vlive.tv/post/1-24156371

@loonatheworld Can you hear me alright Orbit?
"Hi~"

@loonatheworld I've been doing well. What the? Hyeju's here?

Chat: "Ending Friday with OEC"
Lip: that's right.

chat: we miss you
Lip misses Orbits too

Lip says she's been doing well. Eating well, resting well, reading lots, listening to lots of music

@loonatheworld Choerry went first right? When she as going, I thought "I'll have to do mine a bit later" too.

Have you eaten yet? Choerry said she hadn't eaten, earlier. While Choerry was eating, I got a handcrafted burger.

@loonatheworld and fries, and sprite. Yves said "looks good, do a review for me"

@loonatheworld In the morning she got jjajangmyun

(sees chat) Whoa it's Park Chaewon! Chaewon I miss you! Our baby, our gowonie!

It's not bedtime for me yet.

Oh so it's raining a lot... Oh did it just flash outside? They said it would rain all throughout today.

"Wanna be the cookie~"

@loonatheworld Yves unnie i miss you too
Yves unnie sent me a text yesterday, saying "u alive?"
I said "yeah unnie I'm so bored"
She said "really? feel how precious I am"
Lip: I'm always feeling that ❤️
Yves: ah you're all grown up

@loonatheworld Oh I watched a movie but... I forgot what it was

It was really good though. I was just like "wow" a lot.
"A Star is Born" I teared up while watching it. I told others I knew about it too, recommending it.

@loonatheworld Heejin's teaser! I saw it. Her crying acting improved a lot. We were talking about that [crying scene] in the group chat a lot while Choerry was doing her vlive.

@loonatheworld She asks what Orbits have been up to

@loonatheworld Going to after-school classes? Aw, be careful, it's raining.

@loonatheworld What songs do I listen to when it rains?
Mmm, when it rains... (thinking)
What do I listen to? I think it's always different.

@loonatheworld Lately I've been listening to Ruel - Distance

I've been listening to old songs lately, I think.

Oh Younha sunbaenim's Umbrella? Should I play that?

(Reading chat) Old songs? Rain51db? i've been listening to loona songs a lot lately too.

BGM: Epik High / Younha - Umbrella

(chat asks lip to do the rap part too)

chat: want to sing with jinsoul unnie?
should I sing with her?

Hmm should I call jinsoul unnie?

Jinsoul on the phone
Jinsoul asks Lip to raise her volume
Lip: i have this on on my tablet instead of my phone, maybe that's why.
Jinsoul: whenever you shuffle or move around the volume changes...

Jinsoul: nice to see you Obits. No but earlier, you said "we're ending Friday with OEC" and I was thinking "ah am I kicked from OEC then...?" I don't feel like doing a vlive today. Maybe tomorrow I'll feel more into it...

Jinsoul requests Lip to sing a song

Jinsoul: recommend a good-morning song.
Lip: they'll need to sleep soon, why a good-morning song?
Jinsoul: Oh I mean a good-night song!
Lip: talking all weird like that,
Jinsoul: sorry I've been struggling lately.
She's not tired though since she got up at 2PM today

Jinsoul: because the a/c's broken here...

Jinsoul got a fan from Hyeju in the meantime though

Lip: OK I'll take song request from Orbits.
Jinsoul: can I leave now?
Lip: ask a word?
Jinsoul: i wondered if I should put on a chic concept for this or be soft, but because of your volume... (she says they're doing alright)

Lip asks for a final word from Jinsoul before leaving*

Jinsoul: I'll do a vlive sometime, but Kim Lip's the last one for today, so go for 2-3hours!

Lip told Jinsoul that she'll call her and Hyeju also came in saying "me too"
Lip: ok cutie

She'll call Hye now

Hye: Wait this is too surprising. hold on. I was listening live but you called so quickly, surprising me.
Lip: Miss Son Hyeju, anything you wanted to say?
Hye: No
Hye: i was saying everything I wanted to in chat.

