TWICE FACTS AND UPDATE

TWICE interview on GQ Korea- Dahyun

Q: We saw you chatting with the reality camera earlier.

A: Since our job is like this. I think always seeing cameras around has made me like them. From the start, PD Park Jinyoung has told us that TWICE is always natural, that that’s good, so I want to show myself frankly. And you have to always think well to show well in front of the camera.

Q: That you’re not camera-conscious seems to be your strong point.

A: It’s just interesting having a camera around. Like doing this (winking and showing a victory sign) or this (waving a hand high) is just fun, because they film me through it all. When there isn’t a camera around, we film videos ourselves. We want to because it’s fun(ny).

Q: Haha. Was filming for “Real Men” comfortable?

A: Ah… honestly I thought I would do really well. But actually being there, the atmosphere was frightening and if you don’t do well… I became rigid with fright, down to my hands and feet. Because I’m someone who dances I thought I’d do very well during close-order drills. My blood type is O, so I’m the type to go with the flow too, but I didn’t do well between being so nervous and constantly scolded. I regret it quite a bit.

Q: And it’s not like you could play around like usual.

A: Yes. To be honest, I usually take an hour and a half to shower. There’s something leisurely about warm water. But there, they give you twenty minutes to wash your face, your hair, shower, brush your teeth, and dress. After returning to the dorms, I finish showering in thirty minutes now, so the members say “Dahyun unnie, you changed.”

Q: You use your hands a lot when you talk. Your hands just don’t stop.

A: Is that so? It’s because the music here is fun. I get much more excited just with music… I think I really like the sound of the music and my heart pumping when I’m on stage. That someone’s looking at me. It’s very thrilling and fun to have a response.

Q: So that’s why you introduce yourself as “TWICE’s Dahyun, in charge of excitement”? Since five months have passed since debut, what if you were to make a new one?

A: On the team, I’m in charge of being the lighting director. Lighting because of my pale skin (laughs). This is very embarrassing.

Q: If you could have anything from the members, what would you pick?

A: There’s Tzuyu’s longness, and Jihyo unnie’s big eyes… Ah, honestly I’m grateful for my double-lidless eyes, so I don’t want to change that. Hm. This is a hard question. Ah! Jihyo unnie’s big voice. A resonant voice with that healthy feeling. I envy it.

Q: A side of yourself that’s unexpected from how you are seen?

A: That I’m unexpectedly serious and calm?

Q: Ey, really?

A: Yes. I’m calm. I sleep quietly when at the dorms. Manager unnie, please say something. It really is like that, I’m just excited because of the music playing right now.
