(The live stream will begin in a few minutes)
Oh, mom!
I ate, what about you?
Vitamins? Yeah, I took them too
Stop sending me Kimchi
It just ends up rotting in my fridge
Hello, everyone
Bringing you the latest updates on Ong Seong-wu at lightning speed
I’m your anchor, Ong Seong-wu
First, we reported last month that Ong Seong-wu
has completed his military service and returned to WELO’s side
Back in society, he shared that
this new beginning feels exciting and nerve-wracking
and he promised to meet you all more often
with an even cooler side of himself
Fans are eagerly anticipating
Ong Seong-wu’s future activities and plans
In particular, he made a bold statement at his fan meeting,
promising a spectacular performance
leaving the whole world curious
about what kind of stage he has in store
Now, let’s connect with the WELOs on site
WELOs on site
Are you ready to have an amazing time today?
If you're excited, make some noise!
Looks like you all skipped a meal before coming
If you're excited, make some noise!
'Jjiniya'
Hello, this is Ong Seong-wu
Everyone, are you having fun?
Are you ready to enjoy yourselves?
Make some noise WELOs!
Make some noise once more!
It’s great to see you
We’ve finally met
Let me say hi
Hello, I’m Ong Seong-wu
This time, I can finally hear your cheers at this fan meeting
During the previous fan meeting, I couldn’t hear any cheers
So I could only look into all of WELO's eyes
and you had to wear masks too, right?
So, even though I couldn’t fully see your smiling faces
I could tell from the way your eyes looked
and that’s how we spent our time then
But today, hearing the cheers of so many WELOs again
makes my heart race with excitement
Tonight’s show feels like about 70,000 people showed up
70,000!
I’ve made it
Can you show me the energy of 70,000 people?
Can I hear the cheers of 70,000 voices?
Are you ready?
Then let’s hear those 70,000 cheers
Make some noise!
That’s awesome
That’s it
But this cheering, it needs to keep going
You know that, right?
As we get toward the latter half
I can’t help but feel the energy dropping just a little bit
I just monitored the first show earlier
and I noticed that as we move from the first song to the later ones
the vibe slowly shifts into more of a listening session
Is your throat hurting?
What should we do about that?
I’ll be singing
and showing you so many different sides of me
but without your cheers, my confidence starts to fade a little
So please, cheer as loud as you can
And I’m hosting this all by myself
There's no host
Like the last fan meeting, I’m doing everything myself
which means I have to fill all the time by myself
If there’s no reaction while I’m talking
I start wondering... "Am I talking too much?"
"Should I cut it short? Do they feel bored?"
Those thoughts cross my mind
So please react and applaud a lot
Even if it's not funny, please just laugh
Although I just do like this, laugh
I’d really appreciate that kind of reaction
And I hope that we all enjoy the show
in a fun and energetic way
And there are some WELOs watching online
For WELOs whose watching online
if you shout at home
it could bother the neighbors
So please cheer loudly in your hearts
With that said, let’s get started
Actually, we were supposed to meet a month ago
but unfortunately it got postponed
so there was some disappointment
Because of that, I feel like our time together has become even more precious
Oh, it's this week!
Back then
my head seriously felt like it was going to explode
It was just a natural process
going through discussions,
making decisions,
and then diving right back into rehearsals
Starting rehearsals
the following week
I kept thinking, "I need to prepare even better"
"since I'm meeting a little later than planned"
"Let's make this reunion"
"even more special and create the happiest time together"
That thought stayed with me throughout my practice
Anyway, I really wanted to see you all as soon as possible
The first thing I mentioned at that time was
that I didn’t want it to take too long,
that I hoped we could do it quickly
and after going through all that,
we finally get to see each other today like this
That’s why I insisted on
starting with a fan meeting in Korea first
and that’s how it all came together
So I know many of you must have felt disappointed
after going through ticketing process twice
But today, I’ll make sure you have the best time
so there are no regrets
During the afternoon show, I seemed really nervous, didn’t I?
Or… did I not? What do you think?
It seems there are various opinions
Actually I was really nervous, my hands were trembling
and you know that feeling when your stomach feels all twisted
That feeling of stomach twisting from nerves
That's too much TMI?
Anyway, that’s when
I realized just how nervous I was
So for the evening show,
I just wanted to see WELO’s faces as soon as possible
It's hard to see faces first
At first, when I step out on stage feeling nervous
all I see is the bright lights, I can’t really see your faces
But for the second show, I wanted to see more of you and have more conversations
That way, I’d start to relax,
and everything would feel more natural
So even if I make mistakes or things aren’t perfect
I hope you’ll understand
And the ‘Jjiniya’ I just showed you
it’s a bit surprising, right?
It’s quite different from the songs I’ve sung
I sang Young Tak’s ‘Jjiniya’ for you
This song is actually
the one I sang the most
during my time in the military band
From the moment I joined
until the day I was discharged,
I sang this song so many times
Originally, four of us would stand in a line
and even do a little choreography
while singing this song
Whether we were performing at military appreciation events or other ceremonies
our job in the band wasn’t just to bring energy
but also to lift the mood
That’s why trot music was an essential part of our setlist
So as soon as I joined
I was immediately assigned to trot performances
As soon as I joined, I went right in saying
"I’ll do it, sir"
"It seems good, the choreography is really cool"
"It’s the best," "it’s super cool"
For a whole year, I kept performing it
and after my seniors were discharged
, I even taught the choreography to my juniors
"No, look"
"it’s not up, it’s down, and then Jjin Jjin Jjin Jjin"
I taught them like this
and kept the performance going until the end
So it’s the most familiar to me
I knew you’d all be curious about my military life
so I wanted to open the show in a bold and fresh way
I thought, "Let’s bring out the energy and charm of trot"
"make it lively and fun"
That’s why I chose 'Jjiniya' as the opening song
How was it?
