TSUKI opened up about the intense determination she had during her trainee days to make her debut.

On the episode of SBS's 'uh, but like, seriously!' that aired on the 18th, Billlie's TSUKI, who moved to Korea at the age of 13 to become an idol, visited Lee Su-ji's boarding house.

On this day, TSUKI shared, "My original dream was to be a flight attendant. But I had been dancing since I was 4 years old, so my dream changed."

TSUKI, who learned hip-hop from a young age, recalled, "It was different from my image at the time of my debut, so I was told to learn ballet or jazz."

TSUKI, who came to Korea alone at 13, surprised everyone by revealing that she cut off contact with her mother for 6 months because she wanted to master the Korean language.

"I couldn't do anything if I didn't speak Korean. So I told my mom that I felt I needed to study Korean to survive, and asked her to wait until I reached out again," TSUKI said, drawing admiration from the cast.

She also mentioned that Korean has become so natural to her now that even her family members who don't speak the language appear in her dreams speaking Korean, and she even impressed everyone by showing off her Busan dialect.
