We’ve had amazing guests so far

Such a fabulous guest is here
She is a fantastic singer
and Youtuber
She attracts millions of people
This is Sola!
Hi
Nice to see you Nuna
Ahaha
I’m wearing Leopard for today! / Ah
We collaborated on a song called 
That’s how we met and even today
She is here for 
Oh I should’ve worn leopard
Ah / Ah I have leopard clothes at home…
Actually I looked forward to it.
Haha
No it was a joke
How have you been up to lately?
Lately I’m….
doing some Youtube
and having fun
Oh
Your channel is too popular to just have some fun!
(envy) your channel is massive (envy)
Can you let us know about something like
special upcoming contents?
Ah recently
I already talked about this before on another show
I want to try an uninhabited island survival project
like bushycraft?
I’m leaving soon!
Ah really?
I went to an uninhabited island on 2 Days and 1 Night
There was literally no one
It was very tough
Omg
I think it’d be great
if you prepare properly
Ah in fact
I’m planning to bring nothing
Ah you are going to regret
You will definitely regret a lot
I won’t bring any extra cloth and no shower
and the next day
I will come back the next day
Is it a caveman project? / Exactly haha
so that was my plan
but many people have stopped me
I think I should bring some stuff.
A lot of fans might be waiting for it.
I’m just
having so much fun
solarsido / Yeah
Without further ado, let’s get started
What were you like in your childhood?
Oh haha wow
Umm I was very quiet
Uh really?
Yes really quiet
and I was an introvert
How old were you?
When I was in primary school
Primary school
I used to be silent
and hate to make presentation in front of others
I was like that
Did you have some friends? Period
Friends lol
I had only one friend.
just one! / yeah only one
When I was in second grade
as I didn’t have other friends
so later when I became a senior
I was being bullied
Ah by other friends?
Yes
You know, when going on a picnic, a type of friends who sit in the back seat of a bus
by that kind of friends
That’s why I always
sat next to my teacher
or back seat of a teacher
I always sat like that
How come did they bully you?
I don’t know.
Since my close friend started to hang out with them
and that happened
I became alone
They were like
They threw snacks to me
Seriously?
They didn’t mean to share their snacks, did they?
Ahahaha
Probably they did (taking the joke)
But I was too quiet
and shy
so I was just sitting there
Just looking in front of me
That kind of person get hurts more, don’t they?
It hurt me a lot back then
Ah really hah (pity)
It’s really unexpected
I thought you would’ve been outgoing
and such an insider / No way
I thought you would’ve had many friends
and really popular
And then
I went to different middle school
Intentionally?
In some way, yes I did
I intended to go to different school
Since middle school
Character wise I became more active
I guess you met good friends at that time
Yes friends who I still hang out with
Ah still hang out with them
Even though you had the emotional wound
I guess your friends played a key role
in opening your mind at that time
That’s true
because, given that you used to be an introvert
got hurt and the bully threw snacks to you
but you could get close with the friends
When you were a little, what were you immersed in the most?
When I was a little?
Hmm When I was a kid
I didn’t have many thoughts that much / OMG
I mean when I was younger
I didn’t worry about anything at all
Didn’t you worry about your future or career?
Nope. Not at all
Just every single day was so fun
If I was worried about something, it was like ‘what I’m going to do tomorrow?
Haha
live only for today?
I just lived each day
Then when did you start to practice to do music as a career?
I think I was quite late
When I was a college student?
Ah really?
Then you hadn’t had a dream of becoming a singer before college?
No I wanted to become a flight attendant
I was preparing for it too
That’s why I decided my major
related to tourism
It sounds like a good fit for you
I was preparing for it
But after learning a bit
I found out it wasn’t right for me
so my career changed from that to this and that’s how I’m here
What made you change?
You know there are some places like Hongdae
I was singing there somehow
Should I say an insider?
sort of?
Industry insider?
Yeah a music industry insider
told me ‘give it a try’ and back then I said
‘No, I don’t want to’
You rejected but?
What the guy said was stuck in my head / The opportunity?
Yes so I was like
Am I good at it?
Since then, I started to have auditions
I guess I auditioned for about 50 agencies
Omg
But I didn’t get a call back from any agencies
How come?
I was too arrogant, didn’t even practice
I just had a confidence like ‘I’ll make it anyway’
When you were failing 50 times?
Yes for some reason haha / Wow you are amazing
Such a strong mindset
Most people are usually intimidated, when they consistently fail
hahaha
I kept failing and at the beginning
I thought well this entertainment…
This agency can’t see my ability
‘This ent isn’t for me’ I just thought like that
As I consistently failed
my parents didn’t want me to try anymore
There was only one audition left
so I decided that if I fail this time again
Then I would stop
Then the last entertainment was…
The last one was my present agency
RBW wow
think it was a fate
Because of so many previous rejections, now you are singing as Sola
Now you might appreciate the other 50 agencies?
That’s right haha
Thank you for rejecting me lol
Anyway, you’ve been working for so far
Is there any specific aspect of you that you want people to look into the most?
my…music wise
I hope people see it broadly
rather than focusing on one aspect?
About my works
When I do something, I’m still me, and when I do other things, I’m still me too.
