Quotes
“I realized it [K-POP] really does have a lot of impact around the world and it gives a lot of good energy. It also helped me through the tough times. I wanted to be that for someone else.”
“To be frank, I did anticipate that this may become a hit on TikTok, but never to this extent. TikTok is a huge platform, so I was definitely hoping that it would do well there and was excited to see all the covers of our songs.”
“It felt unreal but I was so happy to receive such amazing awards after only one year since our debut. We still can’t believe it, perhaps because everything happened so fast that it takes a little time for everything to start kicking in and for us to process everything completely.”
“When I was young, I also wanted to become an actress. I loved watching movies and TV shows and Disney Channel, and Angelina Jolie was everything to me. I remember wanting to be Alex Russo or Lara Croft growing up. I also did a lot of acting in and out of school by taking roles in musicals and plays!”
