(filmed after the last day of smtown in tokyo)
pre-filming conversations:
yanna sat in front of the camera, being given the question cards as the staff started putting food on the table.
“can i speak in english? it’s ten-hyung anyways”, she checked with the staff and the replied that it was fine. they’re just gonna translate and add korean subs on the video. she rummaged through the questions and laughed at the fan-asked ones, wondering if ten approved them and were comfortable talking about such things. the staff replied that he was and she mentioned her relief.
for a more comfortable setting, most of the staffs were asked to leave the hotel room. it was only yanna, ten & one of the managers behind the camera to help them with the questions they’re supposed to answer.
“today… is the first episode of ‘friendship talk’. we have food, so we’re just mostly gonna eat and talk about the last… 8(?) years of our friendship. how do you feel about that, hyung?”
ten could only proudly look at her
“it’s an honor to be on yanna’s corner”
yanna only reacted by grabbing sushi with her chopsticks and acting like she didn’t hear him.
“i feel good. and i feel like i’ll enjoy the conversations we’ll be having. it’s not all the time that we get to talk about things like these…”
cue yanna clapping at his response, saying “as expected”
grabbing her chopsticks, the girl placed different kinds of sushi on her plate and asked which ones he liked so she could put some on his as well.
they talked about which language they’ll be using and both agreed on english but with mixed korean.
“are you ready?” “no, i’m nervous all of a sudden”
first question: “how did you two meet?”
“i remember /exactly/ where and how i met you”
cue yanna biting on her chopsticks unsure if they were remembering the same thing
“let’s say it in unison so we’ll know if we remember the same thing”
“outside the dorms because of johnny-hyung”
“after training with johnny-hyung”
yanna clapped as soon as they both answered, delighted that she remembered the same thing. ten the initiated a high-five as he smiled proudly.
“i was so scared that i was wrong”,
cue ten giving her water while laughing.
“we met because, it was after training for that day and johnny-hyung and i were going back to the dorms… ae-cha was crying outside”
yanna already covering her face in pure embarrassment.
“i really cried a lot when i was a trainee, it was really no joke”.
“you did, i was shocked. i, like, saw you a lot with mark and the others but i was surprised seeing you crying outside our dorms. i thought one of the trainees were fighting with you….”
both of them laughing at his deduction.
“i really just cried over simple things”
“she was crying and johnny-hyung got so worried so i was like (😦) too, even though we never formally, like, met. then she told us why she was crying, then-“ he stopped when yanna suddenly hit his arm— embarrassed about the next part of the story. but ten only continued.
“she had tears in her eyes, she had like puppy dog eyes when crying and she looked up to me and was like ‘who are you?’ while /still/ sobbing”
yanna pouted as she listened in on ten’s story about her, munching on her sushi shyly. she remembered that, as well as how johnny laughed saying she looked so lost all of a sudden.
“after that, we started approaching each other more. ‘cause our dance teachers talked highly of her, and i would be like ‘oh, /that/ yanna’”
“i can’t remember why i was crying…”
second question: what’s your favorite memory with each other?
yanna started clapping and laughing as she remembered hers, even raising her hand like it was necessary.
cue ten genuinely confused, not remembering what it was.
“ten-hyung took me out to go eat bingsu…”
she glanced at him to check if he was getting where she was going with her story.
“we ate bingsu nearby our dorms and he told me that he was going to be in a new unit.”
“why’s that your favorite?”
ten still confused because he didn’t expect yanna to answer with that since it was just a random day for them.
“because you looked really excited and happy about it, after so long i saw you in that state and it really made me vividly remember how you looked like that time…”
the two turned quiet for a few seconds, making yanna shy before silently laughing.
“see, i knew this was gonna be weird at one point.”
her manager saying “you’re gonna make someone cry in one of these episodes, or you’re gonna cry” and she just continues eating while ten laughs.
“anyways, your turn”, she turned the question around and ten could only laugh even more.
