KR:DAILY / PLAYLIST V.4

PROMPT WEEK: 07/31 - 08/06

The truth was, Tzuyu didn’t care much about the damage of hair dye. Granted, she’d be upset if she’d end up with burnt her, but the experiments her stylists had done so far hadn’t amounted to that: enough masks, deep conditioning, and the utmost care with her dyeing process had ensure that her locks remained silky, whether her hair was brown, black, red, blue or even purple - and she’d went through them all, and some shades in between, too (she still remembered her shock when deep blue had turned into green, the panic in her voice when she’d called the hairstylist to ask about it).

And, just as truthfully, she didn’t care much for the brown. Not on her, in particular, she knew she looked good with it, and she was happy to lighten her hair, most of the time, but it seemed… boring. She’d envied Sana’s cotton candy pink hair at the MAMAs, in the year they’d debuted, and had whined so much about it that she’d been allowed to change, but, as of late, she’d been alternating black and brown so much that she desperately felt the need for change again. “I’m glad you think so, oppa!” She replied, politely, folding her hands together, though she only manages to be silent for a moment before she finds herself blurting out. “But… I miss… I don’t know, I miss something different. Something that will stand out…”

With their upcoming world tour just a few days ahead, Wonwoo was familiar with the desire for a change, seeming that most of his members already aimed for a different image to present to their Carats. Hoshi with bright orange, S.Coups with red, they do look pretty fancy in his mind after all. Truth be told, he had nothing against the subject as he was already guilty of it for a few eras now, but what could be cooler to show to international fans besides the performances itself? Sure, many effects on stage or even new outfits to try on but, the crowd already expects that. His mind began to switch from opposing opinions to another, especially after hearing her words. “Ah, I understand you. Hmm, what is one shade you have yet to try but...really want to do?”, he asks, tapping his own finger on his chin, “Have you.. ever tried going platinum blonde before? I’m curious, that seems to be in nowadays, right?”

Since Wonwoo is now on tour, all threads will be held in the past or SMS.

            Inside jokes within SVT’s fandom can somehow manage to spread to other idols, including his own friends to his misfortune. He was always clueless as to why Lisa would continuously call Wonwoo her favorite “emo boy”, despite him being aware of his usual cold demeanor to others at first glance. Although it seems as if he is unhappy due to his facial features at times, those who know him well enough, a rare few outside of SVT, have already seen a sweeter side of him, a side far from being what many describe as “emo”. However, that does not stop anyone from bringing up how he acted and looked in the past-- I mean, he did want to become an artist because of the rock band trend anyways, but the change of how he is now is quite drastic.

            Rolling his eyes upon the latter’s words, he titled his head to express his slight irritation, “Lisa, how many times do I have to tell you, I’m not even emo, I don’t listen to MCR, would you quit it?”, he exclaimed with a playful tone. It was somewhat obvious that Wonwoo was only joking about feeling deeply offended as his past is always something to laugh at. However, he was the type who wouldn’t let others see past the meaning of his words, “How am I emo? Tell me, don’t you get emotional at times? Remember when you cried when you won on a music show this era? So you’re emo too, aren’t you?”

AGE: 21 (Korean), 20 (International) BIRTHPLACE:  Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea LENGTH OF TRAINING PERIOD? 4 Years WHAT’S DIFFICULT ABOUT THE FAMOUS LIFE? Hm, I would say not being able to see my family as often as I would like to. WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU’RE FILLED WITH? Intellect. AVERAGE HOURS OF SLEEP: Nowadays? 3-4 IF YOU WERE BORN AGAIN, WOULD YOU WANT TO BE FAMOUS? Of course. ‘IF I MAKE MONEY, THEN...’ Then I’d buy a lot more books-- and give back to my family. WHERE DO YOU WANT TO BE IN 20 YEARS? Have a family? Still performing as SEVENTEEN?  THE IDOL WHOSE LOOKS YOU ENVY THE MOST? Should I envy someone’s? ㅋㅋ Seungcheol hyung’s; he looks really manly and cool.

