Jung Yuji said, "You know how if one member of the group gains attention, then the rest of the group members also gain attention, right?"
She continued, "Actually, a lot of opportunities were given to me to make me and my group shine. But I always felt like I couldn't live up to their expectations. I felt sorry to my fellow members and agency staff for that."
She resumed, "At that time, I had doubts about myself. I kept thinking, 'Do I deserve to be loved?' I really didn't like myself then. I spent a great amount of time trying to enhance my singing skills, because I thought singing was the only thing I can pretty much prove myself to be good."

Jung Yuji said, "When I was feeling lost, I happened to somehow start doing musical as one of my new agency actors was doing it. That was the very first time I ever got paid for my work."
She went on, "It's not easy for girl groups to make money when not publicly very known. I didn't make any money as BESTie. Not even 10 won. I'm just happy now that I can make my own money while doing what I like."
BESTie was formed in July 2013, and the group officially disbanded in October 2018; Jung Yuji works as a theater actress now.