I hear you saying it was good
Did anyone expect the show's first song
to be a live band performance
because of what I said earlier?
You all know, right?
It seems like most of you know something
During the first show,
when the VCR started before the opening,
everyone was like, "Wow!"
But for the second show, I noticed that when the video played
everyone just watched it like they’d already seen it before
Though of course, some people hadn’t seen it yet
Seeing that reaction
I started worrying, "What if the energy feels a bit lukewarm?"
But that’s not the case, right?
Those of you watching for the second time today
you can pretend it’s your first time, right?
Thank you
So today’s performance is
really about properly announcing my comeback
What’s the title of this performance again?
That’s right, "COMEONG"
Ong Seong-wu has returned "COMEONG"
The star of WELO
WELO's star is back
Shall we all shout out COMEONG?
Three two one COMEONG
Not just Ong Seong-wu, but a star
WELO's star Ong Seong-wu
Why does this feel so embarrassing?
I'm here
That's it
I prepared a lot of things that you might like
and prepared it to show you guys as much as I can
A true star should be able to do it well on his own
So I'll be also doing the hosting this time
There's one thing I need
It's on
It's been a while seeing this
I forgot to say this at the previous show
It's been such a long time since I've seen OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK
OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK, how have you been?
There wasn't much chance to lit it up, was there?
This little friend should lit up a bit
The light has been off for a while
OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK's lights are on after a long time now
It's good to see it be shaken
I think I didn't pay attention to the WELOs on the second floor
WELOs on the second floor, hello!
Hello WELOs on the second floor
Nice to meet you I'm Ong Seong-wu
Make some noise
Shall I sit down and continue?
I’ll take a sip of water
and let’s officially kick off our first segment
Let's see what we have prepared
after a sip of water
Please show us the prepared segment
Ong Seong Ong Seong Fact Check!
Yes it is
Ong Seong Ong Seong Fact Check
A star always have people's attention
It's so tiring
All these spotlights, attentions
So I heard that while I was away
many questions and stories about me
constantly came up
So here today, about all of them,
I'll be fact checking one by one
I did some of them in the previous concert
There's still a lot remaining
So, let’s check out what questions we have
for the second show
Please show us the first one
A burger shop owner has reported that there was a specific hamburger set
you loved during your military days
Could you share it with WELO?
Why was it always that burger set?
And what was the most delicious meal you had during your time in the military?
Ong Seong-wu, can you reveal it now?
Can you tell us now?
This feels like a "Come on, spill it"
"Are you finally going to talk?"
kind of determination
The burger set I enjoyed during military days...
How did you hear from the burger shop's owner?
That burger place is all the way in Cheorwon
How did this information get out?
But it wasn’t just me
That place was every soldier’s favorite spot when we got leave
There aren’t many places
where you can save time
while still enjoying a variety of food options, right?
So, when soldiers wanted to save time
and do a lot in one outgo
Well, I won’t go into too much detail
But they’d quickly grab a burger and go
And yeah, I had plenty of those moments too
My favorite burger combo was
shrimp burger combo
There's this menu called Whole Shrimp Burger
I don't remember the exact name
but the shrimp burger combo is delicious
For me, more than anything, when eating shrimp burger
you know that crispy, golden crunch from the friend shrimp
When that meets the soft bun
and you take a bite, there’s that satisfying crisp
on the outside and the juicy shrimp inside
That texture is what I love the most
That’s why I really love shrimp burgers
I always went for the shrimp burger set
And if I were to share more
I thought you might be curious.. Are you?
Other menu that I enjoyed eating while I was out..
Oh, this one has a bit of a bittersweet story
Well it's not that sad
There wasn’t originally a place like this
But then, out of nowhere, a Pyongyang cold noodle restaurant popped up
A Pyongyang cold noodle place in Cheolwon?
I love Pyongyang cold noodle
Whenever I visit a new region
I always make sure to find the best spot and try it
I love Pyeongyang cold noodle this much
"Wait, a Pyongyang cold noodle place just opened? Should I check it out?"
So I went to the place
and had the cold noodles, it was so delicious
I thought, "What's going on, it's so good"
So I brought all of my friends from the military band there
I think I went there every time I was on break
I went there to eat every time I went on break
I brought and bought them the noodle
But the place disappeared
I don't think they shut down, but I think they moved their location
I did hear that they were planning to move, but they suddenly disappeared
I was so sad that I couldn't eat the Pyeongyang cold noodle
"Oh no, what do I do?"
That was my reaction back then Anyway, that was just a little TMI
Is there a trendy food I tried
for the first time after getting discharged?
Hmm… is there even a new trending food?
What’s popular these days?
Mala tang? But that’s been popular for a while
Come on
I wasn’t gone for like five years
Mala tang.. yeah
YOAJUNG! Oh, right!
