— 𝙃𝙔𝙀𝙍𝙄

“the mii maker music [laughs] oh you want a serious one? playlist by dpr live then.”

“tinder by summer soul. it’s, like, flirty and sultry plus it’s a bop!”

— 𝘼𝙈𝙀𝙇𝙄𝙀

“who dat boy by tyler the creator. there’s no particular reason, to be honest. i don’t think i have songs that match my mood, per se, but i have songs that get stuck in my head while i’m in that mood. they may or may not correlate.

— 𝙃𝙔𝙐𝙉𝘽𝙄𝙉

“well right now i’m kinda tired and feeling lazy, so probably dayfly by dean.”

— 𝙃𝙒𝘼𝙈𝙄𝙉

“homecoming by girl in red. yes, i listen to girl in red. but like seriously, i was in a similar situation in high school, and i was just thinking of how well that song and that situation go together.”

♦️ for any/all of the girls about their predebut experience

— 𝙋𝙀𝙍𝙍𝙔

“to be completely honest, it was a nightmare. don’t get me wrong, i’m so glad i got to debut with these five wonderful girls, but the training was rough and i-i felt like a robot. not only that but i had to endure it for four whole years. that experience actually grew my fear of failure. it got way better in the end, though.”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙀𝙍𝙄

“it was pretty easy, considering i’d debuted before. i knew, like, what to do and how to do my best without overworking myself. it even got pretty fun sometimes!”

— 𝙍𝙊𝙎𝙀𝙃𝘼

“the highlight of my life. things looked up for me majorly, and i was able to do things i wouldn’t have been able to do when i was younger. i think it helps that i religiously watched trainee videos and did my research like 100 times. all in all, it was a really good time.”

— 𝘼𝙈𝙀𝙇𝙄𝙀

“the second i got introduced to these five girls, i knew my life would change for the better. i had a great time spending time with them and dancing my little butt off in the practice room. i mean, sure, i would maybe push myself too hard and maybe overwork myself to the point of exhaustion but it’s all good now!”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙐𝙉𝘽𝙄𝙉

“i walked into starship entertainment with 100% confidence that i was going to be working solo. no, seriously. you can imagine my surprise when i saw five strangers on the other side of the room, staring at me. i was so confused, i was like ‘who are these people?’ and then i put two and two together and was like, ‘ohhhh...’ i was so embarrassed i hid in the studio every day for a week! they’re not so bad now.”

— 𝙃𝙒𝘼𝙈𝙄𝙉

“i originally joined as a producer, and even then i didn’t want to become an idol; i only did it because my parents wouldn’t stop pestering me about it, but then i developed my rapping skills and eventually got closer with the others. it was only a year but it was a surprisingly pleasant year.”

♥️ for all of the girls? 🥺 (btw they look amazing!!)

— 𝙋𝙀𝙍𝙍𝙔

“ooh, this is a toughie. love is... love is a universal thing. it’s not strictly romantic like you can love your friends, you can love your family, you can love anyone if you properly set your mind and heart to it. my problem is that i fall in love too easily! [chuckles] like i’m the first person to say “i love you” in a relationship and when those feelings don’t get reciprocated, i get upset pretty easily. i think i’m just too sensitive! [laughs]”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙀𝙍𝙄

“love is pretty freaking scary! [chuckles] honestly, i’ve never been in a relationship because i lowkey have a fear of commitment and you gotta be committed to love somebody! i think if i were to fall in love, it would change my life and not necessarily for the better, so that’s why i stick to platonic love instead of romantic love.”

— 𝙍𝙊𝙎𝙀𝙃𝘼

“for me, honestly? love is the best thing you could ever experience. like, the whole ‘meeting a person, getting to know them, growing a stable relationship with them, spending lots of time with them’ is just an amazing feeling, and then when you realise “oh i actually want to spend the rest of my life with this person” it’s scary and nauseating and exciting all at once. i’ve only fallen in love with one person and i would do it a thousand times over.”

— 𝘼𝙈𝙀𝙇𝙄𝙀

“i was a bit of a flirt when i was younger, and i would have casual relationships but when they said the l word, alarm bells went off in my head! [laughs] so i would always break it off with them. all that changed once i met this person and i was like “this isn’t supposed to happen, i’m not supposed to get attached” and i would start getting lovesick and thinking of this person 24/7. love is... it’s different to ‘like liking’ someone. love makes you sad and sick and happy at the same time. most importantly, it makes you grow.”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙐𝙉𝘽𝙄𝙉

“i was dating this guy for a while, and i loved him. now we’re broken up and i still love him, just in a different way. see, loving someone isn’t the same as being in love with someone. we both realised that even though we loved each other, we were better off as friends because we didn’t love each other that way. what i’m saying is, you’ll know when you fall in love.”

— 𝙃𝙒𝘼𝙈𝙄𝙉

"love means knowing that no matter what, you have someone to count on. it’s unconditional and makes you feel all warm and gooey on the inside. you can trust the person you love and be yourself around them. it’s like your heart tells you that this person is good for you. love shouldn’t hurt or make you cry your eyes out.”

“i was so competitive that my parents actually didn’t allow me to enter any contests or competitions, because i would get too into it! [chuckles]”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙀𝙍𝙄

“yep, i did many singing contests back at my old school and i won most of them! i don’t mean to brag, but yeah!”

— 𝙍𝙊𝙎𝙀𝙃𝘼

“when i was younger, i tried not to do anything that would draw attention to myself, so no. oh wait! actually, i was part of this dance troupe and we won this championship thingy which was pretty cool.”

— 𝘼𝙈𝙀𝙇𝙄𝙀

“yeth! i entered tons of dance contests and this one time, my mother forced me to do a piano contest that i really didn’t want to do. at the end, i ended up winning and she took me out for ice cream so it wasn’t that bad.”

— 𝙃𝙔𝙐𝙉𝘽𝙄𝙉

“nope. too shy.”

— 𝙃𝙒𝘼𝙈𝙄𝙉

“i considered entering this underground rapping competition, so i told my parents about it. big mistake. they wouldn’t stop pestering me until they put me off it completely.”
