Hey guys, we are NCT 127 and this is--

Yeah. Get it.

Yeah.

(upbeat music)

Alright, let's go right to the questions then.

SufferBean--

Whoa. Yeah.

Hi!

Okay, well that's a lot of questions.

Let's take 'em one at a time.

Okay. Yeah, yeah.

How does one define K-pop star?

I mean, K-pop stands for Korean pop and that's it.

Basically, you just become a star.

Do they specifically have to be from Korea?

We have Chinese members and Japanese members,

and also Korean and American and Canadian members,

so I think that doesn't matter.

Yeah. So, no.

Do they need to have the same fan base

that use a similar terminology or do you

just need the aesthetic?

[All] Mae.

MaeganDeeble, from MaeganDeeble.

I think, maybe, my new career goal

is to produce a K-pop music video.

How do I do that?

With NCT.

Yeah, you gotta start off with NCT.

Yes. I'm waiting for you.

Yes, yes.

Waiting for you.

We're waiting. Yes, welcome.

Just, you gotta have our name under your,

under your belt, alright.

By Mia Sage.

Yes, Mia Sage. Hi.

I don't understand all these giant K-pop groups.

Okay.

When there's so many of you

how tf do you guys get along?

It might get a little rowdy at times,

but I think that's a good thing as well.

And also it's easy to get along

because we have the same goal,

and I think that's really good to have.

Yeah, and Taeil says it, we're like a big family.

Yeah. Woo!

Daisy.

Daisy. Daisy.

@aus-tra-li-chan?

Australichan, okay.

Yo, does anyone know how K-pop concerts work?

I'm planning on attending two over the summer

and I've never been to one.

Like, do they have acts that open for them

like American ones do?

K-pop concerts, they vary depending on the artist

and depending on the concept.

But usually it's mostly without open acts,

it's usually the K-pop star itself.

We want you to come.

Come, come, come, come, come, come, come!

And follow me.

See us. I'm waiting for you.

Michelly?

Michelly, okay.

How do all the K-pop stars have such nice skin?

What water do they drink?

He saying the Korean water,

maybe it's good for us, I don't know.

Alo-vostra-ra.

Does anyone like know how K-pop groups

get their customer outfits made?

Like do they outsource them

or do companies have in house designers?

We have a style designer and they actually come in

and they measure our length and everything,

perfect measurements.

Yes. It's perfect.

@du-geun-aiee?

This name is (speaking in foreign language).

How in the world do K-pop stars train?

I mean, they dance like robots, super in sync.

And then we stop at each moment.

We measure our degree.

Same, same. The angles.

We gotta get 'em sharp.

You know, it's like knives,

we gotta get those edges sharp.

(speaking in foreign language)

We get a ruler, even if you guys aren't right

for the smallest amount, we gotta go again.

90 degrees.

90 degrees, we want this part at 45 degrees.

Degrees. Oh 38.7.

Okay, okay, 90 degrees.

You gotta take out the protractor, you know.

Whoever gets it wrong, they have to buy sushi.

[All] Yes!

And they gotta buy,

they gotta buy food. Sushi or coffee.

Alright, next question.

From Meredith, please.

How do K-pop stans learn Korean?

With our songs, our lyrics.

Yes, sing along to our songs.

Social media content and I guess they

pick it up from that as well.

NCT Life.

Yes, we have NCT Life.

We have a lot things outside of performances as well

where everyone can learn Korean.

Love makes you learn quickly.

And we're still learning Korean too.

Let's be honest.

looking so good even after drying it so many times?

Treatment.

Yeah, conditioner. Treatments.

Conditioner, lots of conditioner.

Shampoo, shampoo. Shampoo.
