo was blowing wind to her legs with a fan while I was sweating!” she tattled to fans.

Twice's Dahyun bids good night

(JYP Entertainment)

Dahyun of Twice did a “voice-only” livestream well past midnight.

She has been to work, had a light meal -- “more like a snack” -- and was ready to go bed but wanted to drop by for a while before calling it a day. I hope I did not wake you up when you were about to sleep, said the idol wondering out if it was too late.

“Put this on like a radio and listen if you want to ... I will not stay for too long,” she said adding that she has to go to work early next morning as well.

“A really good thing happened to me today,” she said recounting how she went to a convenience store, got two ice creams and found out that they were eligible for a buy-one-get-one campaign.

Going through the comments from viewers, Dahyun was surprised that they already knew she has changed her hair color.

“It’s not black though, although it can look like it. It’s actually very dark brown,” she said admitting that she originally wanted to just touch up roots.

GOT7's Yugyeom looks back at first performance

(Naver's V Live)

Yugyeom of GOT7 took to V Live from the comfort of his home in the living room, not his studio where he usually livestreams, since it is too hot there.

He soothed his pet Dalgyeom that was growling and said that the dog has become gentler. It looks like a bear, he said, scoffing when viewers told him that Youngjae said it looked like a black goat in his previous broadcast.

At a fan’s question, the musician looked back at the first time the band performed onstage.

“The showcase for (debut song) ‘Girls Girls Girls’ ... I thought I wouldn‘t be so nervous and pretended that I wasn’t but really was so tense,” he recalled. He did not see why they had to practice so much before going up there.

“We practice that much but still it wasn’t perfect. I think I even made a mistake,” he added.
