Yugyeom began by saying that it was a little bit sad and that he wanted to stand on the stage again soon so bad because he missed their fans already. They also revealed that they were preparing their next album and their next performances in Korea and Japan. Right after that, they began a dorm tour by dividing the members into three teams: First, JB and Mark revealed their vestibule which was full of shoe racks and seemed very messy because of the scattered shoes on the floor. JB said that their vestibule couldn’t fit their shoes anymore because GOT7 members were really into shoes, so they had a lot of pair of shoes. JB and Mark also showed us one of their skateboards, which was put in the vestibule. Next, Bambam and Jinyoung revealed their wardrobe. It was not too big but packed with a lot of clothes and socks and looked very messy too. There were so many socks divided by color because GOT7 members love wearing funny socks. Then, Jackson, Yugyeom, and Youngjae did the refrigerator tour. There were so many kinds of stuff in the refrigerator.

But the most eye-catching stuff in the refrigerator was the ice cream in the freezer. It was so big and there were more than one.

Finally, the dorm tour was completed by eating dinner in the living room, and it was known that JB has “Sundae King” as his nickname, because he is really into sundae.
The Unknown Address
No one will tell anyone where GOT7 members live unless they are sasaengs. Those who visit idols’ dorms or wait for idols in front of their dorms are called sasaengs. Sasaengs also sell idols’ private information, like telephone numbers, Kakao talk account names, etc. JYP Entertainment, as well as other companies who promote the debut of many idols, don’t allow fans near the idols’ dorms and don’t allow them to stalk them when they don’t have an official schedule.
