Gong Seung-yeon revealed a funny family story about being kicked out by her father after hitting her sister on the YouTube web show 'Salon Drip' hosted by Jang Do-yeon.
On the episode aired on the 14th, titled 'Prepare to Meet the Grand Princess!', IU, Byun Woo-seok, Noh Sang-hyun, and Gong Seung-yeon, stars of MBC's '21st Century Grand Princess', made an appearance.
During the show, Byun Woo-seok shared a heartwarming family story, saying, "My sister, who is five years older, used to buy me clothes and take good care of me. We hardly ever fought." IU, who has a younger brother, responded, "That's such a sweet story. I used to hit my brother a lot."
In contrast, Gong Seung-yeon confessed, "As three sisters, we fought a lot. I hit my younger sisters often, and once, after hitting my sister Jeong-yeon, my father stopped the car and made me get out barefoot." She added, "It was winter, and I walked about three bus stops thinking, 'I'm going to kill her.' This happened when I was around twenty."
Gong Seung-yeon continued, "The next day, my sister Jeong-yeon was about to film 'Sixteen', and her eye was swollen from being hit. It was just playful, but I was really shocked. I wondered what would have happened if she couldn't debut because of it."
IU shared, "My brother hasn't watched 'You Have Fallen for Me' yet. He says the Geum-myeong and Eun-myeong parts give him PTSD, so he only watches the shorts," bringing laughter.
Gong Seung-yeon revealed that her sister, TWICE's Jeong-yeon, is a big fan of IU. "She usually doesn't monitor my work, but she will watch this one," she said. "Jeong-yeon even sent IU a DM to send concert tickets."
IU responded, "I found out about Jeong-yeon's DM thanks to Gong Seung-yeon. I usually buy my own tickets and secretly attend concerts to enjoy them fully."
Meanwhile, Gong Seung-yeon shared her experience for the movie 'Aloners', saying, "I had to smoke for the role. I tried all kinds of cigarettes and carried a pouch full of lighters." She added, "I once left my script and cigarettes on a bench, and the security guard returned them to me. It was embarrassing, but I tried to get used to it."
