"Chaeryeong, what's your favorite girl group these days? (aside from ITZY)."
She quickly answered:
"KIOL (KISS OF LIFE)."
When fans saw this, they immediately understood why she recently randomly posted a cover of "Midas Touch" on TikTok, the recent comeback song of KISS OF LIFE.

- "Natty and Chaeryeong interaction is needed again."
- "Chaeryeong slayed this concept."
- "Kissy and Midzy, how are we doing?"
- "OMG, the dance we thought Chaeryeong would never do "
With the catchy and sultry discography of KIOF, netizens are guessing that one of the reasons Chaeryeong liked the quartet was because of their concept that perfectly matched the idol's music and choreography preferences.
However, fans think that Chaeryeong is also showing affection to its members especially Natty, whom she trained with together for a long time under JYP Entertainment.
Aside from appearing in "Sixteen" together, a survival program created TWICE, they are also prospective trainees who were supposed to debut together under ITZY. Unfortunately, only Chaeryeong made it to the final cut.
After leaving JYP, Natty joined Pledis's survival show, "Idol School" which birthed fromis_9, but after being eliminated, she decided to debut as a soloist under Swing Entertainment. In 2020, she signed with S2 Entertainment and debuted with KISS OF LIFE.
Despite promoting under different labels, Chaeryeong continued to show her close relationship with Natty by supporting her team, KISS OF LIFE.
On the other hand, ITZY, the group to which Chaeryeong belongs is continuing its momentum in the K-pop scene with its ITZY 2ND WORLD TOUR, "Born to Be."
After completing their European concert leg on the 5th, the quintet will then grace Japan starting with its concert in Tokyo (May 17-19) and Osaka (May 22).
In June, they will visit North America including Seattle as well as Oakland, Los Angeles, Sugar Land, Irving, Atlanta, Fairfax, Newark, and Chicago. They will also go to Toronto and finish the tour after their performances in Taiwan, Manila, Philippines and Hong Kong from July to August.
