The host asks Somi what her connection to Nmixx is and Somi says that she and Lily overlapped as JYP trainees. Lily says that she feels slightly shy (awkward) in front of ‘idol’ Somi [implying that they’ve known each other for so long as friends & former trainees before their idol debuts].
Host asks if Somi chose Nmixx because she wanted to see Lily. Somi replies that she was always really curious how Lily had been doing, and that they recently briefly ran into each other (with Nmixx) at a university festival. She adds that Lily was quiet and low key as a trainee but at the festival Lily was all “hi unnie you’re so pretty today, good luck today, I’ll be sure to watch your stage!”
Somi said that really short but very welcome interaction made her want to catch up more with Lily (and also meet Nmixx); and her (Somi) being one of the co-hosts of the show (LiveWire) gave her a great reason to do so.
Host mentions how he heard that Lily felt excited about being invited to the show by Somi. Lily agrees and says how it’d been a long time since she and Somi had spent time together in person (she’d been following Somi online/on socials/etc), and she was also really curious how Somi had been doing after that short but welcome interaction at the festival.
Host notes how both Somi & Lily seem emotional at the moment, being longtime friends. Somi says that Lily’s Korean is really good now and how she must’ve studied hard in her Korean classes when she was a trainee. She adds that was around the time they’d lost touch regularly [T/N – likely was around 2018 or 2019 when Somi left JYPE for The Black Label, after IOI disbanded].
