Quotes

“Of course, since I started my career when I was a teenager, I’ve often been called ‘Teenager Somi’ or ‘Student Somi’ so my teen years mean a lot for me. I’m curious about my 20s that are coming up soon, and meanwhile I’m also trying to write a lot of lyrics while I have teenage emotions. Since it will be a shame once that passes by.”

“I thought that once I debuted I’d just feel happy and that once that wish came true, that was the end. When I think about it now, I was wrong. I relate to the difficult time that the trainees are going through while also thinking, ‘Why didn’t I train more then? I want to go back in time to when I was a trainee and dance and sing more.’”

“It took a lot of effort and time before I made my solo debut. I had experience on stage, but I was really nervous doing my first solo promotions. Next time, I want to be more relaxed on stage and show that I’m enjoying myself.”

“It’s not easy for a girl group or an artist to make their own music and make their own album. But here [at THEBLACKLABEL], it’s just so obvious. They’re like, ‘It’s your album. You got to make your own music, duh.’ Now they kind of call me an artist. I’m like woah, thank you.”

“This is all mine. At the end [of the day], like the music that I’m putting out, the music video that I’m putting out. It’s all mine. It just represents who I am to people.”

“I only live once. So I don’t want to live a life without a dream. I just want everyone to dream. I just want to give positive vibes and say, really, you don’t know what’s going to happen in your life. So just start moving.”
