In a series of candid solo interviews, Yunjin lifts the veil on her artistic process, her decision to return to her homeland of Korea, and the emotional intricacies of solo performances.

Her words resonate as a testament to her authenticity and depth as an artist, allowing fans a glimpse into the woman behind the music.

Yunjin's journey of metamorphosis began in the spotlight of the idol survival program "Produce 48" in 2018. Despite landing 26th overall and facing elimination, her experience wasn't defined by defeat alone.

"First, I was very much at peace. I was like, 'It's okay. It's fine.' And then, as time went [on], I was like, 'No, it's not fine. What am I going to do?' Then I was angry. Then I was so sad. Then I was upset. Then I felt guilty at times. Then I felt sorry again. And then, in the end, I got myself together, and I was like, 'I’m going to start a new life."

In a remarkable twist of fate, Source Music recognized her potential and nurtured her songwriting acumen even before the world witnessed the group's debut.

Reflecting on this pivotal turning point, Yunjin recounts:

"We hadn’t debuted yet, but I was very thankful that they saw something in me and gave me a push to continue developing my skills. I had made stuff in my bedroom, but never with the intention for others to hear it. It was more like 'I'm writing this just as therapy for myself.'"

As the pages of her story unfolded, Yunjin's role transcended that of a mere performer.

With time, she evolved into a versatile songwriter and composer, significantly contributing to the group's music and artistic vision.

Yunjin's aspirations for her creations extend beyond entertainment; she yearns for her music to serve as a balm for fans' hearts:

"It might be too vulnerable, but at the same time, I have this belief that there will be someone somewhere out there who will relate and derive even the smallest ounce of reassurance, confirming that they're not alone in their struggles."
