Former member Miya from the group GWSN revealed in an interview with a Japanese media outlet that she found it difficult to pursue an entertainment career in Korea.

In a recent interview with the Asahi Shimbun, published on May 21st, Miya mentioned that she jokingly referred to their trainee days as a "prison" and recalled the hardships of being in a girl group.

Miya stated, "Practice time was actually the least stressful time for me," and added, "By the time practice was over, it was already dark outside."

Furthermore, Miya expressed the struggles of having to report her diet to the agency daily and weigh herself, saying, "I even thought I might go crazy."

Miya explained that her previous agency was particularly strict, stating, "I had no free time, and even my phone was confiscated. I contacted my family using the manager's cellphone." She also mentioned that she became an illegal resident due to a mistake made by her former agency.

As a Japanese national, Miya debuted as a member of the multinational seven-member girl group GWSN in September 2018. However, after her agency went through a recovery process, she moved to THE WAVE MUSIC in July 2020.

Following GWSN's fifth mini-album release in June 2021, the group had a period of inactivity. As a result, the GWSN members filed a lawsuit against THE WAVE MUSIC to terminate their exclusive contract and won the case.

Miya is planning to continue her activities under a Japanese agency.

Singer Gummy showed her dedication as a mom by turning down drinks to take care of her child!

On May 9, a new video was uploaded to the Jip Daesung YouTube channel, featuring Gummy and hip-hop duo Dynamic Duo as guests.

When the food arrived, the staff told Dynamic Duo they could order alcohol, with Daesung adding, "This is all for the guests' comfort!"

Choiza then politely offered Gummy the choice, saying, "Let’s drink whatever Gummy wants." But the singer quickly declined, explaining, "I can’t drink today—I have to pick up my daughter."

Things got a little awkward when Daesung, the youngest, brought out soju. As he hesitated over who to serve first—Choiza or Gaeko—Gummy playfully scolded him like a mom, asking, "How do you even survive like this?"

Choiza joked, "Gummy got over her awkwardness after having a kid," but Gummy clarified, "I was never like this to begin with!" Laughing, Choiza admitted, "Actually, Daesung seems even more awkward than Gummy."

Daesung then shared a funny confession: "My sister says I have ‘beggar’s disease’—if I mess up on stage, I can’t stop thinking about it."

Choiza teased, "People around those with ‘beggar’s disease’ have it easy because they’re always reflecting on themselves."

Gummy disagreed, saying, "No, it’s actually hard to deal with them!"—only for Choiza to fire back, "You have it too!"

As Daesung kept goofing around, Gummy groaned, "Ugh, why are you making me want to drink so badly?"

Choiza suggested, "Just let your husband handle pickup today!" Though Gummy admitted, "Jo Jung Suk could do it," she still stuck to water, proving her commitment to mom duties!

Fans loved seeing her responsible yet relatable side—what a queen!
