*grins, waving to the panning camera as it closes in on her position on the secondary stage at the start of the show*
Simply youuuu, Simply Kpop! It's Sunday again, so you know what that means: another hour packed with stellar performances and fun VCRs!
I'm your host, Aurora's cutie-y MiSo~
*accompanies the nickname with a flower pose that flows into an s-line gesture before ending on a solo finger gun and wink*
And welcome to Simply Kpop. We are SO much fun together today!
But first, Simply Kpop isn't /just/ a music show. It's a bridge that joins the world and brings Korean culture to international K-pop fans! So, today our theme is...
*does an air drumroll, accompanied by a sound bite before splaying both hands in a 'ta-da' gesture*
Spring Festivals!!
First, we have the Maehwa Plum Blossom Festival~ Everybody knows about the Cherry Blossoms that are in full swing by April, but did you know that plum blossoms are the first sign of spring for us Koreans? This year, you can celebrate them from the 6th the 15th in Gwanyang while enjoying special plum ice cream and other fun treats!
Then, there's the Jeju Fire Festival from the 9th to the 12th. Huge bonfires called daljip are lit to bring good fortune, protection from evil, and a bountiful harvest! Ahh, I've never been personally, but it's so cool~
*releases a little sigh as if trying to contain a ramble on this very scripted segment*
Before we get too deep into these special celebrations, let's help welcome some bright and sunny performers, shall we? Put your hands together for performances by mimiirose, Ashatree, Song Haneul, and ShaFLA!

--

*standing in front of a segment of the crowd, she's equipped with her little social media tablet by the end of the last stage—mic-holding hand waving around in a little dance tribute for the last performance. laughing, she gets back into host mode*
It's time for shout out corne, you guys! Let's get right into it so we can cheer on today's performers. Let's see who's first...
*trails off while scrolling through the #SimplyShoutouts feed before stopping at one that jumps out*
Okay, @yuzuworldstar says "I love Simply Kpop because they don't just have the same groups other shows do. My playlist gets bigger every Sunday lol" Right?? And everybody's so talented, I definitely walk away with a bunch of new songs to repeat too
*shakes her head in amazement while contrinuing the hunt for another post. she reads through a couple more for individual acts before landing on a perfect segue*
@hb131 says "It's been so great seeing clips of Hanbin perform his new song but I can't wait to see a full pro-shot on here!"
Well~ you're in luck, bestie! Because he's coming riiight up. Everybody get ready for Janus' Hanbin, PURPLEKISS, Minjoie, and MCND!

--

*a few performances, Facebook shoutouts, VCRs, and a couple more performances later and she's in her rightful place: sitting tight between a couple of viewers with whom she's linked arms and convinced to sway and sing along to Busker Busker's iconic "Cherry Blossom Ending" which was currently dominating the cafe speakers with a few other spring hits*
duri georeoyo~~~
*ends it with a round of happy applause, all giggles in pure happiness at the outcome*
Ohh you guys were so good!
Okay, okay, you guys- everyone, unforunately this is our last segment of the day! But it'll be fun because we're going to trade some Spring events with my friends, Dao and Meera!
But fiiirst, I want to give an honorary mention to a couple more of ours that'll be happening at the same time: the Gurye Sansuyu Festival and the Everland Tulip festival. Both are an amaziiiinnngg excuse to see more pretty flowers~ Now,
*smiles, turning to the girl on her left*
Meera, could you tell us all where you're from and then how you celebrate spring there?
« Oh, of course! Hello, everybody! I am from India and one way we celebrate spring is with the Holi festival. It is also called the Festival of Colors because during Holi, one of the major activities is gathering in the streets and throwing dry colors and using water guns or balloons full of colored water to completely cover everyone in colors. It's so much fun!»
*gasps in genuine excitement at the mere prospect*
Oh my gaaad, that sounds SO fun! Dao, doesn't that sound fun? What do you do where you're from?
« We actually do something similar hahah. I was like "whooaa, that's like us!" In Thailand, where I'm from, one thing we have is the Songkran Water Festival where everyone goes out in the streets to have a really big water fight. It's in April to celebrate our New Year»
Ooh that's right! You guys follow a different calendar for certain things, hm?
*after confirmation and a little more chit chat, she lets out an impressed hum*
Wahh everybody's so different and interesting! I would love to hear about more spring celebrations around the world, so make you guys hit up the Simply Kpop socials after the show! We have to wrap it up here so we can enjoy our final performance from the iconic queen, Nicole. But thank you again to Dao and Meera for talking with me today. And thank YOU to everybody that showed up or is watching from home. I've been MiSo and this has been Simply Kpop. Come back to hang out next week! Bye byeeeeee~

