Wasn't a fan of this radio show interview, tbh. I felt like it created unnecessary friction amongst the boys. I'm sure she meant well but it wasn't great for me. Also I feel like there's friction between Jackson and JB. I hope my hunch is wrong.

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

Yeah she seems like she has no idea how to read a room or think about how some questions can be awkward (but then again that can be said about a lot of SK hosts lbr)

Oohh why do you think they have friction?

[evivante.livejournal.com]

I can't really explain.. so here's a series of tweets that narrate what I feel (tweets not mine) https://twitter.com/ayleen_cookie/status/1196209488497434626?s=21

This is interesting. Tbh - as a disclaimer - there's been several instances where I haven't "noticed" these things while others have talked about them so I guess I can't really answer this buuut...

Like I've heard ppl say JB's been tired recently. That could be, iirc he's been on a pretty harsh diet, maybe that's one reason? Idk. Jackson I feel like everyone knows by now he's following very questionable life style to keep himself thin and "healthy" (tho he keeps getting sick the most out of all of them, even the members have acknowledged this).

My pov would've been that people a) do change with time and dynamics may shift from time to time and b) there's still also many instances in their vlive shows or music show bts that show them laughing and looking happy with each other and c) idk, they could be tired bc they've had a lot of demanding schedules on top of maybe not taking care of their bodies well enough.

Jinyoung recently talked about going for a full body health check and he got a perfect score for everything good, and tbh he looks healthy and hasn't talked about going on any harsh/bad diets, in comparison to others...

I hope someone else responds to you too bc I don't want to sound insensitive just bc I don't notice these things as well as others :( this is just my pov.

No that's totally okay and yes I get what you mean. I've just been feeling like this comeback is a little too stale in terms of their attitudes but I also want to think they're taking this mature concept a little too seriously and actually implementing it in everything they do, lol.

I just needed validation for my thoughts so I searched on twitter and came up with similar theories from fans as well, and yes there is also probably the diets that's affecting them. In Hard Carry 2.5 JB ate a whole lot so I hope his diet is better after the comeback....

Friction between Jackbum? Jackson has been heart-eyes mode since the tour lol

Other than that though I appreciate that they are obviously testy with each other sometimes. Doesn't matter how tight-knit they are, they are human beings who will bitch and fight. I'm more wary of groups that pretend everything is peachy 24/7.

idk if it's cuz he's in a relationship but JB is looking and feelin like a whole damn meal. jinyoung has been looking good lately too. his confidence is off the charts.
i really like their new ep. a lot more then their last release.

i haven't watched this yet (i'm sooo behind on all videos) but your question re: her hosting style makes me curious! what made you ask that? i generally think she's one of the better radio hosts because she always talks very familiarly to got7 and indulges them with their dumb jokes and stuff. she kind of has a warm motherly feel to her lmao but reading the comments above, there was a weird energy this time? interesting :o

i hate when they talk so much about dieting! probably just gonna skim through that talk when i finally get to this video. i think the jongkook hyung that jackson mentions is kim jongkook from running man? isn't he kind of jackson's fitness idol :')

anyways yes jb is looking so good! i love his long(er) hair and well,,, the nose piercing i don't think i need to scream about that every time but just i hope he knows that it's very appreciated and that it makes his perfect nose look even better!

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

It was a highly upvoted comment in the yt comment section that prompted the question. I guess she's not that bad bc you're right the boys seem comfortable with her? Maybe her style just isn't quite my cup of tea. I felt there was a lot of awkward moments in this lol.

[yuujinchous.livejournal.com]

ah okay i don't read comments a lot so i didn't even think of looking there! hmm definitely interesting. i liked her a lot when jjp were on her show during verse 2 and then when got7 were there during... 7 for 7? and she was pretty nice and funny there but yeah i can see how she would focus on some specific details more than necessary!

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

I just happened to see it while I looked this up on youtube and wanted to see if people here agreed. Maybe it's just different strokes for different folks! I can see how she also be very sweet and non-threatening in a way?

But I do remember, while watching this episode, thinking "wow this lady sure is interested in their diets and losing weight huh" which I guess can be a little awkward and a turn-off for some people (esp in the context of SK culture/kpop).

[yuujinchous.livejournal.com]

ahhh i watched it now (lmao) and yes yes i definitely see it now! the way jb cut her off... dhfgkdfjgf i love him. that was legit like 15 minutes into the show when i checked so yeah... really more than necessary to talk about dieting when there's much more important things on the agenda!

anyways got7 still as cute as ever! they're tired and stressed but still so lively and just... happy. i hope you get a reply from the user above because now i'm curious too i wanna know what friction they saw between jb and jackson because to me they seemed pretty normal? i mean they sat a little too far away from each other to really talk to each other so there's not much to analyze there in the first place but yeah :o i'm curious

I'm only 10 minutes into the interview but she gives me Nosy Korean Aunt vibes sdkjshj

[sonagi.livejournal.com]

Ok having watched the whole thing, it wasn't that awkward imo but I can see why fans who aren't used to this style would think so. It felt very much like a typical inter-generational conversation (hence she gave off Korean Aunt vibes lol) in that they talked a lot about food & dieting, yeah those aren't the most ideal topics but I think it's important to keep cultural perspective too. JB skirted the line when he tried to redirect the convo lol but overall both sides were good sports imo

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

That make sense. I guess I wish they had radio interviews with people more close to their age and vibe lol. Like in the West how many "old" people are interviewing young trendy artists (sans morning shows)?
(oh well, maybe this is more of a morning show-typa thing then)
