'Dazed', a magazine that presents original content every month based on fashion and culture, has released pictures with actress Lee Yu-mi, who clearly announced her presence as Ji-yeong in the Netflix original series 'Squid Game' through the November 2021 issue.

In an interview with 'Dazed', actress Lee Yu-mi had an honest conversation about the story behind the Netflix original series 'Squid Game' and how she felt about winning the Rookie of the Year award through the movie 'Young Adult Matters' at the 2021 Buil Film Awards.

Lee Yoo Mi said, “The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful at the awards ceremony. I thought that even if I did win an award, it wouldn’t feel real. I attended the ceremony casually, not expecting an award, but I heard my name being called. From that moment on, it felt weird because I’d never received an award before. There, someone came up to me, praised me for what I did, and handed me the trophy. Everything felt very new to me, and I was proud because it felt like I was being rewarded for all the efforts I had put into acting.”

When asked how she wanted to be remembered, Lee Yoo Mi responded, saying, “I want to become an actress who makes people become curious about myself.” She continued, “I want to make people wonder about my work and the roles that I am about to play or have just played.”

The completed pictorial and video of 'Dazed' with actress Lee Yu-mi can be found in the November issue of 'Dazed' and official social media channels such as website, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

On December 27, Daesung shared his thoughts in a video on his YouTube channel, Zip Daesung.

In the video, Daesung greeted the production team warmly, saying, "It’s been a while. Why does this feel so awkward?" The staff chimed in, "It’s because we haven’t seen you since 'MAMA'!"

Daesung reflected on how his life changed after the iconic stage. "The way people treat me has completely shifted since 'MAMA.' It’s incredible," he shared.

"Honestly, I haven’t felt this kind of attention in a long time. Fans from all generations are showering me with love, and I’m so grateful for it."

The buzz began on November 23 at the 2024 MAMA Awards in Osaka, Japan, when Daesung joined G-Dragon and Taeyang for a long-awaited BIGBANG performance. This marked their first full-group stage since 2017, thrilling VIPs around the world.
