Host – Hello everyone, we’ve been meeting for 5 episodes now.Group – Yep~
Jihae – Yes, how have you been?
Host – It feels like we’re meeting again a week ago but, because of your schedule in Japan, this is being recorded right after the 4th episode.Jihae – You’re wearing the same hat today ^^.
Yura – (Laughs)
Minah – He didn’t wash up. Smelly~
Yura – So smelly~
Host – So after a week, I guess I became a dirty person. For this 5th Episode. The title for the 5th episode is ‘Girl, becomes Girl’s Day’Group- Oh? Wah~
Host – Of course Daisy fans probably will know about this, the majority of them. But for everyone, how you girls became Girl’s Day. Honestly I don’t know. How did Daedo Elementary School Woo Ji Hae, how did eating porridge from next door Soojin’s house Minah, how did Ulsan’s Ahyoung-ee became Girl’s Day, let’s take some time to learn about it. First, Sojin/Hyeri is not here.
Minah – Yes, they’re not here for 2 weeks.
Jihae - Nope
Host – Sadly until the 5th episode, we’ll continue with us four.Minah – Don’t be disappointed~
Yura – We’ll be as entertaining. (hinting as entertaining as a full group.)
Jihae – Wow really?
Host – Oh Yura-ssi you’ll entertain us?Yura – Sure, LALALALA
[2:00]
Host – Later can you show us some impersonations?Yura – Sure.
Jihae – Show us right now.
Yura – You can’t see my face though.
Jihae – Do it now please.
Yura – What should I do?
Host – What about a voice impersonation?Yura – Voice impersonation? Crow, caw caw~
Group – (laughs)
Minah – Deedoodeeee*.
(*Famous bgm tone used when something doesn’t go the right way. I can’t find a youtube vid currently, but the most memorable usage I remember was when Kim Kyung Gyu/Kim Yong Man’s Lineup used the bgm for cutting out a celebrity’s entire segment out because it was boring, cruel yet funny since they were mostly comedians).
Yura – Frog! Ribbit Ribbit. Hahaha.
Jihae – That’s not a frog! Aren’t you doing a rabbit?
Yura – I know.
Host – If you do frog impersonation in English it sounds a bit like the word Rabbit, Wabbit wabbit.Minah – Yes.
Yura – Tokki! (rabbit) Wabbit Wabbit.
Host – Ah yes right now Ahyoung-ssi is in a maenboong* state.Minah – What’s Maenboong?
Yura/Jihae – MEN-TAL BOONG-GAE.
(Maen-boong [맨붕-short form] = mental boongwe (맨탈붕괴- full form – a internet trendy slang term that means ‘Mental Breakdown’)
Host – You didn’t know Maenboong?Minah – Yes. I guess I’m not part of the new generation.
Host – As a 30 year old, even I know this! A 20 year old Minah-ssi should know this.Yura – Ah Bangoo (gas) Bang Minah
Jihae – Bangoo-monger.
Minah – What is this T.T
Yura – Gas bboong bboong (sound – passing gas) Bang Minah
Minah – Bboong bbang! (more sounds, how cute)
Jihae – Right now Yura is in a mental breakdown state.
Host – Currently Jihae-ssi is 24* (Ee-Ship-Sa-Sal) years old yes.Group – (laughs)
(*The host is reading an uncommon way of pronouncing age – Read here
http://askakorean.blogspot.com/2010/03/korean-language-series-sino-korean.html )
Minah – Are you really 30* [Seuh-Reun-Sal)? (The commonly used way of reading age)
Yura – 30 (Sam-Ship-Sal) (Yura Being cute using it the uncommon way :3)
Host – 30, 30, 24, 24 year old Jihae-yang. When you debuted for Girl’s Day how old were you?Jihae – When I debuted my age was, 22 years old.
Host – You debuted at 22 (Ee-Ship-Ee-Sal – Host just being cheeky here)Yura – (undecipherable audio) – 220.
[Probably saying look at her as 220 years old.]
