~opening~
🐻: a drop of paint in a cup of water will immediately change the water’s color, but with a drop of paint in the ocean the ocean will remain the same blue color. Bc the measurements of both are different, hope we can all be mutually understanding people of one another

~Today’s TMI~
OP knocked over vinegar in the kitchen all over the floor and asked Kun if he’s had any mishaps in the kitchen or if he’s just flawless
🐻: Hmmm really I don’t think I’ve ever had any mishaps in the kitchen…except maybe sometimes I over-salt my food, but it’s +

+ okay I’m still able to eat it!

Kun said the smell of vinegar especially certain kinds can be unforgettable and wished OP well to be more careful in the kitchen as well

Now playing “Stars” by Rothy

~My Personal Playlist~
Lfskdjfa;lsd THIS IS MY LETTERKLJDF
[1st song: “She’s In The Rain” by The Rose]
I said I rly like Woosung’s voice and it’s really unique and immediately recognizable and asked Kun if he has any artists (I said other than Jay Chou but Caoli jie took that +

+ part out kdfjlskd) whose voice he can recognize immediately. I wished Kun & akseo staff will be able to get home safely due to the heavy rains/winds
🐻: As for singers whose voices I can recognize immediately…does it still need to be said? 😆 of course it’s…all NCT members! +

+ haha honestly I think I can recognize each NCT member’s voice. For future Wednesday Quiz Show segments we can have a “guess the voice” segment! Suddenly given PD jie and Caoli jie a good idea haha not bad~ Not only just me guessing, but listeners guessing as well! I think +

+ that’s a pretty good segment!

(T/N: AHhHHh looking forward to it :’))))

[2nd song: “給你給我” by Mao Bu Yi]
OP asked if Kun looks at the comments section when listening to music and said often you can read listener’s stories in the comments
🐻: I think I only read the comment sections for “Rain Day” 😆 really thanks everyone for all ur compliments +

+ in the comments even non-fans/casual listeners liked the song - thanks everyone for liking it! The most memorable cmts are people who can rly feel the feelings I had when composing this song. I feel like I can call this song a success! Hope everyone likes NCT U’s “Rain Day” ☺️

Now playing “給你給我” by Mao Bu Yi

Kun said after listening to the previous song that was played “給你給我 by Mao Bu Yi) it really feels like your whole body is relaxed so it’s suitable for the end of the night/evening~

[3rd song: “冬空下” by 赖美云]
OP’s message and Kun’s response were in Korean

~Indie Paradise w/ Chuyuan~
🐻: Chuyuan ge do you like going to museums?
🏝: yeah I’d say it fits my character! I quite like going
🐻: what kind?
🏝: hmm technology and biology - those types!

Kun said he likes historical/cultural (?) museums and likes looking at the things people made thousands of years ago. He said he’s curious and fascinated by the world of the past and how people lived their lives back then

Today’s featured artist is KIMMUSEUM
(t/n: oh- that’s why they talked about museums kldfjslk)
Chuyuan talked about name - Kim being the singer’s surname and “Museum” bc the artist thought people’s emotions are like the things on display in a museum

[1st song: “Perfume”]
Chuyuan said at first it might seem like a love song, but just looking at the lyrics tell a slightly different story from the melody. It’s a RnB style song which pairs well with the lyrics

🐻: hehe I quite like perfume as well~

Now playing “Perfume” by KIMMUSEUM

[2nd song: “281.31km”]
In this EP there are 2 different songs with similar titles “281.31km ( To. )” and “281.31km ( From. )”
🏝: although the album introduction isn’t particularly descriptive, we can probably deduce that these songs were written +

for someone outside of the 281.31km range
🐻: *gASPP*
🏝: the 2 songs also have a lot of overlapping lyrics, but the melodies are quite different
🐻: wah~ I think I can guess the meaning - it’s written for someone outside of the 281.31km distance, and then that person’s response

🏝: yes it can be interpreted that way as well!
Chuyuan talked about how ( To. ) has very soft guitar melody and in ( From. ) it feels like the person reciprocating the feelings in the first song

Now playing “281.31k ( To. )” by KIMMUSEUM

[3rd song: “We’re Already”] (Nevertheless OST)
Chuyuan talked about how this song/kdrama is about the love story between a woman who wants to date/have a serious relationship and a guy who just wants casual relationships

🐻: seems like KIMMUSEUM’s music style doesn’t feel very indie! There’s quite a modern/right now feel to a lot of his songs
🏝: yes! A lot of previous indie artists we’ve featured are or have songs that sound like they’re from 10-20 yrs ago but his seem quite in trend

Now playing “We’re Already” by KIMMUSEUM
(T/N: omgg i just watched this drama this weekend I had no idea he sang this song)

[4th song: “너에게 흔들리고 있어” by Joa Band]
This was a listener recommendation and OP said they first heard this song from a movie OST. The song was released in 2013 but the movie was released in 2019. OP asked if Kun has any songs he likes that were discovered from movies

🐻: ah honestly when I’m watching movies…I’m more focused on instrumentals like the works of Hans Zimmer. Both Chenle and I really love this amazing musician. I really like a lot of his works!

🐻: our time is about up today, hope everyone will continue tuning into akseo brought to u by KunD! Lastly, we’ll hear this song “너에게 흔들리고 있어” by Joa Band. See u next time! bye bye~