                Ah, hair dye, one of the majority of idols’ first concerns whilst preparing for a comeback-- something to portray a major change in a concept or image to potentially leave their fans or any audience in awe. The difference of shades never fails to help with an individual’s looks as well, as a type of color may suit them better than other idols, thus creating a bit of an insecurity for most. Although the hair stylists working for big companies may choose a color for them, sometimes it was a decision for the artists themselves to make on their own.

                With a small grin plastered upon his lips, he nodded gently towards the latter in agreement, “Ah, that’s good, I think you look better with a brown-ish tone anyways, you should keep it the way it is now”, he nods gently as his eyes scanned the latter’s features to reassure himself of his own statement, “Oh and plus, I believe I read something somewhere that hair dye can potentially be harmful for one’s body, especially when using the wrong choice of chemicals and such or when one uses it often.” Although Wonwoo is guilty of dyeing his hair more than once throughout his career, he always stayed cautious for himself thanks to the amount of research and books he reads to gain information on a wide variety of all things for his entertainment, and for the sake of increasing his knowledge. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you if I did, but in my opinion, you rock brown the best.”

            “EY, jeon squared. hyung! you need to rest up before the tour too, don’t overwork yourself.” with a nod , he looks at the latter with a snort and then a soft scoff. “c’mon, surely you’re gonna give the honorary 14th member of seventeen vip tickets, right? ah, the classic subject change–” a laugh slips past his lips and he grins. “thanks! it feels like we’ve graduated from being little boyscouts, actually. and, well, us and the company. since we’ve been getting international recognition, namjoon hyung decided to change our english meaning to beyond the scene. it felt a little weird at first but i like it now. it represents us and our army. anyway, back to the vip tickets–”

STARTER FOR: @wonwvs!

            “OH, hyung! it’s been a while– how have you been? i heard you guys are doing a tour soon; i’m getting vip tickets right?”

( a starter for @wonwvs )

        It was either her phone’s internet connection or the V-app hated her. Either way, she couldn’t watch the male’s previous VLive. In fact, she couldn’t find it anywhere. The dancer literally scrolled up and down at least ten times to find his familiar looking face as a thumbnail but nothing. Absolutely nothing. Only a short video appeared, but she didn’t believe it was the live session he was talking about. It seemed to last only a minute and what she has learned, live sessions lasted more than that. They could last for an hour.

❝I can’t find it, oppa!❞ And then you could see her phone being dramatically dropped next to her, close to his body. ❝You search it. Go to your group’s account and show it. You must have hidden it from me, haven’t you?❞ Followed by her words, there was a small teasing smile tugging onto her lips while the tongue slipped between her lips, her dark hues turned towards him and her whole facial expression showing she was just teasing him like she usually was.

Broadcasting his own V Live for SEVENTEEN’S Once A Day as a countdown for the start of their first ever world tour was a thrill as he was content from the immense amount of support his Carats had consistently displayed throughout its entirety. In the past, Wonwoo’s confidence for his singing ability was barely conveyed, a complete contrast on how it was in the present as he was able to express his second talent with ease on his live broadcast. His V Live lasted about 15 minutes long, shorter than the average video duration due to the fact that he had to return to their strict practice session in preparation for “Diamond Edge”. Despite how tiring it was to rehearse for many hours of the day, he found it to be more rewarding for both himself and his fans, knowing that they will showcase a better image of themselves. 

With the rush of compliments surging through his mind, not only did Wonwoo feel his ego raise slightly, but he was finally proud of himself for witnessing how much he had improved vocally albeit having more room to grow. Nonetheless, he felt entirely pleased-- that is, until the female brought an issue to his attention. “What do you mean you can’t find it? I did it, I’m sure I did, right?”, he asked with concern coating his voice, unsure whether or not he even managed to post one as he was a bit unfamiliar with new technology overall. Grabbing the latter’s phone that was thrown close to him, his wide eyes restored back to its default size whilst letting out a loud chuckle. “Woohee, you do know you have to subscribe to SEVENTEEN’S Channel+ in order to view it....right?”, he responded with wit as he placed his hand on top of the other’s head to pat it gently, “Don’t freak me out like that, dumb dumb, but did you still want to see it?”
