(Naver's V Live)

Bang Chan of Stray Kids marked the 80th episode of his weekly solo livestream.

“I probably should have prepared something but at least I’m planning to make it more fun,” he said with an apologetic smile.

He was in a black sleeveless shirt and assured viewers that he is quite warm since he has been practicing for the upcoming online concert. And the room where he usually does the live broadcast, for some reason, is always set to the same temperature year-round, he added.

“I’m really, really excited for the concert … because there will be a lot of stuff and we’re pouring ourselves into the preparation,” he said although he could not give out any details yet.

He did not want to raise fans’ expectations too high, but it will be fun, said the musician.

He took off his black baseball cap obliging some requests to show his hair. It is quite messy since I have been practicing, he said ruffling up the hair.

“I’m constantly battling with my hair,” he muttered putting back on the cap, “and in the morning it’s so frizzy I cannot skip washing it.”

Stray Kids gives sneak peek at upcoming concert

(Naver's V Live)

Before the leader’s live segment, the bandmates of Stray Kids took to Naver’s V Live to give fans a glimpse of their preparation for their online concert.

They had been struggling with the unstable connection and were happy that it was finally working for the third try.

“Have you seen the ‘God’s Menu?’” Bang Chan asked the viewers and Han feigned ignorance and answered that it was very cool. Not you, Hyunjin stopped him as everyone chuckled.

“We toned (the performance) down a little as we were worried that it might destroy the studio. Or the phone could have collapsed onto the floor,” joked Changbin promising that the actual performance on V Live will be 200 million times more powerful.

“Maybe it was our energy, our passion, that wreaked havoc on the connection,” Han mused.

Satisfied with the broadcast quality, the boys stood up and positioned themselves telling viewers that they would show “Back Door” this time.

TXT thanks fans for successful promotion

(Naver's V Live)

The bandmates of Tomorrow X Together went live after wrapping up their promotion to thank their fans.

We have an announcement to make, they began solemnly and Beomgyu murmured he did not know how to begin.

“Should I tell them?” asked Taehyun and the members nodded.

“Thank you for all your effort for the last three weeks,” Taehyun said breaking into a smile as the rest of the band clapped and burst into laughter.

“We wanted to trick you,” they chuckled and confessed that they even thought of use the title of the live segment as part of the prank but decided against it unless things got a little out of hand.

The idols asked how the fans liked the hearts they prepared for the last television appearance for this promotion admitting that it was a total disaster at the dry run.

Yeonjun’s heart, supposed to be stuck to the prop, flipped away during the rehearsal and he was left holding a thumb up, Soobin told viewers.

Victon’s Sejun spends free time on V Live

(Naver's V Live)

Sejun of Victon talked to his fans for almost 2 1/2 hours relishing free time that was given at a short notice.

He was given two days off until the day before after shooting the music video. But there has been a sudden change in choreography and he was unexpectedly given another day off, he told fans.

“So I’ve been staring into space wondering what I should do all day today,” he said sitting in a chair in his own studio at the company. He was happy to announce, though, that he now has a bed in the room.

“There’s been an upgrade, for sure, and I don’t have to sleep on the floor anymore,” he said with a satisfied smile.

The idol shrieked with delight when the coffee he ordered came. He assured fans that it was not alcohol.

“But as we’ll soon be returning, I sometimes pretend that it is beer,” he admitted.
