[OSEN = Journalist Jang Woo-young] Former Girl’s Day member Jang Hyeri revealed that she received a sponsorship proposal.
On the 3rd, the YouTube channel ‘Chaejeol Gojanghae’ released a video titled ‘Nonono’ with the content ‘Did you fall apart after drinking?’ featuring appearances by Shin Jung-hwan, Kang Byung-kyu, exorcist Lim Deok-young, and Jang Hyeri, discussing drinking controversies and their personal experiences.
Kang Byung-kyu shared an anecdote about meeting Kim Ho-joong at a drinking party, stating, “There are people who casually invite you to a drinking party, leading to potentially controversial situations. We call them ‘devils’.
In response, Jang Hyeri said, “I’ve had such experiences too. One of the toughest parts is when someone suggests, ‘Let’s have a drink and talk’. They say you need to build such connections to succeed,” adding, “Drinking and even playing golf are basic. I don’t drink well and don’t enjoy such settings, which made me wonder if I need to participate in this or find my path another way.”
Jang Hyeri particularly mentioned, “When I was a rookie, a very famous representative invited male rookies to sing. He then said, ‘I’ll support you, but you have to be my girlfriend’. I was taken aback and said, ‘I don’t think so’. He mentioned female celebrities he ‘made successful’ through such relationships, citing them as ‘success models’.
Jang Hyeri added, “At a young age, my pride was really hurt. It made me determined to succeed on my own terms without resorting to such measures.”
Meanwhile, Jang Hyeri was an original member of Girl’s Day and a former member of the band Bebop. She garnered attention after appearing on ‘I Can See Your Voice 5’ in 2018 and debuted as a trot singer in August 2020. /[email protected]
