[Fawn Diary] Looking Back on Our Group Stream! (Spoilers Ahead)

Hey everyone, Yotsuma~!!

Thank you all so much for tuning in yesterday for the very first group stream on the 烈芝麻 channel!

Today, the day after the group stream, I really wanted to do a proper recap stream, but

I just got back from Taiwan and work had piled up, so I had to let that idea go... bummer.

Instead, I wanted to leave a diary entry about it here!

Heads up — this post contains spoilers,

so if you haven't watched the stream yet, I'd recommend watching it first before reading on!

So, I first came across this format — "What's in the Bag" — through Vogue Japan's YouTube channel.

(Not just the Japan edition either — there's a British one, an Indian one, lots of Vogue editions doing this.)

Getting to see what's inside so many different celebrities' bags gave me this real sense of their private side, the values they hold dear, and honestly it made me feel a lot closer to them (even if "closer" is a stretch, since they're still, well, celebrities).

This format has apparently been around on YouTube for about three years now, but no matter when you watch it, it's always fun — it never feels stale or overdone, which is part of why it's one of my favorite formats.

So I'd been quietly hoping to do this on my own channel someday,

but honestly, doing it together with the team turned out to be so much more fun than if I'd done it solo.

To keep things exciting for stream day, everyone from SODAART who joined kept their bag contents secret from each other right up until we went live.

Everyone sent photos of their stuff over DM beforehand, and honestly, every single item felt so "that's so them!" — it was genuinely touching.

(It wasn't just the items themselves either — even how everyone photographed and arranged their stuff really showed off their personality. Such a colorful cast of characters!)

I'll skip over which specific details felt most "them" for each person since that would be way too much of a spoiler, but let me introduce my own bag, which apparently got a ton of comments calling it "so Japanese" and "sus," lol lol lol.

Starting with the first three items shown as hints.

From left to right:

• An AirTag

• Dental floss

• An Alishan keychain

Personally, I figured people would guess right away just from "ATAMA-san being the only guy → his stuff will look masculine," so I tried to pick gender-neutral items to throw people off a bit —

but apparently it still came across as super Japanese and suspicious. Lol.

The AirTag is mainly so my family doesn't lose track of each other (my husband is absolutely NOT constantly tracking me, I promise! lol),

and the Alishan keychain was a gift from a Taiwanese couple who happened to sit near us on a flight.

Our son is really outgoing, and he'll often smile and chat with whoever's sitting next to or near us on trains and planes — this particular couple chatted with him for a pretty long stretch and even listened to him sing, and when they got off the plane they gave us this as a gift.

Heartwarming moments like this aren't limited to that one trip — honestly, it happens pretty much every single time we're in Taiwan, no exaggeration, and it really makes me feel just how warm and considerate people in Taiwan are.

That leaves the dental floss, which is actually a pretty personal item.

Anyone who watches my streams probably already knows my hands and feet are pretty small, but when I actually measured, my palm came out to about 14cm and my foot size is 20.5cm.

I've had a hard time finding shoes and rings that fit, and it turns out this runs in my teeth too —

my jaw couldn't fit all my teeth, so I had four teeth pulled total (top, bottom, left, right) during my teenage years, and I've since had two wisdom teeth removed as an adult.

So I have fewer teeth than the average adult, and on top of that I got braces to help everything fit together more neatly.

Around the time I got braces, my shoulder tension actually eased up too, and I feel like my singing got easier as well — maybe because my tongue position stabilized?

I remember being amazed that tooth alignment could affect that much.

That whole experience got me really interested in dental health,

so this month I've finally booked my first teeth whitening appointment.

Really looking forward to it!

Anyway, I could talk this much about just three items, so I bet the other SODAART members probably felt like they didn't get to say everything they wanted to either!

(Honestly, I wanted to hear more from everyone else too.)

Please go check out the stream — it's absolutely packed with everyone's private side!

And feel free to ask the team questions about it too.

I also revealed photos of everything in my bag during the stream,

so make sure to check that out as well!

Alright, that wraps up this long-overdue diary entry on the official SODAART site.

See you next time ♡
