Twice

Twice, JYP Entertainment’s newest girl group that debuted this year, put up three V videos of song covers Saturday night. The 16 members sang and performed rearranged versions of songs by their fellow JYP labelmates, including GOT7’s “Confession Song,” 2PM’s “A.D.T.O.Y.” and Wonder Girls’ “Be My Baby.”


Eric Nam


Singer, television host and V app regular Eric Nam popped up again on Saturday night, at a restaurant enjoying a late meal with some of his celebrity acquaintances. Seated next to the 27-year-old entertainer was Kim Dong-wan of veteran boy band Shinhwa; across from him was the rock-ballad icon Lee Seung-hwan, next to whom sat actress Kim Kyu-ri. The foursome enjoyed a fun night of Korean barbecued pork.


Madtown

Seven-member hip-hop boy band Madtown ? consisting of Moos, Daewon, Lee Geon, Jota, Heo Jun, Buffy and H.O., came on V app in the third episode of their broadcast series. Following last week’s clip, where the boys baked cookies for their fans, the seven members were shown standing outside in the busy streets of Seoul, surrounded by a hoard of screaming fans.

The boys then went on to roam the area for the rest of the episode, shopping for presents for their fans.


B1A4

Boy band B1A4’s Jinyoung appeared on V solo in the first of his broadcast series. The 24-year-old vocalist went on to host a radio program of sorts. Fans can send in their stories to jinyoungjjzr@gmail.com, which Jinyoung himself will read and reply to. He may even give you a call if you leave your contact information. Be sure to tune into V to hear Jinyoung offer advice to his fans. Look out for a prank call from teammate Gongchan, who disguised his voice and pretended to be a fan, though Jinyoung recognized him straight away.

Naver’s real-time broadcasting app V allows fans to interact with their favorite K-pop stars through live broadcasts. The app is available for Android and iOS. For more information, visit www.vlive.tv.
