Tuning in on Naver V app’s Tuesday lineup was FT Island’s Jae-in who turned healer and counselor for a day.

Having recently returning to Korea from the band’s concert tour in Japan, Jae-in said he missed his fans and wanted to dedicate the episode to all of them from Korea and abroad.

“This is a counseling center from a guy who knows stuff,” said Jae-in, who previously received responses from fans seeking his advice on issues they were struggling with.

“I’ve spoken with a lot of the V app staff members and they said that fans seem to really enjoy these kind of counseling sessions and give a lot of feedback,” he added. “Even though I am not a professional counselor, I hope there will be a lot of participation so we can all enjoy our time together.”

He read off a number of fans’ concerns during the session, including a 25-year-old woman who stated that she has never been in a romantic relationship. The idol star said that from his point of view, many girls may seem hesitant to make the first move, but he doesn’t think that’s a turn-off at all.

“I think those kind of girls are very cool because they obviously have no problems expressing how they truly feel,” he says.

However, the idol star was so compelled by her story that he not only gave his opinion via the V app, but he called her on phone to encourage her not to give up on love.


Kim Dong-jun of ZE:A also tuned in for a solo V app broadcast giving fans a little insight into his new solo single, “Healing,” which dropped Tuesday.

“One of the reasons behind making my new song ‘Healing’ is because I received so much love from fans and I wanted to give something back,” said Kim.

“I wanted to say thank you, but it was hard for me to express my feelings just through words, so I decided to write a song for them,” he added.

Referring to his single as a “gift” to all his fans, the idol stared also went on to reveal that most of the lyrics from his new album were actually inspired by a collection of books sent to him by fans.


Also on yesterday’s V app lineup were the rookie idols of Imfact who gathered together to play a round of fun party games, as well as High.D and Eui-jin of Sonamoo, who dedicated their episode to learning personal facts about the group’s main vocalist High.D.
