00:00You
00:30You
01:00You
01:30You
01:34Hello
01:37So before we introduce our guests for today
01:41We want to thank our pepsters that you know when you're coming now my reach on 1 million subscriber mark so you too
01:48Congratulations
01:51Pepsters and of course
01:53Yeah
01:53I'm gonna continue to follow all our social media accounts, the official accounts only, because we don't want fake news to spread on social media
02:01Very true, because pepsters don't like fake news, right?
02:05So moving forward, we will be joined by a very exciting team. How exciting?
02:10Super exciting!
02:13Because they are part of exciting waterbomb festival for its Manila leg
02:18Let's all welcome FIPAP boy group Believe and Zeyla
02:28Welcome to peplive guys
02:30This is your first time here at peplive?
02:32Yes
02:34Perfect, I hope you come back next time
02:36Yes, definitely
02:38Actually, we can do it later
02:40Believe!
02:42Later
02:44So how was your experience in the industry?
02:46Let's start from there
02:48So, as Believe
02:50Actually, when we debuted
02:52We appreciated that there are more people in people idol groups
02:58So, despite of the difficulties
03:00Of course, because
03:02You're not that stabilized
03:04When you say people idol group
03:06Right?
03:08Either compared to K-pop or anything
03:10But when we debuted, it was very exciting for us
03:12Because we showed
03:15We gave them the strength
03:17The people who followed us
03:19It's not that hard
03:21Or embarrassing
03:23To be a people idol group
03:25Correct, a lot of people were inspired
03:27To share their talents
03:29It's like our name, Believe
03:31Because we gave them trust
03:33Correct, believe in yourself
03:35Perfect, how about you Zeyla?
03:37I want to hear you say
03:39It's like you prepared me for this
03:41It's such a wonderful experience
03:43For me, because I started in the US
03:45As an independent artist
03:47And then, I took a vacation here
03:49Tried to audition
03:51And I got in
03:53Being part of this growing
03:55P-pop community
03:57Is such an honor
03:59For me
04:01Because there's a lot of P-pop now
04:03And I'm one of them
04:05So, I'm proud
04:07It's true, you're proud that a lot of people
04:09Inspired you
04:11Speaking of, who inspired you?
04:13In music?
04:15For me, it's Olivia Rodrigo
04:17Internationally
04:19And then, it's Ate Sara G
04:21Here in the Philippines
04:23Of course
04:25Go ahead
04:27I'm just kidding
04:29You already know
04:31Correct
04:33I want to hear J-Max
04:35Me
04:37He's the first one
04:39Me
04:41My inspiration for music
04:43Is Gary V
04:45Because when I was a kid
04:49It's a hot tone
04:51Because when I was a kid
04:53My grandpa used to play that
04:55And lately
04:57My inspiration is SB19
04:59The Kings
05:03Speaking of music
05:05I saw in the lyrics
05:08In your debut single
05:10You said
05:12You experienced everything
05:14And you did it
05:16In your journey as a P-pop idol
05:18What experience would you call
05:20Hard and hard
05:22Hard and hard
05:24Is this individual?
05:26Individual
05:28We have three lives
05:30It's like we're not singing
05:32I'm just kidding
05:34Answer
05:36What's Olivia's answer?
05:42Maybe
05:44Our biggest struggles
05:46Before becoming an idol
05:48Maybe the trainee days
05:50Because
05:52We're still getting used to each other
05:54And then
05:56We're still adjusting
05:58To each other
06:00Some of us
06:02Before we're exposed to the P-pop industry
06:04We have no idea
06:06How P-pop works
06:08From the very beginning
06:10That's where we learn
06:12How P-pop works
06:14And how we can improve
06:16As an idol
06:20That's it
06:22So that's the hard part
06:24What's the hard part?