That one didn’t get popular until recently
It really blew up while I was in the military,
so I tried it for the first time when I was on leave
And yeah, it was delicious
It’s got so many ingredients, and you can add all kinds of toppings
to create your own perfect recipe
Topping recommendation?
I don't know it that well so
Personally
topping.. I like the cheese topping
The cube cheese, it was really delicious
That and the chocolate ones, if you have those together
If I’m going to eat ice cream
I eat as sweet and delicious as possible
It’s not like I’m eating zero-calorie ice cream
So I make it that delicious
Well, not made it, ordered it
Shall we move on?
Please give us the next one
Ong Seong-wu, did you know that
WELOs try to guess who you’ll be working with next
based on your Instagram follows?
Will you keep dropping hints through Instagram?
And… are we expecting some new follows soon?
Wow, depending on how I answer this, it feels like I’ll have a lot of pressure
I might have to start thinking
really carefully about who I follow
But to be honest,
I don’t put that much deep meaning into my follows
I think I naturally do it if I work with somebody
we talk about it, like, "Should we follow each other on Instagram?"
and do it if the subject comes up
But then to start following non celebrity friends
they might get too much attention all of a sudden
Maybe not too much attention
anyways, they might feel burdened
So, for that
others sometimes reject the request
But I guess I just naturally follow people while working
so it may have some meaning, but it may not
Since I have done it like that until now
since I didn't do it any other way
If I give too concrete of an answer
there might be a moment where I become close with someone
and we say hey let's hang out
and exchange instagram
but then people might guess that we are planning something
I think I might worry about that
I do know that your guesses are all
based on your interest towards me
I think you guys look and think, "Huh? his following number has increased"
"Who is it? Oh, a collaboration with this person?"
I feel like that is how you are are reacting
I hope you guys look forward to my future projects
If you film a new project, what role would you want to play?
A role for a new project
What role would you like to see me act?
An antagonist
Psycopath
A killer
A criminal
A spy
A monster?
A rich man~ oh I misheard you
What?
A strong man?
A prince
Prince well..
Historical fiction
Hearing it like this
I think there are so many roles I haven't been able to try yet
I guess it means that I still have a long way to go
There are still many things I want to show you
and many things I want to do and many things I have to do
I want to do everything
If I could choose one
I want to try being the bad guy
The role of the bad guy
I wish I could try it
I want to try various things
I want to experience various jobs
I have a lot of thoughts and greed
Please look forward to it
I'll try my best
Let's move on to the next report
Why is my mouth so twisted?
Show us the next one, please
On a snowy day in 2024!
I heard that Ong Seong-wu ran a marathon, is that true?
What made you decide to do it? Did you finish the race?
And… was it tough? We’re curious!
Did you know that?
Wait… did I get posted about running a marathon somewhere?
You didn't know at all?
How did this one know about that?
What? Who is it?
There's a spy
This was last year, in 2024, on a snowy day
I was walking down the barracks hallway
when I overheard some guys talking about something posted on the wall
So I asked, "What’s that? What are you looking at?"
And they said, "There’s this marathon event…"
"If you sign up, you get an outgo pass"
It's called muscle running
If you participate it, you could go outside, run,
and they'd give me a bit of extra time before returning
It was organized in collaboration with Cheolwon
and they invited soldiers to take part
They recommended the soldiers to participate
So there was something like that
I thought it was nice
When I was in the unit every weekend
it was frustrating no matter how much I rest
I wanted to go out and make good memories
It was snowing and the weather was so nice
Let's go, let's run
So I participated the muscle running
Technically,
it wasn’t a strict rule
but the original tradition of muscle running was to run shirtless
I couldn't do that since it was so cold and hard
So I wore a thin one and ran
How long was the total distance?
I don't remember it properly,
but I think it was about 7-8km
But I thought, "Well, I’m a soldier, so let’s give it a shot"
So I started running… and then ended up walking
It was really hard after a long time
So while walking
the scenery there was so nice
There were cliffs and valleys
While watching that, I was like, "Wow, that's nice"
As I was running
some people passing by actually recognized me
Because a lot of soldiers from nearby units
were also participating
the course was set up so that you’d run to a certain point and then turn back
So naturally, you’d cross paths
While I was walking
Then, the people who were already coming back to me said
"Ong Seong-wu, fighting!"
Those who has already done it once from far away
said, "Ong Seong-wu, fighting!"
After receiving that support
they kept giving me boosters
I had to run when I heard the cheers
If I just walk after saying fighting,
it looks like I didn't get the energy from the fans
When they said "fighting", I answered "fighting" and run a lot
Then, I couldn't see that person
so I started to walk again
Someone came from over there and said,
"Way to go, Ong Seong-wu!"
"Thank you, fighting!"
So at the end,
I remember finishing the race
thinking that I wanted to stop getting cheers
So it was a good memory I think today...
No, I haven't introduced yet
I remember the event like that
Let's move on to the next one
There's one thing I want to brag about
When I was at the training center, I got all the shots in the shooting training
They give me 20 shots I shot them all and got them all right
They gave me 20 shots and another 20 shots
But I got 19 shots for the second one
So I got everything right except for one out of 40 shots
And then I returned to my own unit and shot again
and it was disastrous I was really surprised
It feels a bit different? Hold on...
In the shooting that I did right before I was discharged,
I got another 18 shots
I want to say this
A content? A shooting content
I already exaggerated a lot to do that
I've got a problem
I'll consider it
After discharging
Let me get back on track… I totally lost my train of thought
Please give me the next tip-off
After your discharge, the news about your epic Spain trip
with actor Kim Do Wan was on fire
Are there any behind-the-scenes stories you haven’t shared yet?
