Morning Wars?

Babe u haven’t watched Morning Wars in a while…

I know… I just haven’t had a 24 hr day where I feel like I can binge…

Awwww…

It’s so funny that both Arden Cho and Ejae are engaged…

Are they?!

Yes… they still seem like really down to earth people… it’s kinda cool to be famous behind an animation, don’t u think?

Yeah… they can still walk around and do normal life things… most people won’t recognise them…

Even if they do it’s not like a crazy celebrity worship.

Oh yeah…

It’s like a nice work life balance for an entertainer, don’t u think?!

Hahaha… I dunno… I would love to experience it tho 😍

Ur sick of being famous?

Yesssss… 😭 I want out of this contract! I miss u 🥺❤️

Mmmmm… well… maybe it will come around sooner than you’d expect…

You think so?

I don’t know… I don’t have a crystal ball 🔮

Can u do a tarot reading for me and my bros?

Lol…

I don’t think it will be very accurate…

I think it’s possible ur 12-member group is going to break up into smaller number units… like maybe groups of 3 or 4… and those groups will either be their own new labels or signed under other independent labels… maybe slightly smaller companies… but more creative freedom and work life balance.

Hmmmmm… being an “artist” not an “idol”…

Yeahhhh… that’s what that other youtube girl was talking about…

What did she say?

U’ll never date as an idol. Ur not allowed to. If ur an artist u could date.

Hahahahaha… 😅

I can see that happening under different labels, different contracts…

But some bros want to keep going…

Is it sustainable?

I don’t know?

It would have to be a renewed contract that gives immense flexibility…

Lol… flexibility… 😅

There is no flexibility?

Not really… 😅

Then… I don’t think it’s a good idea…

The only way to get out of it is to self-sabotage. It’s like quiet quitting.

Make a flop album. Then the company drops u for good.

Hahahhahaahhaa…

I don’t see that happening yet tho…

No?

No…

I don’t actually enjoy performing anymore…

Really? Well we can’t tell…

I know… but inside… I’m over it…

Yeah… I know that feeling…

How?

Towards the end of one of my other contracts… I was the same… still had to get on stage every week, more than once a week, and smile and say those scripts but inside I was 1000% OVER IT.

Ahhh… so u do get it…

Of course baby… u’ll never let ur audience see it… even I can’t see it from the vlogs or anything, it’ll never show on camera…

Yeah… … …

I remember curling over my desk and another coworker friend was with me in my office — before I had to go on stage — it’s just like Morning Wars actually — I was like, “I don’t wanna do this anymore…” and it was a very real conversation… but what did I have to do? I still had to get on that stage and say what I had to say. The scripts — I could say with my eyes closed. I could be on autopilot on that stage with what was being said. I was numb to the applause. It didn’t mean anything to me anymore. I was ready to go. Close that chapter. THE END.

And then…?

Oh baby it was at least another 6 months before I really truly left…?

Sigh…

For you I wonder if it’s another 6 YEARS?!

Like u’ve realised this now but it’s gonna be another 6 years?!?!

Until we’re truly living together husband and wife seeing each other 24/7?!?!?!!

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