06:26So many
06:28Because of that, give me five
06:30Number one
06:32Number one
06:34When we debuted
06:36Because that's the fruit
06:38Of our hard works
06:40And then
06:42I'm just kidding, give me five
06:44I'm really willing to give you five
06:46But if you can do it
06:48I thought it was a perfect score
06:50Maybe that's it
06:52When we were able to do guestings
06:54With different networks
06:56TV guestings
06:58And now
07:01Because
07:03Since first ever
07:05I'm going to perform for
07:07Waterbomb
07:09Waterbomb in Manila
07:11So we're really happy
07:13Those are the things
07:15That you worked hard for
07:17Yes
07:19But what he said
07:21Is that
07:23Expectation vs reality
07:25In the music industry
07:27What's your expectation
07:29What's your reality
07:31Before you enter the industry
07:33What's your expectation
07:35And when you enter
07:37This is your reality
07:39Maybe my expectation
07:41I thought I'll just dance
07:43Sing
07:45But there are trainings
07:47That we didn't think
07:49That's what's going to happen
07:51That's it
07:53It's really hard
07:55I'll just add
07:57That's my expectation
07:59We thought
08:01Dance, event, perform, sing
08:03But behind the camera
08:05Or behind the unseen people
08:07Sometimes we become part
08:09Of a collaborative work
08:11For example in music
08:13Sometimes
08:15Our members are part
08:17In composing the song
08:19From production
08:21From filming
08:23Sometimes we thought
08:25If we're given an event
08:27We'll perform
08:29But sometimes
08:31It's behind the camera
08:33We're part of the process
08:35You enjoyed it and it's challenging
08:37Yes
08:39It's still about the message
08:41Of your singles
08:43From Believe to Say What You Wanna Say
08:45And to Zaynana 101
08:47Is it right?
08:49Your song
08:51Is about what other people say
08:54About you
08:56What's your worst experience
08:58With your bashers?
09:00What's the worst thing
09:02That you heard
09:04Against you?
09:06Maybe
09:08When we compare
09:10Our debut single
09:12The song
09:14Of SB19
09:16That's something
09:18That I didn't
09:20Take as
09:22Negative
09:24Because
09:26Music
09:28It's abroad
09:32It's not
09:34Just one thing
09:36Music is
09:38The same
09:40There are
09:42Similarities
09:44In every song
09:46There are inspirations
09:48But
09:50Our song has
09:52It's own structure
09:54It's own attack
09:56It's own
09:58How do you face
10:00Bashers or negative comments?
10:02Actually
10:04What Rafael mentioned
10:06Was one of the things
10:08That caught our attention
10:10Because
10:12It's inevitable
10:14Whether it's good or bad
10:16One thing we do
10:18Together with Zeyla
10:20We read it
10:22But we get tripped
10:24Because those bashers
10:26Bashed us
10:28Before we know it
10:30Do you reply?
10:32We don't reply
10:34We just look at them
10:36Or sometimes we tag them
10:38And our team
10:40Of course
10:42It's also a public feedback
10:44So it's very important
10:46If we can still improve
10:48We take it positively
10:50But negative comments
10:52Or irrelevant
10:54We don't do anything
10:56We just laugh at them
10:58You just choose
11:00The comments that you think
11:02Are constructive
11:04There are a lot of constructive comments
11:06So
11:08We take it as a lesson
11:10What about Zeyla?
11:12What are the
11:15Bashers that you heard or saw?
11:17Oh my gosh
11:19They are the bashers
11:21Oh my gosh
11:23I don't have bashers
11:25But seriously
11:27I don't have
11:29Maybe I'm just not that famous
11:31I don't have bashers
11:33But more on comments
11:35From acquaintances
11:37And more on myself
11:39Because I bash myself
11:41It's hard to fight
11:43It's true
11:49I feel like
11:51My talents
11:53Is not enough
11:55I always compete
11:57With myself
11:59I always want to be better
12:01The better version of yourself
12:03That's why
12:05My song is about
12:07Women empowerment
12:09Not just women
12:11It's empowerment
12:13Because
12:15I want to be a good role model
12:17And what's important
12:19Is growth
12:21That's where growth happens
12:23In your hardships
12:25Because your time will come
12:27The perfect time for you
12:29Correct
12:31Let's not talk about the bashers
12:33Let's talk about the bashers
12:35Our next question is
12:37Your unforgettable experience
12:39Your performances
12:41What's your unforgettable performance?
