Jisoo has the same face, but her skills have improved a lot. It's so good to release a solo. Jisoo was originally pretty (from 10 years ago). It's good that it went well, "he explained.

Graduate school fees are expensive, but there is no scholarship available. If you become a teaching assistant, you will be able to pay the tuition fees, so I am a teaching assistant." It's the same, but last year, Taeyeon sunbaenim's 3rd album promotion exhibition coincidentally became an opportunity, so we named it as a joint project."
