deadass got teary eyes
Fx is a bond💕💖💖💖
I AM CRYING. MY GIRLS😭😭
When did she said it i missed it … :,(
Is it weird that I'm a fan of these two people, as people, without really knowing much of their music? I've seen them in several youtube interviews, and they both seem to be genuinely kind.
Its okay..😊
Now you can look up to their music if you need a new music on your daily playlist...😊
I dont think Its weird, I dont listen to Amber or Eric's music, but theyre both so real and loveable, so I still stan them both, because I know theyre talented
They both are. They are the most sincere, genuine and kind people and just wants what is best for everyone :) esp Amber
Its not weird at all because they both do have amazing personalities! But also they have amazing music, i promise you wont regret it if you check out their stuff :)
Yooo me too!! I don't really listen to music actively, like searching up artists that I hear on the radio. But I used to watch variety shows and talkshows a lot when I was younger 2012-2016 that time period, and I always saw Amber and Eric and I like them and I'm so proud of where they are in their career now even if I don't listen to their music.
I love the way Eric converses with people. He's polite . He's a good listener. In an interview he said he's a cold boring person . Well I think he's pretty sexy being someone who can listen to you attentively. I love that in him. A really grown up gentleman
This is his biggest charm, I think. There are A LOT OF fans swooning over him during WGM, because we can see his perfect manner to everyone. Which is a very rare find these days
Amber : you know
Jae: interesting
Eric: right, right, right
Peniel, bm, ashley: yeah, yeah, yeah
Diana: laughing in the back
Only real ops will understand
Now alexa too: interesting
Table: uh.......
Looks like Jamie is the only normal gremlin here
BM: daaaaaaaaaang, OOoooOOooOoOooohHhHHh, Hell nOOOo, whaaAAaAaT???
This feel like listening to TED TALK by K-pop artists with good amount of experience and know how to the industry.
The thing that always amazes me about amber is how her career In K-pop is an anomaly. By all means her gender expression combined with the fact she was foreign should have made her unemployable as an idol. On top of that she got signed to a huge label that isn't exactly known for being a beacon of social progression. In fact they're one of the labels that seems to play it really safe when it comes it experimental concepts. So on top of her being a none traditional female in an industry of pretty heavily enforced gender norms (at the time), she wasn't in a a supa crazy experimental group. She was in a very girly group and played around with both sides of her personality there. Its a really interesting journey to watch and I will never understand how it happened
Thissss!!! I think about it all the time. My best guess is that she's just THAT good and THAT talented that sm just *had* to debut her.
SM really gambles it all on fx tbh. Thats the first and last time they EVER do anything experimental. Thats sort of why they dont really take care of Fx too sadly, they just don't bother to branch out anymore.
@@sasyass f(x) was a study in paradoxes, a group that was experimental...within the established format of kpop.
@@xheralt exactly
Your comment says it all. I never gave it much thought because she was normal to me but come to think of it you're absolutely right.
Mental health needs to be something we can freely talk about without being ashamed. Maybe even more in the kpop world.
louder!
"If I wanna date you, it means I wanna marry you" relatable!
Amber,eric nam,jessie, jackson...4 amazing personalities.Their conversions are always filled with energy and positive vibes
Right.. Henry Lau too
you better check out Get Real podcast. BM, Peniel, and Ashley are also the same way.
I love how #AmberLiu makes a lot of sense when she's talking. She's always careful and gentle with what she says yet she always conveys positive and truthful messages to us, her fans, and to other people. She's genuinely nice and smart - some of the many things that I appreciate about her. Lots of love to you Amber and Eric - from Vancouver, BC!
Raise your hand if you wanna be Amber’s friend!!!👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
🙋🏻♀️
🖐️
"F(x) not broken up, we will always be together"
Thank you Amber *me crying in the corner*
I feel like I'm trespassing and listening to two friends having a very meaningful conversation and I have to keep on reminding myself that it's only a podcast but they're so open about everything, it's so beautiful.
43:26 "if we all sing the same melody, how can there be a harmony?" good job, amber, indeed.
Amber feels like the older sister that we never had that has gone thru shit and gives u advice
This only confirms what I've always thought. Amber IS the coolest person in KPOP.
She is indeed
Its cool to hear amber having a broad perspective on things, but its also sad to think how much she has to go thru to get till this point. In the talks and podcasts shes featured she has been so open minded and honest and it really opens up alot of things for me hearing her experiences and hardships. In entertainment industry one is expected to be “flawless” but her humanising herself and others, and using her platform/influence to encourage others is really what made appreciate her.
Okay she is a girl i wanted to make sure because I was quite confused
"You can't deny someone their emotions". Thank you Amber. Would you mind telling my mother this? She doesn't get it.
Eric bro you'd make a looott of money as a therapist. You're so good with words, or on how you approach the other person's words. It's all so politely but in a way it all makes so much sense. You're a great person fr :(
As a therapist, I am so glad and so happy that Amber & Eric have brought up therapy and tried to normalise it. To anyone who needs it - please seek help :) x
Eric: “What scares you?” Amber’s subconscious: The subscribe notification on Twitch 😂
Lol 😂😂
This already feels like its gonna be insane knowing Amber and Eric
I love what amber is saying she has such an amazing heart and I love that she can support other people because in the end they are all going through something or went through something and is nice to have someone that supports and can advice them by telling them her experience.