Host – So for Jihae-ssi, how did you debut…Jihae – Ah really I’m going crazy because of her.
Host – EVERYONE, This is Ahyoung-ssi.Jihae – She keeps saying stuff to me.
Minah – Recently Yura-unni, she’s in a really good mood.
Jihae – Are you dating someone?
Yura – No~
Minah – Really?!
Jihae – I don’t know.
Yura – Ah.
Host – Are we going into Yura’s dating life?Minah – Truth game, truth game?
Jihae – It’s truth game, turn off the lights.
Yura – Ah I’m in a relationship with Daisies.
Jihae – OH! Really turned the lights off.
Yura – I’m in a relationship with our Daisies~
Jihae – Really, all our Daisies, I love you~
Host – But in the end, she’s really dating a Dai5y.Group – OHHH.
Yura – I just got goose bumps.
Minah – This could happen!
Jihae – Why why, I’m in a relationship right now.

Minah – OH!
Yura – He’s amongst them.
Host – Oh that’s right.Jihae – He was surprised, it’s true.
Minah – Do you have 5 girlfriends?
Host – Sure, then it’s nice.Minah – Up to 6? I know you have a girlfriend.
Host – Ah yes I do, a girlfriend I want to marry.Group – Ohhh!
Minah – What are we playthings?
Host – Ah what is this?Yura – (burst of laughter)
Host – What are you talking about~Yura – I hope your girlfriend hears this ^_^.
Host – Ah… then it will become a big mess.Yura – Please listen, he says we are playthings.
Jihae – Can you tell us her name?
Host – I can’t reveal here.Group – Ahhh.
Jihae – Why?
Host – Later…Jihae – Is she a celebrity?
Minah – OH!
Host – Nonono, I’ll tell you when we’re around the 10th episode.Minah – Then it’s later revealed, it’s Sojin-unni. (NO)
Group – Laughs.
Yura – Our manager-unni.
Host – Ah Sojin-ssi, she’s a bit scary, and a bit rough speakingYura – He confessed!
Host – Honestly I’m scared of Sojin-ssi.Jihae – Ah for unni…
Yura – Then who do you like? Please reply right now.
Host – Replying right now? I like my mom.Group – …..
Yura – From us 5, who do you like the most?
Host – Ah that kind of thing, I like you all.Jihae – Even though there will still be a slight difference in your preference.
Host – Everyone, this episode is called ‘Girl becomes Girl’s Day’.Yura – Who do you like the most?
Jihae – All the Daisy fans would know this already.
Yura – MC Squid-ssi.
Host – I like Yura the most.Group – Ahh Wohh.
Yura – (squeal) Really really?
Minah – Let’s get out of here unni.
Jihae – This is boring.
Host – Ah please sit down!Yura – Reason why?
Host – The reason I’ll say next time.
Yura – Oh why~
Jihae – Why.
Host – Ah uh, because this 5th episode, we’re recording this episode right now! I didn’t know I would be attacked by this three person combo.Minah – Truthfully we need Sojin-unni to end things properly, it is not happening right now.
Jihae – We’re fun, very free talking.
Minah – I’m going to tell on Sojin-unni~ that MC Jju thinks Sojin-unni [6] is the scariest.
[6:00]
Host – Then I’m going to tell on my company director, Na-director. (I’m thinking board of directors)
Group – Oh?! Wow this is impressive.
Host – With director-nim, we’ve known each other for over 10 years, it’s been 12 now.Yura – Oh really?
Host – Spending our time like friends.Minah – Easy for you to find work as well then.
Host – No, he’s my teacher and friend, sometimes my father, really someone special to me. I also went with Soohyang-ee, I went with him, since where was a different showcase so momentarily, I went to organize it anyway Jihae-ssi.Jihae – Yes.
Host – 22 years old, Jihae-ssi, how did you get selected for Girl’s Day.Jihae – While walking on the street, an oppa I know told me to go take an audition.
Host – An oppa that you know.Jihae – Yes.
