SOWON of K-pop girl group GFRIEND expressed how much she wants the group, which has been inactive for years, to return with all the members. On June 16, YouTuber/hairstylist Lee Sung-kyu posted a video of himself styling SOWON on his YouTube channel. In the video, the hairstylist discussed the recent surge of internet conversation surrounding GFRIEND and said, "Many people have been asking questions like, 'Why did GFRIEND disband?', in the comments.
" SOWON responded, "We haven't disbanded! Many reports said our group disbanded, though. And now, a lot of people think we have." When the hairstylist mentioned that several clips from GFRIEND's past performances are going viral and getting great feedback online, SOWON said the members are aware of this.
"We share those clips on our group chat and discuss how people still remember GFRIEND and speak positively about us. We shall be on a stage someday, so I decided to practice extensively to meet the expectations.", SOWON said, expressing her will for the group's return.
SOWON also mentioned VIVIZ, a group that three members from GFRIEND, EUNHA, SINB, and UMJI, formed. "VIVIZ recently held a concert, and GFRIEND fans must have wished for us other GFRIEND members to join them on the stage.", she remarked, "But we did not participate.
It was VIVIZ's concert, and they were the ones who should have the spotlight." "Plus, I believe it should be a full-fledged comeback if GFRIEND were to be performing with full members. Whatever you do, it.
