✨(ALL SUB) CORTIS WEVERSE LIVE 🥳😍💗(10.14.26) BDAY!!! HAPPY JAMES DAY;) 🎂 #weverselive #cortis

Birthday Live

James celebrates his birthday in a decorated practice room, greeting fans after a long break from live broadcasts. After wrestling with the speaker connection and music setup, he settles in with a cake and explains why this birthday feels different.

Birthday Video

James talks about a short birthday video he planned and edited himself. What began as a small idea grew into a project with tight time and budget limits, fake blood, carefully chosen outfits, and deliberately composed shots. He says the details are intentional, but he’d rather let viewers interpret the video for themselves than explain every meaning.

He hopes the video can kick off a birthday-project tradition that gives each member more room to show their personality and creative vision.

Childhood Favorites

The chat turns nostalgic as James reminisces about watching TLC and reality shows such as Hell’s Kitchen, MasterChef, and Kitchen Nightmares, along with cartoons including SpongeBob, Jimmy Neutron, and Danny Phantom.

He also recalls playing Jetpack Joyride at the Apple Store as a kid and jokes about being so impatient that he would keep asking, “What, what, what?” before anyone could answer. He postpones a promised tier list of childhood favorites for another time.

Language and Closing Message

Throughout the live, James laughs about how tangled his Korean has become after speaking so much English. He jokes that his accent can switch between American and Australian—“like Tom Holland.”

He wraps up by thanking fans for the birthday wishes and encouraging everyone to spread kindness and positivity, whether it’s his birthday or not.
