Girl group Dal Shabet hosted their first show on Naver’s V at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, cheerfully greeting their global fans in Korean, English, Chinese and Japanese.

“This is the show where only the hotshot celebrities appear,” the members said.

Member Subin said she already watched Wonder Girls’ makeup show and leader Serri said that she has seen all of Big Bang’s live-streaming broadcasts.

The girl group, which debuted in 2011 but hasn’t stood out so far in the K-pop scene, introduced each member using online search keywords linked to them.

Browsing the Internet, Subin proudly said, “Oh. My keywords are Subin’s bikini, figure and beauty.”

Serri’s relevant keyword was “school.” She said, “Oh, I graduated from women’s high school, middle school and college.”

Regarding the keyword “pregnancy” of member Jiyul, she explained that this is because she “played a pregnant woman in a movie and drama,” dismissing any speculation.

At 8 p.m., N.Flying’ bass guitarist Kwon Kwang-jin hosted a show titled “FNC Real Life.”

“This is my room where I work,” Kwon said, showing all the stuff he has such as an air cleaner, speaker, computer, keyboard and photos.

When a fan said he had nice hair, the guitarist proudly said, “Today I didn’t wear any makeup, didn’t use any editing tool for the camera and just washed my hair a while ago,” stressing his natural look.

When one of his fans asked some tips on losing weight, he said, “I exercised a lot. I did it from 10 to 12 a.m. and 3 to 5 p.m. again.”

At 8:50 p.m., Shinhwa’ Jun Jin hosted a show at a photo shoot, wearing a black turtleneck.

“I changed my hairdo like a rebellious child and I wear a turtleneck which I like,” he said.

When a staff asked, “Why do you use the honorific (to his fans)?” Jun said, smiling, “I don’t want to talk down to my fans because I respect them. Don’t push me.” In South Korea, some do not use the honorific when talking to younger people.

Even after starting shooting for the photos, he kept paying attention to the fans on V, by flashing a V sign or drawing a heart with his fingers.

At 9:30 p.m., model Choi Sora hosted a show titled “Sohot Sora.”

The 23-year-old model said, “I was supposed to shoot at the New York Fashion Week but I couldn’t go there due to the delay in getting a visa.”

Instead, she shared some tips to endure a long flight.

Showing American pain relief brand Arnicare’s cream and compression stocking, “With these two items, I don’t have to worry about swollen legs.”

Choi also said she takes some sample cosmetics and face mist to avoid dryness during a long flight.

When a fan, who is 170 centimeters in height, said she still wants to be a model, Choi said, “Don’t give up. Confidence is the most important.”

At 9 p.m. Monsta X appeared on the show hosted by Arirang TV’s variety show “After School Club.”

The emcees asked them to dance to their songs which sounded faster than the original songs.
