PART1: Tell us how the members are, honestly!
-               This is Nana’s second time here, first of all, can you introduce each of the members?
Nana: “Jung Ah comes off as a cold looking person, however out of all the members, she is the most like a mother figure. She’s a very warm person, and when the members have worries, she is the first person to go to. Based on her motherliness, I really think of her as my real sister.”
-          I see, so it’s like that!
Nana: “Also, her husky voice is amazing. She is AFTER SCHOOL’s fashion leader.”
Jung ah: (In Japanese) “Yatta!” (Yay!)
All: Ahahaha (laugh).
Nana: “Raina has a very powerful voice. She is After School’s main vocal. She’s the owner of a powerful, and strong singing voice. She is Orange Caramel’s leader as well. Her character is…”
Raina: (In Japanese) “Her character is a split personality (laugh)!”
Nana: “That’s right (laugh). She possesses a dual personality. She has a calm face but also a cute face.”
Raina: (In Japanese) “My nickname is ‘Singing Takoyaki’!”
Everyone: Ahahaha (laugh).
-          Takoyaki?! (laugh).
Raina: (Showing us how her cheeks are like Takoyaki) “Takoyaki  ♪~”
-          Ahahaha (laugh). Cute! Do the other members have nicknames?
Raina: (Points to Jung ah) “Mother!”
Jung ah: ”Yes! I’m the mother.”
Nana: ”Sexy beam!”
E-Young: ”My skin is white and soft, and for that reason, cotton candy! ♪~”
Raina: ”That is, number one, so cute!”
Everyone: Ahahaha (laugh).
-          That’s great! Everyone told us their nickname in Japanese! Everyone is really good at it!
Nana: ”E-Young recently joined as the “new student” and out of all the members, she is the youngest. She’s really skillful at playing musical instruments. Guitar and bells, right?”
E-Young: ”Yes. I can play electric guitar, bass drum, and also the piano.”
-          You can play a lot. What is the first instrument you’ve played for the longest time?
E-Young: ”Cello and the flute. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been playing them. Recently, I’ve been playing the piano and the guitar a lot.”
-          Then, from the 3 of you, from looking at Nana, what kind of person is she?
Raina: ”She is younger than me but, when it is time to work she is a very reliable person. I believe.”
Jung ah: ”That’s right.”
Raina: “Nana looks like a cold person but personally, she’s actually really warm, honest and someone with charm, I believe.”
E-Young: “That’s right. She’s really honest, and a person with charm. Also, she naturally works hard as a singer and a model. I went to a fashion show with her in it, from glancing at the people, I felt that she captured their hearts with her charm.”(?)
Raina: “When it’s time to get on stage, more than others, she is the most appealing; especially recently she has been really good at using her eyes (expressions) I believe.”
-          Sexy Beam, right!
Everyone: Ahaha (laugh).
Raina: ”Nana is sexy with make – up on but, (In Japanese) without make-up, she is Baby-chan!”
Everyone: Ahahahahahaha (laugh).
Raina: ”She’s really cute!”
