2020 MAMA
Favourite Asian Artist award winner
is WayV
*this is the 2020 Mnet Music Awards in case anyone doesn't know*
*they performed Turn Back Time on a water stage, it was great*
*tell me that's not the epitome of TBT stages*
*I dare you- see? you can't change my mind*
*the lights, the pouring "rain," everything is on full effect*
*I just hope they changed into dry clothing after because goodness sakes would it be terribly cold if they didn't*
<<first of all, congratulations to WayV for receiving the Favourite Asian Artist award at MAMA, in addition to the Asia Celebrity Award at AAA. this year, WayV's first official album also performed well, what are your emotions?>>
XJ: oh, thank you, thank you
K: emotion-wise, of course, we definitely feel great
this year- it's like an affirmation for us <>
we were able to win two awards at the end of the year
uhhh how do I say this? [we're] still super grateful for our WayZenNis
and also, a lot of staff members who helped us behind the scenes, like <>
WayV was able to grow so quickly because of everyone's efforts
<>
WW: our future plans, it's just bringing new projects and stages to everyone, and also we're currently
preparing a brand new... thiNG
you all will be able to see it in a while
K: that's right WW: you all will be so surprised <>
K: we've been preparing it- for quite some time L: yeah
K: hope everyone will support us!
<>
XJ: oh I'm buffer now
WayV: oh that's nice- that works
K: indeed, he's become buffer, we were just discussing this question, like, upon seeing Xiaojun
in the Take Off dance video from two years ago
it was like, a skeleton was dancing
L: besides outer appearances, we also grew a lot, deep inside <>
like, for example, we released an album [Awaken the World] this year and attended many events
and our experience stacked up like +1 +1 +1
and the two awards we received were because of you all <>
and then, for example, the song that we love, Nectar
this song- I think we really grew a lot
so, I hope that everyone can continue to
support our future projects
thank you
<<in 2020, the members used different video formats to communicate with WayZenNis, including the princess cosplay that was trending, how did those around you react to the princess costumes? how did each member choose which princess [to cosplay]?>>
YY: that, you'll have to ask our event planner
K: here, our event planner YY: the happiest event planner
WW: the happiest? oh yeah, I was really happy <>
at first, because it was-
my idea was that, on my birthday, I would invite the members to give everyone a surprise
like, each one of us would cosplay as a character that we like
and I don't even know how it turned into cosplaying as princesses
<>
*complete and utter chaos*
*iS thAt a cHiCkEn I hear?? tHe tRiLL oF a diStreSsEd hEN*
-to yOuUuuuUuUUuu
WW: I don't even know whose idea it was, it's honestly very odd
L: because it was Halloween!
WW: yeah, it happened to be Halloween
L: we wanted to do something weird for Halloween, and then, iT eNded uP bEiNg
we- what did they say? someone-
K: I forgot who suggested it YY: someone said it in the groupchat
L: I think it was me K: who was it that suggested for all of us to cosplay as princesses? <>
*a chorus of "iT wAs yOu- nO iT wAs hiM"* <>
YY: iN thE wEchAt gRouPchAt, yoU aSkEd- "do you all want to be princesses?" WW: yeah I just raNdoMLy aSked-
L: that day, we were initially, like, Harley Quinn <>
WW: Harley Quinn? K & L: there weRe a loT
L: there was like, Superwoman K: Queen of Hearts
L: there were a lot [of characters], and then, afterwards, we
uniformly cosplayed as Disneyland's <> (T/N: using phonetics to match "Disneyland" to Chinese characters)
this- uh- Disneyland <>
DisNeYLAND
princesses
and the reaction was quite good
WW: and I realized that everyone, besides me, was sUpEr happy
like, enjoying the moment- K: whAt dO yOU mEaN bEsiDes yOu? wE leT yOu hAVe yOur wAy <>
WW: yeah, I sat there and watched you all, silently
K: nO, nO L: *iN fiErCe oPpoSitiON* you were like thiS
WW: I felt very satisfied K: enjoying it vEry much
WW: oh, it turns out that everyone likes my plan thiS much? <>
I should organize another one next year T: very happy after that day
WW: I was happy when I went- <>
Dejun was like- he's still like Jasmine right now
YY & WW: oh so his concept is the same- K: he's been- yeah
K: didn't Hendery post a photo a couple days ago?
the four of them mimicking Shrek
in there, Dejun was completely- he had Jasmine vibes, he became Jasmine
L: and I'm Shi-li-jia K: Shi-rui-ke [Shrek]
K: there's a lot of names, a lot of names
L: Shi-lei-ga? <> WW: sNiCkers cHoCoLAte
XJ: isn't it Si-lei-ga (?)? L: his name is Shrek WW: purposefully adding on-
WW: and our family members were very shocked when they saw
<>
L: my family- they weren't, like
because it's also for fun K: yeah
WW: you've cosplayed the Monkey King [Sun Wukong] as kid, eh? (T/N: character in classic novel Journey to the West [西游记])
L: yeah, I once was the-
Suan Wukong- WW: Sun Wukong <>
K: Sun Wukong L: I said Suan Wukong yesterday
<>
XJ: historical outfits are nice! K: I think so too
L: umm
but I think- we've discussed
that next time, we would like to be
villains
K: oh villains
that one's good too
WW: female characters too- <>
K: female characters too? L: it's only fun that way~ WW: really?