And do you happen to have any other travel plans?
That’s right! After I was discharged, with actor Kim Do Wan
I went on an unforgettable trip to Spain
It was amazing like a dream
It was right after my discharge
and I had a few things I needed to take care of immediately
But as soon as I wrapped those up, I headed off on that trip to Spain
I don’t think I’ve ever had a full two weeks
to just travel freely and relax like that
So, during the trip, it truly felt like such a special time
And Kim Do Wan's
travel styles matched so well with me
We walked like 20,000 to 30,000 steps a day
We'd walk for hours
until our back thighs were practically worn out
Then we’d go, “Wait, I feel a bit off”
“Let’s sit for a moment,” and then he'd be like, “Sure”
Then we’d just plop down in a park somewhere
sit for an hour doing nothing
and when we felt ready
Thank you
we’d get back up and keep walking again
So every day, we just kept walking
By the end of the trip, we had walked 200,000 to 300,000 steps
or probably even more
So traveling with actor Kim Do Wan
was truly fantastic
Out of all the places I’ve traveled to, the one I’d recommend the most is…
Which place would that be?
Gapyeong?
Yeah, there's amazing
Gapyeong is really nice, too
But if we’re talking abroad, I’d say Paris
I think Paris was great
You probably don’t know this yet, but I actually went to Paris
t was connected to some work I was doing in Monza
so I made a quick stop in Paris
But even in that short time, I had such a great experience
I really felt like a Parisian
Starting my morning with coffee and bread, just soaking in the atmosphere
So yes, I’d definitely recommend Paris
And if there’s an item I absolutely bring on trips...
OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK?
Do I just carry OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK around on my travels?
The one thing I consistently try to bring
is my camera
Sometimes I really want to bring a camera on a trip
but other times, I just want to capture it with my own eyes
And then there are trips
where I feel I definitely need photos
so I take lots of them there
Still, for most trips, my camera is pretty much a must-have
Also, I recently bought a 360-degree camera
Actually, I got it during my trip to Spain
I’d been thinking
I kept thinking that if I had a camera that films in all directions
it would be so great
So I planned to buy it
telling myself I’d pick one up before going to Spain
but I ended up just going without it
Once I arrived, I thought, “Ah, I didn’t buy the 360 cam”
I started looking around like, "Do they sell it here?"
But it was hard to find
I wasn’t sure if there were any stores that carried it
So after a long search
I found out there was a place I could drive to
went there, bought the 360 camera, and used it
The reason I bought it
is because I have a VR device at home
I think it’s been about five years since I bought that VR device
Sometimes, I just
play shooting games on it
and it’s a lot of fun
I originally bought it for that
but I realized I could take videos
and, if shot with a 360-degree camera
convert them, then load them on the device
and watch them like that
I even debated bringing it today
but anyway, once it’s recorded
if I ever feel like traveling
or revisiting that memory, I can use it
because there’s really nothing like reliving that moment
You basically go right back to that exact moment
So I made the effort to buy it, recorded some stuff
then invited actor Kim Do Wan over
telling him, “Come to my place”
He came, and I said, “Try this on”
"Hey, there I am! I’m right next to you!"
“Oh, hey, it's you! Hi!” That’s how it went
So I was thinking about bringing it this time too
Since there wasn’t much I could actually do with it
I ended up leaving it behind
I think I’ll keep bringing my 360-degree camera with me from now on
That's my thought
Anyway I spoke too much
I just did a fact check like this
I'm trying to move on to the next segment
Is there anyone who has any final questions?
heard that Ong Seong-wu prepared a stage
with his favorite songs, is that true?
As expected, the rumor has spread again this time
Yes, if we fact-check
I included songs that I love, ones I sing often,
and songs I especially wanted to
share with WELO today
I've chose those songs today
So I practiced a lot while
hoping that WELO would like it
I hope you listen carefully
Shall I sing it right away?
If you know it, please sing along
Alright, cue the music
'Hold My Hand'
I just sang 'Hold My Hand' by IU
I really like this song
It's so famous and also really good, isn't it?
The reason I chose this song is because
when watching the concert video, it makes my heart race
Running around while saying to take my hand
and the message to so many fans is so nice
I think the resonance of that video is really strong
So, during my military service,
we were apart
but now we can meet again like this, hold hands together and go forward
Holding hands means we're going together, right?
I will go with you
So, I thought normally
you don't say bye and hold hands
So as a meaning of going together,
I thought it would be good to start with 'Hold My Hand' as the first song
Therefore I chose this song
Will you hold my hand?
Will you walk with me?
Thank you
Just one moment, sorry
In a way, this was a song I wanted to listen to
with WELO at the start of the new year
welcoming 2025 together,
hand in hand, moving forward side by side
These days, people seem to put special meaning into the first song they hear in the new year
As if it sets
the tone for the whole year
I didn’t really know about that at first
but I've suddenly got this question
"What was the first song you listened to this year?"
I have that memory
The song I listened on January 1st
I can't remember the exact title
but I think it was 'Take Me Home, Country Road'
I've been also listening to that song these days
and I enjoy listening that
Can I sing it?
