Apink's Jung Eun-ji: "Last year was not like me, I felt depressed"
Korean fashion magazine CeCi's April issue will feature Jung Eun-ji (23) in an exclusive photo spread and interview.
Jung Eun-ji (Apink), who swept the music charts and music shows with the title song "Hopefully Sky" from her first solo album last year, has recently expanded her range of activities by participating in the OST for the JTBC drama "Strong Woman Do Bong-soon".
Announced that she will release her second solo album in April, she expressed her desire for music.
Jung Eun-ji said, "I've got a studio now, so I'm learning how to compose songs while looking over my shoulder, and I'm steadily writing lyrics. I've started learning the piano again, and it's really fun. Last year was not like me, I felt depressed, but since I got a studio, it's gotten a lot better."
She also showed her affection for her family, which is already well known.
"Although there is an 8-year age difference between me and my brother, he is really kind and cute. When I go back to my hometown in Busan and hang out with friends until late, he sends me messages saying, 'Noona (older sister), please come home soon.'" Jung Eun-ji, who was comforted by the songs she listened to with her brother, said, "When you reach my age, you often have worries. I want to make music that people of my generation, such as job-hunting students and first-year employees, can relate to."

It feels good to read the article and listen to Eun-ji's music.
It's been a while since I've listened to Eun-ji's music, but her refreshing voice is pleasant and touches my heart.
166 million views... she is a wonderful and friendly singer after all.
She has been busy with her constant demand, but it seems she has resumed piano lessons and is able to spend time with her family.
Being with family is a place where the heart is much more at ease than usual.
This kind of leisure time promotes personal growth.
It might be a good idea to pay attention to the changes in Eunji's singing voice.
It's been a while, so I'm concentrating on watching Apink's stage videos.
Apink's performances have become even more refined.
The pure style is a statement of "lively youth and purity".
Therefore, striving for formal perfection does not have much meaning or value.
If you dare to seek it, you have to add a disclaimer like "back then, around this time".
In the case of Apink, I feel that the "meeting performance" they showed when they came to Japan was their best.
These days, girl groups have made a complete departure from their pure style that has been honed in their formal daily lives, and are looking towards a global direction and have begun their survival by putting an adventurous, experimental style at the forefront.
Groups like TWICE, BLACKPINK, and GFRIEND are some of the examples, but girl groups that are competing by sticking to a small, "innocent style" are gradually losing ground.
The Korean wave industry is now considering overseas expansion, as K-POP has bottomed out and is on the road to recovery.
It's hard to keep track of each individual action, so it's hard to keep track of.
But when a type of girl group we've never seen before, like TWICE, BLACKPINK, or GFRIEND, appears, it catches our attention with a "what?".
The girl groups that emerged through PRODUCE 101 (Produce 101) basically took the "innocent route," which could be said to have made the presence of the three groups mentioned above stand out.
I don't know if that's the reason.
The girls that were born from PRODUCE 101 were almost unable to work by the time the selected girls group "I.O.I" finished their activities.
In other words, there should not be too much music with a pure style.
GFRIEND has a clearly pure style, but it was good that they debuted with the image of high school girls.
That was fresh and drew in young people of their generation.
They became top icons for teenagers.
TWICE used Western pop music.
Using melodies and rhythms from all over the world, they were accepted as somewhat exotic music in Korea and were used in flash mobs overseas, which increased their popularity.
I would like Apink to compete with these young girls, but they will not be able to compete suddenly unless they make some changes to their traditional pure style.
How can veteran Apink compete when the pure young girls are losing their complexion?
It is clear that one era has ended and another is about to begin.
Apinkga may no longer be at the forefront of the girls' group.
It's not that they are giving up, but I feel that if they continue as they are with Eunji at the forefront, they will be able to achieve results that are unique to Apink.
Today, I was able to fully enjoy the voices of Bomi, Eunji, Chorong, Naeun, Hayoung and Namjoo for the first time in a long time.
