RJ: let's wait a bit longer, there's no one in here yet
XJ: you- this is it, eh?
still no one here?
RJ: because- I don't know, maybe it's too sudden, starting a live at this time
hi everyone! this is a spontaneous livestream
this counts as a road home from work
why am I suddenly starting this live?
XJ: reNjuN RJ: because I'm with Jun-jun
tada~ XJ: hhHhhHh
RJ: hello everyone!
this light's too bright XJ: I'm a piece of grass
RJ *mumbling* (T/N: bro I just realized that both of you are kings of mumbling, please spare my poor translator soul)
XJ: wow, haven't you anticipated this for ages? for ages, eh?
RJ: I can do this all dAy wErEweRR
XJ: didn't you listen to it until you wanted to throw up? RJ: we've listened to it tOo muCh, really (T/N: the power of Make a Wish, infiltrating our brains)
RJ: "Xiaojun" "Jun-jun"
XJ: thank you for cue-ing me a lot, I haven't responded yet
right now I'm replying to all your questions, ask away
RJ: ahhhh
personally, I think the name Xiao Dejun sounds quite nice
why did you remove the character in the middle?
XJ: ah this question, this question is actually- to respond to
the great fandom's wish [to know]
"why get rid of 'De'?" "why be immoral?" (T/N: wordplay on "de" since it also means "morals")
RJ: I didn't want to say it [out of courtesy]
XJ: I feel like the reason- I can only say it a few years after debut, do I say it now?
RJ: how many years has it been since your debut? XJ: because I have to cue the company
two years RJ: two years? then wait until four years
XJ: wait until four years after?
RJ: I'm joking, you can say- XJ: because I have to cue the company
RJ: is it good or bad?
XJ: it's what it is, it's not-
RJ: of course it's not anything bad XJ: yeah it's not anything bad
there's not really a meaning behind it RJ: just- the company felt that
this name fits your disposition more?
XJ: no- RJ: then you explain it, why am I talking? hErE, sAy it yOursELf
XJ: it's like this, the specifics are very boring
they said to me "in the various languages across the globe, the character 'De' is a bit difficult to pronounce" (T/N: uh huh. and "xiaojun" is easy to pronounce??)
RJ: why can't you say it?
XJ: I didn't say you couLdn't say it
I wanted to say "whAt'S sO diFFicULt aBouT iT?"
RJ: that's understandable, in a lot of places, that sound is difficult to say
XJ: you don't say- Xiaojun, Xiaojun's even more difficult (T/N: eXacTly. you know how many times I've tried to explain it but non-native speakers just caN'T)
is "de" difficult? RJ: Xiaojun
XJ: Xiaojun- I even started a live to explain to fans from various countries how to say it (T/N: lmao that insta live, the way I wHeEzEd at dJ xiAo)
*GPS-noona cameo* RJ: honestly, you should be called whatever you'd like to be called
XJ: honestly I really, because in my opinion, my parents naming me "Xiao Dejun", the "De" character is the essence [of the name]
I really like "de"
RJ: the next question is, how was your hair colour decided upon this time? (T/N: lmao Renjun asking the good questions)
XJ: ah this hair [colour]? that was their decision
RJ: *speechless* XJ: the hairstylist jie-jie (endearing term for older female) kept
going "I'm so great~ take your hair today as an example"
and I was just "oh-oh yeah, you're so great, yeah..." (T/N: mOOD, but jie, please spare Xiaojun... 姐啊, 放过肖俊吧...)
RJ: but, the end result was really pretty XJ: yeah it's actually really pretty, picked a good [colour]
RJ: the next question is- XJ: why do my eyebrows look like they're nonexistent? RJ: because you dyed your eyebrows
XJ: this lighting- I also have a pimple, this pimple's so big, aiyo (T/N: please don't dye your brows again, my dude, fight the staff on it if you must)
RJ: *cackling* every time, I feel like, last time during Yangyang's live too, it's a different vibe
XJ: yeah? like we, WayV, are really *snickering* RJ: it's completely different, I was a bit panicked
XJ: yeah, we, WayV, are like that, we're quite... fun (T/N: that's one way to put it-)
RJ: what other questions are there? oh, why did you not respond to all those times I cued you?
XJ: because...
cut time, sorry
just, because- RJ: "cut time, sorry"
XJ: just because
your questions are too sensitive~
RJ: *singing 因为爱情 [Because of Love]* XJ: your questions are so sensitive, how do I answer them?
like for example, you cued me, I forgot what you cued RJ: just, didn't get chance, eh, I actually didn't really cue you
XJ: yEs yOu diD, I saw it when I refreshed [my feed]
I'll cover this side- what's next?
RJ: take a look at the comments, eh?
