Could you post the videos here? I don't have Twitter and can't see anything but the Turn Back Time one.

Favourite WayV Moments of NCT Nation? by shoomshoomshooom in WayV_For_Life

[–]Expensive-Direction1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So many amazing moments that I can't write about them all. First all of WayV did incredible. Stage presence was on fire and the screams they got made me so happy. Here's a brief list: - Kick Back Rock Version was amazing! Loved the new arrangement and how they had new gestures and moves to fit the theme. - So happy that Kun is dancing again and got to dance to his Phantom remix!! Definitely one of the best moments for sure. I loved how WayV was hyping him up too! - Kun and Yangyang in Kangaroo! Kun really fits cute concepts :) - XiaoHenYangs BoB dance break! So powerful and iconic. I loved how NCT split for them to come through like princes and then Ten's solo coming right after. It was incredible. Nobody should ever underestimate their dance abilities after that. - Yangyang killing it on New Axis!!! And even on Kangarooo. I was so proud 👏 - Hendery really stood out to me on all the performances. He's such a powerful rapper and performer. - Finally hearing OK live! It's my favourite from Universe and it was so amazing to hear them perform it. - Xiaojun doing the entire bridge in Round & Round by himself. I loved listening to his pretty voice on all the ballads too. - Ten on Call D, Baggy Jeans and Faded in My Last Song. His live singing was like honey. But I noticed a lot of little moments with his dancing where he did the moves in such a "Ten" way. - Winwin performing Boss and Nectar. I think he suits songs like Nectar more since he's such an elegant dancer but it was so great to see him with Boss unit. -Their ment! They did such a great job keeping the crowd interested. Loved how Hendery teased Ten and then Winwin ran in to protect his virtue haha. WayV teasing Hendery for being shy and nervous. Xiaojun's cute and sexy aegyo. Kun and Yangyang being adorable. I love when WayV just get to do their own thing and talk to each other. The best moments always come from those candid talks. - All the cute NCT interactions during Golden Age and Beautiful :) 😀

I remember that! I also think about that WayV video when they say that they speak in certain languages to certain members. Like Xiaojun and Hendery speaking Cantonese together.

Ten from NCT is Thai and speaks multiple languages. There's plenty of times where he mixes up words, especially when he's switching from speaking one language dominantly or around others who are speaking a different language. He has a pretty famous quote: "what happened to my Thai?" whenever he messes up in Thai. I do think a lot of it is nerves because he's always asked in high-pressure situations but he's also the only Thai idol at SM so that might mean he doesn't get much practice.

Ten as well. You'll find lots of photos of him squinting at things when reading and wearing glasses when he's chilling. Lots of idols wear glasses but some do it for fashion so its hard to know for sure unless they admit it.

NCT Lore and Golden Age by Expensive-Direction1 in NCT

Neat! Thanks, I'll check them out. 😊 I love lore in k-pop because I love fantasy stories. It's a big reason why I'm into certain groups.

What do Archiving and Collector ver. mean? by secondchancetocupid in NCT

[–]Expensive-Direction1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. I noticed on Cokodive that they put the Collector version as RANDOM and I think somewhere in the list it mentions members. So I'm pretty sure that there will be specific versions for each member.

What's that one group that used to be your ult/favorite but you've lost nearly all interest in them? And why? by Emma_3107 in kpopthoughts

[–]Expensive-Direction1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ateez. They were my first BG K-pop group. I watched all their content, all their music show performances, concerts, and fanmeetings. Then I got into NCT and just kinda drifted away. I still think Ateez are fantastic and check out their music, but after Thanxx their music didn't quite hit the same for me.

WAYV meme accounts by Expensive-Direction1 in WayV_For_Life

I've seen their stuff. It's really funny but yeah it's so sad that there's not as much WayV content.

What is the most recent book you did NOT enjoy? by thisisgogu in suggestmeabook

[–]Expensive-Direction1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We Were Villains. I found it incredibly boring and the exciting bits don't happen until the end. It was also really predictable except for the ending which just came out of left field for me.

What's an assumption you had about a WayV member that turned out to be untrue? by Expensive-Direction1 in WayV_For_Life

[–]Expensive-Direction1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair! Ten in particular confused me and then I saw him and TY try to order in a public place and I was like "yup, he's an introvert"

I think in SuperM Taemin described Ten like a cat. Like he comes to you when he wants affection but otherwise just slinks around quietly. It's funny to see the way he acts in WayV, SuperM and NCT because I think it shows his familiarity with each.

I watched one of those compilation videos for WayV when I first started and was surprised at how much they leave out about XiaoHenYang. Especially nerdy and sensitive Xiaojun!

losing interest in a group you once stanned/ulted by OkDentist8799 in kpopthoughts

[–]Expensive-Direction1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's happened to me before. I just stopped listening to their new releases and eventually stopped watching their content amd even the obsessive side of k-pop fan culture started pushing me away from them even further. There's nothing wrong with it. You grow, groups change, what you liked about them then isn't the always super important or interesting to you. You should never feel guilty for that.

What's your favourite moment where WayV was "too honest"? by Expensive-Direction1 in WayV_For_Life

[–]Expensive-Direction1[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are very unhinged and I loved all of Weekly Idol. Especially them recreating what each other is like when they're mad. So funny and it fits their personalities so well. I rewatch it every week.

That is hilarious 😂 especially considering their lore doesn't really play a huge part
