On August 12th, a captivating video titled “Surprise street dance in Seongsu (+ Waterbomb BTS & their first watermelon punch)” was uploaded on the popular YouTube channel YouTube Ha Ji Young.

KISS OF LIFE’s Unforgettable Waterbomb Experience
Ha Ji Young, ever the insightful interviewer, immediately cut to the chase, asking the KISS OF LIFE members, “I saw you went to Waterbomb. I’m curious how people who perform on stage are like.” The idols, known for their powerful stage presence, didn’t hold back.
Natty, with her characteristic energy, eagerly shared her perspective. “I really liked the atmosphere of everyone playing together, so since people were playing along in front, I got more excited and just went all out. I started to enjoy it. I didn’t worry about my face and just got wet,” she confessed, perfectly capturing the uninhibited joy of the festival. It seems the Waterbomb experience truly allowed her to let loose and fully immerse herself in the moment, much to the delight of the crowd.

The “Seaweed Hair” Dilemma & On-Stage Surprises
Ha Ji Young then delved into a question many performers and attendees wonder about: “You have to get wet well to look pretty. Is there any way to prevent having seaweed hair?” The common struggle of managing water-soaked hair on stage brought out some relatable honesty from the group. Belle, with a laugh, admitted, “I don’t know how to avoid it,” while Julie, echoing the sentiment, simply stated, “You just have to endure it.” It seems even K-Pop idols can’t escape the inevitable “seaweed hair” look when battling the festival’s relentless water sprays!
Natty also recalled a particularly memorable incident: “I got hit right in the eye. I told them not to spray my face. At first, when I got hit, I said ‘Let’s just enjoy it,’ but after it happened again, our eyes met. They looked embarrassed.” This humorous anecdote highlights the unpredictable nature of Waterbomb and the playful interaction between performers and the water-spraying crew.
Praising a Fellow Waterbomb Warrior
Beyond their own experiences, Natty took a moment to praise a fellow artist and close friend, Lee Young Ji. “I’m Young Ji’s friend, and suddenly she said, ‘Just spray the water.’ She got sprayed more than expected, so I recorded and sent her the video. But she was really amazing,” Natty remarked, admiring Young Ji’s fearless embrace of the water and her incredible stage energy. It’s clear that the camaraderie and mutual admiration among K-Pop stars extend even to the wildest festival stages.