12:51I feel like
12:53My unforgettable experience
12:55Will happen
12:59That's why I don't want to answer
13:01Let's just go back
13:03Next week
13:06What's this?
13:08It's a story
13:10So that we can answer
13:12Manila Bombayla
13:14Like that
13:16We'll talk about that later
13:18The Waterbong Festival is really exciting
13:20But this
13:22I also want to know
13:24What's the difference you can give
13:26That other
13:28P-POP idols
13:30P-POP groups
13:32What's the difference they gave
13:34What do you think?
13:36Maybe
13:38If
13:40Let's think about the question
13:42It's about the musicality of the group
13:44So each one of us has
13:46Their own personality
13:48Like there's cutesy
13:50There's hot
13:52We have that kind of personality
13:54Even when we listen to music
13:56We have our own taste
13:58So for me
14:00What we can share
14:02Is our ideas that we combined
14:04If we have that
14:06We can create new music
14:08Or new ideas
14:10New style
14:12So that's what we have
14:14Of course there are others
14:16But like I said
14:18We have different styles
14:20So with that
14:22You can create fresh music
14:24That can inspire
14:26Other people
14:28Zela, what about you?
14:30What can you offer?
14:32What's different?
14:34For me, all of her personality
14:36I have
14:38I love the confidence
14:40Sometimes she's funny
14:42Sometimes
14:44No, I'm just kidding
14:46There are only a few P-POP soloists
14:48In the P-POP community
14:50And there are only a few girls
14:52And almost everything
14:54That I do
14:56I'm not that good
14:59Everyone can do
15:01You're good
15:03There you go, we're good
15:05There you go
15:09She's really lost
15:11You're the answer for me
15:15I'm really lost
15:19She's really lost
15:21But I get what you're trying to say
15:23You have a lot of idols
15:25In the P-POP scene
15:27You have your own flavors
15:29Yes
15:31I'm more of a
15:33Badass concept
15:35I'm more of an empowerment
15:37And not everyone's doing that
15:39In soloists
15:41And
15:45There's a lot going on
15:47There's a lot
15:49Basher
15:51She's really lost
15:53These are the bashers
15:55I'm telling the truth
15:57They're bullies
15:59It's like J-Mack wants to say something
16:01J-Mack
16:03All of a sudden
16:09What do you feel when you're different
16:11From other P-POP members
16:13Actually
16:15It's the same for Carlo
16:17Each one of us has
16:19Our own personality
16:21And characteristics
16:23Whenever we create a song
16:25We all have
16:27A say
16:29An input
16:31And also
16:33Each one of us
16:35Creates something new
16:37And fresh music
16:39That people will listen to
16:43Figuratively speaking
16:45Because we don't want to be on the competitive side
16:47This is what Bilib gives
16:49Compared to the other groups
16:52We have a goal
16:54And maybe it's just clarity
16:56Because P-POP idol group
16:58Is a community
17:00That we support
17:02So rather than
17:04Your focus is edge
17:06We have to exist
17:08For the next generation
17:10That's not
17:12Weak inside
17:14So for Bilib
17:16Actually rather than the comparison
17:18Or difference
17:20It's a story
17:22Story of
17:24Believing
17:26Correct
17:28Each one of you has something to offer
17:30And there's space for everyone
17:32It's a big industry
17:34There's always space on top
17:36Correct
17:38You can't open up
17:40You can rise up together
17:42That's the attitude
17:44Hashtag
17:46P-POP Rise
17:48You mentioned the waterbomb festival
17:50What should we look forward to?
17:56What's the waterbomb?