Lip was wondering why Hye was so eager to get called.
Hye: I'm bored

Hye had Agujjim (Spicy Braised Monkfish) for breakfast, after telling herself she'd diet starting tomorrow yesterday
Lip: weren't you holding a bag of chips--

Lip: so what will you eat tomorrow?
Hye: I'll ACTUALLY start dieting tomorrow. For real for real

Lip "I had a good time watching fishermen&the city"
Hye: You didn't watch it though

Hye talking about how she requested The Shower during Choerry's vlive but she said she liked Knee and played that as BGM
Choerry didn't see that message apparently

Hye was very happy that Lip played her song (Umbrella)
Lip: Oh that was you? I saw an Orbit say that. So I played it.
Hye: "omg" I thought you played it because I asked...

Yves in chat: Hey Son Hyeju I miss ya

Hye: i'm going to enter the orbit group chat again now. (vlive chat)
Lip: a word for Orbits before you go?
Hye: Orbits we've got a long way to go... Bye~

Lip: that was a very realistic voicecall. No more voicecalls now. Have a conversation with me now.

She says they're eating very well and doing quite alright

Yves sent her a text "i'm having a good time listening to your song"

Q: Have you seen Rang Zong / The Medium yet?
Lip: I can't handle horror that well so I haven't seen it.
She says horror hasn't been hot in a while, but the members said they wanted to see it when it came out

(Reading chat) Oh it's fun?
Oh has it already come out?

After the members came and left in a rush, it feels kinda... Empty

Since Jinsoul unnie asked me to sing... I want to sing one, I'll take song requests. But I can't sing like "ahh!" here right now.

Lip also asks for movie recs

Lip: Songs I've been listening to lately?
I've been listening to a lot of music lately. Tons of music. What I'm listening to is...

Did you see the rainbow yesterday??

I didn't...! I saw a ton of pictures of it though.

Lip has seen Cruella She saw it with Haseul a whiiile ago

chat: Sing "yum yum"
"Yum yum yum~"

Lip: Yum Yum is really... uhh... I think I was a lot less cute than I thought. I thought I worked really hard, but getting that type of voice out, is really hard I think. I definitely smiled while recording. But after hearing the song,

it felt like I was the only one not smiling. I thought it could come across that way. So I learned something through that, and so that song helped me develop (as an artist)...

But everyone, it's not that I want to be cute. But for that song, it's an uplifting, energy-giving song. I felt like I didn't do that so I feel bad, okay? It's not that I want to be cute!

Yves unnie said "that was lovely, it would be better if you could be louder"
Do I need to raise the volume? I'm talking really loudly...

Lip sees lightning again
I still remember this, for yyxy's one way. The day it came out. I was with Yves and maybe Hyeju/Go won... Maybe not.

I picked one way as my favorite then. It's still on my playlist.

(She sings along to yyxy - one way for a bit)
The voices of all four members here come out pretty similarly in this song. I remember trying to figure out who sang which part.

(listening for a bit while singing along still)
this part sounds like choerry even..?

Lip (end of one way): "...but i still love you" (in Go Won's voice)
go wonie~
her voice is so pretty.
What song should I do next...

Oh but really, everyday, I probably listen to this like 5 times.

Wendy - When this rain stops

I still listen to it, it's so good.

But this song's too hard, I don't think I can sing it now,

(she starts singing along to it)
Right, it's good, right? I like it a lot.

It seems that many of you like this song. In the car, when going around with the manager, I kept telling the manager to listen to it, and the manager complimented my taste. (T/N: i think)

Jinsoul, Hye in chat say that Lip can lower the volume of the song though

Lip wonders what the others are doing
(..)
Lip: I guess we're like family

Yeojin was like "unnie I missed you so much!!!" earlier

Lip says even if she plays the song quietly the playback comes across really loud so maybe she can't sing in this setup

Hyeju after they video-called earlier was like ok all done then right? (hangs up)
Yves at least said bye before hanging up
Yeojin tried to get Lip to not go

Lip does feel that the (abrupt ending of the) activities was a shame - she's been checking out the solo cams and stuff

Q: did I live with Jiwoo during school? Not like that, we just hung out all the time together.
There's a crosswalk in front of the school. It's just one minute away from the school entrance but we'd always wait there to get to school together.

But when it was really late and we thought the other wouldn't make it, we'd step inside school grounds and wait a bit longer there instead of at the crosswalk.
If it was too cold we'd text each other saying it was too cold and go inside early.

