When asked if she’s ever experienced burnout, Jihyo confessed it was during contract renewal season.
It’s been seven years since I debuted, but I still worry about what Park Jihyo, not TWICE’s Jihyo, would do in the future. We can’t be idols for 20-30 years, right?

Regarding the hardest moments in life, she chose the COVID-19 era.
I felt like I was dying just staying home. I would do burpees and clean the house. I caught COVID right as we started the first week of music shows. I kept practicing while watching fan cams.

She also talked honestly about the burden of being the leader.
“When I first renewed my contract, I wanted to say that I wanted to stop being the leader. But with my personality, I know there has to be a villain. Someone who knows how to criticize and be harsh when needed.
I used to think that leaders didn’t have much to do. But now, I feel like I might die five years earlier than my expected age.”
