WHATS MY DREAM: MAIZY
Maizy: Hi! This is Jang Yul, or Maizy. It’s nice to finally meet you *finger heart*
Question 1: Who is Maizy?
Maizy: So far people only know Maizy as Yul. Maizy is the idol that Yulie grew up to be. I think Maizy is a bit similar to me. We’re both extroverted but we’re also the least extroverted of the extroverts. She’s quite playful I think but her character hasn’t been introduced a lot so far. I think people will understand her more in the future
The name Jang Yul… Okay so Yul has a similarity with my real name but I don’t want to share it. The surname is a more interesting story I think. The group that made me want to debut, they have two members and I liked them both. One surname was Jung and the other was Hwang. So I was trying to decide which I wanted to use. I thought, why not combine them and have the surname Jang? So yes, now I’m Jang Yul. As for Maizy, the members gave it to me when we were choosing American names for ourselves. Apparently I look like a Maizy to them
Question 2: What about the idol behind Maizy?
Maizy: According to Nanami, people are going to fall in love with me because I’m kind. I do try to be kind, I think it’s important because you never know what someone has been through. Um… I also like coffee? It gives me energy and it tastes good… *chuckles*
Question 3: How long have you been training?
Maizy: I started training in 2020 but it was so scary because with the world situation back then I started my training at home. The company was cutting so many trainees around me and I genuinely thought I wouldn’t be kept. But when they were able to they moved me to Seoul. I was shocked when those plans were made. But it made me grateful because now I’m here
Question 4: What are your specialities?
Maizy: Hmm… my main speciality is vocal but that’s Nanami’s speciality too… I need something special to me! Perhaps elegance? I think I’m very elegant. In the street people look at me sometimes, and I think it’s because I’m elegant. I hope so… *laughs*
Question 5: Why did you want to become an idol?
Maizy: I love music in general. I grew up playing the violin so it’s always been there. But it wasn’t my original dream. However during… that time… I decided to post a singing cover to social media, which the company found and they scouted me. It was a bit of an internal debate but I decided to go ahead with it. I’m thankful I gave it a chance
Question 6: Who are your role models if you have any?
Maizy: Ah right… So the idols I mentioned earlier were SinB and Eunha from GFRIEND. I really like GFRIEND, the song cover I did was of Rough *chuckles* I also like RO5EY and Enchantress quite a bit. I actually went to the Enchantress concert this year with Moonseo and Yuxi-Unnie. But… ah never mind I’ll let her tell you about it *winks*. But yes, GFRIEND for me, VIVIZ too now
Question 7: When you’re not working, what do you like to do with your time?
Maizy: Hmm… I like to read, scrapbook, play with my cats back home. I miss my cats so much. My cats are called Salgu, Podo and Ddalgi… they are so precious. When I go back home I will show you them. But yeah, I like quiet and peaceful activities, nothing too intense
Question 8: What is one major thing you want to experience by 2024?
Maizy. I want to see someone post on social media that Reveily is their favourite group *laughs*. That’s it really I’m not picky. But it's still good to have a goal however small it is
Well that was my introduction video. I hope you enjoyed getting to know me better. Please give our debut lots of support when it comes out. Thank you!
