KARA’s Jiyoung & Gyuri perplexed by the existence of newfangled pay-to-interact service Bubble
With all the hag girl groups making their glorious return, us hag fans get the most relatable content from them, like KARA members Gyuri and Jiyoung being utterly confused by the existence of paid-messaging app Bubble. During Instagram Live streams, both idols were unfamiliar with the app when fans asked them about it, and both also basically said to not bother with that chicanery. When Jiyoung found out about the app through her fans, her first reaction was: “Bubble? Oh~ A messenger app. But why? I’m on the official fancafe a lot, aren’t I? Is it like UFO (an app that used to be similar to Bubble but messages are sent privately to individual fans)? The thing we used to do back in the days? I see, so there’s an app version now. I should ask someone about it. So, I guess it’s like UFO TOWN. Okay. I need to check, though. To see if it’s worth it.“But when she found out that the app wasn’t free, Jiyoung responded: “What? You have to pay for it? You all? Then, I don’t want to do it. Why pay? I can just [communicate] here like this.” Jiyoung was most upfront, being confused by it and saying she can just do streams like she was on Instagram. (버블) 돈내고하는거야 그대들이? 그럼 난 안 하고 싶은데? 뭘 돈을 내! 여기서 이렇게 하면 되지 그치?