17:58You have 5 seconds
18:00To answer the question
18:02The waterbomb
18:04Is a festival
18:06And it's being held in Korea
18:08But recently they had a tour
18:10Like a world tour
18:12In 2024 they had a tour
18:14In Japan, Singapore
18:16Jakarta
18:18They went to a lot of countries
18:20But now
18:22It's the first time ever
18:24There will be a stop here in Manila
18:26The waterbomb
18:28So we're very honored
18:30And very happy
18:32First honor
18:34First honor
18:36We will represent
18:38Not only P-POP
18:40But the whole OPM
18:42So we're happy to perform here
18:45And it's a big stage
18:47It's a big opportunity
18:49For P-POP
18:51Groups that others can see
18:53And they can see
18:55What we can offer
18:57Exactly
18:59Correct
19:01And with that, let's go straight to our PEP challenge
19:05Okay, our PEP challenge
19:07Is Guilty or Not Guilty
19:09For our first PEP
19:11It's a challenge
19:13Guilty or Not Guilty
19:15Who is
19:17Your target?
19:19Just tell us who
19:21It's them
19:23I think I'm guilty
19:25Guilty
19:27I think I'm guilty
19:29Oh it's him!
19:31Damn it!
19:33Guilty
19:35Since you admitted it
19:37Why?
19:39I don't know
19:41It comes with age
19:45Later on, I heard
19:47He was on his phone, doing reels
19:49Doing facebook reels, tiktok
19:51And when I left the room
19:53He was still watching
19:55The whole time
19:57But he's asleep
19:59He's asleep?
20:01And for example
20:03We have a rehearsal
20:0530 minutes break
20:07And we can see him
20:09Sleeping
20:11It's so annoying
20:13Deep sleeping
20:15FB reels
20:17Who went in without taking a bath
20:19A lot
20:21Admit it
20:23I'm one of them
20:25Who do you want to smell?
20:31Who's guilty?
20:34Who went in without taking a bath
20:36Guilty 1
20:38Guilty 2
20:40Guilty 3
20:42What they do is
20:44They take a bath
20:46Around 11 at night
20:48And the next day, they don't take a bath
20:50I'm the last one
20:52I'm not the last one
20:54Because I took a bath earlier
20:56I'm never
20:58Never
21:00I'm never
21:02I'm never
21:04I never took a bath
21:06Never
21:08He often forgets the steps
21:12Or the lyrics
21:141, 2, 3
21:16Go
21:18Why not Jay?
21:20Were you surprised?
21:22He just said it
21:24No, not me
21:28I'm confident that it's not me
21:30He doesn't forget the steps
21:32But it's different
21:38Do you want a sample?
21:40He doesn't forget the steps
21:42He forgets how he can hurt karma
21:48I have one
21:50Crying because of a TV show
21:52Or a movie
21:54Guilty
21:56Let's share what show it is
21:58Crying
22:00It's not a TV show, but a movie
22:02The movie, Gave of the Fireflies
22:04By Studio Ghibli
22:06I really cried
22:08Tears
22:10Tears
22:12He cried a lot
22:14For me, it's
22:16Lolo and the Kid
22:18Right?
22:24You guys
22:26All the K-dramas I've watched
22:28There's a time
22:30I cried
22:32And it's in one piece
22:34For me, I cried a lot
22:36There's no specific
22:38There's no specific drama
22:40But when I see someone crying
22:42I cry
22:44I cry
22:48Okay, last
22:50What show made you cry?
22:52Game of Thrones
22:55Okay, go ahead
22:57I'll just stay here
23:03Sorry
23:05I'll just stay here and cry
23:07Wait a minute
23:13Just kidding
23:15There's no specific
23:17Usually, when I watch anime
23:19There are
23:21Anime
23:23That's true
23:25The anime he watched
23:27Doraemon, Nobita
23:29It's different
23:31What about Tinkerbell?
23:33Tinkerbell
23:37I can't watch it again
23:39There's a monster
23:41The Beast
23:43I forgot the title
23:45The Beast, he died
23:47Crying
23:49Crying
23:51Crying
23:53Last, guilty or not guilty
23:55Guilty or not guilty
23:57To get scolded
23:59In training
24:01All of us
24:03All of us
24:05So, who's willing
24:07To share the experience
24:09Oh, Clyde
24:11Rafael
24:15Okay, so
24:17That's why I got scolded
24:19Of course, I'll give a mic
24:21To the one who always gets scolded
24:23Who?
24:25Oh, he doesn't want to
24:27We're in pep live
