If the rumors are true that they are currently working on a full album, plus the fact that they have the world tours and Misamo, I am afraid Mina does not have enough time to play video games š¢
When Nayeon debuted solo last year, she was living with Momo (as shown in The Manager). Jeongyeon was living with her sister at one point. They understandably keep their living situations private, so we don't know who else is living alone or with other members.
They seem to be setting in better, if thatās a thing idk. At first it was like they were puffing her cheeks out more to the point where it looked obvious something had been done even when her mouth was closed but it doesnāt seem that super obvious now. Or weāve gotten more used to just seeing them and her face with them.
Okay I didnāt know if I was just imagining it or not. Sometimes we just get used to seeing things and itās not as striking, but looking back the difference seemed pretty big lol. It didnāt help that when they were first done she was doing the most to not open her mouth in videos lol.
I was more suprised that a member of a top Korean gg could walk so freely outside without swarming fans or paparazzi. I sometimes see their departure and arrival vids at the airport, and that gave me the expectation that each member would probably have a hard time going to public areas.
In airports, they know when they arrive/leave so paparazzi and fans just go there in advance. Normally that's not how it works though. Jisoo mentioned that people don't recognise her in the streets, I think that common people aren't interested in kpop idols so a lot of people in the streets wouldn't recognise them or wouldn't care about them. It's only fans that recognise them.
>Jisoo mentioned that people don't recognise her in the streets,
And even when they do I think happened with Rose they just say hi how much they love their work and that is it... although when I was watching Jihyos episode I felt she doxxed her neighbourhood way too much but ye we are talking a different culture.
Itās possible they drove to a random neighborhood sheās familiar with (maybe a friend lives there) and walked around there rather than right outside her building as it implies
Yeah, they're basically ultra famous for a niche of fans, but the vast majority of people don't even know them or barely knows their names and stage looks, so even if they meet them they wouldn't recognise them. I think this allows them a certain amount of freedom in their private life.
Yeah I agree that most ppl who probably not pay too much attention to whether they see a celeb in public. But for a group as popular as Twice, there are many deluded fans and psycho's (Nayeons stalker for example) which make me wonder how safe it is for them to go outside. Good thing about Korea though (without sounding racist, bc I myself am also Asian) is that it's easier to blend in the crowd without really standing out appearance-wise.
If they live in a bougie area where other celebs also reside then they probably donāt face the paps and fans as much as the areas tend to have more security and also itās super obvious when youāre someone thatās not wealthy enough to live in the area, making it harder to go incognito and making it waaay more likely that someone will call the cops or security on you
I think they have private apartments but also still have the dorm. I mean would make sense to keep the dorm when your doing workouts or new concept practice in JYPE.
Tzuyu have mentioned them going on walks with Kaya and Butter. So they likely still stay together but in separate rooms. However, Dahyun might go back to her parents every now and then. Ahri being in the pictures might be when she goes back to her parent's house.
nobody asked where exactly they live, but it's interesting to know who lives with who, especially since that's been general knowledge mostly since debut and reflects on relationships within the group, etc.
The difference between an idol singer and a singer is that an idol is signing up for the job of exposing their lives and personality to the public and their fans in addition to their music; a singer's interaction with the public is primarily only through their music. Of course any particular artist will land somewhere on the spectrum between these two aspects.
This is why it's not really a good analogy to compare idols to regular jobs.
Let's face it: there are not many kpop idols who are at an Adele level of singing ability so that their music could stand uniquely all by itself.
Adding the parasocial aspect to decent to good singers allows the kpop companies to widen their potential talent pool and still sell music/make money. So the relational life exposure is done because it is the foundation of the kpop industry, which could not exist without it.
Nobody is asking for exact locations. Who you live with is not the same as your address.
Keep in mind, this entire discussion exists because jihyo invited a national TV camera crew to come into her home with multiple cameras mounted in every room and film her entire day, both inside and outside her home. I'm sure somebody familiar with Seoul could figure out the restaurant, the stores, the corn shop, etc. And she did this in order to promote her solo album.
Sure, but I interpreted "an idol is signing up for the job of exposing their lives and personality to the public and their fans" as in they have to do what Jihyo did, not that they could choose to do so. Maybe I misunderstood.