Since I came back home after a long time,
I realized how much I love home
Home is so precious
and when I think about why,
I realized I really like things that are familiar and cozy
I like having my important things stay well with me,
and things that have been there for a long time
So when I go home
even when I'm alone, home feels so familiar to me
So I really like home
And you, WELO are also like that to me
You are unchanging, familiar and close, right?
The time we've been together is
longer than my home
Anyway, what am I saying?
So listening to that song
made me feel warm and comfort
What song did you listen to as your first song of the year?
'WE BELONG'?
Don't lie
What did you listen to?
'As You Wish'
'I'm the Best'
Maybe you listened to that to start the new year with the mindset of "I'm the best"
Is it to set the mindset of
“I’m not afraid of anything” for the year ahead?
That's cool
You listened to 'You Were Beautiful'
You listened to 'Heart Sign'?
Listening 'Heart Sign' in winter?
But that's a summer song
You listened to 'Little Light'
'Café'?
Relatively… No, not relatively, anyway
you listened to my songs a lot
Thank you
Oh right, we had our band playing when I was singing
Our band is here
I might have already spoiled this somewhere
I mentioned earlier that
I put this performance together with some truly special people
What kind of connection is this?
These are the military band members
who served with me
Thanks to these friends,
I was able to spend a long time
in the military very happily
And the memories of being together were really great,
and we performed a lot together
So, I had trust, I had faith
When I first joined the military band,
I saw their performance and thought,
"Why are they so good?"
"What's going on?"
"Why are they so good?"
It turned out they were incredibly talented
and had been working hard both in school
and in their careers
So, at the end, when we were about to discharge,
I wanted to perform at the fan meeting with a band set,
and I wanted to do it with them
We had already practiced and performed together a lot
Now that they have also finished their service
and are stepping back into civilian life
I thought it’d be great for all of us to have a strong, meaningful start together
So I reached out to join me on this stage
When I first reached out, was it through KakaoTalk
or did I call? I think I called
I picked up the phone and went, “Hey, what are you doing on this date?”
January 4th, originally
"What are you doing on January 4th?"
"I don’t have anything planned yet"
"Okay, join me for the fan meeting"
I hung up and called the next person, asking the same thing
"What are you doing on January 4th?"
"I don’t have anything planned"
"Okay, join me for the fan meeting"
One by one, I called them and created a group chat
to make it happen
Let me introduce each of them
First, on drums, we have Isaak Kang
This friend is really funny, a very amusing one
He's a very amusing friend
Thanks to this friend, I was able to endure
the final days of military life, laughing together
I’m really grateful to him
They say you're handsome
You think they're telling the truth?
We’re so close that
sometimes it feels like we’re still in the military
Anyway, since so many of you are booing
let’s move on
Next, on bass, we have Lee Dohoon
He’s a very quiet, calm, and deep friend
Just as you’d expect, he plays bass with a deep tone
His voice is also deep
Please say something
He's a friend with a bit of a great voice
He did well during the first round of the performance,
but in the second round, he can be a bit stiff
Of course, I get nervous too,
but he can't just stand still,
so he needs to feel the rhythm and enjoy it
It would be great if you could cheer him on so he can do that
And on the keyboard, we have Hong Yoonpyo
He was my squad leader in the dormitory
A squad leader
Thanks to him, I had such a fun time in the dorm
and he was very helpful and kind
So I like him a lot
He's also really good at playing the keyboard,
so that's why we're working together
He's cute, and he was a senior
They were both seniors
Not anymore, though
Our bandmaster and guitarist, Cheon Yoobin,
All the other friends worked hard too,
but he especially worked hard
He made all the sheet music, arranged the songs,
recorded, produced, tuned,
and did everything
He worked really hard and is very talented
He has so many talents,
so I hope you'll continue to support him
And on the guitar, we have Yoo Yechan
He looks calm, right?
He's a jazz guitar major
But he's always cross his legs
and plays jazz guitar for hours
Watching him, I thought, "Wow, that's amazing"
"He's working so hard"
And then I found out he's preparing to study abroad
to study guitar
Anyway, he's going to be a big deal
Please give him a round of applause
So, since our band came together,
we can do fun things
Are we doing this again?
But this was almost created
spontaneously as a band during the first round
We were practicing, and it seemed like it would be fun to do this
That's what we thought
I was a bit worried like,
"What if no one reacts?" "What if the vibe suddenly gets awkward?"
But thankfully, everyone seemed to enjoy it
So I decided to try it again for the second show
A short, special moment we can do because we have a band
I’ll show it to you now
Everyone, freeze!
How is it? Are you having fun?
Because we have a band
I was able to give you this very special performance
Let me drink some water I can’t do this twice
Technically, I shouldn’t do it two times in one day
So actually, after the first show ended earlier
the production team suggested moving that “freeze” bit to a later segment
because they were worried it might strain my voice
But I told them I wanted to introduce it just like I did in the first show
and keep the fun flowing right away
so we kept it as is
Let’s just hope my voice holds up
I’m also singing a lot
and there are quite a few songs this time
Since there’s a heavy focus on singing
I’ve been drinking more water than usual
Also, while I was serving in the military
there were a lot of songs I hoped
I could sing on stage someday
I sang a lot of songs during my military service
In the first show, I performed 'Fly' by Lee Seung-yeol
and among the other songs I performed
there’s 'Running on the sky'
That one is basically a staple track
a must for live shows
and you always hear it in karaoke
someone’s always singing it
Because of that
I performed 'Running on the sky', too
Should I sing a bit of it?
