The first question in the Q&A session was, “who would you choose if you guys could switch your bodies with each other?” Baekhyun (@B_hundred_Hyun) answered that he would not switch his body with anyone for the sake of the members; he made a humorous explanation that he has to keep his body to himself since he has the worst body. Taemin answered that he has been asking Lucas to make a “facial exchange,” because he wanted to have the “typical South-American handsomeness.” Lucas gave a big laugh to the fans by respectfully declining the offer.

Another question asked to the band members was to share a funny behind-the-scenes experience that occurred during the filming of the music video. Baekhyun answered that only his face looks chubby in the video because he was the only one who ate delicious food as much as he wanted, while all the other members were on a diet to show their nicest look.

A fan asked a question through the official account of Twitter Korea to Baekhyun, "what was the unforgettable Tweet or a fan that you met on Twitter?” Baekhyun answered that “some fans told me that they teared up after reading my Tweets, and I think those reactions from the fans are the most memorable to me.
