During the press conference for her solo debut at the Core Contents Media's practice room on May 19, Jiyeon revealed that she had some say when it came to herdebut solo album.
Jiyeon said, "I wanted a mannish concept and the company president wanted a sexy concept. I think they took about 30% of my opinion into consideration." She then mentioned Kahi, saying, "She's the person who tried the concept I really want to do."
She was then asked about the difference between her solo stage and T-ara's group stages. Jiyeon said, "It'll seem different as soon as you see it. It's a different style from T-ara, so the performance in itself will be different. Make sure you watch the performance."
She then chose IU as the friend who gave her the most strength during her preparations for her solo debut. Jiyeon said, "IU gave me a lot of strength. She told me, 'It will feel very lonely and will be very hard for you to do this alone after promoting in a group.' She also advised, 'Don't do a sexy concept. Don't go too sexy.'"
As for her ultimate goal, Jiyeon said with aegyo, "I would like my solo promotions this time to not be the last. I don't know why I want to hear so badly that I look cool. Rather than hearing that I'm sexy, I want to hear that I'm a really cool woman."