XJ: oh right, actually, the two of us, we have a TMI
the two of us have always been... karaoke brothers
we often- like, sing karaoke, right?
like we siNG songs, not sing karaoke
what songs do they want to hear? we can sing it together
whoa, my hair's like grass RJ: it's actually really pretty
"karaoke brothers"
right now, with my voice like this, are we still singing?
XJ: you, today- yeah today RJ: Face to Face (T/N: knowing WayV songs? we stan)
RJ: put both hands together~ XJ: I'm actually really afraid that you're gonna sing "both feet" RJ: both feet walking closer~ XJ: oh it is "both feet"
RJ: do you remember when this song came out?
XJ: I remember
this song is- our- like- remember the demo- because we- like us Chinese folks here really like to listen to this song
RJ: that's right XJ: a really good [song]
RJ: "wanna hear '告白气球' [Gao Bai Qi Qin]"
*XJ starts singing the verse while RJ jumps straight to the chorus- I'm-*
*ah the memories- the nostalgia- it's a pretty catchy song, how much you wanna bet it'll be stuck in your head the whole day?*
*struggles to find the key*
*there we go*
XJ: chorus
*that riff tho- jeez, flexing on us like that*
RJ: suddenly added a [riff]
*harMonY tiME*
XJ: like this RJ: you sing first, I'll [add harmony]
*give us a full cover, please, just a cappella would be angelic*
XJ: what's the next lyric?
*welp- guess who has the urge to sing during a lecture now?*
*inaudible*
RJ: "Piano (Faded in My Last Song)" did you sing Piano this time?
XJ: I did! you don't know?
RJ: you didn't XJ: yeah, I didn't RJ: eVery tiMe
you've never said the truth before, lemme tell you
XJ: you've just never pAid atTeNtioN to me before!
XJ: *sings Faded in My Last Song* (T/N: somehow I heard something else-)
*I've said it before, I'll say it again, SM please let them cover their own songs a capella*
XJ: what are they saying?
RJ: "Little Apple [Xiao Ping Gao]" (T/N: oh my god that curséd song from my childhood- it has the same energy as All Star, no joke)
XJ: *hehehe* RJ: yOu aRe mY liTTle liTTLE aPpLe~
*how the heck did you two make it sound less cursed?? what kind of witchcraft?*
XJ: I used to do the dance, really (T/N: you- now I can't unsee it make it stop)
*awkward laughter time*
*I'm- I- never in my life would I have expected this*
*conflicting emotions- very conflicting*
XJ: I don't know- em
*the way that activated my fight or flight instincts*
XJ: you-
XJ: right now, we're not going back to the company, right now we're- I don't even know
RJ: going baCk tO tHe doRm XJ: not telling you all
RJ: you should've said that earlier-
RJ: *sings "不让我的眼泪陪我过夜" [Bu Rang Wo De Yan Lei Pei Wo Guo Ye]*
XJ: should I say something really cringeworthy? (T/N: sickening sweet, basically)
RJ: mhm XJ: but it's true RJ: go ahead and say it
XJ: I've realized that your voice is really distinguishable
RJ: does that mean I didn't sound good before?
XJ: no no no, before it was- like with people you're close with RJ: alright, that's the end of the live-
XJ: like, people's weaknesses- it's difficult to realize the good things about those close to you RJ: especially since we practice together everyday
it's even harder to know-
XJ: this time's From Home, Renjun, you did great- with my hard work, he- no I'm kidding
yeah, you did quite well
aiya- this rocket blocks me from scrolling- RJ: *cACKliNG*
RJ: 666666 (T/N: that's Mando slang btw, go watch the NCT Chinese Tips series, you'll see)
XJ: I can't see-
RJ: "did you eat? so cute~" (T/N: courtesy of Dhiandra's comment)
XJ: thank you for the 666s but I can't see the screen
XJ: "praising each other for business purposes" no, that's not it
RJ: praising each other for business purposes? XJ: like, "business" (T/N: RJ is you guys, XJ is me)
RJ: "is Renjun going to play with the cats again?" today, I can't
XJ: what- RJ: no but like I went to your dorm a couple days ago
XJ: wHo iNvitEd yOu tO ouR doRm? (T/N: lmao yangyang be wildin'- you sure you texted the gc?)
RJ: Yangyang, Kun-ge XJ: you sat in my computer chair
RJ: how do you know- XJ: because you cued me again
I'm eating hair- aiya
RJ: "Xiaojun sing 'My Tears Accompany Me Through the Night'"
XJ: my tears accompany me through the night? RJ: "nOT Letting My Tears Accompany Me Through the Night"
XJ: aiya you don't know- this song is an inside joke, every time I go live they ask me to sing it RJ: why?
