ERIC NAM on

[@shaiira9133]

MAMAMOO - 4 VERY FEROCIOUS WOMEN. I mean where's the lie. 😂😂😂

[@shaiira9133]

@Phoebe페베 18:23

[@moonhwi3754]

eric did get ambushed on one of the episodes i faintly remember. plus they were introduced to each other via escape room i think

[@camilaferno]

When he said that all that went through my mind was the time they ganged up against Solar and cheated in a game to get them to kiss

[@leoem4nuel]

Eric is choosing his word carefully here. I appreciate his thoughtfulness.

[@galllowglass]

@@leoem4nuel Yess, with everything they both went through because of the show, it takes someone brave to openly say they became good friends and to speak so well of Solar and Mamamoo. But I'm glad they're both pushing back against the hate, you could tell they were (and probably still are) very fond of each other, you don't make a friend like that every day and they don't deserve to lose that.

[@ialecarine4292]

18:22 Eric describing mamamoo: "four very ferocious women", why do I love it so much??

[@saninuraenii388]

The ship is sailing my dear

[@Jae-Y]

"four"ocious women

[@andrewfera5414]

Well right now Tiffany Young and Amber Liu are trying to make strides in America. I hope I get to see either of them on Not Too Deep sometime.

[@johanmoon]

THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN!!

[@bernice9798]

Tiffany is kinda cringey.

"My friend Tablo" damn boi name drop much

[@yesipan]

for real lol i did a double take

[@leonie9102]

listening to his podcast tho... he be like "the other day i was hanging with bts v..." he knows e v e r y b o d y. i'm not even shocked anymore when i hear him name drop new people. but yeah he did podcasts with tablo too and his brother also manages epik high internationally sooo yeah they know each other

[@michelleautore2945]

Tablo is his boi. Did "Cave Me In" with gallant & Tablo. Nam brothers organized Epik High's North American tour 2019. They're boys fr.

[@xelestial_sky]

His brother literally manages Tablo, Tablos stay on Eric's Instagram page too. He got rights.

[@klrbbt1503]

i mean Dive Studio's ceo/co-founder is brian nam, his brother, which tablo podcast's is under, im not sure if dive studio is literally founded by nam brothers but that's possible, and also both eric and tablo are manage by eddie who's also eric's brother, and also 2nd gen kpop idols who were from outside of sokor are kinda tight bc most of them talk in english and barely korean

[@becalmhyejin]

18:22 Eric Nam starts speaking about being married to Solar on WGM!!!! I also love how he describes my girls XD He's promoting Mamamoo better than RBW.

[@MsAnotherCrazyfan]

When grace asked where she should start to educate herself about Kpop, im like... the Kpop daebak show with Eric Nam

[@ritz673]

Another kpop podcast she can also listen to is Ask me about Kpop podcast.

[@seulnx7092]

Eric calling kpop fans nice straight up made me laugh. I'm one myself but..... y'know

[@XdanceladyX]

Well most fans (no matter the fandom) are indeed nice! It's just that the 1% loud ones who like drama sadly get the most attention. But that kind of makes sense, it's kind of like how bad news spread easier since they are more 'entertaining'.

[@deliii395]

What r u talking about? Everyone i've seen is so nice....but i mostly only interact with only armys...so maybe thats why.

[@seulnx7092]

eric nam mentioning mamamoo to grace!? I AM DECEASED

SAME

[@IamJeeenah]

Eric Nam is one of those guys who continues to level up in attractiveness the older he gets. Like back when he was on ASC, he was cute as hell. Now on the Kpop Daebak Show, he looks *chef's kiss* Anyways, I'm so happy and proud of him 🤧💕

[@Relectrod]

46:25 Eric lowkey be thinking about the time when Solar surprised him at the airport and serenaded him ;)

[@yellowcrocus]

Relectrod I hope that's actually what's in his mind tho 😁

[@daphneedelisha5698]

Honestly that’s plausible since he said he can’t talk about it... “nice surprises here and there” like bro sdhkjsdh :’) but fr he probably wouldn’t be allowed to talk about it since it’ll spark rumors and shiz AAA

[@justabbythx3745]

I strongly believe Eric Nam could break onto the western music scene and I am ready to fully support him!

[@rvermillion8188]

When Grace asking about BTS, maybe she's worry Eric will said something unpleasant. But don't worry Gracie. Eric knows BTS since they are day 5, making shenanigans at his shows, he hosting them kcon, and saw them in Wembley. Their friendship builds from BTS earlier days till now, he watch them closely. And his answer is so heartwarming, that talent and hardwork IS at work to make BTS as big as now.

[@jktm7785]

are you mad or smth? she just asked about bts out of curiosity and eric answered. end of story

[@outrohersaidgayrights413]

do u know grace helbig? she is very sweet. she wasnt asking so someone could say something bad about them. she was just asking how they blew up because she doesnt know anything about kpop.

[@rvermillion8188]

Omg imagine this podcast with Eric nam, Henry Lau, Amber Lu are on together. The three friends, the stories they would tell. Thx Grace for having Eric on. So cool to hear his personal story. I feel so weird of how they never lost their English and I'm here loosing my native language and not gaining much English hah. Eric's answer is NRA good job. His mom reminded of all Asian parents

[@utamimoehady5726]

Eric Nam. He's smart , humble, nice person n singer as well.

Such great chemistry! This was a really strong conversation. Cheers :D

[@domomo19]

Eric Nam's got so much chill and personality, and effortlessly funny too. He's cute alright but all that just makes him even hotter. Damn dude is a total package!!

[@mouakath]

Wow, Eric is so articulate and such an amazing guest! This was an amazing interview! And Grace, you actually interviewed him! So many people are out to interview k-pop singers for their differences rather than who they are as a person! I really enjoyed this!!

[@liliancitywalker]

This is a collaboration I never thought would happen. And absolutely grateful and love it.(Thank you Grace!) You guys have great chemistry in your conversations, so much fun!! Hahahaha Also that Mamamoo comment 😂

Bro. I just keep shouting NO WAY into the universe. 😭 What is life, dude?

[@moonamigi]

eric saying how he had no choice but to go to korea to be recognized as a talented artist hits deep. There are so many asian-americans, asian-canadians, etc in the kpop industry because it's super difficult and nearly unheard of to make it big (at least in the beginning of their career) in the US because of systematic racism. I'm rooting for all of those who are coming back to the states to make a name for themselves at home and for future generations!

[@TimeToDancxe]

This was so much fun to watch/listen. Thank you for having Eric on the show!

[@fandomsunitetoday]

Yes Eric!

[@dddey]

PLEASE COME BACK TO SEATTLE ERIC. This interview had so many interesting things about Eric I never knew about. Thank you for not having the same old boring stuff they always ask in interviews, this was way more interesting.

[@shockofthenew]

I came here for Eric's comments about BTS (which are great!) but I left thinking about how intense Asian American erasure has been over the years, especially in the arts. How insane is it that many of the most famous AsAm singers had to travel across the world, learn a new language and adapt to a new culture just to find an audience and be given space to promote, because it was simply impossible for them to make a career in the states... I hope the success of BTS (along with recent wins for Asian film/tv) helps to open things up for Asians to be seen as 'viable' to be cool/creative/attractive/passionate/emotionally engaging stars in the West.
