IVE appeared together on today's (28th) broadcast of "Mezamashi TV" and conducted interviews. IVE, who appeared on the entertainment pick-up segment of the show, received a lesson in Kansai dialect from Kyoto-born announcer Moi Tanijiri, "Hurry up and wake up~", and tried using it among the members to lighten the mood. When asked about the heartwarming exchange, "Are you a late riser?" Ray replied, "Not at all. Yujin is more of a late riser." Yujin responded in a relaxed tone, "No, I'm an early riser," with a smile. Afterwards, IVE collectively performed "Hurry up and wake up~" again. They charmed the viewers with slightly grumpy expressions and pointing poses as if waking up someone actually sleeping. In the interview, there was also a segment where the members answered questions written on cards. Each member read out the question in Japanese and answered politely in Japanese. The youngest member, Iso, holding a question card asking "Where do you want to go in Japan?" said, "I want to go to hot springs," and cutely added, "I want to go with the IVE sisters." The question to Japanese member Ray was, "If you could use magic, what would you do?" To this, she replied, "I love strawberries, so I want to be able to eat them whenever I want by saying 'Come out, strawberries!' and the members chimed in, "That's a good idea!" Next, Wonyoung was asked, "Teach us how to take cute selfies," and she demonstrated the "flower pose" while holding a smartphone. The oldest member, Gaeul, also showcased a pose by making a fist in front of her chin, saying, "I'm Gaeul Peace. I made this." Ray added, "Gaeul's character is a squirrel, so she's representing an acorn with this." Ray's recommended pose is the ribbon pose, making two circles with her hands. The other members also showed the ribbon pose following Ray. In addition, they discussed the key points of the choreography for their new song "HEYA," making the interview full of IVE's charm.
