BE:FIRST J-Wave SPARK MONDAY #31 2022.08.08 summary (SOTA, LEO)

[shizuna]

Summary of BE:FIRST's J-Wave SPARK MONDAY #31 from August 8, 2022

Following BE:FIRST's major debut in November, 2021, they had their first regular radio program with J-Wave SPARK MONDAY starting January, 2022. Other than responding to listener messages and questions, the boys also established their own corners and reacted to music submissions from listeners later on.

Note 1: The following is a summary rather than a full-on transcription of the show. Will sometimes include notes / comments by me in square brackets or a context note at the end of an episode.

Note 2: Episodes of SPARK MONDAY starting August, 2022 is when I started making the summaries longer, so each week's episode will be its own post!

Note 3: This episode was broadcasted the day of the digital release of "Move On (Re-recorded)" which was the second week of the digital release of songs from THE FIRST in each week of August, 2022 leading up to the physical release of BE:FIRST's first album, BE:1. You can read more about BE:1 on the BMSG Wiki!

some bts talk from fuji rock:
how did they communicate with jonas blue - Ryoki, and the rest was vibes. Jonas Blue's dad was there too

re-recording Move On:
Leo used more of his chest voice, and used falsetto for "i got, i got myself", overall though LEO did not have to make a lot of changes re-recording MO
souchin already liked Move On a lot, he didn't use "edge voice" but put a little bit more umph into his lines 🤔

ohhh, they did all the re-recording together in one session, these three songs:
be free
move on
shining one

souchin worried the least about MO 🤣

oh they did talk a little about star next stage rehearsals. (I got distracted with the re-recording talk lol)
LEO was fascinated with all the signs to bathrooms and dress rooms in three different langauges (japanese, english, Korean) and he wondered if he had to say "annyeonghaseyo" to K-pop groups

wait? Leo ain't good with memorizing choreo?

and that makes pretty much all of beef One Piece fans (souchin+LEO profess their love for Oda-sensei [the mangaka of One Piece])

Leo adds that he wants to do a tie-up song

and as a movie-guru, LEO likes the IMAX (One Piece Red premiered on IMAX. They all went to watch it on that first day [minus busy Ryoki])

the movie had a lot of tie-up songs this time, so him and souchin thinks it'll be real cool if they get to sing for One Piece.

LEO got so excited about Leonidas Kadaridasu his lisps came out a little

LOL, the corner allows wrong answers only 😂 Chef Souchin got particular about the making of mapo tofu (it's his dish) 🤣
