Broadcast date: Jan. 3
Starring: Teen Top, Park Si-hwan, Hong Jin-young, Mamamoo, Hwang Chi-yeol, Joo Woo-jae

Popular mainstream trot singer and TV personality Hong Jin-young kicked off Sunday’s Naver V app lineup, taking fans backstage to her dressing room.

During her break at the studio, Hong took fans through her personal beauty regimen as she was freshening up and preparing to return in front of the cameras.

“Hey guys, what color lipstick should I try on?” she asked as fans quickly responded with their choice.

After selecting red, Hong shared with fans that she has her own special way of smudging her lipstick using the tip of her finger.

“See, this is my special way of putting on lipstick. Oh my god, I just messed up,” the starlet burst out laughing as she accidentally smeared her upper lip.

Answering fans’ questions while she was getting ready, Hong also gave them a little taste of some trot dancing and singing to change the tone of the episode.


The young idol stars of Teen Top also took part in Sunday’s live broadcasts, during a music video shoot to greet their fans.
In the most casual manner, the Teen Top members started off their broadcast stuffing their mouth with food.

“Hello, we are on the set of our music video shoot, we will get to you guys as soon as we finish eating,” said the members.

Despite not planned any conversation topics to discuss with viewers, the idol stars still managed to rack up more than 1.4 million hearts simply talking about their meal and doling out general greetings.


Former Superstar K contestant and musical actor Park Si-hwan returned to the V app lineup after making his debut appearance last week.
On his way to dinner after finishing a video shoot, Park spent several minutes with fans in the car.

“My boss told me that he would take me out for a nice dinner,” said Park. When fans asked him about the menu, Park responded, “Actually I have no idea, I just always ask my boss to buy something expensive.”

The singer went on to discuss how he is now 30 years old and despite that his heart doesn’t quite feel that old. But he is trying to cope with the reality that he is longer considered “young” by many.


Fashion model Joo Woo-jae and the ladies of Mamamoo too returned to Sunday’s V app lineup giving their belated, yet much welcomed New Year’s greetings.

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.
