GFriend on Tuesday grabbed first place on the music competition program “The Show” with their new song “Fingertip,” which is the main track of the group’s fourth mini album “The Awakening,” released March 6.In a van returning home from the SBS broadcasting station, GFriend aired a V live broadcast to thank fans for their support.“Our win is all thanks to you, Buddy,” said Sowon, referring to their fan club. “We have ‘Show! Champion’ and radio tomorrow, so we’re going to catch an early night’s sleep,” Sowon said.GFriend gave candy to fans who came to SBS on the day. “Although there were many Buddies today, we know that there are more (out there) ... please know that in our hearts we wanted to give candy to all Buddies,” said Eunha.Yerin stayed out of the camera’s view because she had cried when the group won first place. “It shows too much that I cried,” Yerin said, dodging out of the frame. “Thank you so much Buddies,” Yerin said, “We’re going to see you tomorrow, and tomorrow’s tomorrow, and the next day and the day after that.”During the broadcast, Shinbi called Umji, who was not in the van with the rest of the team, inviting her to say something to fans. Umji aired a separate V show later in the night.
ApinkApink’s Chorong and Eunji had ramen instead of candy Tuesday. Dressed casually, the two went to a ramen restaurant in Japan where they aired a mukbang -- or eating show -- featuring authentic Japanese noodles.
Chorong held the camera while Eunji cracked eggs and added seaweed and chopped spring onions to the soup. “Not a day goes by without me having an egg,” said Eunji, proclaiming herself a pro at cracking eggs. Chorong went for ramen that had a spiciness level of five, while Eunji chose level four. “I wanted to have this for so long but couldn’t because we had no time,” said Chorong. Apink is currently in Japan preparing to release its seventh single “Bye Bye” there on March 29.Oh My Girl