K: it has to be a villain but also a female character L: how about having all of them be male characters?
WW: or by choice- whatever villain you want
L: eY- what animal did you want to be?
H: ah animals! that's a good one too
L: ey- ah- I know! that uh
how about Monsters, Inc.? <>
K: Monsters, Inc. is good
WW: that one's good H: I waNt tO bE the dOoR <>
L: I want to be- oH yoUrs iS pReTTy gOod H: cosplay as a door
K: I'll be the conveyor belt XJ: the big-eye boi's the hardest to cosplay, who can do it? (T/N: you mean Mike Wazowski)
WW: yOU! you're very fitting <>
XJ: big-eye boi? WW: yeah you're very fitting L: I'm tHe fURRy oNe [Sulley]
<>
XJ: I'm the fastest at it but I'm the least funny <>
Kun-*ge too but he's not funny either (T/N: ge = endearing term for older male)
<>
YY: classic self-realization
L: actually, out of those of us here, a lot of us are quite fast at taking the opportunity to crack jokes
the seven members of WayV
we all have very sharp minds K: that's right <> <>
because- like if you say "one" we all think of "two"
WW: *cAcKliNg* L: it's a very simple concept
H: really? then let's see WW: when you say "one" I think of- H: say a number
L: one H: two YY & L: three
<>
L: just jumped over it-
K: what do we have the most chemistry in doing? oNE <>
<>
WW: thiS iS cHemiStrY L: whAt a sHaME <>
K: dOn'T wE uSuALLy cOunT [iN oRdEr]??
<>
L: one, two, three, four- WW: nO bUt we had great chemistry just then
we all had great chemistry, eh? <>
K: thAt wAs sUch a fAiL
L: don't mind it, it's okay
<>
WW: TMI- K: unreleased TMI?
YY: I think it's when we, like, filmed- WW: that's quite a while back
the day we officially finished filming
didn't we go out and have fun by ourselves? L: oh right
YY: that day, there's actually a lot of unreleased [footage] L: it was quite fun
K: that day- the only thing that was released was- on the beach-
YY: because a lot of it was- we weren't able to bring the camera in the water
H: we ate barbecue though, eh?
YY: but at that time we already-
K: that day, Winwin barbecued
YY: *explaining things in English to Ten who is in confusion*
K: I saw you barbecuing- WW: what did I barbecue? K: you forgot? I have photos of you barbecuing
L: the uh, marbled pork
YY: it was the first time I saw marbled pork so black (T/N: the shade- it was burnt burnt, I'm guessing)
L: didn't we- after we went swimming K: didn't we eat barbecue after we swam?
L: we solely ate barbecue
K: it was purely just grilled meat WW: it tasted good, eh? <>
WW: my abilities- K: after you grilled it- it was... quite black
WW: a cAraMeLiZed vibe
YY: it was this colour <>
WW: you're kinda- actually, I think it wAS like that
K: yeah, in private, we're all very fun
XJ: when it comes to what we want to do in future group varieties
I think everyone needs to look forward to it <>
we'll have our next plan, very soon
WW: I want to go skiing- you?
YY: I want to make a snowman K: our previous WayVision was during the summer, eh?
how about we try one during the winter? <>
WW: sure! K: winter's quite nice L: everyone, please support us~
<> K: right, tune in when the time comes
if it actually happens-
<>
XJ: we've been- K: recently, we've been using rock, paper, scissors
rock, paper, scissors to decide who pays for the meal <>
YY: two people- K: two people pay for the meal
L: sometimes I would ask the fans
what to eat, and they have so many choices
K: so it's basically the same as not asking
L: bUt I do a raffle like brRrrR spin
whatever I see first, I eat that
K: ah that works too
to choose- how do we choose?
H: first it's global, then by region- by country
K: rEgiON H: then by country
we divide it into continents
K: from large to small H: like Asia, Europe- those cuisines <>
H: then by country, then- YY: it's useless at the end
it's completely useless
someone would suddenly say- K: oH I waNt tO eAt thiS- <>
L: eat rice noodles
or it's suddenly- what is it?
YY: Italian pasta L: yeah Italian pasta
K: what else do we eat? oh barbecue
WW: it's difficult for us to choose
L: because we really like to eat (T/N: lmao same- this whole segment is me on a regular basis~)
K: I think this is a global dilemma, to everyone, choosing what to eat <>
WW: we all eat whatever
<>
WW: who was it? Ten? H: wait, did we ever say that?
