OH MY GIRL YooA's Shocking Revelation on Battling Self-Doubt — ’I Used to Have Low...'

YOOA, a prominent member of the renowned K-pop girl group OH MY GIRL, recently disclosed her battle with low self-esteem during an interview centered around her latest solo album, "Borderline."

In a candid revelation, YOOA shared her past struggles with confidence and self-worth, shedding light on the challenges faced by K-pop idols behind the glamorous facade.

Speaking to the press, she reflected on the pressures of the industry and the impact of constant scrutiny from both the public and insiders.

"I used to have low self-esteem; I lacked confidence. There were many timid aspects about myself. Being part of the K-pop industry, you're constantly exposed to rumors and assessment from both the public and industry insiders. I constantly reminded myself not to get swept away by them and completely lose myself."

Navigating External Pressures

When questioned about her coping mechanisms amidst external pressures, YOOA emphasized the importance of confronting worries and doubts for meaningful personal growth.

She acknowledged the days filled with self-doubt and emotional turmoil, revealing moments of vulnerability and resilience in her journey.

"There were many days when I felt inadequate and upset. I cried a lot on those days. There were moments when I fell into a dilemma, thinking, 'I love dancing, but I'm too scared to dance in front of people now.' But in the end, I think those experiences became the driving force that helped me overcome everything."

Triumph Over Adversity

Despite the challenges, YOOA expressed pride in her progress and the lessons learned along the way. With a heartfelt smile, she commended herself for surmounting obstacles and staying true to her passion, marking each milestone as a testament to her growth and resilience.

"Those moments felt frightening, and left a mark on my heart. However, I want to commend myself for overcoming them and say, 'Good job. That is how you've come this far.'"

Debuting with OH MY GIRL in April 2015, YOOA captivated audiences with her doll-like features, exceptional talents, and unique vocal prowess. Her solo endeavors, starting in September 2020, have showcased her versatility and artistic depth, with "Borderline" marking her third successful solo album.
