I think their food expense was about USD20k a month? I remember they were on a radio once and Eunbi said she treated the girls to KBBQ & the bill went up to USD1k, Yuri ended up splitting the bills with her. I think it was mentioned when they were on Naver Now radio

2024-08-11 05:33:54 +0000 UTCYea it says kkura debuted at 15 Korean age, but international age she was 13 actually at debut. She was part of the first gen of the newly created HKT48. And i dunno if she got her ged or not. She’s been busy since debut in 2011. Kkura from debut hit the ground running to try to raise her popularity as fast as she could because she wanted to be center and do that u have to place 1st in The general elections that were held 2 times a year besides the weird rock paper scissors election that also prize was center of the new akb48 song/mv. That was short lived because fans found out that was rigged for Jurina who u saw in pd48 and was kkuras “rival” in akb48. I air quote because it was stupid stunt created by the founder of akb48 to recreate the big feud from first gen akb48 between 2 of 7 original Kami 7 ( 7 goddesses) of the first general election process. Sorry for the random akb48 info. From my understanding kkura was invited to join akb48 at I think 15 🤔. She grew her popularity and ranked in a certain rank in the election were the founder aki p invited her to do both akb48 as well still do her duties/variety in HKT48.

2024-08-10 20:20:43 +0000 UTCI forgot the amount of money but izone had a big food bill each month lol. Bigger than wanna one and the other ioi. Rae do u remember it? Also, yujin/wony/nako were kkuras babies in izone. Well nako was her baby in HKT48 and just carried over to izone. ☺️. I’m sure Rae told you that kkura had her own radio show in japan and she would fly over to do it. Kkura is tsundere as well as chaeyeon. So kkura would praise each member on her radio show because it was easier for too because she didn’t know much Korean. And also she didn’t have to say it to their faces. So some of the members would listen to it sneakly and translate for the other members what kkura said bout them. She praised all them and talked how each of them are special. How thankful she was to them for helping her. She talked a lot bout how yujin/wony we’re doing so well and how precious they were to her. She even had some shows w the members who were decent in Japanese on her show too. Yujin would end up calling kkura her mom as time went on. From how much kkura tried to take care of her. Kkura tried to care for all of them as much as she could. Like in LE SSERAFIM. I think it’s special how close these girls got despite the contract being cut short. You can tell they try hard now to keep in touch and follow each others careers. ☺️.

2024-08-10 20:07:54 +0000 UTCThey did a very short performance of Energetic in MAMA 2018 which is why they know the choreo here. It's less than 2 minutes. I'll send you the link under FF next week ✌️

2024-08-10 18:58:16 +0000 UTCDramas and variety shows have romanticized and beautified high school life in Korea for foreigners but in reality Korea's education system is actually so crazy, I don't think I'll survive as a student there. They have night classes, tuition, self-study periods and not to mention they take their final high school exams all in one day (Which is the same in China too). I'd be so stressed and exhausted, and also why people say being a trainee is hard cos they have to juggle all that while training to be an idol

2024-08-10 18:44:51 +0000 UTCI think flip phones even back then are considered 'antiques' already? But I think it was smart for the company to only give them flip phones for communication purposes since they wouldn't been able to access social media and whatnot

2024-08-10 18:24:04 +0000 UTCHahahaha I love when it turned to Chaeyeon's dorm at 11:20 and you said it looks more calm but just minutes later they're fighting over boxes XD And they are indeed calmer most of the time just because most of the chaotic members were in Eunbi's dorm, and Chaeyeon exudes authority as the Dorm Mom unlike Eunbi so the kids listens to her
