EXID appeared on SBS radio program 'Kim Chang Ryul's Old School' on April 28 and Solji, the powerhouse vocalist of the group, talked about her well-deserved win on competitive program 'Mask King,' which led to lots of happy tears.
Kim Chang Ryul asked if she knew she would win. �"I didn't think at all that I would come out in first place," she replied. �"I was nervous because I didn't know who was appearing [on the show]." �In the program, everyone wears a mask to hide their identity for the least amount of bias possible in the result. �
Doubting this a bit, he asked if she really did not know and she assured him, "I didn't know at all. �For security, our staff members even left the latest."
When asked her method for winning, she said, "I think I was lucky. �Also, I think I came off looking very sad . . . I sang the song while [substituting in] my situation. �I think that got relayed to the viewers." �There was definitely passion and a highly personal element to her performances that day. �For singers, it's all about portraying and relaying emotions that people can empathize with, right?

Kim Chang Ryul also said, "You debuted in junior year of high school to cultivate [your skills] and now you're radiant; you said that you fell in love with love instead of singing." She explained, "Thinking of this after hearing LE talk about dating, the thing I fell for is love."
She was asked, "When you sing, do you think about love?" and replied, "I allude to my experiences as I sing. �When I first sing a song, I look at the lyrics, think about it, then sing."
Kim Chang Ryul said, "I heard you want to be a DJ because you want to sing songs [on the radio]." �She explained, "DJs put on the music, but I think it would be nice if they sang once in a while." �That would be awesome to have Solji sing on a radio program as a DJ like ZE:A's Kevin�on 'Arirang'!
