During the press conference for her solo debut at Core Contents Media's practice room in Nonhyeondong, Gangnam in Seoul on May 19, Jiyeon touched upon her solo debut, "I was hesitant about the suggestion of making a solo debut because I thought that I don't have enough skill at first, but through my members and Duble Sidekick's support, I was able to gain courage. But to be honest, I still can't sleep well."

She also gave some hints on Hyomin's solo debut as well, "The style of Hyomin's song is the total opposite of mine. Although I can't share many details, she is practicing hard for it. I think we can be of help to each other, so we mentioned a lot of the things we're lacking to each other."

When asked for updates on the Soyeon-Oh Jong Hyuk couple, Jiyeon expressed her jealousy, "I'm quite fond and jealous of the Soyeon-Oh Jong Hyuk couple... After finishing our schedule, I see Soyeon talking on the phone with Oh Jong Hyuk and think, 'Ha, I'm jealous.' All of the little things are what I'm jealous of and look fondly at."

She also elaborated on the reviews she hopes to receive, "I want to be complimented on how hard I practiced and how much effort I put in. I didn't even think about getting #1. I want to receive the compliment, 'You improved a lot from when I see you with T-ara.'"
