Miyeon and Minnie went on to recount the process of choosing their team name, recalling that ‘Anycolor’ was one of the top contenders. They had considered various options but ultimately decided on incorporating their favorite colors and animals into their name, inspired by their seniors TVXQ. Minnie shared, “I wanted to go with something like TVXQ sunbaenims, using colors and animals we love.

After a moment of hesitation, Minnie finally replied with, “Nicha Yontararak.”This caused Kim Dae-hee to playfully exclaim, “Are you teasing me?”Miyeon confirmed, “That is indeed her real name.”

Kim Dae-hee playfully attempted to pronounce Minnie’s name in a humorous manner, asking, “Is it ‘Nicha Your Car’ and ‘Nicha Your Sound is Yontararak’?” Minnie confirmed, causing everyone to burst into laughter. Kim Dae-hee then acknowledged, “I’ve come across various surnames, but ‘Ni’ is a first,”to which Minnie corrected, “It’s not ‘Ni,’ it’s ‘Yontararak.’”

During the video, Kim Dae-hee inquired about Minnie’s father, asking, “What is his name?”Minnie’s initial response was, “His phone number?”causing a temporary confusion.
