■ JO1 award commentary
I think so many miraculous things have happened this year. I made my debut as JO1 and received the award in “2020 MAMA”, which is really like a dream.
I am very grateful to all the fans who always support and love us. We will continue to strive to become a growing JO1 to make our dreams come true. Thanks Mom! Thank you KOREA!