This was such a great podcast episode. You can feel the sincerity across the screen, it did feel like they were just catching up with each other’s lives. The maturity, understanding, few banters here and there-these are few of the many more reasons why their friendship is so precious. Going 7 years, from Eric’s “Heaven’s Door” with Show Champion MC Amber days to today’s successful music artists of their own paths. Thanks, DIVE Studios.
Yup. This just confirms. I still wanna be adopted by Amber!.....or be friends with Amber and Eric 😂
Recently I've discovered Amber's solo stuff. I was shocked how different it was from how she sounded in the group. I listen to her songs a lot lately.
Yeah, she has the voice of an angel ❤😍
Cant believe Im almost turning 20 this year, I was huge fan of F(x) back in 2013 when I was fully discovering kpop and found out that i had KBS channel on tv, even performing rum pum pum pum in front of my teachers and classmates on teachers day. And now Amber is 29. LIKE whut. Also, Im glad and happy that Amber is slowly but surely finding her happy place, physically and mentally. I love this channel with all these discussions on the kpop industry, and we all need it especially when kpop is being more globally known.
Late to watching this.
This whole interview broke my heart. I hope she’s doing ok. Thank you for being vulnerable and thank you Eric for giving space to talk about mental health.
Please invite amber more often to the show or give her her own podcast
“Why not change hearts”....hearing amber talk about how change must be found within us is very healing in some way
I like how genuine and natural both of them talked, with Eric's questions and Amber's answers. Nothing candid. Just, you know, genuine. Love this episode.
Amber: f(x) is not breaking up.
Me: crying.
Amber is so special to go through betrayal and life crap and still have such positivity and some extra to share. 🥰🥰🥰😊
I have never clicked on a vid this fast... I'm so excited to see Amber and Eric XD
I can honestly say that this episdoe and talk has really hit close to home its nice to see how Amber and Eric are normally super energetic and hyper but to see them do these talks feels amazing thanks Eric and Amber
F(X) SHOULD MAKE AN ENGLISH ALBUM COMEBACK. THAT WOULD BE THE ULTIMATE WORLD COMEBACK : p
"Light is easy to love. Show me your darkness."

Oh shit, I was just did a memory trip for fx last week. Then, I was like “could be another fx kind of a new girl group in the future?” And then I kinda replied to myself “there’s no one can do this sound other than these girls”
Really miss them.
Emotions should always be valued. Just because someone is happy doesn't mean someone else should be sad. And the same with other feelings. To feel is not wrong and everyone does it. It's how we act after that can be wrong but to feel should never be wrong. I'm also happy to see how good Eric is to listen and just be respectful and stuff.
man, Amber was one of the MAIN reasons why I even liked any girl groups. she made me appreciate how awesome and unique she is so I am so happy to see her again with Eric.
GIRL YOU ARE THE S***!
Amber is so right at 11:27. I don't understand why people who experience hardship want everyone coming up behind them to experience it, too. Why would you not want to try to make it better if you can? The mentality of "If I had to suffer, so do you" seems very small-spirited to me.
I love her attitude and just her whole being!
We just all need to learn to give as much grace as we'd be willing to receive;learn through our experiences and choose to not be weighed down by past mistakes. Takes a strong person that has been hurt to grow and not also want to hurt others too. You're amazing Amber
I really love her.....like, Amber seems to be THAT person for all Idols, like, you feel like she really helps them and they go to her when they need help and that is a huge thing
Amber’s just a deep person period. I haven’t been updated much with her but I really really love and support her so much. I love you, Amber! I love fx!! 🥺❤️
Amber is just one of the most wholesome people I've ever seen in my life.
I love Amber so much! Her style, her attitude, her talent... Everything! ♥♥
This is why amber is my role model ever since I started listening to kpop.
oh my ghad amber and eric mentioning jia and fei from miss A makes me wanna go back to the golden era of kpop
I just want to give Amber a hug. She seems like just a deep person
Getting to know Amber a lot more in this show. Thank you.
omg she got the potential to bring back f(x) one more time. Amber has quality to self-produce song and MV's, Luna already has her own company (this likely be Luna 38:17), Krystal and Victoria's still got the exposure from dramas, modelling and ads. Just wait for the time guys.
F(x) is not broken UP !! 💜💪🏽
Congratulations amber! I know it's hard, but I hope this is the best decision and hope u get better future, we love u!
Please invite Krystal too!
F(x) is not broken up!!
And happy 11th Anniversary F(x), MeU love you guys so much!!💜💜💜
I'm just watching this after a year but hearing Amber makes me so happy, to know an artist like her so outspoken, open, and sentive is part of our generation (and Kpop pop). What Eric said about Amber and how she sees people I totally feel it even if I don't know her, I guess this is why I liked her from those compilations of her interacting with other idols, you can feel her vibes and she is awesome. I'm gonna listen and appreciate her music so much now that I know her work behind it too!
