Tuning in on Naver V app’s Sunday lineup were the newest idol stars from S.M. Entertainment -- NCT (Neo Culture Technology).

The group aired its fourth episode of “Life in Bangkok,” kicking off with the members browsing books at a local library. They are soon interrupted by two Thai women saying, “You’re not supposed to talk loudly in the library.”

Embarrassed, the members stop what they were doing, but to Thailand-native member Ten’s surprise, he looked up to realize the two women were actually his former schoolteachers.

“Wow, so we get to hear two different perspectives about Ten, one from his elementary school teacher when he was just a kid, and the other from his high school teacher who will tell us what he was like as a teenager,” said one of the members, as they gathered together for a quick Thai-language tutorial.

The members then jetted off to try out the local cuisine recommended by Ten including tom yum goong soup and pad Thai.


Also gracing Sunday’s star-filled V app lineup was the young YG soloist Lee Hi.

Fresh in the midst of her new album return, the starlet broadcast her episode from the YG training center’s restaurant, hoping the quiet atmosphere would better please her fans.

“In my last episode I was filmed on V app while in a car, but a number of fans said it was too chaotic and difficult to follow along, so I hope this is better,” said Lee, kicking off her spot.

Lee went on to spend the remaining 20 minutes answering fans’ questions regarding her new music and music video.

“What’s my favorite song from my new album? That’s a very difficult question to answer, but I would have to say ‘My Star’ is definitely one of my favorite tracks. It was also produced by Teddy, so you can’t help but like it,” she said.


The JYP ladies of Twice also returned to their V app fans and recreated the night of their official K-pop debut, getting comfy and cozy in their pajamas.

“What has it been, like 6 or 7 months (since their debut)?” the ladies asked. “And I think it’s also been like a month since we’ve done a live V app episode. Long time no see.”

The ladies filled in fans about what they did during their long absence from V app, including filming a number of advertisements as well as attending this year’s KCON music festival.

Similar to that of their official debut night, the Twice members watched as the music video for the group’s latest single, “Cheer Up,” was released.


Also on yesterday’s V app lineup were the members of B1A4 celebrating their fifth anniversary, in an episode that racked up more than 10.6 million hearts.

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.
