+ "Frequency of the Moon with DJ Ppidi ☺ Let's meet on Frequency of the Moon on a rainy Friday night ☔"

vlive.tv/post/1-22367562

It's been a while since she's DJed, but she wants to tell Orbits lots of things since it's been a while. She mentions the cherry blossoms that she saw with Hyeju (+ the cherry blossom photos she uploaded), and asks Orbits what they've been up to first though.

She's eating a variety of things, taking lessons, thinking of Orbits, posting pics.

Q: What do you think about rose jjimdak?
Vivi: I think it'll taste good. Because rose tteokbokki is really good. I tried that one time and it was really a flavor that I liked. With a ton of cheese. And we like jjimdak too, so...

Vivi has eaten; she says she eats pretty early.

She learned a new Korean shortened phrase that she likes a lot, but she hasn't gotten to use it yet. She'll try to use it in conversation later when the guest is revealed.

The story: It's April, when you can't tell if it's summer or spring. Time goes by so fast. I like listening to music but it feels like I'm not listening to any new songs. Any songs you can recommend for to fit the weather these days?

Vivi says it'll be hard to guess this time since the story's not very specific. Vivi says it's time to change playlists with the changing seasons.

Vivi: She likes listening to music, and... What hint should I give? She has a mole on her face.

Today's guest is Heejin

Heejin said last time she put Vivid lyrics so it was obvious, but this time she made it way more ambiguous.
After reading the story Vivi thought about it a bit. But she'll give the song rec(s) later.

Neither of them have seen the Whats in my bag video that was just uploaded

Vivi doesn't think they have that much to share in their bags. Heejin said they were told that they'd do that video in advance, but both she and Chuu forgot about it, so the bag contents were really "real".

Vivi says yeah it's typically prepared in advance... If it's too real it could be too disorganized or otherwise surprising.

Heejin says she can eat anything (even things that aren't that good) so sometimes others don't trust her taste.

Vivi says Heejin likes sweets but also likes eating bland things, so Vivi thinks the two of them have similar taste, and trusts her if she says something's good.

Heejin doesn't like overly salty things that much. Prefers sweet things.

Heejin said she was craving sweets today actually. She thinks it's because of Olivia hye, who said she was craving a cake stuffed with strawberries this morning.

Vivi: Do you think she was requesting you to make that then..? Since you had the Baheekery, baking us all that...

Heejin: ah, I must've just missed the memo then.
Olivia Hye showed her the cafe and pictures of the cake and everything.
Then later Heejin started craving sweets and ended up getting brown sugar cheesecake.

Heejin apologizes to Hyeju for not picking up on the hints
I even recommended her another cafe... (laugh)

Vivi says if you're craving something you should just get it. If you try to deny it, the craving just gets bigger.
Heejin agrees.

Heejin likes baked goods, you know, she went to 강릉 once with her family. And there was a really famous bakery. Heejin's the type to stand in line for hot food places. There was a line even before it was open. (She went 30min early). And her family went in 1 by 1 not together

She sent pics to Vivi who remembers seeing that. Heejin said that her family spent 300,000 KRW (~270 USD). there, and she has no regrets, "it was a bread flex"

So when you talk to Heejin about breads and stuff, Heejin will have already tried it and will recommend other places too. Vivi thinks that though she and Hyunjin also like bread, Heejin's the most serious about it

After Hyunjin/Chuu were on "Bread is life" Chuu went back with the breads and explained all of them and Heejin already knew them all, "oh I liked that one, oh that one was good"

Heejin says that she and Vivi went on a date recently. She asks Vivi how many steps they took, vivi says 14000 or so. They just walked around nearby but they ended up walking a lot

Vivi: we planned to go to a cafe but went the wrong way. So we did a roundabout before getting there.
But the shopping buildings were bigger than they thought hence all the steps.

Vivi checked when she went hiking up the mountain, and that was 19000. Although those were all up/down steps/stairs.

Heejin recently went with Yena to a meat place and they ate a ton.
Vivi says that Heejin should've brought her too.

Vivi thinks she'll have to be on the lookout when she uses the shortened phrase that she learned.
Vivi says it's just a little harder to incorporate than expected, in the conversation they're having right now

She doesn't remember when she first learned it, but she thinks she heard it from the members at first. She says it's just fun to say, even. It makes her feel good when she uses shortened phrases like this

Vivi asked about the muyaho meme before because popped up all over the place a while back, so she does know about it. She's never seen the video though. She'll see it after today's FOTM.

Heejin says there's a ton of shortened expressions that she doesn't know. Vivi says it would be tough to know them all, yeah.

Q: Any shortened expressions that're just used within the group?
Vivi thinks they had one, but can't remember.
Who knows memes the most in LOONA? Heejin says Yves or Olivia Hye. She'd guess Olivia Hye.

Vivi says Jinsoul teaches her a lot of things.

Chuu and Choerry don't know these things very well, so Olivia Hye teases them often about that.

Heejin knows about Mad Monster from Go Won (I think this is a youtube comedy-type thing)

Heejin says Go won and Yves have good tiki-taka (they pass jokes and conversation off each other well).

Vivi: meanwhile Choerry's like "yeah ikr"
Heejin: or she's like "oh yeah, that!"

So Choerry's good at reactions like that.

re: heechuukebox, yes they have been looking at the song recs that are being sent by fans

Heejin reads chat coming up with a shortened phrase for Choerry(최리 / "최"고의 "리"액선) = "Best Reactions"

Heejin thinks Choerry's reactions on City and the Fishermen were legendary. They were all amazed while watching that.

