SISTAR’s Dasom told a funny episode about fire at their dorm. At a recent press conference in Seoul at the Hyatt Hotel, Dasom revealed, “Members enjoy late snack often, and while eating a late night snack one day, we smelled smoke. However, we thought a fried dumpling was getting cooked, and didn’t care much. However, the smell got worse, and the members started looking for the source of the smell. The smell was coming out from the new oven, and it was found that Soyu turned it on without realizing it.”

She continued, “There was a manual inside the oven, and it was on fire, and as soon as we opened the oven, the smoke filled up the kitchen. Such an unexpected situation showed each members’ character. I panicked and got almost frozen on the spot, and ended up opening the window and yelled ‘Help!’. Soyu, who caused the fire, calmly brought a glass of water and killed the fire.” However, while talking about Bora’s reaction, Bora and Dasom told two different stories. Dasom said, “Bora was so scared and didn’t do anything,” but Bora said, “I was helping putting the fire off with Soyu.” Hyorin’s reaction was the funniest, and it is said that she was excited and started taking photos with her cell phone. Hyorin said, “It wasn’t even a fire. It was a small flame. That was a lot of fun.”

Honestly, my thoughts were frozen" "Since Eun Ji Won sunbaenim looks young, I had not much worries. But rather I had worries about how I should act infront of sunbaenim " "Luckily I took on the role of a Busan girl. Since my hometown is in Busan, I am confident of my saturi acting. Not even in my dreams have I thought of being able to be a singer and an actress. I am just moving on and holding on to my dreams as a vocal trainer... it's really fascinating" and she laughed.
