MMM_Where Are We Now (2022)

MaKe SoMe NoIsEeEeEeE! FoR MaMaMoOoO!!

"Where are we now?" is the documentary's name but also the name of their album 'WAW- Where are we now. This documentary consists of 4 episodes with the fourth episode being the longest and the heartfelt one. Each episode talks about each member and a worry or ordeal that happens during their time together.

Episode 1: Rising and Setting of the Sun
This episode talks about their period of time during pre-debut and showcases Kim Yong-sun or by her stage name SOLAR in detail. She talks about her failures (which by the way was somehow very motivating) and despite her failures, she has come so far. She tells her responsibility of being a leader and being the oldest and how she wants to protect them.

Episode 2: Thorn Bearing Flower
The name of the episode is just perfect. This episode talks about their first song and how much they practiced for it and showcases Ahn Hye-jin or by stage name HWASA. She is the youngest but her talent doesn't lack. She talks about how it was hard at first cause of her sex appeal and the people trying to fit her in their beauty standards. She eventually finds a way to talk about these issues and how they shaped her.

Episode 3: Wind
You cant hold wind and that's Jung Whee-in or Wheeinee, with love. She is, in my opinion, the one with the wind and sky. She is very talented but she isn't the type to show it. She talks about how she has come so far and her personality. She tells the members are so close to each other that eye contact is enough to speak. She tells that now happiness is what keeps them going. The episode also showcases their first concert and everyone's emotions regarding others.

Episode 4: The star at its place
The thing about this episode is that this one is the hardest to watch. Not cause it is long but the fact that this is the deepest. We have Moon Byul-Yi showcased and even though she is the girl crush of the group, she is the one that wears her heart on her sleeves. She is the simplest. There is a trip and a lot of crying and opening up. But in the end, it was all good.

The main cast is Mamamoo but the real stars of the show were the people who were beside them. Lee Hyori started the documentary and also ended it. Rainbow World Bridge, their company, and its officials were ever more the most helpful. They talked about every member like they were their guardian, which ofc they are, but you get what i mean. There is also a cameo of Baek Ji Young in Ep 2.

Throughout the whole documentary, I felt like I could learn many things from these 4 girls. I am still young but i really look up to them. I can't personally relate to any one member as a whole but their moments, though tiny, I could relate to.It was a nice short journey. Especially when you love Mamamoo.

Signing off,
A MooMoo.
