On the July 13th broadcast of KBS 2TV‘s ‘Star Life Theater‘, Jiyeon reminisced of her younger years as she said, “I liked Tae Kwon Do so much; my dream was to become a Tae Kwon Do professional.”

When asked how she became an artist, Jiyeon answered, “When I was young and I didn’t know any better, I was watching a drama on TV and thought I wanted to do that too. I started going to acting classes and started auditioning by myself, and I ended up meeting the company I’m with now. I debuted as an artist, and I got my opportunity to act as well. I think I was extremely lucky.”

The episode also revealed footage of the girls’ first Japanese concert. Remarking that studying Japanese was a difficult task, Jiyeon evoked laughter as she said, “My Japanese level is that of a 4 year old child.”
