On the 18th, Yuju held an online press conference for her first solo album REC. and talked about how she felt. ŌĆ£I think GFRIENDŌĆÖs Yuji and solo singer Yuju are both me. I donŌĆÖt make distinctions between the two,ŌĆØ she shared. ŌĆ£There is definitely pressure in going solo. The members used to fill what I lacked, but now I have to do everything myself.ŌĆØ However, she shared excitement, saying, ŌĆ£While making the music, I got to understand emotions that I had not dealt with before. And that helped me break away from my fears about showing myself.ŌĆØ Yuju then showed love for her GFRIEND members. ŌĆ£The time I spent with the members has made me who I am now. They will forever be precious to me,ŌĆØ she commented. ŌĆ£They are showing me full support. When the teaser was released, Sowon jokingly told me that itŌĆÖs the teaser that she had watched the most in her life.ŌĆØ After GFRIENDŌĆÖs disbandment, Yuju signed with Kang DanielŌĆÖs label KONNECT Entertainment. During the interview, the singer thanked him for his support. ŌĆ£Last year, Kang Daniel was doing a live broadcast. But I played the song really loud in a practice room, and the sound leaked out. But he quickly took action and prevented a major accident,ŌĆØ she recalled. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖd like to take this opportunity to thank him. I heard that he covered it up as ŌĆśwhite noise,‘ŌĆØ she added. Meanwhile, Yuju will release her solo debut album REC. at 6 PM KST today. ItŌĆÖs her comeback to the K-pop scene after a year and two months. She participated in the song making of all five tracks, including the title song ŌĆ£Play.ŌĆØ
