They won’t be able to sleep tonight

142
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:54.000
Yes, it come to my mind that my first award

143
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:55.500
Was a whopping 6 years ago

144
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:59.000
Whopping 6 years ago? Can you remember that time?

145
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:02.000
Yes, I was so happy I cried so much

146
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:07.000
Then EUNBI, which one is happier

147
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:10.000
Being awarded by solo or group?

148
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:14.000
Ah, I cannot choose one

149
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:15.000
Yeah, I agree

150
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.000
You're also a regular winner at award ceremonies

151
00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:21.050
You've received many rookie awards last year

152
00:09:21.050 --> 00:09:24.000
You've received awards at several ceremonies

153
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:25.900
When is the time you remember the most?

154
00:09:25.900 --> 00:09:30.000
I think the award I received for the first time is the most memorable for me as well

155
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:34.000
Since the rookie award is an award that can only be received once in a lifetime

156
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:38.650
I think it's the most memorable award in my life

157
00:09:38.650 --> 00:09:41.900
Even among the top 4 winners of the Universal Hot Focus

158
00:09:41.900 --> 00:09:44.500
There must be a team winning an award for the first time today

159
00:09:44.500 --> 00:09:48.000
It will surely be a moment they will never forget

160
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.000
That's right, my beloved juniors

161
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:55.000
I hope you use this award as a stepping stone to grow into even greater artists

162
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:57.000
I will always support you

163
00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:58.000
Fighting!

164
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:02.000

I heard you've been deeply into idol dance these days

171
00:10:22.050 --> 00:10:23.500
I like dancing

172
00:10:23.550 --> 00:10:26.750
How about filming a challenge before you go?

173
00:10:26.750 --> 00:10:30.400
If you join me, I would gladly accept

174
00:10:30.400 --> 00:10:31.350

Got it. I'll be waiting

178
00:10:35.150 --> 00:10:36.000
