STOPPP NOAH LITERALLY SAID โWithout Yejun, thereโs no way the rest of us could be happy eitherโ you can really feel how much he means that omg I love Madhyungz so much ๐ญ๐๐
๐: Anyway the reason I called is because well whenever we have a birthday broadcast, itโs basically become a tradition for the members to take turns confessing their love
๐: Yeah itโs officially become a tradition now
๐: It really has
๐: So earlier while I was working out, I was thinking about what I should talk about today and honestly, I felt really bad for Yejun today
๐: Ahh right now, every time the members call me, they all say they feel bad for me
๐: Yeah seriously, right before the broadcast, when we were eating, your under eye circles were almost down to your cheeks and you looked really sensitive/exhausted
๐: So I felt really bad seeing you like that, you were sweating so much, wiping your head with a towel, going around while checking things and monitoring other stuff, preparing for your birthday broadcast, practicing, filmingโฆ and you never once complained today, you were just going at it the whole time
๐: But you know, sometimes you just have days like that
๐: Thatโs why I felt so bad for you, honestly my heart really hurt today
๐: You made me feel like someone was watching over me and protecting me again, Iโm always grateful for that
๐: Yeahโฆ I really felt for you a lot today, honestly there wasnโt really anything I could do to help, even though I wanted to
๐: Right, then maybe next time we should just take concerts out of September? ๐
๐: Yeah, maybe that wouldnโt be a bad idea because today, my heart really hurt seeing you like that
๐: But Iโm okay because this is what I enjoy doing. I had fun
๐: Right, of course once the broadcast started today, you mustโve been having so much fun but before that, you still have to prepare everything
๐: You have to give PLLI their gifts, show them what you prepared for your birthday, give them everything you wanted to give them and in the middle of all that, you still have all your other responsibilities to take care of
๐: So today I really felt Yejunโs burden, I could really feel the weight of being a leader
๐: Lately watching Yejun work so hard as a leader, Iโve been learning a lot from him too and especially during this concert, you were seriously so cool
๐: Yeahโฆ there were really a lot of people there
๐: And afterward everyone was honestly exhausted, right? We had a day off the next day but you still came in because you had to prepare three broadcasts
๐: I was in so much pain that night that I couldnโt do anything but seeing you come in the next day and keep working like that made me think โWow heโs really incredibleโ
๐: So today I really want to give our leader a round of applause, youโre doing so so well and weโre always grateful for you
๐: Iโm seriously getting paid by the members because they always say things like this to me, thank you so much
๐: Without Yejun, thereโs no way the rest of us could be happy either
๐: We all prepare everything together, the members always lead me along too so Iโm able to do really wellโฆ
Hearing noah cried really made me cried too. Honestly, I didnโt expect noah to address almost everything in tonightโs weverse live. He mentioned many things, how all the members have been really busy and are preparing many things, how heโs just a normal alien who can feel exhausted and wants some relaxing time to spent for himself or his family, how all the members know a lot internal fights in this fandom incurred, how PLLI are often fights with malwares and get hurt by it. It made him really sad and upset.
As much as he tried to be tough, but it gets too much in the end. He also mentioned regarding the fact that some people want a member to get out of the group while in reality, theyโre really close like a family. It really hurts him. Seeing how people can think and type maliciously like that.
He mentioned how the members also get hurt seeing us get hurt, despite them trying not to care and reassure PLLI. But, itโs not easy to do it when people they love, PLLI, got hurt. It really has taken a toll on them, especially during these busy times.
Thatโs why he made us promise to be good, to not fight, to be kind and happyโฆ ๐ญ๐ญ
Letโs not failed him as a fan, we can do better. I really want to include all parts of the live, but itโll be too long, thatโs why I hope youโll listen to this part and give it some thought. You can do this much, right?
I wanna summarize what Noah talked about during tonight's live because honestly hearing him say all of this made me really emotional and sad ๐ฅน
- Noah wanted to clear up a common misunderstanding that some fans have about PLAVE's schedule. He said many people assume that the members only become busy once a comeback starts but that's actually not how it works for them
- According to Noah, their workload is almost the same whether they're actively promoting an album or not. In fact, he said the period right before a comeback is usually even more hectic than the promotion period itself. While fans might only notice them once teasers, music shows, and promotions begin, the members have already been spending months preparing behind the scenes
- He explained unlike many other artists who often get a break after promotions end, PLAVE continues working almost nonstop. Even when fans don't see them publicly, they're still recording songs, producing music, filming content, rehearsing and preparing future projects
- Noah also acknowledged that this creates a gap betwren what fans see and what's actually happening. Other idols' work is often visible through public schedules, variety shows, music shows and promotional activities. PLAVE however spends a huge amount of time doing work that fans simply can't see yet. As a result it can sometimes look like they're less active, even though they're actually just as busy, if not busier
- He admitted that it genuinely hurts the members when they come across comments saying they've "lost their original passion" or that "they're not like they used to be" he said those comments leave them feeling conflicted because from their perspective, they're actually working harder than ever before. They often find themselves wondering why their efforts aren't being perceived that way ๐ฅน
- At the same time Noah emphasized that they're not asking fans to believe they never rest. He openly admitted that they're human too so they do take breaks usially a day on the weekend, sometimes two and spend time with their families but he also explained that creative work isn't something you can do endlessly without stopping
