IN-’VERSE INFO

The following idols are informed they’ve been chosen in early August and will be sent a contract to sign: @fmdhyoyeon, @fmdartemisia, @fmdxsuwei, @fmdhyuk, @alicefmd, @fmdminhee, @fmdtaejin, @durifmd, @fmdheesung, @miyeonfmd, @fmdwoochan, @fmdrina, @fmdjaeyeol, @fmdting, @fmdsan, @fmdminah, @fmdsooah, @fmdminjung, @fmdsophie, @fmdjynx They will be told not to share the news of their casting with anyone yet and sharing the news with anyone outside of their management before they’ve been officially announced will result in them being removed from the cast and replaced.

The cast members will be paired up as follows, with the designated filming date (for a twenty-four hour span from the afternoon/evening of day one to the afternoon/evening of day two):

Lipstick’s Artemisia & Fuse’s Sooah - August 7 - August 8

Lipstick’s Ruby & Lucid’s Hyoyeon - August 8 - August 9

Lipstick’s Minnie & Lucid’s Suwei - August 9 - August 10

Fuse’s Minjung & Lucid’s Alice - August 14 - August 15

Fuse’s Miyeon & WISH’s Rina - August 15 - August 16

Knight’s Hyuk & Unity’s Ting - August 16 - August 17

Knight’s Duri & Unity’s Jaeyeol - August 16 - August 17

Decipher’s Taejin & Knight’s Heesung - August 21 - August 22

Knight’s Woo & Alien’s San - August 22 - August 23

Aria’s Jynx & WISH’s Sophie - August 29 - August 30

(admin note: The date of the first day of filming should have been checked to work around all muses’ schedules with the consideration idols do not attend music shows on Mondays and some schedules may happen on the morning of the day they meet, but if you notice any problems, please send in a message and the date will be fixed!)

Before the first meeting, each pair member will be driven to the filming location by a manager and told whether they are the younger or older “sibling” of their pair, but not the identity of their partner. They will then be asked the following interview questions by their manager and are expected to answer them as if having a casual conversation with their manager. There will be three cameras stationed in the car for different angles of the interview “conversation”.

What are the traits you think you should show as a good younger/older sibling?

What kind of personality would you like your older/younger sibling to have and why?

What might surprise your sibling about you if they only know you as a celebrity?

The idol member will then have their partner’s identity revealed by their manager by playing the message from their audition as linked above (if their partner didn’t say their name, their manager will tell them who it is).

What do you think about your partner now that their identity has been revealed? From what you know of them, what are they like / what do you think they are like?

Following the conclusion of the in-car interview, they will be taken to the location of their first meeting: an apartment rented out by production and set up with mounted cameras where they’ll be spending twenty-four hours together to get to know each other. They’ll be aware that this is the setting and concept for the first day of filming beforehand.

The older “sibling” will arrive first and will be given time by themselves to get to know the apartment, which will include everything the pair might need, like food in the fridge, a video camera and Polaroid camera, board/card games, and pair-specific props like a guitar, a karaoke machine, cooking essentials, video games, etc. based on public knowledge of the interests of each member of the pair. Each idol will also be allowed to bring a single bag of their own full of anything they may need overnight like pajamas, toothbrush, snacks, bonding activities, etc. 

Examples of what the apartment might look like are here, here, and here.

The younger “sibling” will arrive after the older “sibling” has had about thirty to forty-five minutes in the apartment on their own.

In addition to everything else in the apartment, each pair will also have also have a “secret notebook” which will include questions and tasks for the pair to get to know each other including the following:

Have three meals meeting the following requirements:

Leave the apartment for one meal mutually agreed upon by both siblings.

For another meal, cook together using what’s supplied in the kitchen.

For another meal, order take out agreed upon by both siblings to be delivered to the apartment.

Take Polaroid photos together as proof of this memory.

Teach each other the point dances of one of your songs.

Use the projector set up in the living room to watch a reel of moments (stages, variety appearances, etc.) from each of your careers prepared by production and discuss your experiences as an idol.

Share your concerns with each other.

A note is included in the notebook including these missions and telling them they should work to achieve every mission by the time they part at the end of the twenty-four hours.

Outside of these missions, the “sibling” pairs will largely have free reign over what they discuss and what they do within the apartment with their twenty-four hours together, although everything should remain family-friendly and image-conscious and idols should not be too candid about any frustrations with their company, their group members, or their fans.

When/if the pair sleep, they’ll sleep in the same large bed like real siblings might do in their childhood.

At the conclusion of their first day together, they’ll do separate talking head interviews before leaving:

Was there anything that surprised you about your sibling during the time you spent together?

What was the most memorable part of the twenty-four hours you spent with your sibling?

Do you feel that you opened up to your sibling or is there still a barrier between you two?

What would you like to do with your sibling next time you meet?

OUT OF ‘VERSE INFO

The final number of submissions was twenty with even numbers of muses by gender, so all muses submitted were cast in the show, although the casting process would have been selective in-character. Pairing was semi-random as complete randomization was not possible while still keeping pairs realistic and making sure muns weren’t paired up more than once across multiple muse submissions!

IN-’VERSE INFO

After their trip around Korea last month, the pairs are informed shortly after their Chuseok filming that they’ll be going on either a two day-one night trip or a one day-two night trip out of the country with their partner for the first part of filming for the final two episodes. At the time, they’re told the city and the dates they’re scheduled to travel.

