– Around 2020, Suhyun confessed that she was experiencing a slump, in which she almost considered retirement, and suffered from insomnia as a result.

– At the time of DINOSAUR’s release, she got Chanhyuk to promise that this song would not be performed live due to its high pitch and difficult vocal technique. However, due to its surging popularity in later years, DINOSAUR has eventually become a staple for their performance setlists.
– In 2023, there were several instances where Suhyun jokingly punched or kicked Chanhyuk, in revenge for him making her sing DINOSAUR so many times, essentially breaking his initial promise. Suhyun later revealed that she had not found it difficult to sing DINOSAUR at all as her skills improved; her kicking her brother was because she wanted to do it. (Source)

As a result, she often lies to him by exaggerating the price of her purchase. (Source)
