Dahyun on watching Jihyo’s solo performance on Inkigayo last year:
“Just seeing her fulfilling everything when nine people usually split up each role and responsibility… She was taking it all in herself, and it felt really emotional watching that.”
Nayeon on TWICE being one of the first groups to speak openly about prioritizing mental health:
“We’re completely different [from our idol selves]. Idols do have to use a lot of energy, and there is kind of a limit to how much a person can use their energy. We push all of that [away] while being an idol.”
Jihyo on having good energy between the group members:
“We’re really thankful [that we have] nine members. For one person, one member can be their favorite and they might not like the rest, but because we push our team of nine together, the team vibes are really good. We’re really thankful because of that. And because of that, we actually get a lot closer.”
Momo on being looked-up to as a group:
“We (as TWICE) had a dream of becoming an artist while looking at other artists once. It’s just really cool that these younger people have the same dream looking at us as well. It’s just fascinating, and we’re very thankful because of that.”
