It was here when main dancer Lisa revealed a small tidbit of information about her food preferences.

She mentioned that she ate a mango earlier that day. This small and sweet food is the country’s national fruit.

I had mango after arriving at the hotel earlier.

Lisa is not the only K-Pop idol who has fallen in love with Filipino mangoes. LE SSERAFIM‘s Kazuha also expressed how much she loves them in a solo video. Instead of the fresh version, she particularly likes the dried mangoes that come in packs.

There’s this food that I’m into these days. It’s dried mango. So I didn’t even know that I had two dried mangoes at home. This one, I bought, and this one, I brought from a set. Dried mangoes are so delicious, and I’m eating a lot these days.

She’s eaten it so many times, there is a certain way that she likes to prepare it the most.

I put two or three slices of dried mango in a cup of plain yogurt. I put it in the fridge overnight. When I wake up the next day and open the yogurt, the dried mango has soaked up the moisture and becomes fresh again. The yogurt becomes sweeter, and the mango becomes fresh, so it’s really cool.
