Sipping on Honesty

The 11th episode of "Jae-chin," titled "I'm looking for a friend. Please contact me.Jae-chin Ep.22 Hyuna Kim and Jae-joong," was unveiled on the "uhmg studio" YouTube channel.

During a candid exchange, Kim Jae-joong playfully inquired about Hyuna's recent indulgence in alcohol, prompting her to confess, "I've never felt that alcohol was delicious. I don't like sugary drinks and I like soju. The company encourages alcohol. That's why I started to drink."

Despite her petite stature, she shared her inclination towards feeling the effects quickly, adding, "It's so nice to know on my own these days. If I knew it quickly, I wouldn't have been able to work hard."

Embracing Freedom: On Alcohol and Independence

As the conversation delved into the liberating nature of alcohol, Kim Jae-joong remarked on the freedom that comes with inebriation.

Hyuna, however, asserted her innate freedom, stating, "I'm free even if I don't drink. Does it bother you when you drink? People feel comfortable when I'm comfortable." She reflected on her journey to independence, revealing, "I've been living in the dorm since I was an elementary school student. So I left as soon as I became an adult. That's when I wanted to have a single room. It's nice to have my own space to use a single room. I have a pet that I'm staying with now. We go to work together."