Host – How did you know him?Jihae – He was my dance instructor. From my dance instructor, he was a dance teacher for DreamT. Entertainment. So that teacher saw me while on the street and like, “Oh! What are you doing?” – “Who me? I’m having fun.” – “Ok, why don’t you take our audition.” So I went to take the audition.
Host – That is when you were 22 years old, how about months wise.Jihae – Exactly that would be when I was 21 years old.
Host – You saw your first audition at 21, and waiting a year until you debut.Jihae – Yes.
Host – I see. So who was the first member locked in to be a member?Jihae – It was Minah.
Host – Minah-ssi. For Minah-ssi, when, how old were you.Minah – For me, it’s a long story, originally I came to Seoul for a middle school winter vacation time. The first vocal school I went to, the owner of that is our current CEO.
Host – Lee Jong Seok CEO-nim.Minah – Yes so as he was making the company, he brought me over. Having known each other since 3rd year of middle school, I signed a contracted around the 1st year of high school.
[Korean school grades – 1-6 Elementary, 7-9 Middle, 10-12 High]
Host – When you were in 1st year of high school.[8:00]
Host – Minah-ssi’s debut was in 2nd year of high school yes?Minah – Yes.
Host – You signed a contract at that time, and prepared. And then in 3rd year.. Ah nono.Minah – Debuted at 2nd year of High school.
Host – After 3rd year, it’s been 2 years since you’ve been 3rd year of high school so. Ok good. What about Ulsan’s Ahyoung-ssi?Yura – Yes for me, I uploaded a picture of myself on the internet, from that one of our company people seeing that picture went to my homepage. I uploaded a video of myself dancing. The company person going into that page, that person contacted my hagwon* teacher.
[Hagwon - after school learning place beside public education]
Host – What kind of hagwon was it?Yura – The dance school I was going to.
Host – Ah a dance school.Yura – So they asked, “Where is this kid”. So they went all the way up to Ulsan to find me.
Host – The Dream-T organisers.Yura – Yep, but when they came I wasn’t there. At that time I was under a different company. So I was in a tough situation, it got solved well and I ended up at Dream-T.
Host – When they came how old were you?Yura – At that time I was 19.
Host – Ah 19, compared to the other members you entered the team a bit late yes. The other four members’ debut was…Minah – Three people.
Host – Ah the three member’s debut was?Yura – July 9th.
Jihae – In 2010.
Host – When you debuted at July 9th 2010 who were the members?Jihae – Sojin-unni, Minah, and me.
Host – Three people, and when did Yura-ssi join the group?Yura – It was November 5th. On My Birthsuday~ What year was it?
Jihae – 2010.
Yura – Hm was it November 4th?
Minah – It was the same year.
Host – Same year, Hyeri entered the group latest then?Jihae/Yura – Together.
Host – Together on the same day. So that’s when five members were set [*] in stone[*10:00]
Minah – Your research seems to be in vain.
Host – Nope, for me I’m in a real fan’s standpoint, asking with the thought of no knowledge, I already knew it all truthfully.Jihae – (laughs)
Yura – Ay~
Minah – (sniff sniff? Angry huff puff?)
Host – Am I caught?Yura – Your eyebrows are lying.
Host – My eyebrows reveal my destiny so much.Jihae – (Laugh covers up Yura audio)
Host – My eyebrows are my destiny…Yura – Your eyebrows keep slanting down like this.
Host – My mother made me this way.Jihae – I’m jealous, how does that part move like that?
Host – Like this?Jihae – Yes.
Yura – That’s gross.
Jihae – The middle part of mine can goup.
Yura – Mine moves well too.
Host – You say that’s gross?Minah – You look like a ______ (indecipherable phrase, but unimportant, can edit out)
Host – Yea my eyebrows are my destiny. Anyways.(scoffs)
Host – The part I was curious about is, please don’t concentrate so much on my eyebrows, in this situation of three members, when the two new members came in, was there some unfriendly attitude toward the new members?Jihae – Saying there were none would be…
Yura – Does that mean there was?
