DIA's leaderSeungheeshowed off her slim figure in a solo photo shoot with 'International bnt'!  Whether she looks innocent and sweet with long double braids or more edgy in black, street casual attire, she manages to pull everything off with style and personal flair.


In the interview, she said,"Honestly, I dreamed of becoming an announcer, so I studied even more.  While seeing a lot of celebrities from Gwangju likeMoon Geun YoungandPark Shin Hyedebuting, I had a dream of becoming an actress." Looks like she had a lot of dreams.  Now she's a singer!




Regarding the title of DIA beingT-ara's younger sister group, Seunghee said,"Rather than feeling burdened about the title, I did feel burdened about the high expectations from the company.  Because we have yet to garner as much popularity as T-ara, we feel the title is excessive."


She was asked about what advantage sets her apart from others, so she said,"I'm a celebrity who really studies a lot.  Although it's been only four years since debut, I'm not satisfied as a rookie and am working hard to learn even more."


As for role models, she choseKim Sun Young, Ra Mi Ran,andHwang Suk Jung.  In relation to being a leader of the group, she revealed she felt a great responsibility and resulting burden.  "In order for the other members to not be shaken, I believe it is my duty to hold onto them,"she relayed.  


She also talked about being in 'Producer' as a member of Pinky4, stating,"The reason I stuck the audition was that during the improv acting, I cried a lot, and the director, watching my acting, told me, 'It seems like you're saying what you really want to say,'"and revealed that she actually had been sad while acting as a part of Pinky4 because it was based on a real story.  She then said she next wanted to be in a Chinese historical drama. 


Seunghee choseHa Ji Wonas her role model in acting, saying she wanted to work with her.  She also said she had likedRyu Joon YeolandLee Dong Hwieven before their 'Reply 1988' fame.  As for variety, she chose 'Youth Over Flowers.'  


Regarding the title shedoes want, she chose "jack of all trades," saying that she wanted to be good at singing, MC-ing, and more likeEXID's Hani.