Hobby lately?
Lip: Mmm what is there...?

I'm thinking.

I've been reading. Doesn't suit me, but.

I used to never read at all. But while reading, there's a lot of things I can learn about how others think. So I've been reading a bit.

Hyunjin's into the unknown... She stopped for a while but I think she's slowly bringing it back...

Q: Can go won cook now?
I haven't seen her cook.

Q: Diary?
I still maintain it but haven't been writing in it lately.

Q: Please wink!
Lip: even if I do, you can't see it! I'm winking now...

Today's TMI:
I'm sitting at the desk and doing a vlive. In front of me, I can see the burger that's left over from when I ate. It was good.

Wow Jinsoul's monitoring so intently. I'm moved. She keeps texting me. "you can lower the song volume"

Sorry but I don't plan on singing anymore...

It's not that I don't have an appetite. I eat a ton. Well, I dont eat a ton. I eat well. I'm just always hungry.

Lip: Hyeju's here? Why can't I see any of her comments?
She asks if she has the sirens in her name

Speaking of Hyeju, watermelons - I never really had watermelons in the summer. But after meeting her... Maybe this is with all the members too. I've been having tons of watermelon

I have watermelon in the fridge now. Like 5 times a week.

We influence each other a ton, living together. For sweet things, members who didn't, started to...
Actually I started eating really sweet things because of Heejin. I used to only eat Korean food mostly.

Lip: I can't cook

Heejin and Lip tried to not have sweets for a day but gave up on that day

Lip: I'm the last member to do a vlive today.

Hye in chat: If I'm being impersonated, I'll just not leave comments again, won't I?

Lip finally sees a Hyeju comment, which says that she's also started to eat more sweets than before

Lip says Hyeju can't eat too many sweets still, Hyeju says it gets to be too much after having a few

Lip wonders when she'll see Orbits again

(silence)
Lip: What should I say?

Lip: since it's just voice-only... It would've been nicer if I could show you my face..

What is sakuranbo? But Heejin was so good at that. How does she know all that?

Referring to:

https://twitter.com/jjjjjiinnnnn1/status/1413951680698195970?s=20

Q: Thoughts on the Heartbeat cover?
talking about the part where they climb on top of each other and how they decided to do that. She thought they'd just do it impromptu/casually but the others started practicing a few days before even. In the waiting room they practiced

and they even drew the formation in the group chat, so yeah they practiced a lot for that part

And they decided to have Go won do the ending as well (she wanted to do that part; she wanted everyone to get blown back on the beat)

Hyeju said the sunglasses fit her outfit that day really well so they had her wear that. So they decided there they'd all leave the stage for her to do that part solo

Lip: they were all so into it. Really into kpop. Heejin was the one who was really into the climbing part too..

She said they had a ton of fun with the cover and laughed while watching it back again too

On covering "If", she sang the whole song for that, that was a new experience for her as well. They didn't get much time to practice for it
Heejin and Lip tried practicing harmonizing for some parts the day before or so

Lip: Spider man was on TV so she watched that earlier

Disney movies? I like those. I like Beauty and the Beast. and the songs in that movie. I liked it since I was young, so.

Q: How do you have the members saved on your phone?
I like having everyone saved properly on my phone. It's different on messenger apps (like kkt) though. But for phone numbers, their full names.

There's an Olivia Hye Impersonator (and the real Olivia Hye's in chat noticing)

Adding -unnie to the older members' full names rolls off the tongue for Lip (like Hasooyoung unnie, johaseul unnie, jung jinsol unnie)

But Lip says she'd get upset if the members call her like KimLip-unnie, it feels too stiff

older members can call me jungeun-ah
younger members can call me lip-unnie
jungeun-unnie is ok too
"ya kim lip" might actually hurt my feelings though.. ahh!!

Yves was like how're you getting hurt from things like this? and I guess thinking about it, yeah..

Calling me princess? Mmm, we don't call each other princesses much, so...

jinsoul in chat: I/we call you sensitive princess though

Calling each other "honey" - choerry and haseul mostly do that, some if they're in a certain good mood
Lip: you know if you say "we should use this" then you don't want to because of that? keke

Lip: Hyunjin's really shy

Hye in chat: In the past and in the future I don't think I'll have a reason to say "honey"(/jagiya)

Jinsoul in chat: when you get tired you call me "honey" though 🥴

She turns on a song very quietly
I can't hear this myself, even.