L: yeah- did one of us even say- K: I said it, I said it (T/N: if you're wondering, it's during Chenle's radio show)
K: I said it at the radio station
L: ah nO, it was originally-
we were like "let's give ge-ge a surprise" <>
when he comes home- we didn't know where to write "happy birthday"
so I was like "oh we have exactly seven people"
XJ: haha, yeah, seven characters
K: wish - ge - ge - hap - py - birth - day
XJ & YY: *counting it out*
L: after every person wrote it on their own bodies
and he was like "whoa how do you even wipe it off?"
and we were like "then we'll write on your body too"
it was like that, eh? WW: yeah
K: just- we wrote it here
L: it was quite fun, quite interesting
K: our manager was quite touched
WW: it's a very special birthday
L: it's unforgettable- K: to him, it's definitely an unforgettable birthday
<>
K: oh I won't say anything- you all can say it <>
H: everyone on a scale of 1-10, rate yourselves
L: ey, Kun-ge
K: me? I don't need to say anything
you all rate yourselves
L: me? one, two, three- three points for me
K: a three on a scale of 1-10?
L: yeah
WW: that humble?
YY: you have to base it off of our group's abilities
L: you- whoa YY: you're around a seven
WW: if hE's around a 10
L: *in deep contemplation*
XJ: Xuxi, if you put effort into it, it's not bad WW: actually, three points is pretty much it <>
L: if I put effort- what? K: he said you're pretty much three points
L: I also think I'm three points, because I rarely cook
and at best, I make ramen and stuff
but I've learned a bit, from my parents, but
I haven't cooked for that long
so it's three points- if I get to practice
I can improve this score
WW: but I think you'll know a lot of specialty secret recipes, like what your mom and dad taught you <>
K: yeah WW: different methods
K: now Winwin WW: oh mE?
what do you think? <>
L: I think you're a two WW: tWO pOinTs??
K: jUSt rAte yoUrsELf
L: it'S iMpoSsiBLe thAt yoU scOre hiGher tHan mE K: just rate yourself
WW: ah I rate myself?
L: oh we shouldn't have said anything- you go ahead WW: I go?
okay, sIX pOINTS
a passing score <>
YY: besides frying eggs, what else do you know?
L: everyone, clap
H: thiS iS fAcE- WW: it fell, it fell <>
K: even though he's learned from me before
I haven't seen him make anything <>
K: he knows how to fry eggs
he only knows how to fry eggs L: sometimes when he returns to the dorm
he immediately fries an egg, eats it, and
WW: because I only know that one thing <>
WW: ah- frying eggs is six points
H: that works- WW: there's much room for improvement
K: okay, what about Xiaojun? XJ: if you're six points, I'm seven points
I'm actually quite good-
L: yOU'Re sEvEn poiNTs?? XJ: if I put effort into it
H: if you cook Isatis tinctoria, it can be nine points <> WW: yOU'Re cOoKing isAtiS? (T/N: it's a medicinal herb)
WW: if he cooks pears, it can be 10 points
K: his pear soup can be 10 points
L: peAr wAter (T/N: yes indeed it's the same pear water he was brewing during the live where Bella peed)
YY: that day, he was drinking pear soup while eating barbecue it was the first time I've witnessed that <>
WW: fighting poison with poison, eh?
L: what I find suPER magical is
it's the first time someone ate barbecue kebab-
like, eating kebabs while eating pears
YY: raising internal heat, then lowering it, then raising it-
L: and I said, if you eat like that- XJ: it's the same concept as drinking herbal tea
L: nO- K: I think he's fine now, knowing to drink pear soup
he used to eat barbecue while drinking isatis root tea <>
XJ: bEcAuSe I rAn oUt oF iSatiS rOOt tEa
K: he's oNLy dRinKiNg pear water because he rAn oUt of isatis root tea
L: but he has- I don't know if it's his method, but
because he maintains it like that, his voice sounds so nice
K: it's his unique method L: I don't know if that's what it is, but his method is really weird
H: oh right, I'm curious, does isatis root tea have a spokesperson? <>
H: pLeAsE look at this person- <>
XJ: please look at my outfit today <>
XJ: okay next K: Yangyang
YY: this- uh- I hAvE fAcE, I'm one point <>
WW: ah I think that's pretty accurate
L: he's quite humble YY: I just think- if you can order delivery, why make it yourself, eh? <>
<>
WW: indeed, our da-ge (T/N: big bro, leader kinda vibe) <>
YY: it's like, encouraging spending, eh? (T/N: yeah well, some of us be broke, so...)
WW: indeed, a young master K: young master, young master, aLRIGHT, nEXT
T: uh for me, zero points for human food, but- K: animal food T: animal food is 10
<>
L: he doesn't know how to make what we usually eat
but he knows how to- K: feed the cats every day
L: he cooks! he cooks the stuff for the kitties <>
K: he knows how to mix a lot of things
