this will be a written interview ACE = me AERA = @AERA-_ ACE : hi guys! its the one and only, ace aka giselle ahn! wlcm to the first around-in-spop podcast! please welcome our special guest, AERA! Aera, hyd? AERA : I'm so happy to be here today <33 i've been feeling good this week, thanks for asking ^^ ACE: sorry for this but, for those who may not know you well, introduce yourself! AERA: my name is AERA hwang, an aspiring spopper! ACE: when did you first start spop and where you found it? AERA: this might sound silly but I was stalking my friend's prf and found her spop account! I was immediately interested and created my own <33 ACE: is there a lore or inspo behind your debut album: the world's corrupt, so am i? AERA: yes! it was mostly inspired by the song oh no! by marina!! the lore is mostly around turning evil or being corrupted by the world I guess TT ACE: ooh. ig the world can be corrupt sometimes. marina's songs are inspiring! what was the first group you got accepted in and what lookalike was it? AERA: it was GOT8, a stray kids lookalike group! we might be redebuting soon!! ACE: ooh i heard abt it bc got8 is under one of the grps im in called ILY. ive never seen a skz lookalike grp so i hope they redebut! this next question is abt the spop comm; if you cld change or add smth into the spop comm, what would u do? AERA: ADD MORE UNIQUE LOOKALIKES!! I swear I keep seeing katseye (I love them dw, but the amount of times-) and its driving me a little crazy TT ACE: lol same except with lsrfm and illit lookalikes. we literally need lookalikes like cherry bullet, everglow, badvillian, tri.be etc. this next question is abt the spop comm again: what's one or two things you love abt the spop comm? AERA: I love how everyone is super nice and supportive of each other + people give kind feedback and tell you what to improve on rather than just saying you did well on everything! ACE: reall, everyone is truthful instead of lying, so we dont grow up as adults to get used to being complimented for normal stuff and everyone is so online! next question is: how many groups are you currently in and how many auditions did you fail? AERA: probably 15-20 sobs most of them are in predebut too- & MANY- but that's alright! I don't need to be in so many groups lol ACE: what group lookalikes would you like in spop? AERA: ITZY. BOYNEXTDOOR. TXT. ATEEZ. K/DA ACE: yess itzy! imo, also: NiziU, nmixx and tri.be. moving on, if you made a company, what would it be called and what lookalike would your group based off? AERA: I'm planning on making a company in the very far away future lol, I think it would be called RIOT labels with a motto of 'sound that shakes the system' IMMA HOST ATEEZ LOOKALIKE FIRST- ACE: oh lol i was going to make a company called next gen ent but there was already one T_T. anyjays, what type of music genre should more groups include? AERA: jpop, the kind of music the neighbourhood and arctic monkeys makes, musical theatre ACE: i agree with jpop but we should also add filipino music and chinese music. so aera, who are your favourite soloists and groups and why? AERA: for soloists probably aezrielle, luna and cat (there's a lot more lol) and for groups its gotta be ERIS, NOVA, 0ASIS (I wasn't there for that era but y'know) and fearnot because the line-ups are actually so op XDD ACE: yesss stan fearnot and aezrielle! aera, the podcast is almost coming to an end, would you like to promote your or a groups upcoming comeback or debut?
