'MZ wannabe iKON' IVE's Gaeul showcased a fresh chemistry.
On the 25th, Gaeul appeared on the YouTube channel 'John or Park.' On this day, Gaeul met with singer John Park to share various stories and interpreted the new song 'XOXZ.'
Before Gaeul's appearance, John Park mentioned that he would perform a rain-making ceremony and sang the title track 'XOXZ' from IVE's fourth mini album 'IVE Secret,' which was released on the 25th. Upon Gaeul's entrance, she began with a witty greeting, saying, "I heard a voice calling for me. But the power was a bit weak, so the other members couldn't come."
As the in-depth talk began, when John Park asked Gaeul if she knew him, she replied, "Of course. I've seen you cover songs a lot, and I like mysteries, so I also watched you on 'The Time Hotel,'" revealing her fan spirit and eliciting a response from John Park. When he asked if she had a favorite rapper, Gaeul replied, "I like 2NE1's CL sunbaenim, so I sang a lot during my trainee days," and showcased her strong vocal ability by singing a line from CL's 'Lifted.'
Gaeul, who enjoys 'eating alone,' mentioned, "I like eating alone in the department store food court. No one cares about you," revealing her cute charm as she introduced her favorite dining places, stating that the highest difficulty in eating alone is hot pot.
On that day, Gaeul and John Park interpreted the lyrics of IVE's new song 'XOXZ.' John Park speculated about the meaning of 'XOXZ,' saying, "It seems to mean 'I want you from the beginning to the end,' with 'XO' meaning kisses and hugs and the letter 'Z' being at the very end of the alphabet." In response, Gaeul revealed, "By using 'Z,' which expresses a sleeping state, it means 'I love you, good night. See you in my dreams,'" provoking interest.
Next, they checked the grammar. John Park read the English lyrics of the chorus of 'XOXZ' and confirmed that there were no grammatical errors. When Gaeul asked, "Could you review our next IVE song for free?" he readily agreed, responding, "But you have to credit me in the lyrics."
As the talk wrapped up, Gaeul shared her thoughts on the new release 'IVE Secret,' saying, "It's a concept in which good and evil coexist. In a way, I might seem like an angel or Cupid, but actually, I'm a devil," adding to the anticipation for future activities.
Meanwhile, IVE, to which Gaeul belongs, released their fourth mini album 'IVE Secret' and the title track 'XOXZ' on the 25th. They are expected to continue active promotions through various broadcasts and content, including music shows.