Assigned cities(/counties) and the dates the pairs will be visiting are as follows: 

October 18-20 (one day, two nights): Knight’s Duri & Unity’s Jaeyeol - Hong Kong

October 20-21 (two days, one night): Lipstick’s Artemisia & Fuse’s Sooah - Seattle, USA 

October 21-22 (two days, one night): Lipstick’s Ruby & Lucid’s Hyoyeon - Gold Coast, Australia

October 22-23 (two days, one night): Lipstick’s Minnie & Lucid’s Wei - Guam 

October 25-27 (one day, two nights): Decipher’s Taejin & Knight’s Heesung - Hanoi, Vietnam

October 27-28 (two days, one night): Fuse’s Miyeon & WISH’s Rina - Chiang Mai, Thailand

October 29-30 (two days, one night): Fuse’s Minjung & Lucid’s Alice - Singapore

November 1-3 (one day, two nights): Alien’s San & Unity’s Ting - Taipei, Taiwan

(admin note: The date of filming should have been checked to work around all muses’ schedules with the consideration idols from the three companies do not attend music shows on Mondays, but if you notice any problems, please send in a message and the date will be fixed!)

The aim for this trip is to show how the pair have grown more comfortable together, from a full day in together to a small trip outside of the city to an out-of-country trip. Each member of the pair will be asked to write a letter to the other that they’ll exchange in the final hours of their trip.

Before the trip each member of the pair will be pulled aside to film a talking head interview:

Have you ever been to the city you’ll be visiting with your sibling before? If so, what do you remember it being like? If not, what do you expect it to be like?

You’ve been tasked with writing a letter to your sibling. Do you know what you want to say to them in it yet?

What is the top thing you want to do, eat, or see in the city you’ll be visiting?

Each pair will have relative freedom as to where they go and what they do during their short trip (as long as all activities are family friendly, image appropriate, within a reasonable budget, and reasonably able to be filmed) and a small crew will be sent with them to their location. They’ll stay in a hotel room together (with two beds) at their location for either one night or two nights depending on their assigned trip type. For two day, one night trips, pairs will arrive on the morning of the first date and depart in the evening of the second date. For one day, two night trips, pairs will arrive in the evening or night of the first date and leave early in the morning of the third date. The show will pay for necessities like transportation and food during the trip, but any souvenirs and the like will have to be bought with the cast member’s own money. Each cast member will be given a self-cam during this trip in addition to the camera crew that will go with them. 

After all pairs have returned from their trip, the second part of the episodes will be filmed on November 9 at a large house outside of Seoul that has been rented out for the day for filming. This will be the final filming of this season of the show and it will another meeting of all of the siblings where everyone will show off the bond they’ve formed over the course of the show by competing in games against each other. These will consist of physical games like wheelbarrow races and pair volleyball as well as less physical games like charades and paired video games. Not all pairs will participate in all games, but all pairs must participate in a full-group sibling version of The Newlywed Game where the pairs are asked a question about one "sibling” and the other sibling must give the same answer their sibling gave to see how well they’ve come to know each other. 

At the conclusion of their final day of filming, each member of the sibling pair will do their final talking head interviews:

Think about the first time you met your sibling. How has your relationship with them grown since then?

Do you feel you’ve gotten to know your sibling better over the course of the show?

Would you like to keep in touch with your sibling now that the show’s come to an end?

You’ve already exchanged letters with your sibling, but is there anything you’d like to tell them now for them to hear when they watch the finale of the show?

LOVE & LIVE:

For the beginning of the month, the members of the song (@fmdyoohyeon, @fmdhaseo, @fmdsiyeon, @fmdxsuwei) will continue to have sparse rehearsals together up until the release of their song on May 11.

On May 12, the members will attend The Show for their first special promotional stage. The four members will all go to the salon together early in the day before arriving at the SBS studio. They will be granted a waiting room of their own up until they pre-record their stage a few hours before broadcast time. They will not stay around for the live broadcast of the show (unless they have other schedule reasons to do so).

The members will repeat this schedule for all music shows on the 13-18 as well.

During their promotions, each idol will also be guided to take a number of selfies that will be chosen from by staff as photo cards for the physical mini-album for the COLLA3ORATE project.

During their promotion period, the four idols will be informed that they have one more song to record — a special bonus track that will only be available on the physical version of the mini-album all of the singles will be released on. All that is required of them is to record their assigned parts, as there will be no promotions or other activities for these “secret” b-side tracks. The idols will be given the demo beforehand and will be scheduled to record one day out of May 20, May 25, or May 31 depending on schedules (the day is up to the mun as long as the muse is in Seoul on the chosen date!). Line distribution for this track can be found here.

All idols (@fmdsamsoo, @fmdtaeyong, @seungwoofmd, @fmdhyunsoo, @fmdsan, @fmdjoosung) chosen for this song will have been informed and sent the full demo of the song on March 15.

On April 27, they will arrive separately at the Dimensions Entertainment building to record the track. As the song will be released with Dimensions Entertainment’s resources, most of the preparations for the song will occur at the building. This is their first time working together and the recording session will be filmed, so before they go into the studio, they will get some time to get introduced to each other. The members will then go into the recording booth in the following order: main or lead vocal (kevin), main or lead vocal (soohyun), vocal (hoon), vocal (kiseop), rapper (jun), and rapper (eli). All vocalists will record all vocal parts and all rappers will record all rap parts, but the producers present will focus in on parts for each idol that they determine matches their voice well to record more takes of (these parts will reflect the line distribution). The six idols will be treated to dinner by a manager all together following the wrap on recording.

On April 30, the idols will once again return to the Dimensions Entertainment building for a concept meeting. During the concept meeting, they will be given an overview for the anticipated wardrobe and the MV storyboard in addition to more details on the overall concept of the release.