It’s pretty high, so I’ll just do the chorus briefly
Great
How was that?
Maybe I should’ve just added it to the set list?
Maybe at a future fan meeting
I’ll get to perform the full song for you
Anyway, I just sang a snippet of it
The next one is also one of those songs
It’s a song I sing the most at karaoke
my go-to track, you might say
I’ve played a short part of it for you before
maybe just one line
I wanted to do it properly today
so I decided to sing it here
It’s by senior artist Lee Juck
called 'I didn't know yet'
So let me sing for you now
'I didn't know yet'
[Reply 2009]
(Heart racing... 3 seconds until I meet Ong Seong-wu)
(Heading to Ong Seong-wu with a lot of excitement)
Oh, you're here
[Seong-wu waiting for Wiro (in his imagination)]
It's very cold, right?
Babe, let's go!
(Food court is still pretty quiet What should I eat?)
What do you want to eat?
Pasta?
Shall we eat pasta?
OK!
(Debating about Pasta vs. Omurice... Final decision: Omurice!)
Bon appetit
Before I eat
WELO first
Say "Ah"
How is it?
Is it good?
Why are you getting it all over your mouth?
(Staring)
Shall we eat?
(The weather's so nice that we came to Sky Park)
(Natural light + Ong Seong-wu = Perfect!)
Oh, good
(The weather is lucky because we're together!)
Shall we listen to music?
(Ta-da)
The song is nice, right?
It’s exactly what I want to say to you
You're like a picture
Do you want me to take a picture of you?
I'll update
your cyworld today
Stand right there
Say cheese!
(Passionate Ong-tographer for WELO)
Oh, my god
You look so good
(Someone interrupting his date with WELO at this time...?)
Hello?
I'm on a date with my girlfriend
Don't get in the way
Let go!
(Ong Seong-wu & WELO came to take control of the arcade)
((Self-proclaimed) Appearance of a pump master)
(Getting ready)
(So passionate that he even took off his outerwear!)
(Ong-maestro is leading the beat with his brilliant footwork)
(Expecting results as much as passionate)
(Taking out frustration on the poor drum (LOL))
(Ong Seong-wu (Age unknown) / Former football player) You used to be a football player, right?
(Ong Seong-wu (Age unknown) / Former football player) Do you want me to show it to you?
(Numbers don’t lie)
This is broken...
(A deep sigh escapes naturally…)
I think this is broken
(A chance to redeem that broken score)
If I make this, you have to grant me a wish
My wish is
to be with you forever, WELO
That was 'Welcome to the Show' by DAY6
The reason I chose this song is because
we are seeing each other after a long time
It's been a long time since we have had a fan meeting
How many years has it been? How many years?
3 years? It's only been that long?
It feels even longer
Anyways since we are seeing each other after a long time
we are going to make a lot of fun and precious memories
So I wanted to welcome you extravagantly
I wanted to do something like that
Are you guys tired already
You guys are a little different from before
We made a promise earlier
Anyways, that was what I wanted to do for the show
Also, DAY6's songs
are very bright
so I think they are suitable songs
great to sing at fan meeting concerts
So I imagined singing with you WELO
I imagined singing the "wooo~" part together
So I prepared the song with that in mind
You may not have noticed because you were singing along but
The speaker plays the singing of a crowd
There is a recorded version
The singing was recorded by
all of us
We all went into a recording booth
There was a place where we used to practice
We all went into the studio and
placed a mic in the middle
and all of us spread out toward the wall
like this, we spread out
and we said okay ready, go
and we recorded it all together
We recorded it while jumping around
We tried singing toward the wall and singing toward the ceiling
Do we have a video of the moment?
There is a behind the scene video of the recording
Could we share that please?
I think it would be fun to watch it
I will share it with you
It is probably going to be very funny
There is no song playing but
only we can hear the music because of our inear
From the perspective of the person taking the video
they can't hear anything but everyone is like
like this
Anyways, let's move on
Let's move on to the next corner
Next up is
ONGsting call segment
ONGsting call
While preparing for this concert
I felt like many people were waiting my comeback
Because of this, I heard that there were
many WELO directers who wished to cast me
WELO directors wishing to cast me
That is what I heard
but during the day concert
I saw that there were many casting inquiries that came in from different genres
So I first want to say thank you to the WELO directors
I am looking forward to it, it is an opportunity for me
It is an opportunity to show my worth to WELO
Then, to please my directors
I will show you some scenes that you guys have directly requested
Something to point out is that
there is a blank space in the lines of a scene
So I will guess the context of the scene
and recreate that scene
Earlier, there were many I had never seen before
so I was surprised but I will not be caught off guard this time
I will try recreating them with my own style
Then, please show us the first scene I will be recreating
The answer was "You want to break up? Who are you?"
Right?
I know this much
This was very popular
One time I was like, "What's this?"
I felt like that
But from many places, they were saying, "You want to break up? Who are you?"
I saw it so many times
Shall I try it?
In what vibe should I try it?
Cute?
Cold?
Should I try cold?
"You want to break up? Who are you?"
Who ARE you?
Who are you????
I'm sorry but who are you???
Anyway, I tried in cold vibe, do you like it?
It seems like you didn't
Should I try cute?
How do I make this cute?
Let me try
You wanna break up? Who are you?
