Mamamoo's Moonbyul has shared her thoughts on solo stages and her dynamic with fellow member Solar.

On September 17, Moonbyul appeared in a video with broadcaster Song Eun-i on the YouTube channel 'V-BOT TV.' They talked about various topics, including Moonbyul's solo activities.

When asked by Song Eun-i if returning to group work after solo projects feels exciting or disappointing, Moonbyul responded, "Each of us has our own favorite music. Solo activities are like starting a new chapter. Mamamoo will stay as four members unless we disband, but we each want to explore our own paths too. I believe it will all come together even more when we come back to Mamamoo's music."

Moonbyul also talked about her relationship with Solar. She said, "Solar and I are just one year apart. Instead of seeing her as an older sister, she's more like a friend. We have had many fights," showing her affection for Solar.

When Song Eun-i asked if they ever fought by grabbing each other’s hair, Moonbyul laughed and said, "Yes, we have fought like that."

Describing their current relationship, Moonbyul said, "We’re in a good place now. We used to have more sharp words, but now we just brush things off. I feel like we’ve both grown up."

Song Eun-i tested Moonbyul with a choice: a surprise busking session with Mamamoo or a solo performance at Coachella. Moonbyul pretended to be distressed but ultimately said, "Realistically, I would choose Coachella. It’s a rare opportunity, and I think both the members and the fans would support me taking it."

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
