LOONA Chuu Reveals How Close She is to Co-Members
Though they are scattered all over the place, Chuu revealed that the LOONA members are still each other's dependable best friends, whom she relies on and supports the most. They always stick together through thick and thin, whether in tough times or happy moments, proving their close-knit bond.
She revealed they just hung out recently, saying, "Just a week ago, I went skiing together with the members. When we're bored, we often meet up spontaneously. We eat together when hungry, do nail art, watch TV, reminisce about the past, feel embarrassed together, and so on."
Chuu expressed her affection for the LOONA members, calling them "the people who I can quickly open up to and the first ones I seek out when I'm having a hard time," stating, "They're so attentive that if my voice sounds even slightly off when I call, they rush over."
She revealed this is not something just anyone can do; even her family members hesitate to rush over during trying times. Chuu added, "They're precious friends who worry about me the most when I'm struggling."
The LOONA members, who are now housed by different agencies, have regrouped as girl groups Loossemble and ARTMS. Chuu remarked, "The members have been companions who have watched each other grow for a long time," adding, "While watching the stage, I felt like, 'So this is what I wanted to do', and I felt like I was flying. Seeing the things we talked about wanting to try come true beside me makes me proud."
Showing off how proud she is of her co-members, Chuu sent heartfelt encouragement to the members.
Chuu also revealed that there is a group chat where only members communicate. The group chat title includes the symbol of a moon, symbolizing LOONA.
Chuu then dubs the LOONA members her lifelong friends, saying, "Adults say they have lifelong friends from school, but in idol culture, I think members who were once a team are considered lifelong friends. Since we've been through tough times and happy moments together, we understand each other the best. In the past, we were business partners, but now we're companions. They're the people I look forward to."