Who are you?
What...
You guys are not reacting at all
I'm so embarrassed
You guys told me to try cute way, so I did it
I don't know, let's move on
OK, show me the next scene
"ga-la-gu-yo!" and "ga-la-gu-yo"
Do you guys know?
OK, seems like you know about it very well
Is this really that famous...?
Oh what is it?
Oh, it's "AH"!
Thanks to WELO directors, I got it
"AH" Go away! vs "AH" I'm just a baby~ (both pronounced "AH-ga-la-gu-yo" in Korean)
This is that one right?
the sentence give you different feelings
depending on where you put the space between the words,
it give you completely different atmosphere, is that right?
Then should I try saying it?
"Ah, Go away!", I should get a bit annoyed here?
Ah(Oh)! Go away! (Ah-ga-la-gu-yo)
I'm just a baby~ (Ah-ga-la-gu-yo)
There are several similar ones, right? I'll give it a try
"That was harsh" vs "You've been insensitive"~ (both pronounced "Neo-mu-sim-hae-jana" in Korean)
Should I try this?
That was harsh! (Neo-mu-sim-hae-jana)
You've been insensitive (Neo-mu-sim-hae-jana)
So this is the vibe, right?
Let me try another one
Hey! you take it (Yah-neo-na-ga-jeo)
Hey you! Take me (Yah-neo-na-ga-jeo)
Hey! You can take me (Yah-neo-na-ga-jeo)
And here's another one
You want it? I will give it to you (Ba-rae-da-jul-gae)
I will give you a ride (Ba-rae-da-jul-gae)
Anything else? There are more?
Here's the Mochi?
What's that?
You can't go this way (Mot-ji-na-ga-yo)
Here's the Mochi (Mot-ji-na-ga-yo)
Is this what it is?
Should I try just one more?
It kind of has that rich (chaebol) vibe, right?
Sashimi? I'll buy you (Hoe-sa-jul-gae)
I will give you the company (Hoe-sa-jul-gae)
You want it?
I'll give you the company (Hoe-sa-jul-gae), it's all yours
Fantagio.. well it's not my company, I do not own it
Anyways, we've looked into the memes that's in trend
Did you guys have fun?
Your face says it all
You all seem very satisfied
Okay, please show us what’s next
Fact check!
I know.. I know.. How can I not know about it.
Appearance check?
I know this meme, the 'Appearance check'
Who was the first one to do it? Was it Haewon?
Is this how you do the pose?
It should be "CHECK!" not just "check"
I heard that’s how they emphasize it
Appearance CHECK!
Please do not boo from the back
OK, we will move on now
It's challenge time
After completing my military service
I felt that I didn’t know much about the challenges
So this is challenge that's hot now.
What's that?
Oh my, does that exist?
What’s that again?
There are so many different challenges
So, I should adapt to time that is changing fast
and show you those challenges
I will show you challenges to WELOs
OK, please show me the first challenge
Ok, this was on news
and they made a song out of it
Even I know this much
A cat is walking across the frozen Han River
Let me try it
Was it this fast?
I looked like a squirrel?
Show me the next challenge!
This is hot, right? "Igloo"
The choreography is very chic and cool
with many key dance moves that make it look amazing
I have to try it, right?
I heard that you absolutely have to wear sunglasses for this challenge
Thank you for the sunglasses
Wearing sunglasses really brings out the right vibe
Shall we give it a try?
Wait a moment
One more time? Why?
Because you liked it so much?
With this kind of enthusiasm, I have no choice
but to do it again
How was it?
Do I look good in sunglasses?
Does it capture the "Igloo" vibe well?
Was it okay?
Anyway, I’ve done several challenges,
so shall we go for the last one?
Show me the final challenge
It’s easy! It’s simple!
Tiramisu cake, I know this one too
Let me show you right away
Should I wear sunglasses for this one? No?
Not enough? Should I do it one more time?
Asking for one more has become a habit for you.
A longer version? Is there a longer version?
They’re checking on it
So, you want the version where I turn around at the end, right?
Just like the previous video, you want it at that level
Got it
Let’s wait for the response
They say they’re ready
Are you satisfied?
Have you seen everything you wanted to see?
After doing this much, honestly,
shouldn’t you cast me?
Will you cast me?
But I feel a little unsatisfied
There’s still so much I want to show you
I’ve shown a lot of dancing, so...
Are you disappointed?
I was thinking of playing another song for you
This time, I’ve prepared an emotional performance
The lyrics are really impressive
so I hope you listen carefully and reflect on them
It’s a story I want to share with you all
Music, please
‘Forest’
Did you all enjoy it?
