    Honestly so proud of Maya, she’s the second youngest in the group yet has taken on the role of a de facto mouthpiece for them and she’s honestly representing them so much better than most of would’ve been able to at 18 years old
  • @MegaDSL1814
    I love how Maya's always looking at the girls whenever she's speaking, it's almost like she's trying to convey what everyone thinks and not just her own inputs.
  • @indievos
    I'm really glad that she noticed and emphasized the bond between the girls because it's a big factor for what makes XG so special.
  • @double_pillow2264
    This isn't all about Maya going to an international school but it's about how confident she is when speaking at her current age :)
  • @nickylove4304
    Hinata's smile while looking at Maya talking is so precious she must have been happy and proud of her friend speaking like a leader Their freindship is so sweet💙😊💙
  • @fakytup
    Maya girl. I knew you were fluent in English but to be able to express yourself this well at this young of an age?! KUDOS TO YOU!
  • @culturetechs
    Being the only fluent English speaker in XG must not be that easy, but I’m proud of Maya for being able to speak for the group so simply yet so eloquently! I’ve come across idol interviews and when they’re asked to talk about their music, their answers can sometimes sound generic or scripted (probably because their agencies feed them specific answers already) but I like that Maya just talked so freely hand casually here.
  • Aww Jurin’s raspy lil voice! I can tell they’re tired but Maya shines as their defacto English spokeswoman. She has a big role and handles it beautifully ❤
  • @beethehype
    thank you Brooke and Apple Music for interviewing them, usually idols are asked what’s their favourite food in the country? what do they usually do? and all that stuff that’s on the surface. we appreciate you guys asking them how did they got to contribute and how do they feel like when their creating the songs.. thank you so much 🤌🏻🤌🏻🙇🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♂️
  • @mintblue-zt7ix
    これが日本語のインタビューだとしても18歳でこんな受け答えができるアイドルはとても少ないと思います。 私よりずっと年下だけど、マヤちゃんを本当に尊敬します。
  • @jasonmoo4177
    U can see how Maya gain confidence in handling interviews right now. Someone give her a medal.
  • @iceblue8978
    普段メンバーといるときのマヤちゃんは子供のように無邪気に明るく はしゃいだりして可愛いらしいけど、英語を話すときは とてもしっかりした頼りのある大人の女性だなと思います。
  • @TheLouis1973
    Maya is so well spoken and very mature beyond her age. Love her
  • @Retro-mobb
    The way cocona broke down the story line concept of all these pre releases is amazing like watching a movie, ARRIVAL,EVOLUTION AND EXPLORATION, so “puppet show” means that they are here to CONQUER the planet and I’m here for it I don’t mind that all. Let’s go XG take me to your planet ready to be abducted 🛸👽🐺🔥
  • @whatever3612
    Jurin sounded so tired. She's been my favorite from the start and I think all the traveling is taking it's toll on our precious XG girls. Treat them well and don't overwork them Simon!
  • @lunathemoon64
    Love that the interviewer mentioned how XG is very much a girl-empowerment girl group. You definitely hear it in their lyrics and it's not always about being in love with someone, but rather loving yourself
  • I really love the way Maya looks at her members while speaking. You can feel the sincerity and appreciation.
  • @lexmcdermott2751
    Can we take a second to do some simple math? If they were training for 5-6 years, then these ladies were starting this whole thing when they were 12-17 year old girls. And it seems they haven’t stopped. They deserve the success, it must feel so unreal with all this payoff! Keep climbing, girls!
  • @heartbeat961
    ジュリンさん、喉をいたわって美しい声をまた聴かせてね。身体を大切に💜
  • @supersucks
    Mark my words, they’re gonna be big one day
