Hahaha I'm glad it helped cleared any confusion even by a little! Korean is a difficult language and there's so many puns or homonyms that a lot of time the fans have to know some basics to understand the joke in shows

interesting enough, I just came across these two words in another idol content! So your explanation helped give context to that too!

During the beauty make-up class, Sakura was saying 'Dog' correctly in Korean (gae) actually. But if taken out of context, 'Dog/gae' is often used as a slur to curse at someone in Korea because 'Son of a -' in Korean is 'Gae (dog) Saekki (child)'.
So idols will usually use the word 'Puppy' (gang-aji) when describing themselves/others which sounds cuter and mellow. Sakura was not fluent in Korean yet for it to be offensive, thankfully.

I'd like to say that this was in their debut era when most of them were still awkward with each other, and they were already this chaotic XD

Woo~ Wasn't expecting both episode in one upload but yay!!! They used the word 'Ipdeok' numerous time, and it actually means 'to become a fan of xxx'
