In a recent appearance on the popular YouTube channel 'Lee Yong-jin YouTube - Yongtaro', singer Jeon So-mi shared her unique insights into thriving during her 20s.

During the lively episode, host Lee Yong-jin commented on how some dancers have an advantage due to their height, a claim Jeon So-mi readily accepted. "I’m actually quite tall! I was 169cm, but thanks to Pilates, I’ve grown to 173cm," she revealed, surprising everyone with her height boost.

When asked about the effects of Pilates on her height, So-mi explained, "It’s been a while since I’ve practiced Pilates, but I focus on correcting my posture to maximize my height potential in a short time." This has helped her maintain a stage presence that captivates audiences.

Celebrating her decade-long journey in the music industry, Jeon So-mi reminisced about her early days at her agency, where there were just around 15 employees in a small studio. Now, the company boasts 150 employees and even a new building in Itaewon!

Proud of her contributions to the company’s growth, Jeon So-mi humorously remarked, "Isn’t it like a parking lot?" This light-hearted attitude showcased her approachable personality.

Rising to fame as the winner of Mnet's 'Produce 101' in 2016, she became a beloved member of the project group IOI. Since then, she's debuted as a solo artist, recently releasing her second EP, 'Chaotic & Confused', featuring the catchy title track "CLOSER" on the 11th.

With her charisma and talent, Jeon So-mi continues to shine in the K-pop scene, inspiring many young adults navigating their own paths.