"having this understanding of trying to understand each other is, i think, what's lacking the most these days of what i see with a lot of ppl" wow amber
I AM AMAZED BY THE WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING AMBER IS.
I HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN
BY THE WAY HER MUSIC IS
I'm sharing this like everywhere on my social media because I loooove how bold, insightful, realistic, inspiring, clarity-inducing, and consoling this talk is
bro if amber made a podcast just about life, I would soo listen
it's nice to see that she is much healthier and happier now. Genuine happiness is all i wish for these idols.
Im so happy that she’s auditioning for acting roles! Just keep swimming Llama ❤️❤️❤️
I love the deep conversations Amber and Eric have. Talking about mental health is so important. It's really inspiring to see Amber try to be a mentor to younger idols and friends. She's doing a lot of good just offering up a safe space to listen, it's so valuable and such a great trait to have as a friend. Eric is also a really good listener all the while Amber was talking he was really attentive and he shows how invested he is in the conversation. 💖💖 This was really enjoyable and lovely! Thanks!
I really admire her and want to support her, love from California.
I'm so happy she is honest and also eric with his topics. We have heard light headed topics and that's alright but i really appreciate the rough topics. And i feel very blessed they feel that they can open up to us. It can be ready difficult but i feel honored. To see the real side and not the sugar coated and I'm so happy eric asked her how she felt about the death. It will probably take a lot of years but seeing her just talking about it is very strong. She is so inspiring. Idk how she does it but man. I wish to cover those i love with this huge blanket and hide from this world.
Lols, this podcast of eric and amber is the best two energetic duo ever! Love how they shared their experiences, personal stories, and give advice and hope to everyone! Keep doing what you're doing!! :) Wish you the best in all you do, Amber, Eric, & Dive Studios!
this makes me miss f(x) more but at the same time this calms and reassures me somehow
Amber is so smart and also I applaud her for how well she's doing 🤍🔥
I've learnt many things watching this interview. Props to you both.
I have waited years for their comeback and I never got it I love them all so much, I love fx they are literally one of the most amazing kpop girl group ever made, they are so talented sm waisted their time so much. I will never stop supporting them as a group or individual.
Im so happy hearing that they haven’t broken up, and made me more anticipated.
Very Happy hear f(x) NOT BREAK UP ^^
She is a GREAT person!
I really loved this interview, I mean they discussed something important as is Mental Health. I always loved the good vibe that Eric gives to everyone he's interviewing ❤️
F(x) and MeU's for life!!! Will always love and support you guys! Hope you all stay happy and healthy, we got your back~ ^_^ F(x) is Family and MeU's will always protect this family no matter what.
Eric Keep praying for the soul og Amber. She needs the positive progression. I love listening to your conversation here. Honest and no holding back.
I didn't know eric has his own podcast bht I'm so thankful for his podcast. Amber and Eric also feels like my best friends. They don't even know me but they're so wholesome :((((((
I became a fan from the 4 walls album. That was a very solid album that got me listening to kpop, which I never thought it will ever happen. I backtracked f(x)'s previous albums and maaaan. I'm soooo glad to have known them.
Some of the worst things people say to someone struggling with depression is. Get over it. There are people who have it worse than you. You have everything going for you. Probably because they were never depressed... Feeling sad about a situation or event for a certain period of time is normal. Depression goes beyond this.
She truly is talented
41:10 I needed this cause one of my best friends passed away 4 months ago and it's good to hear someone who has through the same as me, she's being so realistic yet so positive even tho it hurts, and I hope to be like that as well. Mourning has it's ups and downs but it makes us to have a different perspective now and we can come stronger out of this situation.
Stay strong 🙏
Everyone needs a friend like Amber ❤️🥺
Thought this would be chaotic but it was so therapeutic
17:55 "Once you just realize drama is everywhere. You're just kind of like, okay, well...whatever!"
Amber is a very generous person with a beautiful heart i realy respect her
Finally the full vers...💜💜 Thankyou..
What I appreciate the most about you guys is the kindness and modesty. Oh, and the humour ... and empathy. You're both cool. Stay healthy 😊
You go, Amber! Thanks for always sharing your journey and growth as an artist, in business, and as one of this species of beautiful, flawed hoomans
Eric : I’m personally a fan of f(x)
Me : *screaming* ME TOO.
Amber speaking soo much truth and wisdom.
Amber lui real humble person 👍👍
Amber is so pretty...
them saying eric nam is boring or cold in reactions , i kinda get that wonderful mind , he says ''great or amazing'' he really values those kinds of words and use them with its own meaningful power and i love how mature he is and good listener , i just love this guy
Amber is so deep today man but genuine
i love you amber. we miss what the pineapple

The conversation is deep. Great that Amber can thro this all. N never give up. I wish her always meet with good peoples and everything run smoothly. She is a gift to the world. Especially her fans. 💜
앰버! 늘, 언제나 고맙고 사랑해요. I think it’s really important to little girls to have a different role models, especially when it comes to so-called ‘show business’. And you are definitely the one. I’m just happy watching you BEING YOU. Never stop being yourself. And don’t listen to me either. Thank you and I’ll support you no matter what.
