Intro
🕺: The day after tomorrow is coming of age day! Congrats, my sis! 🎉👏
🐨: Congrats, Souchin’s sis! 👏👏👏👏
🕺: I think it’s only my sister [in his friend circle that is celebrating Coming of Age day]

🕺: How is it? [His sis and shunty]
🕺, 🐨: Are 20!
🕺: Congrats, twenty!
🐨: Congratssss
🕺: How was your Coming of Age Ceremony?
🐨: I had no idea what was going on
🕺: I didn’t have mine, actually
🐨: 😂
🕺: Because of Corona
🐨: Then we can’t continue [talking about this topic] 😂
🕺: Can’t tell you guys anything now

🕺: You do get to meet friends you haven’t seen in a while [at a Coming of Age Ceremony]
🐨: That’s true, like friends from middle school
🕺: I think that’s what make them great
🐨: That’s true~
🕺: I didn’t have a ceremony [but he met his friends]. It was fun~ You should do everything to enjoy yours
🐨: I will do my best💪

[Note: Shunty mightn't have been able to make it to his Coming of Age Ceremony. Coming of Age Ceremony in Japan for 2024 was held on January 8th, 2024, which was the same date BE:FIRST performed Glorious at the 102nd All Japan High School Soccer Tournament]

🐨: Anything that’s changed since I turned 20… For something huge, it might be I got to go drinking with [BE:FIRST] members?
🕺: That’s true. I actually drink a lot at 🐨’s place
🐨: True~
🕺: Out of the members whose house I go to the most, it’s probably 🐨
🐨: Mm.. I have darts lying around so we start playing it as we drink
🕺: A lot like a bar, 🐨’s house
🐨: 😂😂😂😂
🕺: Darts Bar, SHUNTO
🐨: Play some record while throwing darts, and alcohol on the side
🕺: It’s awesome. The total opposite of my house
🐨: 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🕺: My house is the epitome of “THE NOON” kind of house. 🐨’s is Nighttime
🐨: Yeah, nighttime
🕺: Anyways, congrats! [to his sis]

Re: TWS
🕺: Seventeen’s brother group – they’re good right?
🐨: Right?
🕺: I thought they’d be good when I gave them a listen. Then when I heard “Oh Mym:7s” it’s super good
🐨: The hook to start the song…
🕺: It’s got a nostalgic feel to it

Re: Everybody feat. Lil Uzi Vert
🕺: And Nicki-san too. When I heard the song choice of what they sampled, I knew it was gonna be good

🕺: BRUNO MARS IS PERFORMING AT TOKYO DOME FOR 7 DAYS!!! So we’re gonna pick our favorite Bruno Mars songs. It’s quite impossible for me to pick just one. I picked “The Lazy Song” please perform this one! 🙏
🐨: He did a self-cover of this, with his dog, I chose 777

RYUHEI & CreepHyp
🌍: That was a pretty good intro wasn’t it?
🐉: Noo, I tripped over my words 💦 (🌍: 🤣) I’m very nervous right now

🐉: I went to see your lives recently, it hit me straight to the heart
🌏: Awwh thank you 🙏
🌏: I think, you came to greet us and we gave you a t-shirt…
🐉: Oh, the members all told me, “That’s great!” later
🌏: I’m happy you wore it too
🐉: I was super happy! Bragged about it to my parents too, holding a bag of merch telling them I got it directly from them [artist]!
🌏: I’m thankful, and you actually did wear it….
🐉: Not at all, I really, really wanted to wear it
🌏: And then you came to our live too!
🐉: I never expected [a chance] to talk, then I got asked “Who do you want to talk to” so I thought I’ll give a name.. I really didn’t expect a chance to actually talk [to Seikaikan-san]
🌏: [When the offer came] I agreed to it right away
🐉: Eehhh?
🌏: I was aware you talked about us on the program (🐉: Oh really?!) and was grateful for that.
🐉: [That makes me] happy!
🌏: I was a little worried.. You said you like CreepHyp so I wasn’t sure if fans… Was it OK for you?
🐉: I haven’t been told anything… I’ve played a few songs and haven’t [heard anything]...
🌏: We do have a lot of [gp friendly] songs, more like, that’s all we have 😂 But there are a lot of people who pick the songs that stand out in a bad way, and talk about them. I think misunderstandings come up when you bring it up…
🐉: Ahh~ You’re often misunderstood
🌏: And they only say this to people who don’t know anything about us… “If you listen to CreepHyp you’re mentally ill”
🐉: “Mentally ill” 😩
🌏: So you’re OK right? You’re not mentally ill?
🐉: I’ve no idea, I’m not really aware [if he does].
🌏: We do get that a lot, “People who like CreepHyp are mentally ill”, weird things like that
🐉: Ah, so you want emphasize that…
🌏: Yeah, that we ARE NOT…. but, what do you think?
🐉: 😂I- I don’t have any prejudice or anything but I see [your point], there are people who say such things.
🌏: Yeah there are 🥺

🐉 & “A Request of a Lifetime” (Isshou no Onegai)
🐉: I like the lyrics. After saying “a request of a lifetime”, it goes “take the remote”
🌏: Or “add water to the humidifier”
🐉: Yeah, like other than word plays like that, there’s also consistency, so I’ve been listening to it a lot lately
🌏: Awwh, I’m glad!

🌏: After saying a request of a lifetime, I thought it would be interesting to know how trivial things could be said about the relationship between the two people [in the song]. When you say “Please lend me 1 million!” after saying a request of a lifetime.. It’s very different from asking if you can pass the remote right. It’s a bit too real, asking for 1 million. [Asking to pass the remote] isn’t a big deal, and you’ll probably continue to say it at times, so you may keep asking it for a lifetime. I wanted to write about a relationship where… you have this request that you’ll keep asking for a lifetime, and the other person understands and accepts it too.

🐉: What made you want to write this song?
🌏 actually couldn’t remember how he started writing the song, but it came from everyday, mundane things, like the remote or adding water to the diffuser, etc.

There are obviously some word plays but for this song they tried to go for a more subtle feel

“Kiken na Asobi”
🐉 saw this at their live in Zepp Haneda
🌏said he thought of each consecutive note individually rather than as a melody or chord, it was a new and strange song-making method but it’s an important song for him
The song didn’t get a lot of feedback when it was released, so he felt down. However, during the pandemic there were people that found the song and told him they enjoyed it. Although it took some time, it made him happy to know this song reached them.

Then 🌏asked what 🐉 preferred, to get feedback from fans about a song right away or some gaps in time.
🐉 says he prefers the latter because he – as an artist – has spent time soaking in the song but he understands how hearing feedback right away links directly with your motivation for the next step.

🌏 expands a bit on the benefits of hearing feedback much later, with some gaps in time – that you work harder because you aren’t hearing anything.

“Mi mo Futa mo nai Suiso”
🐉 asked what 🌏meant by “the kuso before a baito” and 🌏says sometimes when the tension is high in a live he’ll accidentally say people’s real names

🐉 mentions that he forgets lyrics if he’s standing (and not moving) or using a stand mic

🕺is a big fan of NewJeans
