Recently appearing on the YouTube channel 'One Mic,' Yejin shared, "I have never regretted leaving the group," and highlighted her current role as a show host, now in her fourth year, which has captured public attention.
She candidly discussed the challenges she faced during her idol days and her new ventures. Debuting with Brave Girls in 2011, Yejin left the group in 2014. She recounted the psychological strain due to the strict management, limited communication, and low income structure at the time.
Yejin admitted, "It was something I really wanted to do, but I couldn't handle it then. I even experienced depression." Living away from her family with limited communication, she felt more frustration and loneliness than a sense of achievement from her idol activities.
After leaving Brave Girls, Yejin confessed that she couldn't watch music shows for a while. She openly shared, "I felt so jealous and envious, wondering, 'Why am I like this?' which is why I still don't know much about girl groups or boy groups."
However, she persevered and eventually passed, now enjoying a stable career as a show host in her fourth year. Yejin expressed, "I worked hard with the determination to succeed this time," reflecting on her efforts and sense of accomplishment.
Even when Brave Girls gained success with a resurgence, she had no regrets. She stated, "I believe the good days came because the members persevered, and I'm grateful for the continued interest thanks to that name."
Currently, she balances her broadcasting activities with introducing various products and live broadcasts, connecting with fans while finding balance in her work and personal life. Yejin shared, "I am happy working as a show host now," expressing her satisfaction with her new life.
