When host Tak Jae-hoon asked “When Choa appeared (on our show), she said the most pitiful person was Choa herself. What do you think?“, Hyejeong replied, “I watched the episode with Choa. She was the first to carry out her own activities. Didn’t he realize his dreams?Tak Jae-hoon, however, bluntly added:But first he had to leave to survive.“
Hyejeong commented on Choa: “She left to pursue what she wanted. I never considered her a pitiful person.“When asked if she thought Choa was doing well, she said:”We’re on different paths, but I think she’s doing well on her own.”
When asked about her relationship with other AOA members, Hyejeong revealed: “I am not in contact with any of the members.
