Radio segment begins with ‘Tell Me’

WG: Hi Everybody we are the Wonder Girls!

Host: They said Hi in Mandarin but when I first saw them I actually greeted them in Korean *laughs* Wow we’ve finally get a chance to meet the Wonder Girls! We really welcome you to our radio program. They arrived in Taiwan today, I wonder how they feel? Shall we first allow them to say hi individually?

*Ye Eun introduces herself followed by Sunye, Hye Lim, Sohee and Yoobin*

Host: I’ve actually been told that some of the members can speak mandarin well. Hye Lim, you should be able to speak mandarin quite well?

Hye Lim: Ah~ my mandarin is..alright…I guess

Host: *Impressed* Not bad at all! or.. You can speak in cantonese?

Hye Lim: Oh Yes! You can speak it too?

Host: Yeah I speak a little. *all laughs* This is their new member Hye Lim. Im not bad right?

Hye Lim: Yeah not bad.

Host: I can speak Cantonese with you.

Hye Lim: *laughs* Ok..

Host (to translator): If we do that you will have a hard time translating!

Host: Hye Lim, since you are a new member, it is slightly tougher for you?

Hye Lim (in cantonese): A little but really its alright (I’m ok)

Host (to translator): We will still have to trouble you to translate for the other members. *repeats question and answer in mandarin for translator*

*Sunye hears then translator and responds in Mandarin* : Right, right…

Host: I know Sunye must be able to speak Mandarin because she is responding in Mandarin. So Sunye, how is your mandarin is it OK?

Sunye: err, a little.. *laugh*

*Host requests for Sunye to speak more in Mandarin*
There is a discussion on what she should say.

Translator: She can recite a poem. Can she recite it now?

Host: Recite a poem? Wow sure sure sure! Round of applause to welcome Sunye who is going to recite a poem.

Translator: She learnt it when she was young

Host: When she was young? ok.

*Poem reciting in progress* *Sunye lets out a big laugh when she is done*

Host: Wow thats impressive but.. did you guys understand what she was reciting? Does anyone know this poem? Because we are not particularly familiar with such poems oursleves.

Translator: She heard that the poet that wrote this particular poem is very famous.

Host: Someone from the Tang dynasty?

Translator:
Sunye said that they are a little tired today because they didn’t get to sleep last night.
The 5 princesses didn’t get sleep last night because they has some filming/recording to do.
Aww it must be hard on you guys but you all still look XX today

The Taiwan fans make them feel really touched.

-Playing “So Hot”-

Host:Wonder girls already knew that there’s a lot of fan in Taiwan.
YeEun: In Korea, we could not feel the warm-heartness of our fans until we arrive at Taiwan
Host: Everyone knows how to sing it, do you wish to not to sing Nobody today?
SunYe: It’ll feel strange, but we’re grateful as we are able to interact with people because of this song.
YeEun: It had been two years since we started singing Nobody.Although we will get tired of it, the new album is ready.
Host: Aren’t bored of singing korean version of Nobody after so long, is there any worries about the chinese version?
SoHee: There aren’t much difference, but we are afraid that we didn’t pronounce it correctly.

Host: Would you worry about singing 3 songs in chinese?
Yubin: We were nervous at the start, but we believe in the members, so we sang together. We knew that Nobody is hot in Taiwan, so we feel happy to sing it.
Host: Can I ask, how many times would you ( girls ) sing Nobody a day?
SunYe: About 13 times a day…

Host: Have you seen Philippine’s prison version of Nobody?

WG:Yes, we were shocked.

Host: Hope to see Wonder Girls in good health ( Korean)

WG: Thank You ( Korean)

Host: Are you giving the fans in Taiwan any fans, any plans?

SoHee: We have prepared an autograph session, and singing the three hit songs there.

Host: Planned to organise a concert in Taiwan?

SunYe: We wished, but we are in the U.S tour for June, probably ending in August. We’ll then visit countries in Asia that we hadn’t been in before.

Host: Are you very happy that the whole world knows about Wonder Girls?
SunYe: We’re very happy to enter U.S. but not only U.S, but the Asia countries know about Wonder Girls, we are very grateful.

Yubin: Had been hoping to come to Taiwan. We’re very happy to meet the fans, we would definitely organise a concert in Taiwan if there’s a chance.
