『Hello, everyone! This is Spark’s Iwol. As announced on our official social media, today I’ll be taking the time to answer questions sent in by Sparklers.』

『I’ll do my best to answer diligently so I can be a good mealtime companion. Let’s get started!』

『First question. You asked if I keep the members’ ID photos or photocards in my wallet.』

『During filming, I often entrust my belongings to the managers, and the chances of losing things in the waiting room are high, so I don’t keep them in my wallet. Cheonghyeon and Giyeon gave me one photo each when they got their pictures taken for their national ID cards, so I have those stored in my drawer!』

『You also asked if my contact names for the members are still the same.』

『They are all the same, except Juu’s has been changed from ‘19-Year-Vintage Metal Marble’ to ‘20-Year-Vintage Metal Marble.’ I’m thinking of supporting the ‘Juu is an elf’ theory, so I don’t have to change it every year.』

『If we go on tour, which member would you want to share a room with and why?』

『Juu is the only member I haven’t shared a room with just the two of us, so if we get double rooms, I’d like to room with him. I’ve shared a room with Jeho and Cheonghyeon when we went on vacation together, and I’ve been in a tiny room at a comic café with Giyeon!』

『Iwol’s favorite member....... I’ll pick by category for this one!』

『For vibes, it’s Cheonghyeon; for personality, Seongbin; for voice, Juu; for acting, Jeho; and for cuteness, Giyeon. Giyeon is weirdly cute at random times. All of our members will agree with me.』

『Which is better: watching 1 hour of the members’ aegyo videos vs. watching 1 hour of the members’ NG (blooper) videos?』

『NGs fall under work-related mistakes, but aegyo is an act of professionalism, right? I’ll choose watching the aegyo videos.』

『There are a few more similar balance game questions, so I’ll group them. First: roughly washing a weak, exhausted Choi Jeho vs. Choi Jeho roughly washing me....』

『If I have to choose one, I’ll be the one doing the washing. But I might nag him about what he was doing to get so exhausted that he doesn’t even have the strength to wash himself.

But do I have to wash him roughly...? The bath towels in our dorm are very soft! I’ll wash him gently so his skin doesn’t get scratched.』

『Members not wearing sunscreen vs. members walking around in outfits that even fans wonder, ‘what is that?’.』

『I’ll go with the former. Because you can take off clothes, but you can’t take off skin.......』

『‘5 Choi Jehos vs. 5-year-old Choi Jeho’ and ‘5 Lee Cheonghyeons vs. 5-year-old Lee Cheonghyeon.’ Is this a similar type of question?』

『The comparison groups are different, but I would choose 5 members, no matter which member or what the situation is. I’d make one do a photoshoot, one do a fan meeting, one record, one do reverse support for fans, and one do a signing event.』

『You asked which Cheonghyeon I like best among Black-haired Cheonghyeon, Blonde Cheonghyeon, Serenity Cheonghyeon, and Rose Quartz Cheonghyeon.』

『That’s a tough one....... My personal preference is Black-haired Cheonghyeon. You can’t beat the original, you know?』

『There was also ‘sleep vs. not sleep.’ Is ‘sleeping for 3 days straight vs. not sleeping a wink for 3 days’ a similar question?』

『I’ve gone without sleep for 3 days, but I’ve never slept for 3 days straight, so I’ll choose what I’m more confident in: ‘not sleeping’!』

『‘Calling the members ‘jagi’ (honey/darling)’ vs. ‘going to bed on time (je-si-gan-e ja-gi)’...? To the questioner, I don’t know if it’s okay for me to say this on our first meeting, but your rhyme is amazing...!』

『In terms of difficulty, calling the members honey is easier, but I don’t think they’d be too pleased about it, so I’ll go to bed on time.』

『‘Me washing Cheonghyeon from head to toe’ vs. ‘Jeho washing me from head to toe.’ ......Um, do we look dirty by any chance? Another question about showering.......』

『Same as my previous answer, I’ll choose to be the one doing the washing! And we... we do wash well. Really.』

『‘Happy memories vs. a happy 7.1 billion won’...... ‘I’ll make happy memories with the happy 7.1 billion won. Won’t you make them with me? I’ve prepared the marriage registration documents, just bring your seal’...?』

『Then I’d only be receiving. Please think slowly about what you’d like to receive from me too, and I’ll meet you in front of the district office soon.』

『The last balance game question. ‘Showing your abs while dancing on stage’ vs. ‘Wearing shorts on stage.’!』

『It would be best to choose something I’ve never shown you before, right? I’ll do ‘showing abs while dancing on stage.’』

『I’m curious about what led you to start playing basketball with Jeho late at night! When you two play together, who wins more?』

『There’s an outdoor basketball court near our dorm. We were passing by it when Jeho asked if I knew how to play, so we go out together sometimes. Jeho likes basketball.