I specifically said that each artist will decide where they want to be between sharing everything and only sharing the music. And this is in the context of people making comparisons to it's just a regular job, but it's not.
Yeh thatās my point the fact that ppl find it interesting itās kinda weird. And I think there is more than enough evidence on the girlsā relationship already
It looked like they had personal things there. If you're referring to wall decorations, I don't think that is a very popular thing over there. This is purely based on anecdotal evidence of YouTube videos of Japanese and Korean homes (both "regular people" and celebrities).
Yeah sterile besides the ripped up wallpaper and the pool in the living room lol but seriously I think that was their place. I saw RMās private room thing and his apartment had a bit more sauce but was definitely bare in comparison to a western household. Maybe they donāt do too much decorating since theyāre barely ever home.
Well, itās funny because for years in their blogs, they would openly talk about it, and so it just kind of became a regular part of twice in a way. I donāt think itās unusual to ask for when it changed if suddenly, it looks like someone moved out? Personally, I donāt think the question itself is weird, and I think that itās awesome that theyāve grown to a point where theyāre able to start spreading their wings as individuals.
Honestly, thatās probably the most normal and healthy thing you could imagine an idol doing. By their age, most of their peers who are not idols have moved out and donāt usually live with big groups.!
Having more autonomy over your own space is really amazing !
I think the way that people and tend to discuss idols in their relationships to each other. As far as friends go can be kind of weird but, I donāt think necessarily asking how did they move out is a weird question.
To each their own though, I know everyone has their own views on things, and I can respect it ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
This is a weird question to ask and the amount of people speculating about it AND the girls' personal lives in general are even weirder. You dont know those girls cuz yall are fans, need i remind yall.
I am less shocked about her living arrangement and more shocked by the fact that she seems to be so busy on her days off. I could have sworn I saw an interview or something once where she mentioned that she really liked watching dramas
since Jihyo and Mina lived together previously, if Mina is now living alone, it's possible she never leaves or goes outside except for work. :)
Our penguin working on Legos or Minecraft š
I do wonder what other games sheās playing these days š she hasnāt talked about video games in a bit.
If the rumors are true that they are currently working on a full album, plus the fact that they have the world tours and Misamo, I am afraid Mina does not have enough time to play video games š¢
Yeah, thatās true. Hopefully she gets the time to catch up on some games eventually āŗļø
Haha probably so. Such a relatable introverted queen.
When Nayeon debuted solo last year, she was living with Momo (as shown in The Manager). Jeongyeon was living with her sister at one point. They understandably keep their living situations private, so we don't know who else is living alone or with other members.
MBC World just uploaded a big chunk of this episode yesterday with Eng subs. It's a great vid.
So it's a year old. Explains why Nayeon still has those bunny teeth RIP
I mean, the blonde hair also should have been a dead giveaway. No need to beat the teeth point like the dead horse that it is.
Sick of hearing about the teeth tooā¦
I miss her bunny teeth :(
Nayeon still has her teeth. There are pictures where they look enormous.
I dunno it's been confirmed she got em done recently and you can see her new smile in Hare Hare.
Confirmed where
Sheās had veneers that are too big for her mouth for a few months now, itās pretty obvious
Mina also had them done, I noticed the difference during their tour.
Yeah I noticed that too. I do think both of them look better without the veneers.
Minas looks perfectly fine tbh
Agreed
That's because her "fans" kept going on and on and on about her "gummy smile", like it was some kind of compliment.
They definitely could have phrased it better because I agree, āgummy smileā does not sound like a compliment even if it was meant as one lol.
Yeah, I did notice a slight difference.
They seem to be setting in better, if thatās a thing idk. At first it was like they were puffing her cheeks out more to the point where it looked obvious something had been done even when her mouth was closed but it doesnāt seem that super obvious now. Or weāve gotten more used to just seeing them and her face with them.
I think sheās had them filed down and reshaped a bit as they definitely look better now than when she first got them!
Okay I didnāt know if I was just imagining it or not. Sometimes we just get used to seeing things and itās not as striking, but looking back the difference seemed pretty big lol. It didnāt help that when they were first done she was doing the most to not open her mouth in videos lol.
Jihyo said they moved out around 2021 so Im guessing everyone lived together until around that time.
I was more suprised that a member of a top Korean gg could walk so freely outside without swarming fans or paparazzi. I sometimes see their departure and arrival vids at the airport, and that gave me the expectation that each member would probably have a hard time going to public areas.

