Girl group Laboum broadcast live on V app’s “IDOL x IDOL” channel Saturday to invite fans to their autograph event, which was held at the Times Square shopping complex in Seoul.

Member Soyeon opened the broadcast: “Hello, we are Laboum! We are busy signing autographs here with our fans.”

This is our song ‘Caterpillar,’ isn’t it nice? Enjoy listening to it,” she added, referring to the song that played at the venue.

During the autograph session, the group not only offered autographs, but tried to interact with each fan by shaking hands and having a short conversation in a show of gratitude.

“This is our album cover, we’re looking up at the sky,” Solbim and Yujeong said, introducing their new album “Fresh Adventure” together.

“Actually I didn’t know this photo would be our cover, but we tried taking a picture lying down and it came out great.” Yujeong said.

Solbin added, “Inside our album, you’ll find each of our members’ photos and a randomly selected photo card that comes with an autograph. Whose card would you get?”

The two also checked real-time comments from V fans, saying, “Many fans are saying they like our song ‘Sugar Sugar.’ Thank you for your support!”

In the middle, Laboum also had a short Q&A session with fans at the venue. One fan asked them to pick their favorite photo from the album, and ZN answered: “My favorite is the group photo at the back. We usually take photos smiling, but our CEO said not to smile for this and asked us to talk with our eyes. I guess this made the shooting memorable. What do you think of them?”

In the end, Soyeong wrapped up the show: “It was our first time to share our album on V live. We’ll come back on V again when we release our next album. Thank you for giving us so many hearts today.” The band waved good-bye to fans together with the V logo sign.

Girl quartet Mamamoo also appeared on V after wrapping up their official promotion for “You’re the Best,” the lead track off their first studio album “Melting,” on MBC‘s weekly music program “Show! Music Core.”

The girls started by saying, ”We had our last TV broadcast with ‘You’re the Best.’ Now it’s time to say goodbye.”

“We were able to make a ‘perfect’ finale stage, collaborating with BTOB members, they prepared a lot and did a really good job!” said Hwasa.

Leader Solar added, “Although ‘You’re the Best’ is done, it means a lot to us. We topped for the first time since our debut and so many things happened. Thank you so much to the fans.”

They then switched the topic over to their event coming soon, announcing they are going to have a barbecue party with fans on May. 7th.

“The details about the event will be announced via our website, please check it out!” Moonbyul explained.

The band wrapped up saying, “Looking forward to meeting you soon on May. 7th!”
