"T-Hi! Again."

Eunbyul sleepily rubbed her eyes, blankly looking at the camera as she wondered what to do. "Apparently, I had like 30 minutes more of footage, so Manager-oppa said to put it to good use," she stated, explaining why she was on the self-camera again. "I don't even remember what I did yesterday. What did I do?" She stared at the camera for a minute, as if it would answer her question.

"Let's just move on. If I repeat anything, the editors can cut it out." She smiled, running her fingers through her hair. "I shall meet you guys after I'm done changing, so see you later!"

Eunbyul paused the recording, sighing to herself as she got on with her morning routine. She could hear 'Beautiful Beautiful' by ONF playing loudly from the other room, and she could only assume that either Haruto or Yoshi had woken up as well.

She brushed her teeth and did her skincare along to the song, still sleepy even though she had aggressively danced in her room to get rid of her sleep. After changing into her clothes and some light makeup, she turned the camera back on, showing her outfit through her full-length mirror in her room.

"This is my outfit for the day," she stated, laughing to herself. "I don't know if you'll see Doyoung-oppa before or after me, but we actually coordinated our outfits. Whenever he sends me a picture of his outfit the night before, I find something to match."

Eunbyul struck a few poses before walking out the door, greeting her members as she did. "Good morning, Yoshi-kun. Good morning, Haru-kun. Are the others out?" She inquired in Japanese, using the language more to test her fluency.

"Morning. Hyunsuk-hyung went to the studio," Haruto answered, ruffling the younger's hair as he went to the kitchen to grab something to eat.

"Junkyu too," Yoshi added, grabbing his jacket off the table. "Are you going to the company? Good morning, by the way." Eunbyul nodded, tagging along with the older, as he was also on his way to their company.

The duo commuted to their company, with Eunbyul recording small parts of it as she didn't want to trouble the people around her with her vlogging. As soon as they reached the company, she turned the camera on, recording herself as she made her way to their practice room.

"I have vocal training today, so I will just practice a little before going to that. And I have a few exams after that, so you guys might see that as well." Eunbyul quickly made her way towards the practice room, entering it after knocking, just in case anyone was inside.

The room was empty, and Eunbyul placed the camera on the table. So it gave a view of everything she did. She grabbed the mic as she played a karaoke on the computer, placing her phone right next to the camera so she could record her singing and monitor it later.

"Let's geddit!" She cheered to herself as she stood in front of the camera, smiling as the song started. Her practice song was DUSK TILL DAWN by Zayn and Sia, which was recommended by her vocal trainer since she had the deep voice and high-pitched range to execute the song. "I also have to do a Korean song to check my pronunciation," she added after she practiced the previous song twice, moving to the other.

She ran her fingers through her hair as her other hand played with the mic, waiting for the instrumental to play. CELEBRITY by IU played, and Eunbyul sang along while looking at the camera, turning towards the computer occasionally to read the lyrics.

"Now, I shall monitor my singing and then head for vocal training. The next time I see you guys, it's either during my exam or for lunch," Eunbyul stated, waving at the camera before turning it off, grimacing as she had fifteen minutes of memory left to record.

Vlogging is hard when it's just you.

After heavily monitoring her own singing, Eunbyul went for two more rounds of practicing before heading to their vocal trainer, practicing with him again. She got better feedback than she did last time, which made her happy, but she knew she still had to work hard.

Just as Eunbyul went to call her manager, wanting to ask him if she could record herself during class, he called her, informing they canceled her classes. Now that would've been great, if she didn't have to cover the lesson by herself. Because she sucked at self-studying.

Fortunately enough, Jeongwoo came back from his practice, offering to help the youngest study the lesson. As much as the two argued normally, they were calmer — and nicer — when they were studying together.

"Oh, I learnt this lesson last year. I can teach you this."

"Obviously you learnt this last year, you are a year older than me, Jeongwoo-oppa."

Okay, so when I said nicer, I meant nicer than usual. Not the nicest.

Eunbyul set up her camera, deciding to end the footage with their fans, seeing her struggle with the Korean language for fifteen minutes.

"Come on, it's the word 'plan'. Gyehoek!" Jeongwoo repeated the same word Eunbyul had been twisting her tongue for the past two minutes. "It's an easy word."

"It isn't easy! This word is even pronounced the way it's spelt in English!" Eunbyul protested, frowning as she gestured the male to repeat the word again. "Gyehoek. Is that right?"

"Better than last time."

"I'll take that."

Jeongwoo raised his brows as he saw the next word, wondering why it was even on the list. "Why is the word 'people' here? Everyone can pronounce saram, it's easy." He shrugged, shaking his head as he saw other easy words on the list of difficult Korean words.

"Of course, it's easy for you. Not everyone is born and raised in Korea or even fluent in the language like you." Eunbyul raised her hand, flicking the male on the forehead as she felt annoyed at the fluent Korean speaker.

"But you are half-Korean. What are you saying?" Jeongwoo retaliated, flicking back the youngest with a scowl on his face.

Eunbyul kept a blank look on her face, quickly raising her hand as she flicked Jeongwoo twice. "That won't stop me from using my foreigner card," she retorted, moving away from the older as he stood up. "Okay, okay. Let me end this before you attack me," she added, raising her hands in surrender.

"Okay."

"That's all for today! See you guys next time on T-MAP! Like, subscribe and turn on the notifications!" Eunbyul smiled at the camera, startled when Jeongwoo crouched near her, saying their goodbyes together.

"T-Bye!"

Eunbyul wasn't able to turn off the camera before running away, so the editors were surprised to see a minute's footage of the Tom and Jerry duo hitting each other with pillows, bursting into laughter right before the memory card ended, putting an end to the footage — and hopefully the fight.

Until next time, TREASURE MAKERS!
