Four-member female group Brown Eyed Girls’ JeA started her Naver V app live broadcast Thursday at 9 p.m., titled “A Seoul citizen who knows how to enjoy Hangang River.”

Ahead of the show, she uploaded a post that read, “I am now in Jamwon area in Hangang River, and I will buy some fried chicken for those who come to see me until 9:30 p.m.”

The 34-year-old singer then gave a brief explanation about her upcoming two-track mini album “Bad Girl,” and partly unveiled her music video without any sound.

As three people arrived at the place, she got out of a car, and began strolling around the park with them and her two puppies, named Bandal and Mongsil.

Later, she mentioned about the other track, titled “Island of Tears,” saying, “I’ve recently had many interviews with journalists from local media outlets, and I think it was well-received by them.” The song was composed right after she came back from a Paris trip, and she said she cherishes it a lot.

“I am now on a diet, and lost 3 kg weight, eating only 500 kcal a day for six days,” she added.

In the end, she pledged that she would also treat Samgyeopsal (grilled pork belly) to 60 fans on a first-come-first-served basis, if the lead track “Bad Girl” ranks at 10th place. Jea wrapped up the live show by saying “I love you so much Korean and global fans.”

The album was released on Friday on several Korean online music websites, including Melon, Naver Music, Genie and more.

Thursday’s lineup also included Hyeri of Girl’s Day. She started off the live broadcast at a shooting location with Kang Min-hyuk of K-pop boy band CNBLUE.

The two are currently shooting for SBS’ new drama series “Entertainer” which kicks off April 20. She plays a protagonist, named Green, and is an older sister of Haneul, played by Kang, in the drama.

Then, they watched a teaser trailer for their drama, and applauded for a while.

At the end of the session, one of the fans asked them to hold a self-event for the drama. They replied that they would do something if viewership ratings hits 15 percent. They did not exactly decide what to do, but confirmed that they will announce a special event after consideration.