The lyrics are so good
The song I just sang is
'Forest' by Choi Yu Ree
I think the lyrics of this song can
resonate with many people
We were in a meeting discussing songs
with a meaningful message and a calm,
emotional tone
At that moment, our bandmaster, Cheon Yoobin, recommended this song
As soon as I heard it, I thought, "This is the one,"
and we decided to go with it
While practicing
I found the lyrics and message incredibly relatable and touching
I, too, am someone who looks at the forest
and strives to become one
However, the journey
toward the forest is not always easy
There are happy moments, but also sad ones,
and sometimes it gets tough
There are times when I waver,
but in those moments, the support and encouragement
from those who watch over me, like WELO standing on a hill just looking at me
help me regain my stability
The tremble that almost tears me apart
feels like it's calming down
It's because
people tend to focus on the negative
We often overlook the many good things and strengths,
brushing them off as nothing special
But when it comes to negative words, harsh comments,
or personal hardships,
we fixate on them
and let them consume us
I realized that
I am particularly vulnerable to this
That’s why
I made a conscious effort
to manage my mindset
Since I tend to dwell on
negative things
I decided to turn away
from them instead of picking up
and holding onto the arrows that fall before me
I put a lot of effort into maintaining my mental strength
But ultimately, the greatest help comes
from the encouragement of you, WELO
Their presence is immense,
and every time I hear WELO's words,
I feel reassured
Ong Seong-wu, you can do it
You’re capable, and you will overcome this
I'll cheer you on
It's like you're saying, "I'll cheer you on wherever you go"
Those things are always a great comfort to me
This is getting a bit longer
Thank you
As we live, tangible values
Intangible values rather than tangible values
Of course tangible values ​​are important too,
but intangible values ​​are also so precious
There are times when I feel like, "I can't do without this"
Just like you, WELO's heart
When I think back to my childhood,
my family wasn't that wealthy
In a way, the things that some people have
What I said the most was
"Why am I the only one who don't have this?"
I think I said that a lot
What all the kids were buying because it was trendy
What they have, I want that too
I said a lot of things like I wanted to have
and I felt wronged
But I was able to grow up happily
because my mom and dad had their prayers
and love for me
It suddenly became like a testimony
Rather than that feeling, anyway
Something invisible
has made me live until now
Happily forming a good family,
my mom and dad always worked very hard
to raise their children well,
and I think that's why I grew up happily
I'm talking for too long
I think that the relationship with WELO
has that kind of power, too
Intangible value
Love, strength, energy
Let's do it with that
The atmosphere is so gloomy
Let's raise it up a little
Anyway, we have to go with that kind of power and energy
Make some noise
All of a sudden
Make some noise
Only WELOs on the 2nd floor, make some noise!
Now, the first floor WELOs!!!
Perfect
Then there is
one thing I haven't shown you yet
There's one more thing
I practiced to show you
Pretending not to know
Flute?
Is it really the flute?
There's something I practiced
Another specialty
I'm not that good at it,
but I'm not that bad either
We were practicing among ourselves,
and we thought "If we try this, you'll like it"
That's why we practiced
My son?
Just one person
Ajaeng?
It's a Haegeum, not an Ajaeng
I've gotten good at this now
I did this a lot in the military
Everyone's used to it
If I go somewhere
and they ask me, "What can you do?" "I will try the Haegeum"
I've gotten to the point where I can come out right away
Actually, it's drums
The drums
I'm from a band
I was in a band, so I thought it would be nice
to practice drums and show you, so I prepared it
What do you think? Do you want me to play?
I see
The drum play
How was it?
The way I play drums
Do I look cool?
I kept practicing to show you
from time to time
I often said that I'd like to practice once again
That's how I showed it to you today
Meeting WELO like this,
makes me look forward to 2025 even more
If there's one thing I wish for this year as I start a new work,
This year
I hope to meet WELO again
And I hope that I can show WELO well
with a good piece of work
I think it would be nice to have
something that you can see this year
So I'm working hard right now,
please wait a little bit
Please look forward to it a lot
If I can say my goal for this year,
I think I always had the same thing
I thought something would change, but everything remained the same
Coming back,
I want to work hard, do well,
and take on various things together
Those have always been
my long-term goals
I hope you look forward
to the many days ahead of us
And to those watching online
why are you laughing?
To all the WELO members
around the world
Is "around the world" correct?
Anyway, I'm so happy that we could meet through this event,
even if only through video
I'll do my best to be around often
so that no one misses seeing me
And to the company staff,
the crew, our company
Fantagio,
and the backstage staff
who have taken care of everything and worked hard for today's fan meeting
thank you so much
I was anxious
While preparing for this performance, I kept feeling uneasy
I wanted to do well and show a lot,
but even during practice,
I kept wondering
how did it feel to be on stage again?
Like this
Meeting the fans like this,
I suddenly thought,
"How was it? I'm so nervous and anxious"
But thanks to the performance team,
the company staff, and all the WELOs who came today,
I had such a fun and happy time performing
Right?
Thank you
Shall we take one last group photo?
Band, please come up
I'll take the picture now
Are you ready?
WELO will always be on every new page of Ong Seong-wu’s journey
And I’ll always be with you
Three, two, one
Let’s take another one with me
Three, two, one
I love you
I love you too
That was our photo session
So this is how today ends
This moment is the hardest time to speak up
Is it still 6:30 PM?
We just started
Is that all it's been?
I have to sing, "Jjiniya"
What am I doing here?
Thank you so much for
watching the COMEONG today, everyone
We’ve been together, and with your support
I’ve gained strength
and been able to get through all this time
Now, I’ll repay you for that
Thank you again so much
Now, we have the final stages left
It’s so sad, but
What did you say?
It’s sad, right?
But we’ll meet again
We’ll meet again, right?
We’ll be together for the dinner show, right?
We promised
I saw some of you not saying yes
Anyway, let's meet again and have a good time
Moving forward, we’ll share good energy with each other
So, see you next time, okay?
Next time, I’ll come back with
more fun and various looks
I hope the final stages will be a gift for you
I’ll say goodbye here
This has been Ong Seong-wu
