Solo artist G.NA is a Canadian-born Korean, so back before she debuted, the artist mostly communicated in English. That all changed when she came over to solo to nurture her singing career dreams, and found that she had some difficulties with the language. During her debut days, G.NA's Korean was slightly unarticulated, but fans have noticed that through her comeback promotions for "BLACK & WHITE", she's been showing off her improved language skills. So what's the secret to her success? G.NA revealed, "When I was watching dramas like SBS's "You're Beautiful", I couldn't laugh at the scenes that others were laughing at. I think there was a huge gap in the culture, as I wondered why people were talking about these topics or why everyone was laughing at these parts. It was frustrating, and I thought, "Why isn't it funny to me?" She continued, "I honestly rewinded one scene over and over until I understood it. Even if it wasn't anything important, I needed to know a lot of conversational Korean. In that area, the members of my company were a big help." G.NA then explained that her Cube Entertainment labelmates encouraged her at every opportunity. "If I see them inside the company building, we talk a lot and 4minute would compliment me by saying things like "Unni, you improved a lot in your Korean",which gave me a lot of confidence. Yoseob and Kikwang would help me spell in Korean. If I write something wrong, they would say "Nuna, this isn't it" and I would play along saying, "Ah, it isn't?". Every time we see each other, they would ask me questions like "Nuna, how would you write this? or "What's the right way?" They've been a great help." She also added, "My first worry was always saying something wrong in Korean or not being able to understand Korean well. Also, because of my straight-forward personality, the way I would express myself have caused misunderstandings with some people. However, I've changed the way, and now I say to myself, "I should try this" or "I should ask if I don't know." I'm practicing a lot by following through with this." G.NA is currently sweeping the upper charts of online music sites with "BLACK & WHITE." Source: Sports Chosun via Daum
