TWICE's Mina recently opened up about an emotional moment she had while preparing for MISAMO's activities, revealing that she broke down in tears due to a sudden choreography change.
On March 26, the latest episode of HyoYeon’s Level Up series BapsaHyo was released on YouTube, featuring a special appearance by MISAMO—TWICE's Japanese unit consisting of Mina, Sana, and Momo. The trio shared their experiences, highlighting the differences between group and unit promotions.
Sana pointed out how unit activities come with a different kind of pressure. “When we promote as a full group, there’s a lot of waiting time, which is exhausting."
She added, "But at least we have time to eat properly. With unit activities, there’s no break time, so sometimes we have to go straight to the stage without eating,” she explained.
Hyoyeon agreed, saying, “When you're in a full group, you really need patience during those long waiting times. You end up doing something else to pass the time.”
Sana added, “I leave home at 6 a.m., and by the time I get back, it’s already 2 a.m.” Momo chimed in, “And it feels like we barely did anything in between.”
When Hyoyeon joked, “Then you must finish work earlier as a unit,” Mina laughed and replied, “But they always find a way to fill up the time.”
Mina then shared a moment when the stress became overwhelming. “When we released our first album, we had a showcase, but we had to prepare for it in the middle of our world tour,” she recalled.
“Since we had very little time, I had to memorize the choreography quickly. I finally got everything down, but then they suddenly changed the choreography".
She added, "And for some reason, I just couldn’t get it right. It was such a small detail, but the fact that I kept messing up made me so frustrated that I ended up crying.”
Momo backed her up, saying, “Mina is really good at picking up choreography quickly, so when she struggled with it, it was really unusual.”
Mina added, “I had just memorized it, and then they changed it. But when I couldn’t get it right, I was just so dumbfounded.”
Understanding how difficult it must have been to juggle both the world tour and the MISAMO showcase, Hyoyeon asked, “Did you mess up on stage, or did you pull it off?”
Mina confidently responded, “I didn’t let it show,” displaying her professionalism. However, she then admitted, “But these two were panicking next to me.”
Sana explained, “She’s not the type to make mistakes, so when she did, it felt like the world was ending. If Mina messes up, what am I supposed to do?” Momo added with a laugh, “Mina actually did it correctly, but since the two of us did it differently, it looked like she made a mistake too.”
Despite the struggles, MISAMO successfully pulled off their promotions, proving their dedication and teamwork. Fans continue to admire Mina’s professionalism and the strong bond between the trio!
