The girl group Kep1er showcased their unexpected "comedy character" charm and fantastic teamwork through their first-ever entertainment-style original content, providing a unique laugh.
Kep1er (Kep1er·Choi Yujin, Xiaoting, Kim Chaehyun, Kim Dayeon, Hikaru, Huening Bahie, Seo Young-eun) unveiled their original content "Don't Be Dumb!" on their official YouTube channel on the 17th and 24th. "Don't Be Dumb!" shares the same title as a song from Kep1er's 7th mini album "BUBBLE GUM," released on the 19th through various online music sites, and was specially created for album promotion.
The content unfolded with the concept of "Dayeon & Hikaru's Counseling Room," where manager Kim Dayeon and staff Hikaru provided refreshing and satisfying solutions to customers (members) with concerns. Choi Yujin and Huening Bahie appeared as the first episode counseling customers, while Kim Chaehyun and Xiaoting appeared in the second episode, sharing their troubles and showcasing the closeness among members as well as individual chemistries that brought smiles. The members' excellent quick thinking and adaptability in delivering the skits comically clearly proved that they are characters optimized for the chaotic entertainment show.
The members' concerns were diverse and provided visual interest. Choi Yujin expressed, "It's hard to resist late-night snacks before the comeback," while Huening Bahie mentioned, "I feel uncomfortable with the teacher because a member laughs every time we make eye contact during lessons." Kim Chaehyun, who is worried because of Dayeon's obsession with short forms, and Xiaoting, who complained about sleep deprivation due to a busy schedule, all shared a variety of colorful concerns as the members approached their long-awaited comeback with quirky solutions, leading to hilarious back-and-forth banter from Dayeon and Hikaru.
The reactions of global K-pop fans who discovered the members' distinctive charms through this content have been explosive. Comments praising them in various languages flooded in, saying, "The skits are really well done," "It's like an otherworldly counseling room," "The content I've been waiting for! So fun and everyone is so cute," and "This is truly a cute counseling room," as fans looked forward to and supported Kep1er's diverse challenges and activities.
Meanwhile, Kep1er, who released their 7th mini album "BUBBLE GUM," successfully wrapped up music broadcast stages in their comeback week and plans to continue their comeback activities with a solo concert and concert tour starting in September.
