TWICE FACTS AND UPDATE

Twice interview on GQ Korea- Tzuyu

Q: How do you keep such straight posture all day?

A: I slouched when I was little, but every time my dad would come and straighten my back. I became involved with it because it would make your figure prettier and raise your confidence. I have very little confidence. I just pretend to have it when we film.

Q: But you know that you’re pretty, right?

A: A confident woman is pretty. I want to become prettier. PD Park Jinyoung said that just your appearance won’t do, and that your mind has to be healthy too. I have to study up on it more.

Q: Don’t you ever want to be messy?

A: I think of myself as natural.

Q: You seem like a person without flaw.

A: Is that how you see me? My friends say I seem very intimidating at first, but I’m really not when we get close. I’m talkative too.

Q: Is there a part of your appearance you are discontent with?

A: There isn’t. My mom and dad worked hard so that I could be born like this, haha.

Q: How would you compare yourself to Seolhyun? You are both models for your own mobile carriers.

A: I’ve met Seolhyun sunbae a few times. Whenever I see a picture of her, I think, “If I pose like this, it makes your figure good.” I learn from watching her. But every person has their own charms, so I don’t think there is any need to compare.

Q: What do you have in your room?

A: A puppy doll, and facial masks. And cream for your face, nail polish…

Q: The member who sleeps the most is you, but you’re also the most diligent one? When you get back home, you always stretch before sleeping.

A: It’s become a habit. My mom is the type to manage me a lot. She’s always recommending things like creams, and I can’t just refuse that.

Q: Do you take after your mom?

A: I take after my dad a little too, but I hear I’m like her more often.

Q: Because your ears stick out, your nickname is Yoda?

A: Yes. When I push my hair back and my ears show.

Q: Usually when a female idol’s ears stick out, she gets called an “elf.”

A: Elf? I didn’t even know who Yoda was at first. To be honest, when I looked him up, we looked alike in my eyes too.

Q: When you talk, should I say you almost don’t intone? Like you purposefully try not to show emotions.

A: I’m not the type to show emotions in front of people. All the members have had times where they cried in front of the camera. Only I haven’t.

Q: Even during harsh “Sixteen,” you didn’t cry.

A: That’s right. But when I call my mom I cry easily.

Q: Then are you always holding yourself in?

A: I can’t get used to crying where there is many people. I cry alone in my room, or when I’m talking with my mom…

Q: Are you a little different as a person when you speak your native language versus Korean?

A: I’m the same. My way of speaking is a little slow - I’ve been like that since before I came to Korea, and I’m like that in Korea.

Q: No jealousy?

A: Ey. Ah, I’ve heard things like that before - “but Tzuyu isn’t that pretty.” People can think differently so I don’t concern myself much with it.

Q: If you could express yourself in one word?

A: Atmosphere?
