Wow!
Right here.
Hold on, hold on.
Scoot back a little bit.
Here is a blanket.
I can't help but laugh.
What do I do?
Oh my god.
I'm so nervous.
Me too.
Please take off each other's blindfolds.
- Oh, each other! - Where are you?
Where's your face?
Where's your hand?
This is going to be difficult. I can't find...
I really don't want to ruin your makeup.
Me, too. Okay.
Wait.
What is this?
This is your shoulder
so... up, up, up, up!
Oh my god! This feels really weird.
How did you feel when you took off the blindfolds?
I had a little bit of excitement because I'm a really outgoing person.
I was looking forward to talk to her.
What do I do! I'm so shy.
- Wait - Is it this?
It was really nerve-racking
and also awkward at the same time.
My heart hasn't beaten that fast in a while.
- Wait - Is it this?
Yeah, you can just pull it out.
Oh my gosh. Hi!
Hello.
Nice to meet you.
Hello!
Hi.
- Hi. - Hi.
What was your first impression of her? - She looks very cute and warm.
It gives off really nice, kindness vibes.
So I was like, "Okay, maybe this will be okay."
She has really pretty big eyes.
She looks like a deer. Like a reindeer.
I am BELLE from KISS OF LIFE.
I am NINA from NiziU.
- Oh, NiziU! - I've actually...
seen you before.
Oh, really? Where?
On social media.
Me too.
Really?
Yeah, I've known of your group.
A year ago, I was in the studio with my closest producers.
They turned on one of your songs.
It's called "Chopstick".
We were all like, "Oh my god, this is really good!"
"Which idol group is this?"
- Really? - We were all so shocked.
- Thank you so much. - I love that song.
I am RIMA from NiziU.
My name is JULIE
and I am from KISS OF LIFE.
Her eyes were
sparkling and she was really bright.
And I was really happy to meet her.
I heard your songs
and I watched your performance on social media.
Oh my gosh!
I was super shocked because actually,
I didn't expect her to know KISS OF LIFE.
Because it hasn't been that long since we debuted.
So, I was really shocked and happy.
And it was super surprising.
I actually watched the survival program (Nizi Project).
- Oh, really? - Yeah, I watched.
And I was like "She's really good at rapping."
Because my positon is rap too.
Yeah, so I was like, "She's really good at rapping."
Oh! thank you.
So when I took off blindfolds, I was like "Oh my gosh!"
Oh my gosh!
I know her!
I can't believe it,
because I've heard all of your singing and stuff.
Oh really?
I was always talking about this with members.
Me and another member, MIIHI,
she's also one of the vocal positions in our group,
and we were like,
"She's the Ariana Grande of K-pop."
Thank you so much. I love that compliment.
How old are you?
I was born in 2000, so 23 years old.
Twenty-three! So you're unnie.
I'm nineteen, born in 2004.
2004! One of my members was born in 2004.
Oh really?
She's my closest friend.
Then, I can be your closest friend too!
Great!
I'm from Seattle and was born in 2004.
You're from Seattle? I'm from Seattle too!
What?!
Yeah!
You're from Seattle?
Oh my god! I've never seen someone from Seattle!
No one is from Seattle!
Do you feel comfortable talking and socializing with people,
or are you really shy?
I'm really shy.
I think I'm the most introverted in my group.
Really?
But, you don't seem that introverted.
So you're my first K-pop friend
Yeah, actually
So, I'm like so nervous.
I heard that I'm making a friend today,
so I was like... "Will she be my friend?"
Of course!
You know we don't really have many opportunities
to get to socialize with people,
which is ironic.
So it's been a really long time since I've had a conversation with someone this close.
I know! It's like,
I thought it would be more awkward
but, it's actually pretty fine.
Are you kind of introverted?
Yeah, I'm very introverted.
You seem so.
Everyone always says I look extroverted, but I have zero friends.
I'm kind of like an outgoing person.
I want to become outgoing.
That's my goal every year.
No, what do you mean?
I love your personality.
Thank you.
Oh my god, I'm so scared of this.
What is that?
Woah, okay this is so scary.
Have you done this before?
No, I always escaped because I'm always scared of it.
Yeah, same.
Oh my god, I'm so nervous! This is not good!
Oh my god, this is so scary!
I don't lie though.
Then, it won't be scary.
Do you think you two will become friends today?
- Yeah, obviously! - Oh my god, I'm nervous.
Okay, this is so scary!
I will. Yes.
I need to calm down.
Okay, this is so scary!
Wait, this is so scary. This is so scary.
I need to calm down!
The song! This song!
What was that?
Wait! Why?
I was nervous for a reason!
