❝ people often mistaken me as fake person just because i am very loud and is extrovert which made me get a lot of negative comments . it do makes me upset because i've always been my true self and it's just that i was born that way , even though i try to keep quiet my mouth has always something to say . .

i don't want to express or show my sad self to others so i'd give myself a hug and tell that everything will be okay and i have to work hard. just because i carry everything quietly without telling or expressing myself doesn't mean it's not heavy at all and i hope that people can notice that we are also suffering behind the smiles on the camera sometimes. sometimes i would think that what if one day i lost my true self then how can i find it again? will i be okay? or not?❞

Q. What does seventeen mean to you?

❝ they are my home. a family . my youth .
they are like my own family after living together for so long, we've seen each other in our darkest times and have been there for each other and in our vulnerable times too. they are someone that i never want to loose ever in my life because they mean so much too me . like the lyrics goes, they are my home where i can go to and be myself without any judgement. ❞

Q. What does taerin mean to you?

Dino ; ❝ it may sound like i'm sugarcoating but to be honest , taerin noona is like my own mother and my elder sister , she means a lot to me. whenever i am stressed or sad she is the first one i go to and would listen out to me and help me out with whatever i'm going through, gives me emotional support and never fails to check up on me and my health. ❞

Scoups ;

❝ and elder sister , a best friend . ever since we knew each other we were totally the opposite but somehow we got to know each other to the point where our existence started to matter to each other and couldn't imagine ourselves parting ways with her . we started off as a simple trainee mate but ended up being close friends, we'd share our ideas and everything together . taerin is really precious to me and i'd never wanna loose her ever ❞

[ taerin immediately ran down from the stage quickly putting on the oxygen mask for a while to gasp for some air before running to the changing room and changing into the outfit that was prepared for her solo performance . in few minutes she came out ready and the members cheered for her as she will be giving a special cover of 'fine' by taeyeon and ' lonely ' ; the song which she wrote herself and never sang in front of carats at all . the sudden appearance of taerin hyped up the audiences who didn't expect the girl to show up and started indulging themselves deep into the song. ]

"when noona said that she wants to perform lonely, i thought she was joking because she was writing the lyrics while playing around but she eventually finished the song" seungkwan said as he monitor the eldest member on the stage singing the song whole heartedly the verses with wonwoo happily smiling at the corner getting his shirt ready as they all listen to the soulful lyrics of 'lonely'
