Brave Girls went through a difficult time as they spent many years without gaining much popularity.
Even when the girls were losing hope and thinking about giving up this path, there was one person who kept his trust and supported the girl group with all his heart.
Brave Girls recently appeared on the new episode of 'Point of Omniscient Interfere' and shared how Brave Brothers (Kang Dong Chul) supported them all this time. In the episode that aired on April 17th, the Brave Girls shared that they had sent a long letter to Brave Brothers right before they belatedly skyrocketed into fame.
Member Minyoung explained, "After talking with the members, I sent our CEO a long message that's like a letter. I explained, 'we're getting older and are now in our thirties, but we don't have a career. And our bank accounts are continuing to face overdrafts.' We still have lingering feelings for this work, but the members are thinking to each go our own separate ways. I think you need to make a decision.' All we could do was part-time jobs."
Yujeong added, "Actually, the agency is paying for our dorm and pays for our food, but we didn't have money for basic livelihood. So we told our CEO that we didn't have any money. So he told us, 'Don't worry, I'll give you money. We'll also prepare the next album so let's have hope.' He actually gave us allowance from his personal bank for a year." Yujeong actually revealed that Brave Brothers provided an allowance for the girls for a year and sent them money every month without forgetting.
As much as Brave Brothers believed in the girls, the success meant something very special to the producer. During the episode, he visited Brave Girls at their practice studio and was quietly watching them while his eyes turned red.
He explained to the girls that he felt like crying after seeing the members do much better and looked so much happier. He said, "I felt like I was dreaming." Then Brave Brothers brought out four gift bags to give to the girls. He told the managers to bring out the bag and explained that this is the gift that he had promised to give the members if they were to get number 1.
Brave Brothers said that he had picked out the bags himself and gave each member a Chanel bag. The girls unboxed Brave Brother's gift and couldn't help but to smile widely.

So happy for them!