Jihae – In the beginning, we were shy of the new members, since we were girls the way we looked at the younger members that joined, it had to happen.
Minah – Anyway the members being switched… it was the first time for us, and it felt unfamiliar. The environment and the combination we had until now, starting over again was a burdensome but…
Host – Of course. When you were three, amongst the three you had a clear way to appeal yourself in the group, but as it became five members, it would be hard to get that spotlight.[rant - This guy is real baddie researcher, did he even read the Dai5y fancafe forums?!]
Minah – Hmm.. It seemed you missed the mark again.
Jihae – We didn’t have those kinds of thoughts.
Minah – Oh is that right..? I’m sorry~
Jihae – We didn’t have those kinds of thoughts at all, instead of three [*] members I thought that five was better, because when you combine the personality of the members it’s different compared to three and five.
[I do not understand these circles O.O]
[*12:00]
Host – When I see this group, all of your personalities are so different. Isn’t that so?Minah – Mhm.
Host – As I hear each of you talk, you all have different charms. For Jihae-ssi/Minah-ssi/Sojin-ssi were original members, for Ahyoung-ssi who entered the group later, how did you feel. The atmosphere, the first day you entered the practice room.Yura – When I first entered.
Host – Don’t be nervous, talk comfortably please.Yura – Uh-huhhuh.
Host – Jihae-noona, unni did she hit you?Yura – It’s not Noona*!
Host – Yes yes yes.Yura – Hyung.
[The word mistake infers Yura is a guy hehe, copied translation note from beginning of Eps 3]
[T/N – Here’s some knowledge of how girls and guys refer to each other.
Unni = girl -> older girl.
Oppa = girl -> older guy.
Noona (noonim – more respectful) = guy -> older girl.
Hyung (hyungnim - ^ same) = guy -> older guy.
Normal range of using this communication when on friendly terms is, around 1-10 years. Any older than it becomes ahjumma/ahgassi/ahjussi/samchon (mrs/ms/mr/uncle). It’s totally fine calling them the word for mother/father (uhmuhni/ahbuhnim, I prefer samchon), a more friendly approach to older people.]
Yura – Hm how was it when I first entered? At that time, probably were shooting for the program Bouquet, was it the first?
[Bouquet – 꽃다발 on MBC, Probably what got me interested in Girl’s Day before NLF sealed the deal for me, I made gifs for it too some time ago haha].
http://kimoleon.minus.com/mjCttO6FX/Jihae – Honestly I don’t remember.
Yura – At that time it seemed like something very sad happened. What was it… that time they did some chicken fight, that event happened, all the members were feeling a bit sad. So then me and Hyeri were there, they came in with really disappointed faces. I said Hi, and Jihae-unni’s facial expression wasn’t good, Minah and Sojin-unni’s faces were all uneasy as well. As another girl I thought, oh… they’re not feeling well hm? Right after Jihae-unni came into the dance studio and asked, “how old are you?”, we laid out some matts and started talking.
Jihae – While doing some stretching.
Yura – Yea doing some stretching and talking, first time talking with Sojin-unni was about lenses, what did I start talking with Minah… so while talking to each other.
[14:00]
Minah – So you’re just passing me by eh? YEAH YOU CAN JUST PASS ME BY.
Jihae – Please translate this!
[OK ^_^]
Host – So…Yura – Ah there’s no such thing.
Host – I’m studying the Ahyoung language.Yura – Why are you like this. Anyways…
Host – I’m Sorry.Minah – So that’s why you like her. Ok understood.
Host – Ok, for Jihae-ssi and Minah-ssi it must be different. For Jihae-ssi you are older than Hyeri or Ahyoung, wouldn’t have that burden but for Minah-ssi, someone older is entering the group. So I’m thinking there might’ve been some different emotions, right? How was it? When someone older comes into your group, leaving the order of power and whatever, there must’ve been a slight discomfort for you.Minah – Originally I was the maknae (youngest), another maknae came in.
