Video recap (Popular Is It? Season 2, EP. 21)

The episode opens with “Mimiminu” (Minu) acting out a quirky “Mimiminu rhythm” while hyping the “water bomb challenge” location—claiming the rooftop at HIVE is basically a challenge-mecca. He keeps derailing himself with “what do I do now” moments, teasing how his rhythm and even “wake up the sleeping city” energy won’t behave normally.

Fromis_9 returns: the highlight audition

The main guest for the day is fromis_9 members ChaeYoung, Hayoung, and Nagyung, with the show emphasizing it’s their second visit after Season 1’s popular episode.

  • Audition song: They perform “Stay This Way”—with Mimiminu singing along/covering earlier, then appearing as the star of the highlight.
  • Mimiminu is praised for suddenly understanding the song’s flow, especially his expression work and confidence in tricky parts, including rap sections.
  • The audience keeps reacting to how “Mimiminu” performs like he has two souls. Multiple reactions compare him to a Disney character—Moana—based on his vibe and facial expressions.
  • Jokes land around his falsetto ability and “stealing the show” moments. He ends with fireworks-like stage energy.

The second audition: Mimiminu gets funny, cocky, and weirdly poetic

When he returns for the next participant segment, he enters loudly and theatrically, insisting fromis_9 “needs a ninth member.” He asks for poetic improv using a six-line poem format, then leans into a misunderstanding using “Flovers” (instead of what it sounds like), turning it into chaotic, confident comedy.

Interview + crush backstory (and playful tension)

Back in the talk section, Mimiminu quizzes the members:

  • He claims JiWON was his biggest crush because of a live-show shoutout that gave him a “Mimiminu vibe.” The explanation becomes meme-like (“control+c / control+v” and “field trip seniors” jokes), and ChaeYoung reacts with visible irritation.
  • Mimiminu reframes it emotionally: having a crush is better than hurting yourself by pretending you don’t.

Comparing vocals: “DM” vs “Stay This Way” + “Mimi/Minu” lore

There’s an ongoing comedic bit about Mimiminu’s “identity”:

  • He asks Hayoung about his high notes—using “dolphin” comparisons and puppy-like sound jokes.
  • When comparing “DM” vs “Stay This Way,” the members praise “Stay This Way”, partly because his rapping shows a more natural voice.
  • Mimiminu explains his pitch-split personality: higher pitch = Mimi, lower pitch = Minu. He jokes it’s not “Nunu” (explicitly referencing LOL nonsense).

Ongoing gag: teasing the members’ roommate rumor

They get into a “roommates” rumor:

  • Mimiminu pretends to be “investigating” whether Hayoung is being picked on.
  • The conversation turns silly: Hayoung is accused of taking the most comfortable room (the main bedroom) forever, with “boomer” age jokes popping up.
  • The “spoones before eating” complaint becomes a mock justification for bullying as a stress-relief loop—everyone half-argues, then immediately flips back into teasing.

Nagyung international + Hanwha e-sports mention

Nagyung answers questions about her life abroad (Australia and Beijing), with back-and-forth about how long she stayed and how different the “freedom” feels.

Then the show pivots to e-sports:

  • Mimiminu connects her gaming interests to Hanwha e-sports and her LOL play.
  • Nagyung jokes her experience level (almost Iron / Iron), framed like she’s “jealous” she didn’t become a pro gamer.

Hayoung’s “Drop Merge” convenience store game

Hayoung talks about gaming:

  • She plays “Drop Merge”, then jokes about cleaning a convenience store in a game and even having night-shift reality-life details.
  • Mimiminu responds with throat/voice limit jokes and tries to force “dolphin” sounds anyway.

Supersonic comeback + the full “lyrics deconstruction analyzer”

The video shifts into fromis_9’s comeback promotion for “Supersonic”:

  • They explain the timing (August 12th) using the idea that summer is “hotter” even in August, so the song will hit harder then.
  • A long comedic/serious segment follows: Mimiminu “analyzes” “Supersonic” lyrics line-by-line, interpreting everything as a “saving the Flovers” story.

Joke highlights include:

  • Debate over “911 vs 119” (the word choice becomes an absurd argument about nationality and song appropriateness)
  • “Heat rash/sweaty sweaty” wordplay
  • Repeating “Bring it on” as a supposed key meaning

Mimiminu asks them to sing the chorus, and they do—then the segment quickly transitions into choreography lesson time.

Dance lesson: chaotic challenge where Mimiminu tries to teach

Everyone attempts the “Supersonic” choreography:

  • The members demonstrate steps clearly, while Mimiminu is both helpful and hilariously overconfident.
  • His movements go wrong at times—especially with hip direction and timing—leading to repeated “that’s not it” moments and teacher-mode corrections.
  • There’s a “can a man do this?” joke, followed by comedic cycles of failing-laughing before they finally land the “Stay This Way” challenge end reference.

The clip concludes with fromis_9 and Mimiminu signing off, wishing luck on the album and comeback.

Standout jokes / key reactions

  • Mimiminu repeatedly calls himself “in the Mimiminu rhythm,” acting like his choreography and lyrics are unpredictable.
  • Multiple Moana comparisons based on expression and stage vibe.
  • “Mimi vs Minu vs not Nunu (LOL)” identity lore.
  • The roommate rumor bit becomes “age = boomer” jokes and “spoones before eating” being used as the reason for teasing.
  • The “911 vs 119” lyric argument turns into a mini “courtroom” during the lyrics analysis.
  • Dance practice includes hip movement corrections, comedic inability, and encouragement.

Personalities appearing

  • Mimiminu / Minu (host/performer in the episode)
  • fromis_9: ChaeYoung, Hayoung, Nagyung (with JiWON referenced frequently)
