~opening~
🐑: Sometimes a small joke might be give us temporary joy in life…but most importantly is to be in moderation to hot hurt others. Today is April Fool’s day! Have you been spending it well? (T/N: lmao so true *is scarred from several April fool’s jokes* 😂)

🐑: talking about April Fool’s Day…let me tell everyone something sad. Actually, our Louis and Leon are not cats - they’re humans…and I’m the (pet) they’re raising 😂 YES hope everyone will have a happy day today!

~Today’s TMI~
🐑: Today there were no listeners who sent in comments……JUST KIDDING HAPPY APRIL FOOL’S DAYYY now we’ll look at comments
First OP said they have to take virtual classes bc of the p*ndemic which was a big change in their life. There’s a lot of work and OP feels +

+ like an owl because the can’t fall asleep/don’t feel sleepy until 6-7am, but their first class it at 9:30am (🐑: ohmaigaddd) so they stay up late everyday and asked if YY has similar struggles
🐑: I think virtual classes are quite boring bc the fun part is seeing ur friends at+

+school! But not feeling sleepy until 6-7 am…maybe you sleep in too late? Ah but u said ur class is at 9:30…hmm…for advice…I’d say listen to akseo more 😂 haha kidding. I’d suggest not looking at ur phone for the 2 hrs before u sleep, close ur eyes, and think about things +

+ that happened during the day and you can fall sleep easier - that’s what I’ve been doing recently! Thank you and wishing you can sleep well every day~

Now playing “You are not alone” by GFRIEND

~New KPOP w/ LaiLai~
LOL LaiLai and YangYang are joking around so they switched roles/lines briefly with LaiLai as the host and YY as the guest 😂
🎵: welcome our guest yangyang!!
🐑: I’m so happy LaiLai could bring me here as a guest today 😂

🎵: today is April Fools day - do u have any memorable moments?
🐑: probably this moment here right now LOL but…on April Fools I’m usually the one ranking others…even if it’s not April Fools I’ll pretend and act like it is 😂
🎵: every day is April Fools day hahaha

🐑: hbu?
🎵: I was about to say this moment too hahah tbh tho I’ve always wanted to say the akseo opening ment…and now I’ve finally done it 😂

🎵: haha let’s get into this week’s new songs! What’s the first song YY recommends?
🐑: SCRATCH THAT BRING IT BACK TCH CHA NCT Dream’s GLITCH MODEEEE this is a song fans were probably really looking forward to because it had been a year since their comeback and Hot Sauce +

+ was very well received a lot of great attention. I had already previously heard “Glitch Mode” and I thought it was really really good
(This song was recommended by a listener!)
OP said they rly love the album and their fave song is also Chenle’s favorite song “Never Goodbye” +

+ and can’t help but tear up when listening to it
🎵: I listened to the album and every song in this album was so good
🐑: samee can you introduce it for us?
(T/N: idk if someone messed up the script LMAOO but YY was like “scratch that” and they went back on course 😂)

🐑: my favorite song in their album is called “Saturday Drip”! It’s a song with Jisung, Mark hyung, Jeno, and Jaemin - a rap song! I really really like it~ ☺️

LaiLai talked about how it’s inspired by tech/computer breakdowns, which they incorporated into the MV, so this time the concept was a little different from the usual youthful Dream concept
🐑: that’s right - but you can still tell this is definitely still a NCT Dream style song!

Now playing “Glitch Mode” by NCT Dream

🐑: this song is soooo good I’ve played this in the car repeatedly so many times haha
🐑: So Dream friends/fans…you’re welcome - I helped you stream many times 😂

[2nd song: “Mother” by Heize]
🐑: oh- wah just by the title you can tell the aura has changed haha
🎵: right haha it’s about missing your mom/family also heize’s first comeback this year
🐑: wah~ I really like Heize’s music - especially “And July”!!

LaiLai talked about how Heize felt when preparing for this album that she reached an age where she started rekindling feelings from back then, so she used a childhood photo taken by her mom from back then as the album cover

Now playing “Mother” by HEIZE

[3rd song: “Real Love” by OH MY GIRL]
LaiLai talked about how this song is about the feelings of the dreamy state falling in love. The album and MV has a lot of dreamy pink elements, which conveys the mood and feelings of being in love - even boring/mundane things become exciting

LaiLai talked about how it strays away from the group’s normal youthful girly concept/style (YY started singing “Dun Dun Dance” and “Dolphin” LOL) and pivots towards talking about the more vulnerable sides of growing up. This time they wanted to try the Spring Goddesses concept

🐑: I’m watching the MV right and it really feels like solo travel with the bright colors and all, which makes the viewer feel very happy and comfortable
🎵: that’s right! In order to capture the feeling, they went to Jeju Island and also used CG

Now playing “Real Love” by OH MY GIRL

[4th song: “Jaws” by BAE173]
LaiLai talked about how this song is very hype/energetic and the members also participated in the lyric writing this time! They wanted to convey their leadership and strength through this song and bc it’s a hype song there’s also a rly addicting rap

YY was wondering about the group name, so LL explained the group name made up of 3 parts - BAE (before anyone else), 1 (the first), and 73 (which is perfectly symmetrical in binary as 1001001)

🐑: ohmaigad…see kids, did you hear? Listening to kpop you not only learn singing and dancing…but also math 😆 just like our 127 geges - what’s 127? The longitude coordinates for Seoul 😂

Now playing “Jaws” by BAE173

open.spotify.com/track/5BVe5BDE…

🐑: wah~ listening to this song I really want to dance haha especially the rap part - it really grabs your attention! 🕺

~Kpop News Segment~
LL talked about how kpop documentaries are becoming more common and popular on streaming services like BP, Twice, BTS, MAMAMOO etc. +

+ so everyone can see their idols’ behind the scene moments with these documentaries that also have professionally woven narratives and filming/editing so u can see a whole other side of ur idols
🐑: I think a rly good thing about these documentaries is normally when you watch+

+ a video of your idols, you just see the most polished, shining side of them but documentaries like these will let you see their sweat and tears. In fact, I think that brings idols and fans even closer together.
LL agreed and said you can see the moments of friction/arguments+

+ the moments when idols get in a slump, etc.
🎵: what content would you include in a documentary if u filmed one?
🐑: LOL I don’t think I’d be able to film a vlog of my day because when I’m resting it’s so boring - I just lay down, watch videos/movies, eat, play with cats, sleep

🎵: but there’s lazy/relaxing style vlogs these days 😂
🐑: nooo I’m afraid to get scolded LOL they’ll be like “ur just laying down” 😆

Next news: labels are working with gov to open up global kpop academies. The curriculum not only includes singing/dancing, but also language +

+ and math classes and more that would help with skills in the industry. So in addition to supporting your interests of becoming a musician/artist or going to university, you would learn the skills for other careers in the field like managers etc. +

+ it even gives chances of meeting actual kpop idols/trainees and such.
🐑: wow…this sounds like more than even I learned while as a trainee LOL
🐑: our time is about up today! Thank you LaiLai~ looking forward to our next program - see u next week!

Now playing “memeM” by PURPLE KISS

🐑: Our program is coming to an end today! Lastly, we’ll play a song I’ve been really liking recently, which is Shawn Mendes’ “Teach Me How To Love”. Wishing everyone a happy weekend~!