Vivi talks about Choerry's talking tone and how it changes when she's on air, like it's not a lower energy, it's not that different, but she enters broadcasting mode.

Heejin says Jinsoul and Choerry were talking about dinner before she got here.

Vivi thinks Choerry won't go get dinner.
Vivi said she was on the couch and had no plans to leave the other day. Jinsoul was nagging Choerry there for like 2 hours to get her to go outside and hang out with her

Heejin says Jinsoul's really clingy with the younger members.
Heejin: but why not me?.. Lucky girl~

Members often buy the same things on their own without realizing though.
And Yves often forgets about things that she bought. She might even not recognize that something's her's. "Oh this is mine??"

Chat recommends them to sell it on the used market
They say that no one will buy them, because it's like stuff that's unopened, yet past the expiration date

Yves in chat: "what the"

Vivi's favorite season? She says it's hard to pick, but...
She thinks it's winter. She likes summer but the holidays in the winter, with her birthday, and snow she likes too, and new year.

(It is the real yves typing in English in chat btw)

They're talking about MCD MV filming (that's from a while ago) and how it was really cold between shoots when they were by the sea and how they used their own body heat while sticking together with some blankets

Heejin says she watches tons of clips of animals
Vivi said they learned animal sounds/onomatopoeia in English recently, like "meow" for cats, and she found it neat how other animals like horses had different sounds in English.

Like how snake was just "sssss" they had to ask the teacher to be sure

These two forgot about Im Mature (Im Yeojin's new nickname)
Heejin suddenly remembers though, how they made up that nickname in English class.

Yves in chat:

HEejin thinks she was really out of it recently. She was just showering, and squeezed her shampoo out onto her shower towel.
She realized once she squeezed the shampoo out and then was like huh?

Vivi also did something similar

Yves in chat:

Vivi recommends her to get some rest.
Heejin: at least I didn't wash my hair with toothpaste, I guess.

Heejin says it's possible to confuse human toothpaste and dog toothpaste though. She clarifies though that she has never used dog toothpaste before.
Vivi's never raised a dog

They talk about satoori among the members, Vivi says she didn't really think Heejin had satoori but Heejin says it shows up naturally in conversation from time to time. and Yves' also comes out when she gets excited
(Yves in chat: when do I get excited ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ)

Same happens with Yeojin, which Vivi found neat, esp when they were roommates.

Vivi tries some satooris (Gyungsangdo) herself while reading how it's done and Heejin says she did pretty well with the Seoul style

Yves frustrated in chat because Vivi did it all wrong and that she'll teach her
She says Heejin got it though

Yves calls them during FOTM to give them lessons on Gyungsangdo satoori, they got the voice going higher part, but the going lower part at the end was wrong

Heejin: i can hear the vlive thru your phone
Vivi: (laugh) oh this is like the last time Yves did this...

Yves ends the call, feeling extremely relieved that she called them and showed them how it's done.

Heejin says that her place's satoori is just all about the vibe
Yves asks her to call her dad to show how their satoori's done, but Heejin says unfortunately he's at work

Maybe next time she says. She kakaotalked her dad for the first time in a while with a pic of dumplings she made "is dad living alright?"
And her dad just responded
"driving rn"
And she said
"k"
And that was it

Vivi hasn't gotten to use the shortened expression that she recently learned, so Vivi suggests doing a skit to try to fit it in

Heejin finds it amusing how serious Vivi is about using this expression during fotm, and Vivi says yeah she's serious about fitting this in somewhere today

Vivi: ok imagine Orbits requesting selfies, stages, and stuff
Heejin: Okay, they're asking about when they can meet us next. Can they meet us often? Like thru fotm?
Vivi: [...] Wait? Is this right?
Vivi: ...쌉가능이죠!
T/N: LOOOOOL (it's kinda like... "f* yea you can")

Heejin's not sure if this is broadcast-safe so she tries to get Vivi
(T/N: it's kinda not ok for mainstream TV, at any rate)

Heejin: the fanmanager's head is looking down right now...

*She tried to get Vivi to stop saying it, she kept reading variants of it in chat

Go Won drops stuff from her top bunk sometimes, and she's above Heejin

Sometimes Go Won lies in bed looking at her phone in the upper bunk with her leg hanging off the side down below
Heejin saw that from below and tickled her foot

I'll add Vivi's song rec after the replay uploads, I missed it trying to think of how to translate 쌉가능...

Heejin's been listening to Ariana Grande - Main Thing

Heejin sings a few lines from "Main Thing"

Vivi says it's very nice, she'll have to listen to it.

Yves in chat says Baekhyun - Cry for love

Vivi likes Sejeong's Warning

She feels good just from the song intro.

Heejin compliments Vivi's pic that came up with the vlive, which Vivi just realized was there (it was uploaded at the same time as this VLIVE, instead of 30 mins in advance)

Heejin thinks that the FOTM today was the most packed FOTM that she's ever done. She can't think of why, but it just feels like it is. "It was just like a storm-"

Vivi: the weather was little cloudy today, there was rain on and off, it was really overcast in the morning and brightened up at lunchtime.
She tells Orbits to dress warm and not catch a cold, don't skip meals. It's been fun today with Heejin, thanks Orbits

(wrapping up)
Heejin: today was fun Bbi-D~
Vivi: really? That's a relief. It was fun for me too
[...]
Heejin: If you haven't eaten, go eat now!
Vivi: and if you did, go wash up and get ready to head to bed~ (T/N: it's 9PM KST)
[...]
-end-

Vivi's song rec was Wheein - Ohoo ("Afternoon")

Quick impression from Vivi of Jinsoul

*btw Heejin's calling herself the lucky girl here