Host – Because another older member came in. Even though there are good points of a maknae coming in.Minah – So, what was I going to say, for a time I was contemplating this for a while. I had debuted first, acting like a sunbae would be weird, and being on level terms would be weird too. I thought a long time about this, without much trouble we kept our relations to each other. No big problems.
Host – Were there any times you felt more comfortable when Hyeri joined.Minah – Of course there are. The first things noticeable came… when we ate, cleaning up afterwards. Hyeri did the organizing after meals.
[Minah talking very proper to someone younger than her ^_^, normally talk like that to older people, the reason Jihae is laughing]
Jihae – (hehehe)
Host – Because Hyeri is the youngestMinah – Since I was the youngest, our group does everything together usually, but when I was the youngest I had a larger share of that. Now Hyeri is doing it. From time to time seeing her, I think about my past times and we do it together, it’s still comfortable [* marker] because that pressure isn’t on me now.
[This Minah :33333]
[*16:00]
Host – After an unni and a younger maknae coming in. those points would’ve been much better. I also had another question, at first with your parents. Debuting through a girl group, probably not all of them had a positive attitude about this process, what about you Jihae-ssi? Was there any disapproval?Jihae – Our household is very straightforward; they want me to go through a proper path.
Host – Nono going down a proper path? Hehe.Jihae – Not meaning this isn’t the right path, their desire for me to go to a safer route was big. At that time I was still attending college.
Host – Yes at that time you were studying at SungKyunGwan College majoring dancing.Jihae – Mhm I was still in the middle of my studies, suddenly I told them that I would become a singer quitting school, my parents didn’t understand. But during my practice student days they saw how I did, they cried a lot seeing how hard I was working.
[Jihae talks about herself like a 3rd person hehe ^^]
Minah – Wait a minute~
Host – For Jihae-ssi, she probably wants to feel it, making a title for herself.Minah – Mama~
Jihae – I love myself ^^.
Host – From now we’ll call Jihae-ssi, to a proper title, Jihae-nim.Jihae-nim – Ahaha thank you ^^.
Minah – Jihae-nim have you partaken dining in nourishments?
Jihae-nim – Why yes I have.
Host – Have eaten you meal? (Jinji – another word for meal)Minah – Yes your meal aigo~
Host – If that’s so, Yura-ssi it must’ve been different for you as well, your hometown being Ulsan, coming up to Seoul and debuting like this. How were your parent’s reactions?Yura – OH OH EUGH!
Host – Right now her nails fell off.Yura – No! My ribbon~
Group – gibberish
Yura – I got startled because of your sudden question.
Jihae – If we stay here a bit longer I think we’re going to develop a sickness.
[18:00]
Minah – Ok let’s rest.
Host – Aigo, turned off the lights again.Yura – For me, mother, when I told her I’ll do it, she was like “you won’t make it” (heavy regional slang [satoori], probably what it means) So I said to her, that I will definitely become a singer. 100% guarantee that I will become one. I told her, “If I become a singer, I’m not going to give mom a signature!”
Minah – So cute.
Yura – Saying “I won’t give mom a sign!”, then she replied “Then do it~”, so I said before I enter college that I will definitely become one, guarantee that I will. Then she replied, “Get as far as you can then”. So I stopped the art I was doing, her thoughts were like “Meh can she even do it”, but then I made it. So with my mom, after seeing the chance actually appearing before us she said “Oh there’s a chance you could become one”. After really becoming one, she said “That’s wonderful~”
Host – Did you give her a signature yet?Yura – That’s not it.
Host – Normally moms don’t need a signature from their children. Your mom must have been amused, “Mom I’m not giving you my sign!” - “Why would I get your signature?” Now for Minah-ssi’s case, when you prepared the earliest your age was 3rd year of middle school? 1st year of high school?Minah – Yes its 1st year of high school.