*cheers along with the audience as the opening Carat XY performance comes to a close, the main camera panning away from them and across the crowd that's decked out for the holiday—noise makers, hats, tinsel pom poms, and the works speckling it with shades of silver and cold. the camera settles on the little niche she's made herself a part of, a new year's hat and 2023 glasses completing her look as she greets the camera enthusiastically before counting down on three fingers*
HAPPY NEW YEEEAAR~
*shouts along with the audience, giggling as their enthusiasm overwhelms even her mic'd up voice*
Simply for you, Simply Kpop! Happy Sunday and Happy New Year, Simply K-fam!! Hello hello to our fans all around the world, this is Simply Kpop and I'm Aurora's stunning cutie, MiSo
*does a flower pose, hardly holding onto the genuine expression she's supposed to be making before diving right back into the opening spiel*
Another year gone and another year's come, it's 2023! The year of the rabbit, which means it's MY year
*grins cheekily, framing her chin between her index and thumb and shoulder-chuckling*
AND it's the year of every other rabbit in the world, so make sure you tell all of your rabbits that you love them!
*sighs wistfully*
It's time for resolutions and spring cleaning and everything else. And today is time for a fresh batch of Simply Kpop guests and stages. Are you ready??
*gives the audience their due time to scream*
Excellent! Because today's guests are ready to bring in the New Year with you all. To start, we have stages from 5Eve, Moxiie, Loti, and Guljaem~

---

On stage after the last performance, tablet nestled in the crook of her arm, she does a little jig while singing the chorus of the song before joining in on the applause until her queue*
New year, new us! For this shout out corner, we decided to ask you guys about what you wanted to see from your faves in the New Year. Let's have a little looky look and maybe a few of our companies will feel inclined to help you out
*winks before scrolling through and picking a random tweet from the gallery*
@yolihanda032 on Twitter says they would like to see more fancafe communication or a Universe account from their favorite groups because they always miss them so much. Aww, hopefully you get to chat with your faves more; I'm sure they miss you too!
*holds up crossed fingers, grinning in support of the wish*
Next up, we haaaave @juniehime11, who says "Hi Miso and Simply Kpop! I'm June and I'm 11 years old" Omo, hii June!! Nice to meet you! Let's see.. "I want to see my first ever K-pop concert this year, so I hope some of my favorite groups go on tour." Well, June, I really really really hope you get to see the groups you love this year. I'm rooting for you!
*holds up a cheering fist, still utterly delighted at having such a young (and by association, adorable, viewer)*
Wahh, I loved thaaat
*coos before forcing herself back into focus, tucking the tablet under an arm*
Well, if you're watching right now, Junie-ya, I hope you're enjoying the show! Up next, we have Janus, Aurora, 3Whist, and Beauty Box!

---

*more performances pass, along with some Facebook shout outs, and a special clip from the closing act—showing off some charm points to build anticipation ahead of their performance later on. as usual, she's found herself as one of the crowd, in the midst of squeezing the life out of Flicker who apparently flew all the way in from Bermuda just to see them perform, on /her/ show specifically*
Uwahh, everybody's trying to make my cry today. Everybody's being so cute
*dabs at a few nonexistent tears while explaining the situation briefly for the mic before continuing on with the show*
Actually, this worked out because Dylan is our lucky ending interviewee! Yes, sadly, the episode is coming to an end. But! We can still have a little more fun.
Dylan, could you introduce yourself for the lovely people watching?
« Oh, uhh, hi! Hi there, I'm Dylan, from Hamilton, Bermuda. Nice to meet you all, bangawoyo »
Oooh, Dylan!! You speak Korean? Your pronunciation is really good
*gives a sold thumbs up in support while the poor guy tries to laugh off the sudden spotlight, nodding and shyly eeking out a "jogeum"*
Ahh, Flicker babies are so talented, seriously! Anyway, Dylan, it's the new year! And everybody is making resolutions. Do you have a New Years resolution? Is there anything you want to achieve this year?
« Actually, yeah! I, uhm, I want to get better at speaking Korean because I only know a few words. Aaand I also want to try teaching here in South Korean, teaching English at Busan Global Village »
Ehh? No way, I used to go there during the summer as a kid! Dylannn, it's a small world!
I'll be cheering you on in achieving your dream!!
*raises a fist before addressing the broader audience*
I'll be cheering everyone's wishes and resolutions on for this year, so let's have a happy 2023!
Thank you for talking to me and coming to visit, Dylan~
*tosses the same arm over Dylan's shoulder to side hug him while continuing her speech*
Everyone, don't forget that Simply K-pop will not rest!! until the world is one with K-pop. Have a fantastic week and enjoy our final stage from Dalmatian. See you guys next tiiiiimmeee~
*waves as the camera pans out, happy urging Dylan and the girl flanking her other side to join in, which encourages everyone else to do so as well*

