V and Jimin of BTS went live on V app to have some fun with their fans by performing a short skit.

Relaxing on a bed, the two tried to find something fun to do. V suggested that they should do a short role-play, copying funny actions of young teenagers in Korea.

Enacting a scene from a famous Korean teen movie, V started the role-play, showing the usual start of a fight between students from two different schools.

“I heard you hit one of my buddies here,” he started off. As both members come from the southern part of Korea, they amused fans by speaking in the local dialect. The skit ended quite abruptly as one of the sides backed off saying “I‘ll let you go for today.”

Then, V tried to repeat the same skit in the Seoul accent, which made the characters seem way too gentle and polite to start a fight.
After the role-play, the two commented that they both had difficulties getting used to city life as they had strong accents. Jimin showed off his scary side by staring into the camera with a frown on his face, speaking fiercely with his Busan accent.

WINNER also appeared on V app as Seunghoon broke into their waiting room backstage.

The five of them were getting ready to go onstage at Mnet’s Countdown Live. They seemed to be a bit stiffer than usual as all of them were extremely nervous about their long-awaited comeback.

They requested fans to check out their album and watch the program set to air at 11 p.m. The five of them quickly said goodbye as they kept stuttering, with Seunghoon saying “I don’t think we’re in very good shape now. But, I hope we‘ll do great onstage!”

Girl group 4Minute went live as well, with the five of them all cuddled together in their dance studio.

The girls showed their natural side, with very light makeup on and casual clothing suitable for their practice.

They mentioned the upcoming album showcase, talking about how many fans were disappointed that they couldn’t attend the event. However, they pointed out that the event was limited to a small group of people to maintain higher quality.

Luckily, the showcase stage will be live on Naver’s V app, allowing the fans to freely watch their first ever stage performance. They also told everyone that there will be tons of opportunities to meet them up close after their official comeback.

During the show, Hyuna gave a short preview of the upcoming album, singing a part of their title song “Hate.”

Gayoon added, “Actually, the tune from the teaser video is quite off-track from our original song. When you hear the full track, you might be surprised how different it is from what you expected!”

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.