Was that NO?!
No! This is unfair!
Liar!
He said, "Do you think you'll become friends?", but we already are.
The lie detector said it was a lie. What do you think? - I definitely think that if I took it again now,
I would probably pass the test.
That detector is broken.
Should I go?
Wait, I'm sweating!
It's going to be the same question.
Do you think you two will become friends today?
Yeah!
Yeah, right?
Of course!
I'm nervous for you.
I hate!
I hate this kind of...
It actually shocked me!
Wow, we're not friends or something.
Are we not friends?
I thought it wouldn't ring.
So I got sad.
And when I did it, it came out false.
So I was like phew!
I didn't believe it because
she seemed like she liked me. So...
Do you write raps?
Yeah I do!
That's nice.
Do you?
I like sometimes when...
You have empty space.
Yeah, when I have empty places and put it in.
Or like in concerts.
So I just do it how I feel like it.
Yeah, that's how you do it.
That's how you do it.
It would be so cool if we could rap together.
Yeah! Collaboration or something one day.
Someday!
Do you have any role models or favorite artist?
My role model is actually
Sabrina Carpenter.
Oh really? I love her.
Really? You love her music?
I can kind of see that now.
What's yours?
My favorite artist...
I don't know. I have a lot of people
that I look up to because they're all so different.
But, I think when I was a little kid I looked up to Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga?!
You have the diva inside of you.
Yeah, my parents called me the devil when I was younger.
Because I'd just be screaming.
This is the first time I think I've ever said that
I like Lady Gaga.
People are going to be surprised, because I'm very much not
the tough character in my group.
I think that's your charming point.
Your inside and outside is different.
I love it.
What's one pro and con about being a rapper in your group?
There's a lot of pros, I think.
We're the coolest!
Yeah, we're the coolest!
Yay, yay.
Yeah, we're the most hip.
Yeah, we're hip and cool.
What is one pro and con about being a vocal position?
I think as a singer, someone who likes to sing
you can definitely try a lot of stuff.
And not be afraid to do that, and I think that's really fun.
I think a con is like...
when you guys are doing the stage,
and you get the high notes.
I know!
Just the same as you.
I had a bit of pressure about being a
full vocal position of KISS OF LIFE.
So whenever I had to hit the whistle notes...
I was like... Dang!
That must've been so hard to do.
Yeah, it is really hard,
when my condition is kinda bad.
Sometimes I can't hit that note, too.
So it was kind of a burden.
Do you have any worries or concerns?
It's a hard question because
I have so many worries.
Yeah, right. I don't know, it's hard to choose one.
If I have to choose one, always trying to
show people the best.
Yeah, and when you try hard you sometimes...
But, we're doing good!
So I always tell myself, "You're the best."
"You're doing good, you got this."
What's your future goal?
My future goal,
I would definitely love to be more global and
maybe go back to Seattle and do a concert.
I would probably cry a lot because
being able to make it in your hometown
is definitely any artist's dream.
What about you?
Same as you but, being happy all the time.
Being on a huge stage like Coachella.
You will definitely make it.
I swear, you'll probably go and get a Grammy or something.
And I'm going to be like "I talked with her."
"I technically know her."
"She said she likes Sabrina Carpenter."
Me too!
I'm going to say, "She said she likes Lady Gaga! I know her!"
I'm going to be like, "Who told you she would make it?"
I did! Y'all better trust me.
I have a lot of goals.
But the best one is to be nice with the members.
And get along with each other really well.
My goal is to just continue that forever.
I have lots of goals. But, to summarize it all up
I think I just want to be able to
be really happy doing this job
for a long period of time.
And I want to be able to be
somebody that gives good energy to a lot of people.
And so, I hope I'm giving good energy to you.
Yeah! You are.
This is like the job of being an idol, giving good energy to people.
Yeah, we're giving good energy.
So to the people who are watching this,
I'm giving good energy to you guys too, hopefully.
This is fun!
Yeah, this is fun.
I was really nervous because
I have no English friends to talk to.
Me too. We can be good friends.
It was really fun, talking with someone
who's also from the same place as me and speaks English.
And is very similar position wise in groups.
I think that was definitely fun.
Draw a portrait of each other in 15 seconds.
15 seconds?!
I have a strong feeling that I can be really good friends with her.
It was a nice time.
This might offend you.
- I know! - I don't want to offend you.
It was nice just to have a conversation
sitting down, face-to-face.
It's been a long time since I've done that.
So I'm super happy and had a good experience.
5 seconds!
Oh, no!
JULIE unnie, she became my friend.
So, I'm really happy!
Thanks for this whole content.
Love you.