Since we go at night, we can’t play for long, about 2 hours at the most! If we play a best-of-three, I win twice. Recently, if it’s not too late, Giyeon joins us as well.』

『Do you subscribe to the members’ Bubble Pop?』

『I believe Bubble Pop is a space for each member and the fans to communicate, so I don’t look at it! Instead, I get a general sense of the atmosphere on each member’s Bubble Pop through the news you all share... haha.』

『A question about my left ring finger size has come in. It says it’s an unavoidable question.......』

『After giving me happy memories with a happy 7.1 billion, now a ring too? I feel like I should be the one getting the ring! In any case, my ring size is 20.』

『Eyesight, eye size, dark circle length, clothes size...... one moment, can I measure all of this right now?』

『My eyesight is 1.8 in both eyes, and I wear between a size 100 and 105 for clothes. I’ll measure my eye size and dark circles with a measuring tape and post it on Bubble Pop!』

『You asked, ‘Iwol, give us your lip product info.’』

『The one I use most frequently these days is ‘My Daily Life, Daily 01’ from Indenia. Among color lip balms, it has the lightest tint, and many of you liked it when I wore it, so I settled on it. Today I used something else because I went to the salon... is it okay?』

『Someone asked what small animal I think I resemble. They also asked if I think I resemble a dog or a cat more.』

『I’ve been told a few times that I look like a tired eagle....... but since that’s not a small animal and you asked my opinion, let me think....... Hmm...... um, there’s a snake called a Black Kingsnake. It’s black and has a tiny face....... What? They can grow up to 2 meters?』

『How do you style your hair at the dorm? I’ll also answer the question asking whether I prefer my hair up or down!』

『Rather than styling it, I have a habit of sweeping my bangs up when I’m looking at a monitor, so by the time I get back to the dorm, my hair is usually half-up. I stay like that until I wash my hair and go to bed. I think having my forehead exposed looks neat, so I try to show that look as much as possible.』

『Next is a question about when I realized I had perfect pitch.』

『I found out during vocal training! They praised me for hitting the notes well, and I remember the A&R team telling me I had perfect pitch during a recording.』

『Honestly, you know you’re handsome, don’t you? Do you know that you have a face worth 850,000 won per unit area.......』

『Even if I did know I was handsome, I think that opinion would change after seeing our members. Up close, the members are truly...unbelievable. I wish I could show them to you Sparklers from right beside me.』

『There are also questions about what hair color I want to try, if I have any plans to grow my hair long, and how I manage my hair quality after bleaching.』

『I take my nutrients well and use treatment diligently. If I dye my hair again, since my birthstone is pink opal, I think pink would be nice! If the fans want to see it, I’ll try growing my hair long, too.』

『There’s a question asking for my skincare routine, and this will probably be the same for all our members.』

『Assuming all makeup is removed, I apply products in this order: toner, essence, lotion, moisturizing cream, and nourishing cream. I add eye cream in between, and Juu doesn’t use cream because he can’t sleep if his face feels stuffy.』

『There are a lot of questions like, ‘There’s a lot of talk about you not sleeping much, about how many hours do you sleep?’ Who spread this story? Was it Cheonghyeon?』

『I don’t check every time, so I’m not sure, but I try to sleep for at least 3 hours a day! If I go two consecutive days with less than 3 hours, my condition gets worse. I hope everyone watching this live gets a good night’s sleep. They say sleep is the best medicine!』

『Next question! What’s your 50-meter dash time?』

『Early 8-second range. I’m a bit weak at short distances.』

『There’s a question asking if I have any moles on my face or neck, and I can’t see any, so I got help from my stylist for this one question.』

『They said I have a small mole on the back of my right thigh. They also said it’s hard to see unless you’re looking up close.』

『Iwol, show us your abs?』

『One moment. ......Is this getting caught on camera?』

『A question has come in asking me to describe my face as if it were Cheonghyeon’s face, and to do a killer job of it.』

『This...... this description thing has to come from the heart. Hmm...... Kim Iwol’s skin is clean? Trouble-free chalky skin?』

『Do you have plans to act in a drama or movie again! If the opportunity arises, what kind of project would you like to do? They also asked if you’d be willing to be a radio DJ if you got an offer.』

『I’ll do anything you ask me to. I’m not picky. If I had to state a direction for acting, I’d like to play a role that doesn’t stray too far from the image Spark is pursuing.』

『A lot of questions came in about my favorite and least favorite foods. And also whether I can handle greasy or spicy food, and what kind of snacks I like. They asked me to talk about it excluding jjolmyeon....... Have I talked about jjolmyeon that much? How embarrassing.』

『I like omurice. I prefer it with demi-glace sauce rather than a strong ketchup flavor! I prefer plain food, but it’s not that I can’t eat greasy things. I enjoy spicy food if it’s at a moderate level. Not often, but I sometimes eat vitamin jellies as a snack. I don’t have any particular foods I dislike, but I avoid drinks with caffeine because I can’t have them.』

『The most difficult or happiest event since your debut!』

『Choreography practice...... It’s been difficult from before debut until after debut. It’s the most difficult. Every day is a series of trials and tribulations. But I’ve been receiving a lot of compliments lately!