BGM: Frozen by Sabrina Claudio

She tells listeners to take their vitamins and drink lots of water

Hye's impersonator in chat swore, says Jinsoul in chat

Routine these days?
She got up, ate, washed up, watched some TV, read books for a bit, watched Choerry vlive, ate, and now she's here

It seems that she's sleeping at 11:30pm lately, Kim Lip sleeping pattern. Got up at 7ish

bgm: IU - Love Poem


Lip also stretches in the morning
Lip: How long did Yerim go for? 1.5hours? 1:20?

How long do I have left? How long should I go?

(reading chat) yerim with 3 hours? nonsense!

She went til :25? Then I'll... how long should I go? I'll go til :35 then leave.

Go until 3AM? You all need to sleep!

Lip says she's thankful for all the kind words. She wants to do more,

She's been feeling uncertain leading up to the cb but all the love from Orbits have made her feel better

bgm: Kwon Jinah - Flower Heart

Am I setting too much of a mood...? Maybe it's just my environment. I have all the lights off here (T/N: it's 9:26PM KST). All the comments are getting so wholesome. I'm touched.

I'm not crying everyone. They say LOONA only cries 3 times.
At concerts: in front of orbits, in front of orbits, in front of orbits

(reading chat)
Not three times a day!

Oh this song's really good. I don't know about my playlist, it has all kinds of stuff.

This is a big TMI but my unnie really liked this drama.

From Perhaps Love:


For me, dramas for my youth, were like Dream High.

Lip: I tried watching Perhaps Love once but never actually got around to getting through it.

Lip: Oh, I mean Dream high 1

We've always done voice-only vlives like frequency of the moon right? but now like this... And two in one day, I think it's the first time. But being able to do this is nice.

Yeah, solo vlive? I think it's like the first time. I've always had other members to help.

But doing it alone... It's hard! I'm realizing how the members are important!

But Choerry was so good! Today for me this is a beginner's... Yeah. But isn't this natural for me then?
I'll be more of a pro next time.

It feels like my first vlive where I just read the comments a ton. It was nice to see that you've been doing well.

But next time I'll do better. It's still :34 everyone. I actually don't feel like turning this off. Though going til 3AM would be a tad too long.

I slept really last night after all...
No, saying thank you for just turning on vlive...
Yves unnie said go until tomorrow? Should we go til tomorrow?
Leave VLIVE on while sleep? Eh

I've been sleeping really early lately.

Can't sleep like that with a fixed schedule during promo activities, but right now I can. I might sleep a little after 10PM today...

Thanks for staying with me even though it's late. It coulda been kinda boring.. so thanks. I didn't say that much, so I feel really sorry about that.

"I'm having so much fun i'm tearing up"
Thank you,

and thanks for listening to my rambling.
It was a very beneficial vlive? Thanks orbit... Orbits have such kind words.
(...)
I'm just reading chat.

I'm really turning this off at :40!

Kim Lip: Let's pick a last song.

Taeyeon - Weekend

I really think Taeyeon's so pretty. I yelled when I saw her.

After I leave, Orbits have to get ready to sleep. Let's get ready to sleep, everyone.

Let's all sleep at 10. Is that too early? There isn't someone getting ready for work now right?... Sorry if that's the case.

Oh it's Friday night isn't it...? Thanks for spending Friday night with me! I'm touched..

Since it's the weekend, have a good time. But don't go out. But have a good time.

It's Friday so maybe you can sleep a little later. Since tomorrow's Saturday.

And fighting for Monday.

But you never know, another member might be here to cheer you up for Monday.

Thanks so much for listening to me talk today. I miss you too Orbits! Thanks so much! I'm always thankful but I don't know how to say it.

Thank you for everyone's kind words.
(song ended) I'm really turning this off. I don't want to but I have to. I'm always thankful. I might be in the comments tomorrow / next time even. So don't feel too bad. It's Friday, so maybe we'll sleep between 11PM-12AM?

Good night!
