~opening~
🐻: How can you make daily life more interesting? By taking up a hobby! It can help you revive passion for life and relieve stress and may perhaps even change you (for the better)!

Now playing “NU ABO” by f(x)

🐻: From the cumbersome daily life, take some time out to invest in a hobby and your life will be more fun! Feel free to share your hobby with us as well~

~Today’s TMI~
OP is trying to decide if they should run for president for the org that they’re in. If they do stay/run, it’ll make them very busy, but if they don’t all their work over the past year would’ve gone to waste

🐻: if you ask me of course I’d say go for it 😂 what’s being a little busier? You’re still young~ If it means you can learn even more and gain more life experience it’s better to be a little busier

Now playing “Still Life” by BIGBANG

~Moonlight Cinema w/ Zhuama~
🐻: Zhuama do you like stargazing?
👩🏻: I do! I wanted to see a meteor shower, but my luck isn’t that great - whenever I go either cloudy or raining 🥲
🐻: it’s better not to plan on seeing it - that’s how luck is haha when you want to see something +

+ specific the weather is bad, but when you don’t plan for it the weather and your luck will be good 😂
👩🏻: I heard there’s a meteor shower coming up though
🐻: ah I saw it before with chenle! We even saw a noisy shooting star. I have an astronomy app that gives me info/reminders

👩🏻: did you film it?
🐻: of course not haha you can’t get ur phone fast enough
👩🏻: did you make a wish on the shooting star?
🐻: no I’m not that romantic LOLL (T/N: 🤨)
👩🏻: LOL
🐻: what’s the use?
👩🏻: well what if? why not it’s a free wish 😂

Kun and Zhuama talked about comets and Zhuama said she heard it’s easily visible, but she’s only seen them on photos which isn’t as meaningful

The reason they were talking about stargazing, comets, etc. is because today’s movie is “Coherence” (2013)!

It’s a sci-fi thriller and basic synopsis is a comet passes by and a series of strange events happens to a group of friends having a dinner party
imdb.com/title/tt286636…

Zhuama and Kun talked about how the movie is mostly set in a single room and shot with a handheld camera and earlier ZM mentioned it’s not that scary because it focuses on the dialogue. This movie touches on topics like parallel universe, Schrödinger’s cat, etc.

Kun is already feeling confused hearing Zhuama talking about these topics LOL so he said he’ll have to watch the movie to understand. Zhuama recommended similar movies where they touch on these topics

🐻: Ah I really liked “Reset” that came out at the beginning of the year as well. I even recommended it to my mom to watch!
👩🏻: ah yes “Reset” made me start wanting to watch more sci-fi movies as well!

Now playing “똑같은 날” by Ra.D

Zhuama talked about how in the movie, the comet passed by and electricity went out, so 2 ppl went to a house that still had electricity and came back with wounds on their faces and a box of items that included numbered photos taken of them and a ping pong paddle

🐻: the script here says it wasn’t that strange…but this IS quite strange…it’s strange okay?? 😆
👩🏻: because I’m gonna talk about something even more strange LOL because some were wearing new clothes in those photos that could’ve only been taken from this night

Kun said this reminded him of “The Miracles of the Namiya General Store” a novel by Keigo Higashino which was quite heartwarming and said it’s a book that could make him cry
🐻: I read the book before I saw the film!
👩🏻: oooh I wanna see it now too

Now playing “How I Feel” by KIM JAE HWAN

ZM talked about the plot, but then halfway through Kun was like
🐻: Ok I think our program should end here today LOL I wanna go back and watch the movie
👩🏻: I won’t tell you the ending haha
🐻: don’t wanna hear any more but we have to continue…(in Eng) the show must go on 😂

Now playing “PARALLEL” by VIXX

open.spotify.com/track/3byQOMXe…

They’re continuing to talk about the movie and ZM mentioned that the ending is left pretty open/up to interpretation and might leave you with a lot of questions
🐻: ah I like movies with open-ended endings
👩🏻: i won’t spoil, but the female lead wants to find the best universe+

+ so my understanding is that everyone in each parallel universe wants to find the best one, so they’ll probably start fighting…
🐻: honestly though there can be infinite parallel universes there can’t just be 1-2 so in that situation….ai…I don’t know 😆 anyway movies like +

+ this are so good because they have all these psychological thriller details/topics!
🐻: If parallel universes do exist, would you go find the best one?
👩🏻: I’d feel like isn’t the me that’s in each parallel universe just me? If they’re living well doesn’t that mean I’m living+

+ well too?
🐻: not necessarily - to my understanding, for example in this universe I’m a singer, but in another maybe I’m a businessman…I think going back to our own universe is probably the best
👩🏻: I agree

🐻: what if you were super successful/wealthy in another universe?
👩🏻: They can share some with me and I’ll go back to my universe 😂
🐻: but you guys are not in the same universe how can you share LOL would you want to go eliminate them and live life in that universe?

👩🏻: wouldn’t the me in this universe not exist either then LOL i think the best would be sharing the money with me 😂
🐻: I think a lot of listeners today will be like KunD and interested in watching this film after today’s discussion! It’s rare there’s a film I rly want to watch

👩🏻: I’ll ask you next week if you’ve watched it haha
🐻: don’t worry I definitely will haha ok looking forward to next week’s movie! Pick more like this :D