The happiest moment was when I read all the complimentary comments left by fans for the first time. I think it was during the ‘IDC’ era, and I still can’t forget how I felt then. Someone also asked about an event that will likely remain in my memory for life, and similarly, I think this event will stay with me. It was also at this time that I thought, I’m so glad I became an idol.』

『There’s a question about what makes my passion burn the brightest.』

『Anything related to Spark is enjoyable! But what I pour the most energy into is, of course, album production. Because it’s the foundation of the group.』

『Speaking of which, there’s a question asking if there was a most memorable moment while planning an album, so I’ll answer that as well.』

『When planning concepts, I’m usually cooped up in a room or a meeting room and only come out briefly to go to practice. Because of that, my sleep schedule got messed up once and I completely mistook the day of the week. I once woke Cheonghyeon up on a Saturday asking if he wasn’t going to school and earned his resentment.......』

『There’s also a question about how I come up with inspiration, and I can answer this one for sure.』

『When the deadline hits...! A revelation descends from the heavens!』

『If you were to go abroad for travel or a concert, where would you most want to go?』

『I’ve never been abroad before. So I think anywhere would be fun! If I had to choose, a place with a good view of the sea would be nice. Like Santorini in Greece.』

『You also asked for my study tips.......』

『I’m not the type to be good with tricks. I remember just trying to cram everything into my head. I don’t think it’s a very effective study method, I’m sorry.』

『The question asking what my rank was in the entire school is based on my grades, right?』

『My best was 14th place. It seems the number 14 and I have a deep connection.』

『Next is the question, ‘If you took the CSAT again, what major would you choose?’』

『If I were to go to college, it would be best to choose a major related to my current work, right? Since I could apply it in my profession!』

『You also asked what Iwol wants to learn.』

『I feel a little embarrassed after just saying something I can apply in my profession, but until recently, I was looking into getting a heavy equipment license. Whenever I see our stage sets being built or go to and from the studio, I feel that a person needs to have a technical skill.』

『Among the many nicknames like ‘Gentleman Hooligan,’ ‘Fortune-telling Octopus,’ etc., which one is your favorite?』

『I like ‘Underworld Cool Tone’ the best. Because the fans ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ gave it to me. But I look lively today, right?』

『A concept you want to try or a concept you want to make the members try! This is a good question!』

『I want to show you an extreme visual show. Something like a phantom thief jeweler who possesses the world’s greatest gems. As you all know, Seongbin’s birthstone is Angel Skin Coral, right? In a materialistic world, he would cherish and love the gems with pure affection, unchangingly....... (speaking at 3x speed)』

『Next question is ‘I’m curious about Iwol’s favorite Iwol fancam!’. A similar question was which of my selfies is my favorite.』

『My favorite fancam is this promotion’s 『End』 fancam. Because it’s the fancam where my dancing has improved the most. You can think of my favorite fancam as always being the most recent version. My favorite selfie is the 『With List』 photocard where I winked. It was my first time winking... I think it was full of a challenging spirit.』

『Among the roles you’ve played in music videos, which one is your favorite?』

『I liked the fairy role in 『Winter Night』. While filming, I kept wondering, ‘How on earth is this going to look on screen?’ I was so surprised because the result was incredibly cool.』

『Next is a question asking for the most memorable lyrics from the songs released so far and the reason.』

『My part in 『The Third Letter』. I’m not good at writing lyrics so I’m embarrassed, but I wrote it with sincerity. I think all the members, including myself, would give the same answer to this question.』

『There’s also a question about which of our stage outfits so far was my favorite.』

『It seems a lot of you are curious about what I like. I should have talked more about it usually. I like the 『MISSION』 outfits. I liked how they looked like ordinary office worker clothes but had a unique touch with small details.』

『The next question is about how far I’ve read in 『Kingdom Cafeteria ~Another~』 and to tell you my favorite character.』

『I’ve finished Part 1! So far, Blanche was my favorite. I saw a little spoiler for Part 2, and they said Blanche’s screen time increases, so I’m looking forward to it.』

『It seems someone is curious about whether I sleep on my back or on my side.』

『I lie down straight, but when I open my eyes, I’m facing the side. I think my body turns a little bit in my sleep.』

『If you could go back to 3 years ago?』

『Then I would be nineteen...... and if I went back, I’d have to study again. So even if I had the choice, I don’t think I’d go back. I like the present!』

『I’ve been answering so diligently like this. But did you know, everyone?』

『We’re not even halfway through yet...! We still have a long way to go! No one’s tired, right?!』

『You’re full of energy because it’s a fiery Saturday night?』

『Then please run with me until the very end. I’m in your hands!』
