aespa said they are so thankful for winning on a music show today!
DJ: Doesn't giving acceptance speeches come naturally to you now?
Karina: This was actually the first time we did a speech for a music show. We got 1 win for Black Mamba and unfortunately no win for Next Level
DJ: Any worries about your first US promotion?
Karina: Of course, we're worried about if we'll be well-received in the US... but we have trust!
Giselle: We trust you (in English)
Karina said that the iPhone that she threw in the MV was actually just a model phone-- it didn't turn on
Giselle was shocked because she thought Karina was going to throw an actual iPhone 13 for a second
DJ: You held a gun in the MV, right?
Winter: There aren't really any opportunities for me to hold a gun... I was worried about if I looked good on me since I was so awkward. Yoo Young Jin came to set that day and told me it fit me well! It made me feel a lot better
Comment: Ningning looks like "Ning-riana Grande" right now
Ningning has her hair in a high ponytail right now
DJ: You're going to start music show promotions next week... I'm especially looking forward to your encore ending stage at Inkigayo
DJ just asked fans to send in encore stage suggestions
DJ: In one month, you will celebrate your first anniversary. You're going to start promoting in the US before you turn 1 year old! That's a great feat
DJ asked Karina about her inspiration to start singing, which was SNSD's ITNW high kick
Karina: I never got to talk to them or even say that I'm a fan
Winter: I didn't even get to talk to Taeyeon properly. I couldn't look at her for longer than 3 seconds during Amazing Saturday
Karina just sent a video message to the SNSD members expressing her love for the members! She hopes that they know she's been a fan since she was young
DJ asked Giselle about her old notebook that she used to write her goals/dreams in
Giselle: I don't have it anymore... these days I use my phone's notes. I write about things that I feel lacking in and things I want to achieve. My goal for the cb is aespa vs aespa on music shows
There was a clown horn sound effect and Karina and Ningning started imitating it
The DJ suddenly stopped talking and said, "is this your new personal talent?" and asked them to do it again
Now they're doing Choi Joon impressions. In Korean, Chinese, and Japanese. Global group.
Winter said that she had a dream of being an idol ever since she was really young
She also said that she always finds things that are lacking whenever she looks back on her past performances. She shared that she's almost like a workaholic and perfectionist in that sense
Ningning talked about her YouTube interview from yesterday. In the video, Ningning shared that she sang on a small stage when she and her mom went to a shopping mall.
Ning's dad messaged her and said he was sad because he was also at the shopping mall but she didn't mention him
Ningning said that her grandma used to get her to sing when she was little and she developed her love for singing through that
DJ: Ningning's vocals were developed through 3 generations
DJ: Commenters are saying they want to see a "peek-a-boo" pose, special ability pose (armamentor, rocket punch, etc), cupid pose, and animal pose (animals that look like the members) for the ENDING POSE at Inkigayo (not the encore stage! My bad)
Since every member can move their ears on command, they agreed that their ending pose at Inkigayo would be to move their ears without touching them
aespa is doing their ending ment. They all said they really like Sohyun unnie and thanked her for making them feel so comfortable during the show!
Actually, they might not be talking about their next music show and not Inkigayo specifically. The DJ said she looks forward to aespa on Inkigayo though! (Her radio is on SBS, just like Inkigayo lol)

Karina: Before, our aes were no match for us in regards to dancing skills... but [for this comeback], they practiced extremely hard and they can come toe to toe with us
Ningning: I used to scold my ae for not dancing well
Eunji: I guess the programming got better
Karina said that aespa started practicing for 'Savage' immediately after 'Next Level' so it was very tough for them
According to aespa, Winter learns the choreo the fastest
Karina: As this is our first mini-album, we prepared very hard so that we can show you various sides of us. Please look forward to it
Giselle: I feel so excited and nervous because our 1st mini-album is being released. We plan to show you a more “upgraded” aespa
Winter: The thought of meeting everyone again through our first mini-album is making me very nervous and excited. We prepared really hard for this album
Ningning: It’s a shame that we can only meet each other online this time again. We will work hard, so please watch us prettily
Unfortunately, I will not be able to translate when the livestream begins. Please look out for live tweets roughly 30 min to 1 hour after the game begins!
Sorry 😓
Karina: There's a car over there, should we ride in it?
Winter: Sounds good!
Giselle: Oh, a car! Where is it?
Karina: Well actually, I don't have a driver's license yet so...
