Why #RedVelvet #Irene likes purple: In 11th grade, there was a new female transfer student in the class next to her. She liked her so much that she went there to borrow her gym clothes on purpose. That friend liked purple, so Irene started to like it. She thinks it's meaningful.

OP: It's possible for you because you look like that, Irene...

Q. Have you read any books recently?

Around the start of the party, #RedVelvet #Irene said that her stomach hurt. When the fans looked at her worrily, she said that it didn't hurt because she was sick, but because she was nervous.

Q. Three things that you always take with you on overseas schedules?
#RedVelvet #Irene: I take everything I use, like bath supplies. Then I have a bit of other luggage..And I also take stuff like books and I always take gym clothes, I know I wearthem all the time but still...

#RedVelvet #Irene: To not become lazy, I just get up in the morning. And if there's a big schedule, I plan my own schedule, like what I'll do during the break times in between, and send it to my manager.

When they were singing the birthday song, in the "Happy birthday dear~" part, everybody said it differently, like "Dear Bae Juhyun/Irene/Juhyun," so #RedVelvet #Irene was like: Who are you singing it to?

When they sang it later again, they decided to unify the name, and it was decided that they would sing the song for Bae Juhyun.

At first, #RedVelvet #Irene was hesitant to talk about why she likes her part in Candy (How would've I laughed this melancholy feeling off if I hadn't known you?), because she thought it was depressing. But eventually she started to talk about it.

She said she felt the emotions she felt while listening to JeA&Lee Younghyun's Harmony.
#RedVelvet #Irene: Maybe it was because I'd been away from my parents or because of the stress of practicing, but I couldn't stop crying while listening to Harmony.

#RedVelvet #Irene: It was then when I realized that I was stressed, and I started crying. But this hit me when I heard the line"So that I could comfort hearts that are in more pain than mine:"This must be harder for the younger kids because even she was having a hard time coping.

#RedVelvet #Irene: After realizing that, I was able to gain courage. I think I grew a little and became stronger after going through that.

Q. What kind of sky do you like?
#RedVelvet #Irene: Blue skies? I like any and all kinds of skies. I also like the dawn air. I still remember the temperature of the air that I felt as I opened the practice room doors to leave after practicing when I was a trainee.

Q. Mint Chocolate Like/Dislike
#RedVelvet #Irene: Before I used to buy mint chocolate ice cream and drinks, but I don't anymore. I'm into strawberry lattes these days.

Q. How do you choose which emojis to use on Instagram?
#RedVelvet #Irene: At first,I used stuff like 🐰,stuff that you could recognize me with.But these days,I just upload pictures of myself like selfies...And you guys know it's all me,so I use the one that fits the pic the best.

SM Fan Supporter: I know you guys will record this no matter what, so, please just don't post this online.

#RedVelvet #Irene: I like answering questions you guys ask me. I think I get to learn who I am again through opportunities like these.

Q. What do you think about thr nickname that the other members call you with, "The Best Woman of this Era?"
#RedVelvet #Irene: I'm thankful that they think of me like that...

The luvies were like "I can't eat the croissant," so #RedVelvet #Irene was like: If you save too much, it'll go to waste, and she started talking about her mother. When she bought a bag for a mother, she would use it once and then store it after wrapping it up again.

So she told her mother that if you save too much, it'll go to waste. You only know whether or not something is good or not after you use it.

There were a lot of questions asking about her 'secrets,' like, the secret to being good at something, the secret winning and etc, so #RedVelvet #Irene, with a laugh said, "Why are you guys asking me to reveal my secrets so much?!"