“mine was back in trainee days”
“the first time you performed at the rookies show and you cried”
cue him laughing at her again.
“why am i always crying in your memories…”
“you cried, and that time you were already close with us. almost everyone. but even though that was true, you ran to me that time while crying. i, really, i was so touched”, he told her truthfully.
“i didn’t think you’d remember that….”
“i hugged hyung that time because you helped me become confident while i was practicing with mark-hyung and you seemed like you were willing to hug me, i feel like everyone else was also nervous and you seemed like you were fine.”
“but seriously why was i always crying…”
third question: what is your favorite thing about each other?
“ten-hyung liked me as i am from the start.”
cue ten smiling widely because his answer was greatly linked to that
“like, since we’ve talked about me crying a lot during trainee days, even though he knew that he never told me to be like ‘stronger’ or to stop being sensitive. with other things too, he never forces me to be like this or that. and, it’s not that other members force me to become something i’m not, but they always tell me to be stronger and that’s okay. i do need that sometimes, but ten-hyung’s always like ‘that’s fine, you’ve always been like that’. i like how he guides me that way instead of the other way.”
yanna looking away because she’s realizing it’s awkward.
so ten just answers as well while laughing at her.
“mine’s that you never change.”
yanna literally ignoring him while she drinks water.
“a lot of things changed but your heart never does, it’s just channeled towards other things now. but the way you love people is still the same, you treat those people dear to you the same. you’ve just learned how to hide yourself from people who don’t know you, but that’s okay. you needed to protect yourself a lot and that’s alright. but i really like how you never change towards me no matter, like, how far away i am and stuff like that.”
skips to the next question before anyone gets emotional
fourth question: describe each other in one word.
“are you saying i’m your fan…?”
“no, actually lovely. but that works too.”
them high-fiving for no reason.
fifth question: what’s one thing you’ve wanted to do together but haven’t yet?
“ah, we want to be in a unit together! just us. and jisung!”
“right right right, we’ve been wanting to do that and we had idea back in 2020 but then jisung got injured so started just adding ideas into it even more. by now, we’ve got a great concept in mind.”
“i’ve also been meaning to take her to thailand again, just us.”
yanna agreeing while chewing on her sushi.
sixth/last question: what’s something czennies don’t know about you two?
“ten-hyung… got mad at me once, because he took louis and leon to my apartment and they didn’t want to leave.”
cue both of them laughing but also ten stuffing his mouth with sushi, slightly embarrassed.
“it wasn’t like ‘MAD mad’ but he was like ‘ae-cha, do something about it!’ and he was so irritated and i kinda didn’t wanna do anything because it was funny to me.”
it took them a while to move on before ten could give his answer.
“uhm.. yanna.. OH, yanna had me blocked the whole time i was in china!”
cue both of them laughing once again, causing ten’s water to spill all around the table.
literally a panicked yanna still laughing while wiping it with tissues and ten’s just enjoying the chaos. she then explains:
“i didn’t know i had him blocked… yangyang asked me so seriously about it like ‘did you two fight?’ and i was just like ‘no?? wait, what?’”.
“i told yangyang about it and he said maybe you weren’t feeling good and i was like ‘it’s been months though, what kind of year is she having?’”
cue both of them laughing as they remembered yangyang’s confusion.
a message to end the episode with:
yanna’s already laughing and grabbing a tissue jokingly to pass to ten while he just laughs as well.
“firstly, i’m really proud of you. you keep achieving new and better things, that you rightfully deserve. and, i’m thankful that you never get sick of guiding me despite us not having much time to be together. i really admire your hardwork and dedication as an artist, but i also admire you for being a great person and friend.”
finding it awkward, yanna starts drinking water as ten puts an arm around her and gives a hug.
before starting his message, ten told the girl to look at him while giggling.
“you grew up well, really.”
the two smiled at each other with teary eyes before jokingly punching each other to make the mood lighter.
the episode ends with a hug and pats on the back as the two kept saying “good job” to each other.
