Run To You (Star Beam x NCT 127 Photoshoot for Ceci)

[Official_STRBM]

NCT 127 & Star Beam's story is like a typical rom-com of a popular boy falling for an ordinary girl in school

When they released their latest comebacks on the same date, fans wondered, "So how did this happened?". These two groups are gunning for a bigger stardom & many are curious how did this blossoming ship came to be?

NCT 127 & Star Beam is said to to be the most unexpected ship of 2019 & many loved their onstage chemistry & immense talent. Before they thought of each other as "out of their league" thanks to their status in the industry, after all, NCT 127 is SM Entertainment's next big bet while Star Beam being heralded as the MBF Ent's pride since their 2017 debut (who became stars in their own right & garnered trophies even before NCT 127 came into the picture). But in reality, both of them are just down-to-earth young adults in their 20s who are constantly trying to prove themselves in an unforgiving industry.

In this photoshoot, NCT 127 & Star Beam have showed off their sporty styles & natural chemistry on cam. They have a photo shoot in a sports complex where they showed off their active side. They were grouped into pairs and they will interview each other.

HYOSHIN & TAEIL

FIRST IMPRESSION
TL: You look like snobs /laughs/
HS: Oh sorry, Taeil oppa. Actually we are not snobs, we are just bunch of awkward girls who is afraid of making the first move, since you know /talks in gibberish language/
TL: I mean you look like ice princesses /laughs/
HS: Yaaaaaah~~~~
TL: Mianhae, Hyoshin-ah~~~
/awkward pause/
TL: okay /cough/ Hyoshin, what is your first impression about us?
HS: um... intimidating
TL: oh no, what the hell HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HS: We can't show ourselves when you pass-by during our debut promotions
TL: Oh no~~~

BEST THING ABOUT COLLABORATING
HS: NCT 127 is... COOL
TL: You are very talented, funny & sweet people in real life. Also very caring. They don't fail us every time.
HS: Aww thank you oppa
TL: Like, imagine performing on roller skates then you're twirling batons, how did you do it?
HS: We still suck
TL: No~~~ you did well
HS: Thanks

SECRET HABIT
TL: Hyoshin? when we're practicing, she tries to make a list of foods she wants to prepare for us
HS: And so? I do this since I love cooking
TL: To her future husband, you'll be very lucky
HS: My girls are already lucky. Anyways, Taeil oppa likes to tease Yujia since she's a giraffe XD Kidding, anyways, Taeil oppa is the guy who loves to do cheer leading & we found it cute

MESSAGE
TL: Hyoshin-ah, though our heights are not growing, I hope you grow as an artist & as a person too. You did well. You don't suck at your job
HS: Taeil-oppa, I hope you win on music shows soon

SAEYOON & JAEHYUN

MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT IN HIGH SCHOOL
SY: Jaehyun? You thought he can't do embarrassing because he is handsome? No~~~
JH: Ya-Saeyoon~~~~~
SY: So here's the tea, back in high school, he tried to spell his name in English using his butt then our teacher
JH: /covers his face/
SY: You want some tea about him? I will talk to you next time /laughs/
JH: Well, Saeyoon, back in high school, she accidentally kicked me on the balls
SY: Sorry
JH: It's okay Saeyoon, you don't do that on purpose

ON SHOWING OFF THEIR BODIES
JH: Whether I'm her boyfriend or not, I don't mind Saeyoon wearing revealing outfits. She's an adult now. I'm warning you all, please don't catcall women in general
SY: I'm not fazed with Jaehyun's abs. I should step up my workout routine too. I'm very inspired by the members to workout though I'm a bit lazy
JH: But the most important thing is we improve ourselves as we grow older
SY: True True...

HIGH SCHOOL NEVER ENDS
JH: Sometimes, when I got time, we eat in restaurants where we used to eat in high school
SY: Dispatch please, have mercy on us, we have a lot of companions when we're eating out. You can go now
JH: It's nice to see our former classmates who became better people & we see each other we just laugh about our memories

MESSAGE
JH: Saeyoon, thank you for being my friend. You're not pretty Kidding You're cool
SY: Jaehyun, keep on being you. If someone broke your heart, I'm gonna throw hands. Also, keep on being an amazing man as always

YUJIA & JOHNNY

BEING FOREIGN K-POP IDOLS
JN: I have to admit that it's really hard to be far away from home to be an idol
YJ: I have to agree with you. Then people will just mock us if we make a mistake. That's the worst thing of being an idol. I'm very happy for you that you come home to Chicago for your concert
JN: Yeah, I cry so hard. Have you ever went back to China after debut?
YJ: Yes, but not with the members I want to bring my unnies to my home country
JN: Yujia, you're lucky that you have supportive unnies while we can't mention our Chinese members
YJ: I know them too but let's not name drop them for now because you know
JN: Why our company is like that? Hmm