When it comes to my change
I hope people don’t think of it solely negatively
Your solo album was exceptional
You showed us what people never tried before
I personally thought that your vocal and music created a balance
I was so amused
Many people said
‘This album isn’t what I expected’
I heard it a lot of times
I think that kind of reaction is great
Because when my another song come out next time
I will look different compared to how I look now
so I want to show my different aspects to audience
As a solo musician, it made us look forward to your next album
If your new album comes out next time
What is she going to try this time?
Your head shape really looked good on the head shape
Haha
It was excellent opportunity to show your wonderful head shape
Sure haha
Is there anything that people misunderstand or exaggerate about you?
any judgment like ‘Sola will be like this’
About MAMAMOO
People think we are so funny
amusing and cheerful
so when people meet us in person
They are shocked
because we don’t really talk a lot and are quiet
The thing is that if there are only four of us, we are loud / Right
but when there are another people
We don’t usually talk a lot
so when we stay silent
People misunderstand that you are upset
Everyone thinks
Mamamoo
They are so rude
We’ve heard it so many times
‘What’s wrong with them, are they upset?’ something like this
I guess people have made the particular image about you guys
and they think that’s all about you
True
That’s why there is some misunderstanding
for you
What attitudes or values do you intend to stick to?
The most important thing in my life
First, It’s important not to lose confidence when doing this job
I believe this is the most important thing
So I always keep this in my mind
and also
I don’t overthink
You try not to get too anxious?
When I’m overthinking, I gradually lost my confidence
Okay
I think they are linked each other
so I pursue a simple life
I don’t have many thoughts
That’s great
You said that you didn’t have many considerations when you were a little and even now..?
Ahahaha
Ahahaha
When I was a kid, it was like
Literally
There was nothing in my head at all
but now I’m working so
It’s impossible not to think at all
But there are tons of people who are worried a lot around me
and just seeing them gives me a headache
So I’m trying not to worry as much as I can
Wow
I think it’s really required
When people are overthinking and falling into it
It ruins many people’s life and its balance
before even finding the way to get out if it
I think it’s a really good value
Now let’s talk about music
What aspect of your music do you want people to focus on?
Just my song?
Your song, music itself?
I think music itself
Well.. of course
Visual aspect or any other things
They are important too
but I think the song is the most important thing
In my song, there is everything about me
While writing the song and lyrics
That means you want music to be main
Is there any particular song that you hope people would pay more attention to?
For me
Because  is my first solo album
I have a sentimental attachment to it
Then in that song
Is there any specific lyrics that you want people to know?
The first sentence is that
‘I’ve been living doing everything I want to until now’
In real life, I’ve tried to realize my ideas
in the middle part
‘Spit it out with my hot lips’
This means I’m going to spit out whatever I want and don’t care what others think
Surprisingly, in the 
I think the meaning of lyrics
reflect your thoughts very well
that you talked about before in this interview
doesn’t it?
You’ve been doing what you want with confidence
I guess you might get everything done quickly in a real life
For example, when you need to buy something
Ah about buying stuff, I’m not really quick
Ah only for work?
Only about working?
Wow really?
When I buy some clothes
I have to try every clothes and think ‘does it fit me?’
‘’look good on me?’ and take off
and go back home
and then if I think ‘I should’ve got the cloth’
then I go there again and get it the next day
Ah
I put a lot of thought into it
All the sudden? Hmm
You tend to be careful about small things
I overthink about small things though
You are unique…
(accept) hahahaha
Present me vs Old me
Present Sola who are working as a team and also making solo albums too
Old Sola who just started doing music and auditioned
just having fun. Between them, who is happier?
present me
Oh are you sure?
Yes I’m sure I think now I’m happier
Back then I had only confidence and self-inflated ego
didn’t have money
I was being silly a little bit too
Ah in fact
because I went through that
That motivates me to try to do my best now
so I think my present life is better
Excluding music if you can achieve another dream?
Resort business! / Resort business?
Yeah haha / It’s very specific
hahaha
Are you looking for a land?
Ahahaha
When you go there to travel
It’s super nice
There is a garden, swimming pool and everything.
seeing the resort
I always wonder who is the owner?
I thought like that all the time
I actually searched the internet either.
Then what if
You could have resorts all over the world
You would be successful that much
but if you were not allowed to do music
Ah…!
Between a singer and resort business, which one are you going to choose?
It would be depend on my age
Oh!
In my age of course I would choose music
but if I turn 60 or 70
I would like to try the business
Then can I get annual membership?
I’ll get you permanent membership
Thank you
I’m going to go there with a cane
This is our last signature question of 
Kim Yong Sun VS Solar
Who is more important for you?
Oh…!
I think I’ve been thinking too much today
Haha
I’m sorry / hahahaha
ah…
Ahaha
I think
Kim Yong Sun / Okay
Of course Solar is also me
so she is really important and precious
but when I’m Kim Yong Sun
I think I’m more genuine
When I treat others around me, I prefer treating them as Kim Yong Sun too
and even for fans too
They like when I’m solar of course
but when I treat my fans
I would like to be Kim Yong Sun
When it comes to relationship?
Do you mean you want to build a genuine relationship
linked directly to your life?
I think I try my best to be Kim Yong Sun for my fans
That’s why you can communicate deeply with your fans / Yes
