Her live performance is really good but it depends on her neck condition. 1-1.Unique Pronunciation She became famous for her singing voice but surprisingly her normal voice is also unique. Some people even criticized her tongue-short-sounded pronunciation, as they think she is showing off like she is being cute.Eventually, when she appeared on the Korean TV channel called ‘My Little Television’, she admitted her pronunciation is not good. “When my friends heard my song ‘Galaxy’s chorus ‘cuz I’m a pilot’, they misunderstood it as summer party”, she said. She even made people think as if she were a Korean resident who was living in a foreign country. Because of criticism, she fixed her pronunciation now, but many people miss her previous voice since they thought it was better. Anyway, her English pronunciation is quite good. 1-2. Activity She does live performances on many festivals including University festivals. When she was about to sing her song ‘Mean’, she made to volunteer one of her fans to join her and it was a tough competition to participate.Also, she also does a little dance when she sings her song.

Most of her song that was released was based on her story, but she wrote her song ‘Fight day’ and ‘Hard to Love’ by referencing her friend’s story.Besides, there was a time when she cried while she was singing ‘Hard to Love’. When people say that they guessed ‘Hard to love’ was based on her true story and thinking she is missing her ex. However, she clarified the song was her friend’s story and people stopped their guesses. After her debut, she wrote 38 of 49 songs all by herself. Recently, when she appeared on the Korean music channel ‘The sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’, she stated she wrote more than 100 songs and said one of her best songs is ‘To my Youth’. “To my Youth’s lyrics, itself shows the moment of my dreams pretty well.I wrote this song to comfort myself, but it became meaningful to me because the song has also given comfort to the listeners.”, she explained. 2-2.

Daughter of the sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’? Jiyeong An appears steadily in Sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’. After her debut on 2016, she was casted to the sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’ and sang her song ‘Galaxy’. Later on, her song climbed back to the chart and people guessed her the daughter of the sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’(Korean people call her as a daughter of the sketchbook of ‘Huiyeol Yoo’ since her song climbed back to the chart after she appeared in his channel). 3. DigressionShe stated that she like ‘Amy Winehouse’ and affected by her and also her pronunciation too. When she said this, her fan website was named ‘WINE’.Her favorite foods are Kimchi Fired Rice, Tomatoes, and nuts.Her first precious treasure is RED ICKLE.After her album ‘Red Diary Page.1’ was released, there were reviews that her voice became scratchy. Compared to her Red Planet’s Hidden track ‘jotago malhaejuh(please say that is good)’, it can be easily noticed that the bass of her tone became thick and her singing voice(or tone) became lower.On 2016, she participated 45th competition of the Korean channel ‘Masked Singer’, using a fake name, ‘Rabbit that flies away time’. She sang ‘Love In the Milky Way Café’ of 10cm with suspicious Hat seller and sang Jung In’s ‘Rainy Season’ with her opponent ‘It’s a heart, heart!’ queen. Korean celebrity ‘Gangta’ noticed her as soon as he heard her sing. That’s because he heard her singing Jung In’s ‘Rainy Season’ when Jiyeong was a Star Night(Korea’s Radio Program) DJ. After the Masked singer ended, Gangta apologized he has noticed her too soon. The reason for her participation in the Masked Singer was to be famous since people did not recognize their songs. And she sang one more song which was Zion.T’s ‘Eat’ while she was on the program ‘Masked Singer’.On the radio, she said she was a fan of Girls’ Generation.When she is singing ‘Mean’, she is attractive.On the 14th of March, 2018, when she was placed under academic probation because of her tough schedule, she temporarily stopped to work as a singer to concentrate on her bachelor’s degree. Later, she came back on the 24th of May.She is one of the singers who feel more attractive when watching her live performance in person. Many fans think she is attractive when she does her little dance and during her small talk on the stage. Not only she is good at her live performance skills, but also good to make people participate and cheer when she is singing. That is why people are saying she has some skills to make other people her fan. She is also famous for being good to soldiers. If you were a soldier who is on a leave, you have a higher chance to participate in her performance on stage. Nowadays, she does not do that, but her kindness to soldiers has not changed. When she was in Paris with her former member ‘Jiyun Woo’, they were taking a video of Paris. While doing that, she envied the couple in front of her and she instantly sang a song and that song became the current released song, ‘Some’. Seems like she is really emotionally sensitive. She even sobbed while she was singing on stage.Many people say that she looks alike the Korean actor ‘Dami Kim’. Jiyeong also knows this and she mentioned it on VLIVE. She keeps a white companion dog named ‘Leo’. She kept the dog since 2016 and showed her dog while she appeared on the show ‘ON & OFF’ to show her daily life. She does not like mint chocolate.She picked ‘Bom’, ‘Some’, and ‘Travel’ as her Top 3 songs.On the 3rd of July, 2020, she unfollowed her former member’s Instagram. Therefore, bad blood between them became an issue again.She says her ankle is very thin. She could grab her whole ankle with one hand. 4.

I think you're married.- I married in 2005 and gave birth to a daughter in 2012. Q. You've been acting for 20 years; have you ever been rocked by meeting different parts and establishing a filmography by switching between the stage, the screen, and the cathode ray tube? - I got lucky with the timing. The toddler arrived just when the game was becoming difficult. I don't believe I struggled because I had a natural break from labor and parenting. There was also a viewpoint during the break that might look at the area of 'play' more objectively. My primary stage was a play, therefore I only acted in the media when the play timetable and schedule coincided. Then, I expanded my scope to include media activities so that I could care for my child while also pursuing my acting career. I'm still plotting a play. Q. What characters do you want to play as you pursue a career as an actor?-The weight or volume of the role you play is unimportant if the job is good. I can't think of a specific role or character. Female characters with subjectivity and life pique my interest. It could be a character who already has subjectivity, one who expresses subjectivity while it is not subjective, or one who loses subjectivity. It doesn't matter which way it goes, but I think it's a good character to see the woman's past, present, and future changes so she can live her life at work. Q: How do you feel about your role in “The Glory?”I reflected on the brightness of this woman, who was born on pleasant days rather than dark ones. It is a character who made me think about what happened after the character rather than what happened before the character.5. Pieces 5-1.