ON BEING OUT OF EACH OTHER'S LEAGUE
YJ: Many netizens said that NCT 127 sunbaenims should collaborate with popular girl groups & not us. Yes, they really point fingers at us, Star Beam. I mean, not everyone was given a chance to collaborate with them. I feel pretty bad thanks to that comment
JN: Aww... you're actually beautiful & talented
YJ: Well the reason is, they said that NCT 127 is too good to be our collaborator & they are SM's next big bet to global stardom, you know a lot of connections from the music industry, meanwhile us, we have limited sources to pull off these promotions that's why we only have music festivals & busking shows aside from comebacks. I mean there will be the day that we will achieve those things but not now
JN: Well, Star Beam is very pretty in real life. They are like princesses from the visuals & even their onstage demeanor. I was so intimidated by them like they are so regal. But once we got to know these girls, they're so funny & lovable.
YJ: So who do you like the most?
JN: Umm... next question please

ALWAYS GOT YOUR BACK
YJ: I'm gonna be honest that we don't need anyone to protect us from perverts since we know how to self defense even before that controversy
JN: I'm very genuinely concerned to them so, everytime we will have the same schedule, we text them if they come to their hotel rooms safely
YJ: Hey, you don't have to. None of us are dating
JN: At least there's someone who cares for you
YJ: Okay

MESSAGE
JN: Yujia, I know you doubt yourself sometimes but you know, you are one of the best centers I ever know (also Taeyong of course). Don't think that you're out of our league. Always remember not to be hard on yourself & I hope you realize it
YJ: Johnny oppa, I'm very grateful to meet you & I hope you will found the one who will love you so much. Thank you for being there for us. I hope we can cherish our memories together. No matter how time changes, you will treat us the same

RYUNA X TAEYONG

BEING THE LEADER
TY: Since NCT is a very diverse group, it's kinda hard to deal with many members especially with diverse backgrounds so we try to compromise
RN: My group is just one third of your group & they're pretty manageable except the maknae line /laugh/
TY: Ah... I get nervous when some Dreamies got into a fight
RN: Don't worry oppa, they're preparing for the rooftop fight
TY: I know. So how do you deal with those petty arguments?
RN: I just let them explain their sides in private & compromise while it's still small. We don't need to publicize our argument

ANIMAL LOVERS
TY: Everyone knows that I love animals & watching animal vids calms me down
RN: Our dorm is a pet friendly home like Jeonah has her own dogs & Saeyoon's cats. If Jeonah has a schedule overseas, she will just entrust to her brother who is studying in Seoul for university. So does Saeyoon to her family since she's from Seoul. Can you tell Ruby that get well soon?
TY: Sure. Thank you
RN: Also, TMI, I used to lived in a farm in Daegu before debut
TY: Oh my God~~~
RN: Back then, I don't get to play gadgets but I'm not good in climbing trees /laughs/ But one day, I will take you to the farm since animals make you happy
TY: Ya! What are you doing? /laughs/

NEVER GIVE UP
TY: Aside from being leaders & 95 liners, we are also known for being bad dancers at first
RN: Yes, before joining Star Beam, I have no experience at dancing at all. I'm more of singing
TY: I heard that you used to do jazz
RN: Yes, I sing a lot of jazz before I shifted to K-pop where we are right now
TY: You know, I was a very bad dancer to the point that my dance teacher gave up on me
RN: Back then, Hyoshin & Chloe very patient to teach me how to dance. Hello, Hyo is our main vocalist how could she dance like that?
TY: In our group, it's Jaehyun, Jaehyun & Renjun who are lead vocalists who can dance (based on their position)
RN: Good thing we don't give up on our hopeless two feet selves, right?
TY: Right. Actually you dance pretty well
RN: Wow hahahaha

MESSAGE
TY: Ryuna, thank you for making me comfortable in this shoot thanks to your no non-sense personality & thank you for making me laugh when we're together. I hope you have a great day
RN: Hi Taeyong! Thank you for letting me know the real you, not the visual king you. Thank you for being real & I hope you will get the love that you deserve

|-Chloe x Yuta

OUR FIRST MEETING
YT: We almost have a same comeback time before in 2017 (Limitless & Whatever era in January & Cherry Bomb & Mermaid Princess era in June)
CL: Yup
YT: So we always bump into each other. Since debut, they will give us their albums and they were like, /imitates Star Beam's girly soft voice & bows/ Annyeonghaseyo, Star Beam imnida. Please take care of us~~~
CL: We try not to get close with NCT 127 sunbaenim since at first we didn't think that we will be friends /laughs/. It's not that we're snobs, we are just trying to adjust our idol life at that time. We only greet our sunbaes as a sign of respect & nothing else

