Jihyo opened up about the strong bond she has with her TWICE members.
On July 31, Episode 7 of 'Senior Hyoyeon Who Treats You Well' on the ‘Hyoyeon’s Level Up’ channel featured Jihyo from TWICE. During the show, Hyoyeon asked if Jihyo had any role models from girl groups like Girls' Generation or Wonder Girls.
Jihyo replied, “I didn’t have a specific role model. Instead, I thought about what kind of idol I wanted to be. Since we’re from the same company, I looked up to the Wonder Girls seniors a lot.”
Hyoyeon then asked if living together in a dorm during their early days helped them grow closer. Jihyo shared, “We became very close. Not long after our debut, we hugged and cried a lot. It was tougher than we expected. We didn’t know what to expect from music shows, dry rehearsals, or camera rehearsals. Everything was overwhelming and busy, so we cried a lot.”
Hyoyeon commented, “It’s really touching. I can understand that feeling. It’s amazing that you all supported each other like that. You had a strong bond from the start, and that’s why you’re still thriving as a group.”
Jihyo also mentioned that among the members, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, and Tzuyu are the funniest. She said, “When we’re just with each other, we’re very lively and act like high school girls. But on broadcasts, everyone says, ‘You do it.’”
