Monologue

Having had the dream of being a singer since I was young, being reborn as B1A4's member Sandeul is like having experienced a turning point in my life. Climbing the stairs step by step being reborn from Lee Junghwan into Sandeul, I think I will be really happy if I can sing well. Every time I am so thankful and touched for the fact that I am able to sing, able to be on stage with my music and able to express that music. An overwhelming life that cannot be expressed in words! Of course it is a lie to say that I do not dream of escaping the difficulties along the way or my lifestyle. If I was given such a day, I want to go to the beach and endulge myself in the sounds of the waves. The sounds of the breaking waves on the rocks feel like that they will shoot right through my heart. I feel that the music more beautiful than anything sound in the world are the sounds of nature. And after that day ends, I will return to my life as if nothing has happened. When I have achieved my dreams and goals, I will have a love that is sometimes like that of a friend and sometimes like that of a lover. To be honest, hmm... Even though when I walk along the streets nowadays I stare at couples holding hands affections... I don't think I will be able to give an answer to someone who appears suddenly and asks me out. In future I will continue to do as I have been doing - to work hard and walk a proper 'path'. In order to live a life that I can be proud of, I will hold onto my beginner's mindset and be thankful for my surroundings. If I live that way, the people around me will all be happy and that will naturally be the 'path' for me to be happy too. 

Ah! Please don't touch my food! I bought gummies but I don't know if someone ate them because the next day there wasn't not even one left! Heuk...!

Q&A

Official Sandeul

I think my image that you see on screen is a little exaggerated compared to how I am like usually. When the camera focuses on me, I am still nervous and excited so I do think that I act more brightly. But other people say that that is exactly how I am like. 

Unofficial Sandeul

On official broadcasts I am very distracted, unfocused and noisy. Even though you may not believe it, I actually real~ly like quiet things. I really like the solitary feeling of sitting alone at a cafe with good atmosphere sipping on a cup of Americano. As expected all of you do not believe it. Everyone, I really like being quiet without getting disturbed by anyone~

Must have item for Sandeul

Even though I am not a mermaid but I definitely need my voice. My mood for the day is influenced by the condition of my throat. I am really happy on the days my voice comes out well but on the days that no matter how I warm up my and relax my throat my voice doesn't come out well I really feel like I lost everything in the world. On days that we have music program broadcasts and my condition is not good, my personality in a whole becomes rough. Not only am I responsible for checking and taking care of my voice, I also really hate having to show a less than perfect image on stage. It is not something I can blame others for so I am even more upset.

Recently I devoted in most time?

Ever since I started going on the program where we sing famous songs [T/N: Immortal Song], all throughout the week I have to think of the song that I will be singing and that has caused me a lot of stress. But I believe that stress to be good. It is amazing to be able to revive a new song by practicing, drawing out the hidden charm of the song and putting in my original personality. It may be a little complicated, and I have twice the amount to think about since the comeback is nearing as well... but both are very important to me.

Now since up to me?

It is thanks to my family. friends and fans that I am who I am today. My family may have objected (to me being a singer) but I think they were looking forward to it as well. My mother secretly cheered for me, and if it weren't for my friends I would not be singing like this today. I shared the love for music with my friends with a innocent heart - I never want to forget that mindset, and I am still singing today treasuring that mindset! And to the fans I am always so thankful I could cry, I love you~

My role model, a true mentor

My vocal trainer from when I was in high school was also my emotional support then. He had something he said often - "before you become a singer, you need to become a person". He taught us who were so passionate about music with a very sincere and innocent heart. Up until today he is still the same. Even though I have not been able to see him regularly, I am always thankful to him who introduced me to singing~

This is I'm the best

What could there be? I want to be able to express myself better in more genres. The members all have very distinct vocals so there is a subtle tendency for me to be competitive. But right now I feel like that it is more important to learn everything and work hard, so I will delay this question for the future.

First thought when you work?

When I'm recording, I will think of the situation behind the lyrics and try to match it to my experiences. So I will usually try to hurry understand that situation. When you read the lyrics from start to end it also feels like an episode from a drama so it definitely feels different singing after reading it all. Understanding the song is most important, then if there are situations that I have not experienced I would approach it by putting myself into those shoes and empthaize with it.

Motto of my life

I feel like right now, it is "singing"? I really want to go well! When I was young, my goal was to be the best amongst people of the same age. I want to catch people's attention through my voice. I believe that as the years pass I will be doing better. When people have such greed, it is a simultation for a better mood.

Just before sleeping

Jinyoung hyung bothering me! It is a 3-level bunk bed and because I lost in rock paper scissors I'm sleeping on the extra pullout bed. When I try to sleep, Jinyoung hyung always keeps me from sleeping. Just as I am about to fall asleep, he will suddenly stick his hand from beside me and start touching my cheeks. It's really tiring because he doesn't let me sleep. Hoo~! Hyung, let's sleep, sleep please!

Childhood / School days

My childhood

Little Sandeul who always participated in school arts festivals or school events! I did MCing, and I liked taking initative in everything. I was a busybody and I had a lot of confidence, but there was an incident that caused me to stop doing so. I had a younger cousin who was pretty like a foreign child model and my elder sister kept comparing me to her. The sad story of my young heart being hurt and my confidence level dropping.

My childhood obsession

I really liked the toy cars where you could step on the pedals and drive it yourself so there was an incident where I nearly died because I wanted to have it so much. Back at that time I could not have a toy car but now I am old enough to buy a real now so I'm amazed. Hahaha1

My talent

I was good at music and physical education. I was mainly strong in the music and physical education areas. In particular I always liked music and was good at it. Ah... This sounds like self-praise, so embarrassing. Haha!

My anniversary love

I do. Of course I did. The peperos meant for my friends were bought in a bundle, whereas I prepared the ones for the person I like with more effort put into the packaging. It is nothing fancy but just slightly better? I think I thought hard about how to not make it obvious that I liked her.

Anniversary members

Jinyoung hyung~ Gongchan would have received a lot too... Gongchan would have been hard to get close to, whereas Jinyoung hyung would have had a lot of popularity.

Remember the fight

I don't remember fighting, but I remember getting scolded. On the first day of night classes in my first year of high school, everyone in class skipped it... And instead of going elsewhere, I went home. The next day our homeroom teacher got the attendance list so our class as a whole got punished and scolded. Being geting punished I was so scared I broke out in cold sweat.

Listen to reprimanded

I wanted to ride the bicycle at home to the academy so I asked for permission from my father. He said it was dangerous and refused to give me permission but I was so stubborn about it... In the end I got beaten... (Sad)

Future dream

Continue to be a singer. I have never thought about anything apart from being a singer, even though my parents have expressed their wishes of me being a vocal trainer.
