G-Friend say they're grateful for being compared to Girls' Generation + talk about debuting and dieting

Girls

New girl group G-Friend sat down for an interview for the first time ever since debuting, showing some signs of nerves, which quickly went away as they became more comfortable and talkative. �The youthful six members with an average age of 18 were revealed to have undergone training for at least 1.5 years and at most 5 years not only from their current agency but also from other ones, such as Cube, CJ, Loen, and DSP!


Yerin said, "It hasn't hit me yet that we debuted. �We don't have a cell phone or laptop, so we don't go on the internet much. �Once in a while, we go on a company computer to look at music sites, and we wondered if the G-Friend that would rank [on the music site] was really us. �Everything is still very fascinating."


Umji said, "When we were doing the pre-recording for a music show, our fans came for which I was very grateful. �There are no chances for me to express my gratitude except to write on the fan cafe and wave my hands in the car when we're going somewhere. �I want to quickly and intimately greet my fans and share things with them through a fan meeting or fan signing event. �And whenever I see the fans, I think I need to work harder."




In relation to their song and concept reminding everybody of Girls' Generation from the get-go, Sowon and Umji said, "When we first heard the guide for the song 'Glass Bead,' we felt the 90's girl group vibe rather than that of a Girls' Generation song. �We think that showing the image of girls who are young but overflowing with health and vigor is something we can only do at this age. �We wanted to show our energetic and playful side in school, so we tried our best, but it appears to have come off similarly [to Girls' Generation]. �Anyways, we are of course grateful that people thought of Girls' Generation when they saw us. �We think it also makes us feel more responsible to work harder."


They also revealed they dieted since they were trainees, although they were the types to not gain weight. �They ate mostly salads as rice was not allowed, expressing the difficulty of maintaining a diet. �
