Yerin: It’s my yêu thích Sô cô la but because I’m currently on a diet I couldn’t eat it. When was the last time I ate some? It was so long cách đây that I don’t even remember. I was just happy to be holding it.
You recently graduated? How does it feel?
Yerin: I didn’t cry, I really like wearing my uniform. Now that I can’t wear it anymore I’m really bewildered. Even though we wore a school look for ‘Glass Bead’ but it’s clearly different to my uniform. That ngày all of the members wore their uniform and did âm nhạc hiển thị rehearsals. I hope that video is never deleted. Ha… No matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t feel real. I’ll still wear my uniform occasionally. (laughs)
Come to think of it, it’s great to debut at the start of your 20’s.
Yerin: That’s why my graduation ngày was strange. Our manager was tiếp theo to me, and behind me were our những người hâm mộ taking pictures. My life changed a lot in just one month. It feels like it went bởi really quickly. Lots of days went bởi that I didn’t realize.
Even so, were there any memorable days?
Yerin: When doing the high kick one ngày I was so excited that my foot ended up going behind my head. I’m originally quite stiff. At school whenever we’d do a fitness test I’d often get minus in the flexibility portion. But starting from high school I practiced every ngày so I could be thêm flexible. I’m the type of person that focuses on one thing until I perfect it…. If bạn put in effort there is nothing bạn can’t do.
Do bạn have the role of older sister in the group?
Yerin: I have one older brother, there’s an 11 năm age difference. When I was in elementary school my brother served in the army, when I started middle school he went to the US to study so I grew up like an only child. I’m not used to being the unnie so when I became a trainee, the younger ones told me “Because bạn have no experience, just do as bạn feel.” and as we were together I eventually learned what not to do and what was right.
You have a very happy impression and seem like bạn don’t get angry is that right? (laughs)
Yerin: I don’t get angry often. My skin tone, cheeks and stomach are kind of like ‘rice cake’, the members ask me “Unnie, can I touch your stomach?”. But if the dorm is dirty I tend to get a bit annoyed. For example if there is an táo, apple peel left on the counter. Luckily the phòng bếp, nhà bếp has been clean lately. The members never take their laundry so I still have to say “Everyone please make sure bạn take all of your clothes today~”. (laughs)
What is most important to bạn at the moment?
Yerin: A good attitude. When we’re promoting we don’t get much sleep so it’s easy to be tired. I never used to like coffee but now I drink 3 cups. I also eat vitamins and nutrients well. In order to have a healthy mind bạn have to have a healthy body.
I think you’ll have a good year.
Yerin: Ah… I haven’t seen this year’s horoscope yet. (laughs) Honestly, they never match with me. When I was younger out of curiosity I went and saw a fortuneteller, she đã đưa ý kiến ‘You’ll lean towards being a celebrity but because it’s hard for you, you’ll give up’. But I’ve came this far and haven’t được trao up.

Are bạn the type to wake up easily on a ngày like this for an early morning schedule?
Yuju: Eunha, SinB, Umji and I all share a room in the dorm. I’m the one who wakes up the earliest and washes up, then wakes the other members. I used to wake up straight away when my alarm went off but lately I sleep through it so Yerin who is in the tiếp theo room has to wake me up. I’m working hard to find that will I lost.
Is it not because you’re all busy chatting until late? (laughs)
Yuju: Even though we’re with each other all ngày every day, they still talk before sleeping. Honestly because I’m the main vocal I have to do a lot of adlibs and if I talk all night my throat gets sore. Because taking care of my throat and voice is the most important for me I don’t talk much. I’m careful.
It seems like you’re thorough with self-care. bạn also only eat bánh mỳ, bánh mì 2 days every month.
Yuju: I really really tình yêu bread, I once had a rash and had to refrain from eating it for a week. bởi doing that my condition got better, my skin troubles seemed to go too. Because there’s a lot of other things to eat I’m good at restraining myself.
When did bạn start wanting to become a singer?
Yuju: Ever since I was little I loved hát and dancing. I started attending a vocal school in the 7th grade, there was a competition at Goyang city. There were a lot of older girls who had been training for a long time. I’d never formally learned so I got a participation prize. After that I started going to vocal school.
How did bạn end up at your current agency?
Yuju: I went to an audition. I passed and started trainee life, there were tasks I had to master every day. The person who taught me those was Yerin. ‘If anyone doesn’t teach me what do I do? If I have to do it all bởi myself what will I do?’ I worried a lot like that so I’m thankful to her. I was grateful there was an unnie like her.
You have to be especially good to her now. (laughs)
Yuju: But lately I play a lot of jokes (on her). I touch her cheeks a lot. I don’t do it a lot but bạn can see embarrassment in her face easily….No matter how I look at it I’m sorry for saying this but whenever she gets angry she’s really cute. I can tell she tries to control herself. Even though it’s really cute, I also think that I should be nicer to Yerin.
You seem like you’d be a model student so it’s surprising.
Yuju: Although I have a serious side too, there are a lot of opportunities to have fun. (laughs) There are times where I want to play around for no reason.