*applauds and cheers the opening performance, a very newly debuted rookie group, from my seat among the viewers, the crowd a wave of various light sticks, banners, and other merch. also adding to the din, I wave enthusiastically to the camera*
Simply for you, Simply Kpop~ Hii, hello!
Greeting to our fans around the world, this is Simply Kpop and I'm Aurora's cutie-y MiSo~
*barely makes it through the greeting without a laugh, the wink tossed onto the end completely obliterating any attempts*
With the temperatures dipping lower and lower every day, it's safe to say it's officially Autumn. Wahh, can you believe it?! It's time to unpack the sweaters, get into the mood for spooky season, and finally get your hands the sweet persimmons that have been growing until now. For an equally sweet treat, always make sure to tune into Simply Kpop because we have some really great performances lined up for you today! Please help me welcome Miniheart, Day-C, Boni, and S.E.T. to the stage~
*grins, gesturing to the stage in question while the audience does their cheering*

---

*now standing on the stage after the last performance, I'm decked out in my DunDun look for later, makeup glinting in the high stage lights*
Alrighty, let's keep the magic going with a quick shout out corner~ Twitter user @joniejo says, "Hi, my name is Joanna and I love your show! My favorite song right now is Put It Straight by Aurora, it's so beautiful! I hope to see you all perform it in person one day. Greetings from Ireland." Woww, thank you so much, Joanna! We would love to perform it for you too. Fingers crossed~
*chimes cheekily, the chant floating on coattails of a light giggle*
Twitter user @sawadeekpop also has some love for one of our performing guests this week, they say, "I just wanted to give a huge congratulations to Ohm for his monuments debut! We're all cheering you on. Love, from Ploy and Thailand" Aww that's so sweet. I'm sure Ohm-ssi is getting lots of energy from everyone's love and support. Please continue to cheer the DSF fam on! And enjoy the show as Sizzy, OHM, Aurora, and Jun Bo-A are coming up next~

---

*after another series of performances, Twitter messages, and more performances with a Simply's Pick clip where a senior group shows their point choreo in between, I'm settled in among a different part of the crowd. one of the viewers next to me is holding a mic of her own while I go through the start of the closing spiel*
Okay, guys, we're coming up on the saddest part of the show: the end
*sighs forlornly before smiling and tossing an arm over my new friend's shoulder to give her a light squeeze*
But that can't happen until we greet a member of the Simply K audience. So, bestie, please let everyone know your name and where you're from~
*smiles, putting the ball in her court*
« Hi, my name's Kaitlyn and I'm from Mississipi in the U.S. »
Oooh, Mishishipiii, niice!!
*cosigns, despite no clue where that might even be close to*
Welcome to Simply Kpop, Kaitlyn! I really hope you've had a good time and that you've enjoyed all of the performances. Is this your first time in Korea?
« No, actually haha. I've lived her for almost a year now, I'm a student. »
Whoaa, that's so cool! What do you study?
*gasps in genuine awe, though a little tv-bolstered, as she explains her major in Engineering, before naturally driving the conversation toward the week's chosen topic of Autumn snack*
You know, here in South Korea, things like dried persimmons, roasted sweet potatoes, chestnuts, and fishcake soup are really popular to eat in the Autumn. Do you have a favorite snack that you eat in Mish—I'm not going to embarrass myself again hahaha—Do you have a favorite Autumn snack back home in the U.S.?
« hahaha I do! There's a brand called Pepperidge Farm that make pumpkin cheesecake cookies. They're soo good »
Oooh, they sound good! I'll have to look them up later
*makes a show of whispering that, stage whispering right into my mic before straightening back into my personal space*
Thank you so much for chatting with me Kaitlyn! And, everyone, remember: Simply Kpop won't rest until the world is one with Kpop. We have one final stage to wrap up our show. Here comes Deluxxe and I'll see you next time. Byyyyyeeee!
*waves, starting with one hand and then using both as the intro music and crowd intermingle to open the final performance*