Host – You met Lee Jong Suk CEO 3rd year of middle school, signed a contract in 1st year of high school, and how were your parent’s reactions for signing the contract?Minah – My parents didn’t know anything about this kind of lifestyle, I didn’t know either. If there was anyone inside the family that knows how broadcasting works we could’ve asked but, there were none. Hey, could you concentrate please.
[20:00]
Yura – Beriboon
(More Yura language, time to give this a label – Yurean :> Yurabic sounds good too.)
Minah – So after that… Ahhh my train of thought is lost. Ah sh**.
(T.T Nooo potty mouth :<)
Yura – This live cursing!
Minah – Ahahaha, I’m sorry!
Yura – (laughs)
Host – It’s an exclamation everyone.Minah – WOW! Surprise~!
Host – It’s similar to Oh my god.Minah – Oh my god~ s***
Yura – (more laughs).
Host – Please continue.Minah – How far did I go?
Yura – (dying of laughter)
Minah – At that time signing a contract, it’s very hard signing a contract like that. HEY! *scream*
Yura – What!
Minah – Ahhh.
Host – Please continue.Yura – I can’t even laugh?
Host – Now this is what you call a mental breakdown.Minah – Ah! I totally understand now. Maen-boong, OK.
Host – If I could organize your thoughts, after your family contemplated without any real knowledge about this industry, did you want to say during the process they started to support you?Minah – Nope.
Host – So that’s not it?Minah – Incorrect. Signing a contract is not easy. If you look at it another way it’s a scary thing, I think I was fearless at that time. Without any knowledge I just signed it. Also… my parents never really disapproved of this. Saying like, “Do your best, if you’re happy then it’s fine”. They are the supporting type, and still like that today.
[These parents lovable like Minah :3]
Host – These kinds of things become big source of strength. A moment ago while recording I got a message on the galaxy note that you guys have to leave at 8 o clock, it is time to wrap up. It’s a sudden ending, what I felt was at your showcase[*][22:00]
Host - All your parents were there, holding hands together and ending the showcase and seeing that picture I almost cried. When I first started in theatre, when my parents came to see my first performance in my 1st year of high school, those kinds of memories coming up, for you all it’s not easy being a girl group. As I see it, for Dai5y fans might see you filled with star quality might seem happy all the time, but most people don’t see your worries on the inside. Also from Soohyang-ee I heard from her many stories about Minah-ssi.Minah – Oh really?
Host – That you cried a lot.Yura – Who?
Host – Soohyang-ee is an acting junior that taught Minah acting.Jihae – Teacher?
Minah – Ah.
Host – I heard a lot about that, so it made me see you all in a different light. I’m here as the MC but, looking as your senior in the world of entertainment, it must be tough for you. Everyone don’t lose your first intentions when you became a singer, whenever you’re struggling or tired I hope you can take the chance to talk to each other, talk any issues you’ve had with a member, I hope you all continue fighting. Wherever, Everyday II Oh My God, I’ll cheer for you in my mind. The atmosphere became so solemn.Jihae – I became sad.
Yura – So depressing.
Host – Now everyone, do good with your radio recording, in tough times release that buildup here, I know what you guys are going through, it became solemn again now the ending statement, please a word to the fans.Jihae – Right now we have a schedule to go to, we have to leave. I’m sorry if this was too sudden of [*] an ending.
[*24:00]
Jihae – In the next recording, we’ll do our best.
Minah – Ay unni, we did our best today too.
Jihae – We did our best but since we didn’t have all five members, it must be a bit disappointing. Hopefully you all will continue listening.
Minah – Hahaha~
Host – Next recording, we’ll find you all with something special.Group – Oh Oh~
Host – No spoiling please, it’s really special.Yura – Also, to all of our supporting fans we’re always thankful. Thanks for continuously watching us, I love you~
Group - *smooch*
Host – Yes this will be the end. Girl’s Day Truth Game will continue after their return from Japan, will find you here again!Minah – Everyone.
Group – Goodbye~
Yura – Dai5y I love you~
