[@zoeg5451]

i'm really glad that she was doing that because that's the best thing you can do when you have an interpreter. if you ramble on and on things can start to get lost in translation and the interpreter won't be able to properly convey what you're saying

Umm, a more professional translator would take notes. That's what the translators at the UN do...I felt like she could've done a better job

[@nerdpinguin]

@@jiminisbae69 of course she could have done a bit better but this translator is clearly not used to interpreting entire paragraphs like the people at the UN would be accustomed to doing. she did a good job conveying the girls' messages & anything left over fan translators are really always quick to clear up :)

It's a subtle thing but notice how Hwasa paid attention to the translator struggling to memorise and translate a larger part of what they said so she started to speak with breaks so the translator would have time to translate? A considarate Queen

I really love the way Hwasa talks. Like her words really show how thoughtful and matured she is. For e.g: when she said that "since in Korea there is this trainee system so they didn't really get to think of other options for career and just focus on being artists" and Zach said that "of course you're kinda gave up things in order to become artists" and then Hwasa reconstructed his words and said that "not only artists, every careers and every person need to give up something in order to achieve their goals." Such a beautiful, matured and intelligent young lady.

Fact about Mamamoo: They're so inclusive and they talk about self love since early years, also they adjusted their lightstick so fans with disabilities can enjoy as others, Hwasa said if she's "fat" for Korean standard she'll make her OWN standard,, and thr fact she's supporting the no-bras in a conservative country speaks volumes. They've been working non-stop lately and I'm feeling it is about time to search more about time because no one is doing it like them. Also listen to "YES I AM" on their yt channel for the right lyrics honestly the best song to start knowing Mamamoo.

[@silvamena1137]

Can you explain to me the lightstick thing?

[@insignificantmoo187]

oStarshipo oSubso it's probably because one time in their fansign or fan meet one fan approached mamamoo(specifically wheein) and the fan was mute so they were enlightened that they have fans with disabilities. Thus, they decided to add the vibration in the light stick so that the fans can 'listen' to their music in a way as well. ❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊😊 sorry if it was long. I just wanted to share how it came to that.

[@detergenthwachae]

[@kalaksed]

@@detergenthwachae that, unfortunately, is how it often goes with translating, esp something this long... you typically have to get the main point across and not the fine details or else things will get bogged down. especially with how fast both sides were talking in this interview. yes, it would have been nice for her to say more to the girls and translate more of what they said, but that's tough to do in a live show with a time limit. while not perfect, the translator did a good job. and was quite likely beating herself up afterwards for not having done better and that's also why lilysubs is subtitling what our girls said

imo, the translation about Hwasa’s inspiration for 'Be Calm' was kinda lacking.. (definitely not a knock on the translator because it’s incredibly difficult to remember and translate so much material so quickly) Hwasa said before spring approached, she experienced separation from someone she really loved..so it made spring feel really flat, when it was a season that only appeared beautiful+bright before. (fans know that she is referring to her uncle who was like a father to her passing away due to a car accident at the end of 2017)

this is gonna sound weird but with all the “baby voices” i hear girls speak in the kpop sphere, i’m really relieved to hear mature voices, especially moonbyul’s.

[@shesapolca]

RIGHTTT

[@1anna1]

Nah it's not weird. That's why I'm having a hard time with kpop girl groups. Mamamoo are the one who stood out to me. Their voices are deeper, speaking and singing voice, so they don't sound like little girls and I really like that

[@azucena6790]

anna this 100 percent

[@Squad2SoiFon]

It's not that those other girls naturally have 'baby voices', some of their voices are actually so different when they're not trying to be cute, but with younger girl groups with brighter, cuter concepts, they need to appear cheerful/cute all the time. That's why they make their voices higher and it can get really annoying but that's what they gotta do ;(

[@VeronicaLopez-ly8sw]

It’s because they’re not just a “girl” group, they’re a WOMEN group

Hwasa is very considerate. She always gave her answers in parts to help the translator and Zach to understand

I can see Hwasa was the most nervous one during the interview just by looking at her body language but still she spoke eloquently & same as the other members. I still don't get why the translator didn't include Hwasa sharing about loosing someone who was dear to her & how it effect her take & view about her part as spring in the album.

[@victoriaosei6688]

I was thinking the same thing why the translator didn’t mention Hwasa loosing someone close to her. But the translator asked her if that was her personal story so I thought maybe the translator didn’t want to expose that as Hwasa said it was her personal story.

[@chocostars1]

I really like Mamamoo. This interview was so informative. Thank you! oh I should say, I like how real Mamamoo is. Like they are idols but you can tell they are a different kind of idol.

A bit unfortunate that there was a misunderstanding with the inspirational post that Hwasa "posted". Its no wonder she got confused because it was phrased in a way that implied she posted something, when what he was referring to was the fancam of her solo stage at their concert where she talked about her life.

[@moonkafu2157]

It actually makes me nervous to have to wait. Maybe it's because I learned to keep up with subtitles when I was like 10 when I started watching anime and some k dramas, but it really freaks me out I also think that the subtitles are actually more accurate, since I want to get as many details as the language barrier allows me I think I prefer them more, but I understand why people may prefer the oral translation

MAMAMOO is one of a kind that you can’t find on another group. They’re so real and powerful, I don’t know how to describe it. I think that’s because they’re coming from unknown small company and makes them so special (they’re success with their real talents). Stan talent, stan MAMAMOO.

[@jordanarare1669]

They are like on a different level of "kpop idols". They are ARTISTS. They are ALL INDIVIDUALLY successful which is very rare in the kpop industry, usually one or two out of the group would have solos but all four of them all contribute musicallu and CREATE their own music and even CHEOROGRAPH their songs. All of their solos have made some record and are acknowledged not only by young people but seniors and adults as well. Not all idols are capable of that, yet mamamoo stands out. This group is not catered to young people but woman of ALL AGES and for a kpop group to be so versitle and be loved by a huge range is something that doesn't happen very often. That just proves that they are different and make that much of an impact on this industry.

[@sofiaroyal]