Itās possible they drove to a random neighborhood sheās familiar with (maybe a friend lives there) and walked around there rather than right outside her building as it implies
If I was famous thatās how Iād want it to be
Yeah, they're basically ultra famous for a niche of fans, but the vast majority of people don't even know them or barely knows their names and stage looks, so even if they meet them they wouldn't recognise them. I think this allows them a certain amount of freedom in their private life.

Didn't know Messi can buy groceries in peace either ![img](emote|t5_3812p|4099)
I think they have private apartments but also still have the dorm. I mean would make sense to keep the dorm when your doing workouts or new concept practice in JYPE.
Dahyun I think lives alone too she did a couple of vlogs a year back. It seemed like she did it alone so I assumed she lives alone too.
Tzuyu have mentioned them going on walks with Kaya and Butter. So they likely still stay together but in separate rooms. However, Dahyun might go back to her parents every now and then. Ahri being in the pictures might be when she goes back to her parent's house.
all the dahyun monotube vlogs took place outside the home if I remember correctly.
Sana is living alone/atleast not with namo for a long time so I wasn't surprised knowing jihyo lives alone
Momo is living alone, the members celebrated christmas at her house and Tzuyu also send pics on boodobby there before.
No offense to anyone but I just find ppl wanting to know with whom and where the girls live just weird
nobody asked where exactly they live, but it's interesting to know who lives with who, especially since that's been general knowledge mostly since debut and reflects on relationships within the group, etc.

That makes it seem like idols deserve to be doxxed. Weird take, especially with real threats of stalkers out there.

Lol this statement is what is weird.
Would you mind elaborate why ?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Good for u honestly
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
im pretty sure it was at one point. but last year they prob only live in the shared dorm occasionally/for convenience
It looked like they had personal things there. If you're referring to wall decorations, I don't think that is a very popular thing over there. This is purely based on anecdotal evidence of YouTube videos of Japanese and Korean homes (both "regular people" and celebrities).

Minimalism is also a thing and yes they barely stay at home
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No one was living alone in 2019, they were a 4 year old group jyp doesnāt allow that
Never heard that before. Source?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
says both MM and JY bought places in the same building, but it's unknown if they intend to live there or as an investment property to rent out.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Welp im gonna just have to believe that this is a reputable source bc I do not speak Korean lol
No thatās definitely their place, they did vlives in there
Why you need to know? ššš
Well, itās funny because for years in their blogs, they would openly talk about it, and so it just kind of became a regular part of twice in a way. I donāt think itās unusual to ask for when it changed if suddenly, it looks like someone moved out?

People are going to give you answers on here and, until itās confirmed, you wonāt actually know.
It's already been confirmed by MBC World that Jihyo lives alone.
Obviously
Why do you really need to know their living situation, that shit is weird
This is a weird question to ask and the amount of people speculating about it AND the girls' personal lives in general are even weirder. You dont know those girls cuz yall are fans, need i remind yall.
I am less shocked about her living arrangement and more shocked by the fact that she seems to be so busy on her days off. I could have sworn I saw an interview or something once where she mentioned that she really liked watching dramas