WHAT IS LIKE TO BE FRIENDS
YT: Star Beam is a girl group who has the same age as us (Both groups have 95-98 liners) & they're so funny & loud. I thought they are just shy and trying hard to be cute
CL: We only show our true selves when we're with our friends & to our fans
YT: Chloe is a better basketball player than Johnny
CL: What the /laughs/
YT: Also, aside from being funny, Star Beam doesn't mind in getting their hands dirty
CL: Hello, we just clean afterwards /laughs/

THE COMEBACK D-DAY
CL: Yuta oppa, our respective comebacks are said to be a hot topic just because we came back on the same day
YT: During the behind the scenes, we just laugh at each others & make fun of our special MCs, Johnny & Yujia. This time, the girls really laughed loudly instead of the soft voice 2 years ago
CL: We ruined our image so /bows/ Sorry
YT: It's okay. I can say that these girls improved a lot and they become prettier by day
CL: Aniyaaaaaa~~~~ /covers her face/ And you did well too~~~

MESSAGE
YT: Kuroe, thank you for befriending us though many will envy you because you're amazing . I hope you will stay humble
CL: Yuta-nisan, even if you're annoying sometimes, thank you for taking care of us even if we don't ask to. I only wish for the best of our groups! Ganbatte!!!!!

|-Chaehee x Doyoung x Jungwoo

ISAC BE LIKE
CH: Many people said that ISAC is a place where many idols date secretly. Do you agree?
DY: No~~~~
JW: No~~~~
CH: It's a NO for me because I think ISAC is a place where we, Star Beam bond with our fans
DY: People called you 'ISAC's winking goddess'
CH: Honestly, I really don't know why I wink a lot. Maybe because, I'm so used to wink in music shows HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
JW: Chaehee Noona is actually a legit athlete
CH: Yes, I used to play sports & actually, Jeonah & I are in the same team before until now since we have ISAC

FOOD FIGHTER
DY: Since Jungwoo is the "Food Fighter" of NCT 127, who is the food fighter of Star Beam?
CH: It's Hyoshin. Because she eats a lot and she is a good cook actually
JW: Do you have a memory where you get drunk?
CH: Yes... when we go to Manila, I just dancing near the pool & the members tried to stop me to go to the pool HAHAHAHAHA. I guess your drunken moment is caught on cam, Jungwoo
JW: Yeah... these members love to film us while drunk & send it to our group chat
CH: Did the Dreamies saw that drunk antics on vid you sent on your group chat?
JW: Sadly yes HAHAHAHAHA

NEW IMPRESSIONS
JW: Chaehee noona is actually nice but scary
CH: Jungwoo-ssi is actually pretty funny & he & Yujia get along well
DY: It seems that these two talk more than I do HAHAHA

MESSAGE
DY: Chaehee-ssi, you did well on your comeback
JW: Chaehee-noona, thank you taking care of us, the maknae line
CH: Jungwoo & Doyoung, Let's do our best together in our promotions, Fighting

|-Jeonah x Mark x Haechan

NOONA NEOMU YEPPEO ERR SIWONHAN (Noona, you're cool)
MK: If we say Star Beam, noonas are cool, we mean it
HC: They are very nice yet they want to play arm wrestling with us hahahahahaha
JA: I think people will tell that we, Star Beam, are their dream noonas it's because, we're not too girly off-stage & maybe the fact that majority of us have brothers. Just right amount of girliness hehehehe

LET'S GET CREATIVE
JA: I wrote a lot in our songs & I'm very inspired by what I see, read, and heard. Sometimes, I get inspired by the people I know personally
MK: So you mean, you try to put yourself in others' shoes?
JA: Yeah. Sometimes but mostly. I wrote with my own experience
MK: Among the girls, Jeonah-noona has the mature vibe, I think
JA: Excuse me, I'm part of the maknae line hehehehe. Aside from writing songs, I try to do freestyle dance these days
(Saeyoon from the background: TRUE FACTS!!!!!)
HC: Since when you start to freestyle?
JA: When I start to join the group, I used to be a very terrible dancer & a shy girl when it comes to modelling. Netizens will call me out when our shoots released. But then I just tell myself that I will do better next time hehehehehe

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS
HC: Let's be honest, we all miss our hometowns, isn't it?
JA: True. Chaehee unnie & I came from Busan & we're lucky to go home once in a while especially with the Busan One Festival. When we go to our hometowns, we don't book at a hotel, we just sleep together in the house
MK: That's so cute. Do you that every year?
JA: Yeah, since we performed in that festival every year. So how's your time going home to Vancouver?
MK: It's fun
JA: And to you Haechan, would you like to bring your members to Jeju?
HC: Yeah. When time permits. NCT Life PDs, let's have a new season!!!!!

MESSAGE
HC: Jeonah noona, I hope you have fun with a shoot
MK: Jeonah noona, let's collab someday. You are like my big sister
JA: Mark & Haechan, thanks for joining me in this shoot!!! Let's prosper in our own way~~~ Fighting~~~~