XJ: because it sounds good
*renjun just casually bursting into hysterics*
XJ: sorry, sorry
RJ: I think his sense of humour honestly catches me off guard XJ: really?
first time seeing what I'm like at work- RJ: yeah
XJ: thiS iSn'T woRk, wHat the heck are you talking about? just having fun~
RJ: I was laughing to death
XJ: I don't even know why I'm so funny today
I have so much inspiration, when I'm with you
RJ: once you say you're funny, you're not funny anymore
XJ: it's starting- [my humour] is gone, it's already gone RJ: every time
every time, he says he's so funny and at that same exact time XJ: I'm not funny anymore
ey, what did I want to talk about?
I forgot- RJ: hair, you ate hair
XJ: no, that's not it, uhhhh
RJ: I was yawning- you- XJ: ey ey how am I supposed to know? RJ: I was hiding-
XJ: ah, what are your vocal warmups?
RJ: how do you [warm up]?
XJ: I've said it before RJ: aHHH like that?
XJ: no... RJ: *wheezing*
*ah yes, lip fluttering, the choir classic*
XJ: there's a really ugly one- never mind
"both of you are skinny, who's skinnier?"
RJ: I'm a bit skinnier, probably XJ: hEy, hey hey hey hey
these kinds of things
you're forbidden to answer
the word "skinny" is forbidden, right? RJ: forbidden (T/N: if anyone dares takes this clip out of context istg I will come after you- mark my words)
RJ: honestly, "skinny" isn't- XJ: isn't a crime
RJ: working hard on exercising
XJ: you're talking about yourself? RJ: you XJ: me? yeah thank you
"did you meet with Junhui-ge-ge (from Seventeen)?"
RJ: yeah- we took photos, will he post them?
XJ: yeah, we have some... things
some photos
I don't know if he'll post them
his greenroom was right next to ours
XJ: alright, everyone, that's it for today, bye bye
oh wait no- aHH I know what I was going to talk about
RJ: seriously- XJ: like, have you- I've said it before, like, do you have fans that would, when the livestream ends, send a bunch of
"Renjun's sO crUeL~ whY are you loGgiNg oFF weiBo sO quicKly?" (T/N: istg Xiaojun you've said this in so many lives, I already know what's next, oh "I hAvE nO luCk")
"I couldn't see Renjun- I hAve nO luCk~" like those kinds of [comments]? (T/N: called it)
RJ: *mumbles in confusion* who's saying that? XJ: you don't understand it? RJ: no, I don't understand
XJ: it's just- no matter how long you livestream, there's always going to be people who couldn't watch it
RJ: ahhh, because, like, there's always new peeps coming in
what was really funny about today was, I- I don't know if Yangyang and the others would relate, but
whenever Xiaojun speaks, we never hear him, like we don't understand him
and we would always ask, "what? what did you say?" (T/N: tHE wAy I wHeeZed- you know my pain now, see? it's not just me who thinks XJ mumbles too much)
K: because he speaks *inaudible* RJ: and then today- Kun-ge is in front of us, actually
and then today, I couldn't hear him when he spoke
so I was like "never mind, I'll just use WeChat to chat"
"let's just use WeChat"
XJ: no, I want to see their responses (T/N: already gave mine many a times, but I wholeheartedly agree with RJ on this, sorry my dude-)
is it [like that]?
they say "yes" whoaaa
"speaks too quickly" (T/N: not only that but he slurs his words together like bro, chill out, anUnCiAtE)
XJ: they say your IQ isn't high enough- RJ: me? XJ: aiya, sorry
I don't know who they're talking about-
are they saying that my IQ isn't high enough, speak too quickly? or?
RJ: they're talking about the people in the back-
XJ: "not the same joke"
well okay, we- here, I- I won't interrupt you RJ: we, Double the Jun, are ending this here, actually today,
because we're on the way home
Xiaojun-ge is quite weary
XJ: why are you saying that I'm "weary"?
okAy, I'm sO wEarY~
I'm sO weAry~
RJ: so, like, we wanted to
like we wanted share with everyone what it's like when we're together, chat for a while, that kind of stuff XJ: cHAt're whiLe
RJ: that's it for today
?: dArn tiRed RJ: next time when we have an event, we probably would have a lot of opportunities to livestream
XJ: really? RJ: we hope that everyone will look forward to that (T/N: idk, y'all be spamming these days, I can't keep up lmao)
hope that everyone will look forward to that XJ: wHoA (T/N: bro you good?)
RJ: you wanna [say bye] with Kun-ge?
Kun-ge's sitting in front, the light's too dim
you all probably can't see, Kun-ge [say goodbye] to everyone- (T/N: it abrubtly cuts off like that idk it is what it is)
