Moon Chanel, who came to Korea from the U.S. five years ago to become a girl group member, shared, "I'm mixed-race. My mom is Korean, and my dad is American." She attributed her fluent Korean skills to frequent conversations with her parents and her love for K-pop since the age of four.

Ye-Won also shared, "I had good academic grades and was often the school president. I worked hard in school," and mentioned that she debuted with FIFTY FIFTY after appearing on a survival program.

When Heo Young-man asked, "Are there 50 members?", the members clarified, "We are a five-member girl group. However, we don't have specific positions. We aim to be members who can do everything well. There's no leader, but the eldest, Kina, is like a mom." They also expressed pride in their 'easy listening' music.

When asked about her 'daily practice time', Ye-Won revealed, "I start at 10 AM and finish at 10 PM. I practice singing and dancing for 12 hours without any days off," surprising everyone.

She added, "No matter how hard it is, I chose to do this, so instead of thinking 'I'm so unhappy', I think it's good if my skills improve this way," showing her passion for singing and dancing.

Meanwhile, FIFTY FIFTY debuted in 2022 but faced legal disputes when former members Saena, Sio, and Aran notified the agency of their contract termination. The group was renewed in 2024 with existing member Kina and new members Moon Chanel, Ye-Won, Hana, and Athena joining.
