Sori reveals Hyuna and Minzy as her favorite dancers

After attempting her first variety show as a part of the G7 crew on “Invincible Youth“, Sori has returned with her latest track, “You’re Not My Style.”
Even as she performed impressive breakdance moves on the program, viewers didn’t have the slightest clue  as to who she was. With her new album release, Sori is determined to “make this album my representative and hit song.”
“I wanted to just perform my comeback stage feeling at ease and truly enjoying it. How can anyone feel 100% satisfied with their own stage? It’s always going to be a bit lacking no matter what.”
Sori claims her true colors to be of a hip hop style, having debuted with a powerful, boyish image. For this album, however, she’s opted for a girlier image. “I tried to restrict myself as much as possible. Most of my previous choreography required big movements, but I tried to cut that back this time around. My body wasn’t used to it, so it was extremely difficult. After a while, I started to learn how to move with emotion without having to dance as hard as I used to. I feel like that was an upgrade for me.”

Sori’s also a rumored fitness addict, and her latest addiction is a type of exercise called ‘Crossfit.’ She first came across it after being introduced to Wheesung, and she’s now recommending it to others herself.  ”It’s a type of exercise that American police officers and firemen train with. It hasn’t been that long since it became popular in Korea. It helps your stamina and weight loss. I try to stimulate the competitive side in me to train harder.”
Her excessive love for fitness also unfortunately led to her injuring her back. After experiencing severe back pain, Sori visited her doctor and was diagnosed with laxity of the facet joints. “If I don’t use my back, it’s fine, but it hurts a lot when I do. It gets a bit better when I receive physical therapy and shots, but it’s not like I can give up dancing or exercising.”
When asked whether she’d like to give other dance genres besides breakdance and hip hop a try, she answered, “I’d like to try songs that accentuate your cuteness like Hyori’s ‘U Go Girl’ and ‘Ten Minute.’ When I was young, I wanted to hurry up and get older to look stronger, but now it’s the opposite. I’d like to be younger and look cute (laughter).”
Sori also once rejected the offer to be 2NE1’s dance instructor. On the topic of idol girl groups that caught her attention, Sori revealed, “I think there’s at least one member in each girl group that is good at dancing.”
When asked to pick specifically, Sori answered, “Hyuna’s young but she dances with emotions. She’s able to exude a kind of sexiness that even older dancers can’t express. And Minzy must’ve received her grandmother’s talent, because she’s really a daring one. They’re both very talented, I’d love to teach them breakdancing one day.”
